Stress Less® this Thanksgiving
Our annual holiday is upon us and
millions of people are traveling by air, train, bus, and car to celebrate this
festive occasion that can be wrought with the normal stress and conflict among
families. This year’s election is an added time bomb for dissension.
Unfortunately, there are an estimated
26-45% of the US population who do not have family to celebrate with and suffer
the indignities of loneliness and isolation which can lead to mental and physical
issues. It is a sad state of affairs and needs our attention since our
population is growing older and couples, friends, and family will be dying
leaving the living sometimes in isolation.
Life can be unfair and one of the
best ways to face the Thanksgiving and Christmas Holiday seasons are to count your
blessings for the family and social network you do have and to continue to seek
out more people connections. Be nice and polite even if you have to grit your
teeth, because we are all social animals that need to belong and connect with
other humans to live a positive life.
Live well, eat well, and be well with
your network of family and friends. It is just plain good for your mental and
physical health.
