Holiday Self Care

 

During the holiday months, we are most likely to be socializing more, sleeping less, and eating less healthily than we ususally do. Here are some small ways to incorporate self-care this season. Katie Weber

PROTECT YOUR SLEEP

"Few things consistently mess with people's emotional and physical health like chronic sleeplessness and poor sleep." Psychology Today

  • Diffuse diffuse diffuse! At night and in preparation for bedtime. We love lavender, frankincense, cedarwood, vetiver to support sleep.

  • Cut back on caffeine after 2pm.

  • No screen time at least 1 hour before bed.

EXERCISE DAILY

  • 10 min a day can trigger the same hormones targeted by antidepressant medications. Even if time is limited, getting outside and taking a walk goes a long way.
