Staying Spiritually Healthy During the Holidays! - Ep. 128

Plan how to be less stressed this holiday season: 1. Take 15-20 minutes and sit down with a pen and paper and list out all the ways you tend to get stressed during the holidays. Ask for God’s wisdom before you start to be honest and not get stressed out by writing out all the ways you get stressed out. 2. Next, identify where the major stressors are that are leading to all that stress. Invite God into this part of the process and ask how important the stressor is. Write a 1 by the most stressful experiences, a 2 by moderate stressful experiences, and a 3 by the least stressful experiences. If they are all a 1, that’s okay. 3. Last, for each stressor, pray for wisdom and then ask yourself this question: “How could I creatively and assertively manage this stressor in such a way that it doesn’t turn into stress in the first place?”
