HEAD OFF HOLIDAY ANXIETY WITH THESE STRESS BUSTERS
What should be a relaxing time with friends, family, and football can turn out to be anxious days with too much to do. You can’t will stress away, but you can head it off before it gets to you.

Two keys to remaining in control:
Keep a positive attitude and decide that you are going to have an enjoyable time no matter what happens.

Don’t take on more than you have to. Order some of your gifts over the Internet or give gift cards or cash. Use gift bags instead of wrapping presents. Buy holiday foods instead of baking. Skip some of the decorating, especially outdoors. If you’re really pressed for time, take everyone out for Christmas dinner.

* On the job, get as much done as you can before the last week before Christmas. Encourage others whose work you depend on to do the same. Make a must-do list and a should-do list. If time is short, some of the should-dos can wait.
* If you are traveling, allow extra time on the road or at the airport. Travel light.
* Get enough rest. Don’t eat a lot of food, drink alcohol, or exercise within three hours of bedtime.
* Limit the caffeine. It interferes with sleep and makes you nervous.
* Put your New Year’s resolutions into perspective. Skip resolutions that you load with self-blame for what you haven’t accomplished.

Make just one or two resolutions and be specific with some time deadlines involved. Decide what the obstacles involved will be and how you will overcome them. Then be a little easy on yourself. Even if you don’t reach all your goals, you’ll be better off for having tried.
