Holiday Stress and Anxiety Prevention

As we get close to the end of the year, some of us may struggle with the holiday season. Homewood Health has provided an article containing information and guidance to support you. Read the full article at: holiday stress and anxiety prevention.

Included in the article are the following seven techniques to help alleviate anxiety or stress:

  1. Express yourself
  2. Look on the bright side
  3. Take a moment just to breath
  4. Get enough sleep
  5. Exercise. Even 20 minutes a day can help
  6. Plan ahead and prioritize
  7. Watch what you eat, drink and indulge in

Remember that Homewood Health is available at 1-800-663-1142 every day of the year, including Christmas Day. And the service is completely confidential.
