By Dr. Molly Cowan Your mother-in-law is throwing repeated verbal snowballs at you for your store-bought cookies and your cluttered family room. “Funcle” Ray has poured himself one glass of eggnog too many. Your favorite toddler just spiked a 103-degree fever and has turned an un-festive shade of green. You still have no idea whether the off-brand gifts you wrapped will make you look like a penny-pinching Grinch. And the neighbor just gave you an unexpected gift when you don’t have one in return. And don’t even think about those bloated credit card balances and red-letter due dates. When the holidays turn into your own personal “Age of Anxiety,” my fellow psychologists and I offer six simple go-to’s to restore some semblance of a “holly jolly” holiday and bring about peace in your corner of the world. These steps can help to squash your inner Scrooge and skate through squabbles and stress: Control the controllables Frequently, we set high expectations to make things “perfect” at this time of year, but many variables exist beyond our control, including traffic, weather, illness, and more. To avoid setting ourselves up for failure with the unreasonable pursuit of perfection, focus on the things we actually have control over and try to make the best of that burned appetizer, broken package, and other things that go wrong. Group things in manageable chunks Make a list of tasks you want to accomplish and then choose a few to do each day. “Chunking” helps lower stress and control last-minute panic buying. Try to maintain a somewhat consistent routine With the flurry of activities, it’s tempting to stay up late, sleep in, and eat and drink all those signature holiday treats that come our way, but it’s important not to stray too far from our normal routines. Making sure to drink plenty of water, get plenty of rest, and avoid overdoing it with food and alcohol is important to keep us functioning at our best. No one wants to battle through a holiday hangover in a crowded super-store or high-decibel classroom party. Reframe expectations Is having an impeccably set table with all-matching dinnerware important to you? If it is, great! Go big! If it’s not, it’s okay to say you don’t want to spend blocks of precious time laboring alone at the kitchen sink, rinsing, scrubbing and stacking. Choose to serve holiday dinner on paper plates. Do you enjoy sending Christmas cards to friends and family, or do you feel like it’s mandatory work? If it doesn’t bring you joy to write out cards, think about alternatives that fit your life better and still achieve the same goal. Send out holiday emails or texts, or better yet, plan a get-together in the new year. Set boundaries Most of us have family members we’re not looking forward to seeing at the holidays, or at least one topic of conversation we’d like to avoid. When Uncle Joe starts asking why you’re still single or Aunt Jane launches into political minefields, it’s ok to set a limit and say you want to talk about something else or to change topics (“How about them Eagles?”) Take time for yourself It’s easy to become overstimulated and overwhelmed at this time of year, so it’s important to take a little time to recharge your battery in between checking off every item on your “to-do” list. Skip a party and binge-watch your favorite movie if it brings you joy. You don’t have to be Martha Stewart on steroids at the holidays. You can enjoy the gifts that matter most, and start the new year off with holiday memories that uplift and endure.
