Less Stress for the Holiday Season

Speaker:                 Let’s talk about the holiday!  What do people get stressed about the holidays?  Any ideas?  Money!  Shopping for what?  For any gift—

Running through the mall and for your loved one, does any gift going to make it?  Is it going to do?  I’ve got you something! (Dr. Lowe hands a crumpled piece of paper to an audience member) Right?  We don’t want that!  So we get stressed because we wanted to let them have the perfect Christmas, the perfect gift and it can all be done without having to fight traffic, with all of these other things that you want to do, right?

And then, we go along we don’t want to worry about the shipping.  Did you guys forget where I live?  What’s the deal with that or if you start in July, then you worry about something else when you get to December.

So we’re going to talk about some of the ideas on stress.  I am going to talk about how to beat stress, I’m going to talk about how to manage stress, no we’re not.  We’re going to talk about how to overcome stress!

One thing that causes me the most stress in my life is trying to manage and beat things that I can’t manage or beat!  That’s like managing time. Can you actually manage time?  It moves with or without you!  You can try and manage yourself within the time, but try and manage and budget other people within that time is a lot harder, isn’t it?  Try and manage your kid’s schedules, getting everybody where they need to be when they need to be there.  It causes stress.

So let’s talk about some fun ways to beat stress!  First of all, let’s talk about the different types of stress!  What types of stress are there?  Let’s talk about exactly what kinds of stress during the holidays, some of the main causes—it might be in-laws that causes stress?

You don’t cause any stress—
