With the holidays around the corner, we’re officially in the calm before the storm.
The thing is: We don’t have to lose ourselves in the holiday frenzy.
This time of year can be restful and relaxing if we simply prioritize more sleep and less stress.
Journaling by a glowing fire?

ways to squeeze in that you-time before the New Year.

2.
Journal next to a crackling fire to let off some steam.
As hectic as holidays can be, they come with plenty of moments and rituals to celebrate.
Create a festive ambience for yourself, grab yourjournal, and claim some much-deserved you time.
Gift yourself an earlier bedtime.
Nothing will benefit us more this winter than our prized eight hours of sleep.
And yet, how often do we stay up past bedtime wrapping presents or sipping spicedcocktails?
Commit to a regular sleep schedule, or even bump your bedtime back 30 minutes.

Do some restorative yoga under holiday lights.
When our schedule gets crammed, exercise and self-care are often the first things to go.
Break up the busy pace by treating yourself to a little restorative yoga.
Even better: Do it under twinkling holiday lights.
Whether it’s knotted shoulders or tight hips, we tend to store stress in the body.
Schedule time for stillness.

Use these moments to nap, meditate, or sip a warming cup of tea.
