The holidays are meant to be a time of family and fellowship. When we remember the Reason for the Season, we may be motivated to pause, reflect, and cherish our time with family and friends. Or, we may feel anxious and exhausted. Both may be true.
When you see a commercial reminding us the holidays are upon us, do you celebrate or cringe? The holidays are often a dichotomy of feelings. We love family time (or not), we enjoy finding the perfect gift for our loved ones (or not), and we cherish every moment (or we can’t wait for the holidays to be over.)
Knowing when and how to set healthy boundaries may eliminate much of the stress and anxiety we experience during the holidays. The art of setting boundaries takes practice and diligence; the goal is to be clear and precise. As a wise woman once said, “I didn’t say it would be easy; I said it would be worth it.”
