Cadenmccallum,
We’ve all seen the movies of the picture
perfect holiday dinner. If only this were reality! Unfortunately, many of us
have family issues that can make holiday parties a stressful event forcing us
to go back to some of our old unwanted behaviours or fill the day with horrible
emotions.
To help make the holiday a happier time of
year try to compose a list with your family of all of the things that have to
be done to have a happy and stress free day. Include things that have to be
done, what would be nice and what you can live without. Once you’ve created
this list, try delegating tasks amongst family members. Some people like to
cook, others clean, kids usually love wrapping presents and decorating. Spread
the weight of the seasons work to all family members.
If family members don’t get along, remember
that you are not responsible for everyone’s happiness. Try to encourage team
work to make the day as pleasurable as possible.
