What if we could make this Holiday Season less stressful, more fun, and actually be able to enjoy ourselves, appreciate our families, and focus on what were grateful for in a genuine way? Below are some important holiday stress-management tips I teach people in my books, articles, speeches, and workshops. Id love to share some of these helpful ideas with your audience for this Holiday Season. Tips for a low-stress, positive Holiday Season:
Be yourself dont try to be who you think you should be with your family, friends, in-laws, or guests just be you!
Focus on the good stuff choose to focus on the things you like and appreciate about your family members, instead of obsessing about the things that annoy or upset you
Do what you want to do think about what would be fun for you and your immediate family to do for Thanksgiving and communicate this to everyone else (in-laws, extended family, etc.)
Let go of past resentments holding a grudge is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die just let things go
Write thankful cards take some time to write cards to the people in your life (those you will see this Holiday Season and others) and let them know what you appreciate about them
Go with the flow and have fun whatever you choose to do this Holiday Season, be flexible and choose to enjoy yourself
Make it easy do whatever you can for yourself and those around you to make the planning, food preparation, clean up, and the whole Holiday Season experience as easy and stress-free as possible
Count your blessings remember that even in the midst of the stress and frustration of these times and the holiday season, Thanksgiving really is a time for us to reflect on what were grateful fortake some time this Holiday Season to count your blessings, even if it seems a little forced or cheesy
Life Changes Show
Come and join the conversation about what's going on and what we can do together about it, with it, and for it. We have the choice, we have the power. We can do magic if we just believe!
A show about the changes going on in us, to us, around us, and because of us. Therefore, it's technically a show about "Everything," only with a how to make it better, see it better, be better.
In the show, there is talk about, and with, people who have either been through major changes, are helping others with major changes, or people who are changing the world for the better in a major way.
The show is a one-hour talk show format with a monologue by the host, a 30 minute interview with a guest of note, capped by a "Producer's Wrap" segment, in which Filippo and Co-Host Mark Laisure, and sometimes surprise guests, bring it all home for the listeners in a sometimes humorous and sometimes touching, but always entertaining conversation.
