Holiday Goodies: Plan Ahead & Leave the Guilt at the Door

The holiday season summons two traditions that are better left alone: overconsumption and then guilt about that consumption.

Reign in Your Feasting & Toss the Guilt Out the Window.

Yes, your grandmother’s annual gingerbread cookies smell like Christmas and taste like heaven. Of course, your mother makes the perfect holiday sugar cookie and caramel apple pie. Never would you pass up Aunt Diane’s frozen apricot brandy slushies, Aunt Kathy’s homemade buckeyes, or Aunt Maryann’s triple-layer cookie bars.

An avalanche of health-chokehold-situations goes hand-in-hand with the holidays. The trick is to embrace the holidays while ensuring your health, mental and physical, doesn’t take a two-month nosedive for the umpteenth year in a row?

Solution: Simply ask yourself if the moment you want to jump off the healthy-choice-train is a photo-worthy moment.

Align Photo-Worthy Moments with Moments of Indulgence

Imagine you and your partner reach a monumental anniversary. You plan a trip, you book a flight, and you arrange for a sunset dinner. In this circumstance, you likely wouldn’t take a picture while you’re meeting with the babysitter to discuss your children’s routines. Nor are you likely to take a scrapbook-worthy photo while packing your suitcase and cleaning your kitchen.

Tis’ the Season to be Stressed: Fa La La La Laaa La La La La

Do not underestimate holiday stress.  

Although Halloween and Trick-or-Treat paid a visit in October, most people do not overly stress about a holiday that asks for one day of celebration and leaves a trail of happily-exhausted children in its wake. Now November, on the other hand, is a different story. Lists for Santa find their way to penny-strapped parents. Expectations of homemade deliciousness like Grandma made fall upon shoulders. The desire to create moments worth remembering take hold, while remembering those who no longer sit at the Thanksgiving table tear at hearts.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD): More Than ‘Winter Blues’

“Research indicates that daylight saving time can increase the symptoms of seasonal depression for some people.” This discovery is unfortunate since daylight saving time occurs throughout the majority of the U.S. and Canada.

Seasonal depression, also known as seasonal affective disorder (SAD), is a “type of depression related to changes in seasons.” Typically symptoms begin in autumn and continue through winter. Even when people are aware of SAD, too many people chalk up their symptoms to “winter blues” and refrain from actively addressing those symptoms,
