A Christmas Break For You:
Ideas To Help You Schedule A Little 'Me' Time Amid The Christmas Chaos

By Sherrie Le Masurier

Especially at Christmas when we have a tendency to feel stressed and overwhelmed, it is important to schedule in a little ‘me’ time. Here are some ideas to help you find a little ‘me’ time amid the Christmas chaos.

Go For A Walk

Sharpen your senses with a brisk walk. The fresh air will wake you up, giving you that extra burst of energy you need to finish some of the tasks at hand.

Light A Candle

Enjoy a few minutes of peace and quiet. Let the flicker of the candlelight soothe your soul and revive your spirit.

Listen To Music

Put in a CD or tune in the radio to a favorite station. Take a momentary time out by losing yourself in the beat or use the gentle rhythm as a backdrop to the snowflakes falling outside your window.

Begin A Christmas Journal

Write down some memories – the good and the bad, the events you attend and the special moments you’ve shared with loved ones.
