158 - How to Deal With All the Holiday Emotions - Hurt, Sadness, Happiness, & Loneliness

The holidays are a time where we think we are going to have so much fun, memories to be made, trees to be decorated, carols singing all around, Christmas music aka Mariah Carey, Queen of Christmas playing in our home, the smell of yummy treats, Christmas parties to go to, gifts to buy, presents to open, traditions etc.

But to be honest, how many times have the holidays come and you feel sad, confused, frustrated, down, alone, frustrated, uneventful, upset with family, etc.?

We get it, that is normal for most people.

• Approximately 755 of overall respondents reported that the holidays contribute to feeling sad or dissatisfied and 68% financially strained. 66% have experienced loneliness, 63% too much pressure and 57% unrealistic expectations. 55% found themselves remembering happier times in the past contrasting with the present, while 50% were unable to be with loved ones.

WHY? 

During the holidays there is an increase in demands, stress, family issues, being unable to manage expectations, increase in number of activities, lack of sleep, increase in sugar, weakened immune system, and I bet you can think of a few more reasons. I think of arguments over what house to have Christmas at or the money issues with presents, or even the fact that you are eating more sugary/fatty foods and not fixing your gut.
