It’s Not All Jolly

It’s Not All Jolly

Posted by Lifestyle Lucy | 14 December 2017 | Health & Fitness, Magazine

This time of year is very exciting with all the Christmas decorations up around London, the Christmas carols, the movies, the ice skating, the snow, the sharing of gifts and the over indulging at countless Christmas parties throughout the month – not to mention Christmas day itself.

However there is also so much decadence leading up to Christmas and for many peopl it is all go, go, go!

So it’s also a time of year that can bring a lot of anxiety to people and I can totally see why. The pressure to go out shopping and buy numerous people the perfect presents, the social demands, the family feuds, the deadlines, trying to get your tree up AND decorated (perfectly of course) does inevitably and frequently lead to a lack of self-care not to mention a high chance of catching the dreaded seasonal cold that is going around London this December.

Maintaining our health over the Christmas period is far more important for our mental health than it is for our physical appearance. Keep your body fit and healthy as well as your mind balanced. Try and take 10 minutes a day to yourself to press the pause button – whether it be doing some meditation, getting some fresh air and going for a walk, having a stretching session or even just listening to some music. Do something for you to prevent yourself from burning out, from getting stressed and feeling anxious.

So here is a friendly reminder to try not to get too overwhelmed by all the events and pressure and to also be mindful this Christmas of not only yourself but of the people that surround you because it’s certainly not all jolly for everyone.

Learn to embrace the good with the bad, because the magical day of Christmas will be gone within the blink of an eye. And have a fun one!
