To slow down, I have a nice cup of tea and listen to Christmas songs on the radio.

Usually pure exhaustion makes me slow down during the holidays, but I do like to take some time for events that are spiritually/mentally/culturally inspiring. Something like a Christmas concert or a play, or just packing my nieces into the car, putting on some good carols, and driving through the neighborhood to see Christmas lights will lift my spirits and warm my heart.

When you walk in the mall and smell the christmas smells, the roasted almonds and the cinnamon, etc. The music is cheerful that always puts me in a great mood. The most important thing though is when I don’t have to work and it is snowing outside and you do not have to go anywhere. You can play in the snow with your kids, sit inside with a good book or movie and a cup of hot coco!

When I need to slow down during the holidays, I love to make myself a wonderful cup of hot chocolate with a candy cane (and cookies!). I put on some soft Christmas music and sit in front of the Christmas tree. Instant relaxation!

What slow me down is getting a cup of egg nog with some cookies sitting down reading or telling stories with friends and family.

One word: Yoga! It’s not only helps you calm down and slow down during the holidays, but keeps you that way all year!

Everyone should do it — the world would be so much happier!!

To slow down, I try to do one “Holiday” thing a day, whether it’s decorating, shopping, spending time with family watching a Christmas movie, reading the TRUE Christmas story, Giving to other organizations, or just starring at Christmas lights. It’s really important that I don’t forget about the real REASON for the SEASON and keep that before me at all times. That really helps me stay focused and slow down!
