‘Tis the season for family, festivity, and food—lots of food. The holidays dish up a triple whammy of wintry weather, irresistible foods, and stress, which can cause even the strongest-willed person to reach for another festive goodie.
While the notion of enjoying “healthy holidays” has a nice ring to it, reaching that goal can be very challenging. Between the endless social gatherings and the to-do lists that seem longer than Santa’s list of names, balancing the season’s obligations often means that our diets take a backseat until the New Year.
The holidays are often the busiest time of the year for a lot of people which can make it hard to stay mentally and physically healthy. With a little intentionality and understanding, you can fully enjoy the holidays while keeping your health in mind.
