Have the stress of the holiday season hit your wallet and your health? Do you sometimes feel like it is a bit too hard of a balancing act?

The "Holiday Hustle" has officially begun and this is a great time to refocus on our health. With all of the parties, shopping, etc it is easy to lose focus and we all know when we are not nourishing our bodies we actually increase stress.

Here are some of our favorite tips to keep your health in check during the "Holiday Hustle."

Plan ahead. If you know you will be out and about all day bring snacks with you and make sure to make nutrition a priority. Skipping meals and snacks can lead to more stress and low energy. Let's fuel properly for the fun!

Schedule activity and make this a priority. This may mean scheduling personal training sessions or literally having "work out" on your daily schedule. Activity is not only healthy for us physically but mentally as well.

Get social. Have a strong network of friends and family you enjoy talking with and spending time. Socializing is shown to increase our brain health and who couldn't use this. Here is a link to a great article from Psychology Today on this: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/living-mild-cognitive-impairment/201606/the-health-benefits-socializing

We hope our tips help you manage this most wonderful time of the year.

Happy Holidays!
