Simple Tips For A Healthier Thanksgiving
Many people find themselves overindulging in less-than-healthy Thanksgiving fare (or enjoying too much of it) and regretting it. If you're looking for a healthier way to enjoy the holiday, or are looking for simple ways to live longer and get healthier all year long, read on! You'll learn about our free Healthy Monday newsletter, and find simple and actionable tips for enjoying Thanksgiving in a healthier way this year.
| It's Not Too Late To Give Up Your "Should"s!
In case you missed it earlier this month (or if you saw it and would like an invitation to celebrate again), November 1st is "Give Up Your 'Should's Day," which is a wonderfully liberating observance. However, you really don't need to wait until next year to take ownership of this idea. In fact, going into the holiday season, perhaps every day contain less stress if there were fewer "should"s attached! If you're wondering if you could relieve stress by letting go of expectations you have of yourself that really aren't serving you, I invite you to read more about how to loosen your expectations of yourself, and just enjoy. You really should give it a try. (Sorry, I couldn't resist!)
