How to Stay Healthy During the Holidays

• Get adequate sleep, even if your routine is interrupted by guests and/or travel, maintain a regular sleep schedule as much as possible.

• Eat healthy, nutritious foods. Avoid getting into the fast-food routine because you're busy.

• Take a high-potency multivitamin if you are not already doing so. You may want to take extra vitamin C to help boost your immune system.

• Avoid taking on too much. You can't do everything, and you will become stressed and fatigued if you try to.

• Attend the parties you really want to go to, not the ones that you just feel obligated to attend.

• Streamline your shopping. Use the Internet or mail-order catalogs. Shopping from home will save you energy. In addition, you will avoid crowded stores packed with all types of germs.

• Keep up your exercise program.

• Avoid excessive drinking. You may end up with a hangover and/or feel drained and fatigued.

• Make private time. Relax, read, take a bath - time for yourself will rejuvenate and refresh you. Contributor
