75.| How to prioritize your mental & physical health during the holidays!

Welcome back to The Balanced Nurse Podcast🎉 The holiday season is upon us, and with our already busy shifts, the added stress of gift buying and the quest for guilt-free indulgences can be a lot. In today's episode, we go over some tips on prioritizing our mental and physical health during this time of the year! Things like...

Setting boundaries: Gift buying can strain not just your creativity but your finances too. Consider a family conversation or try a secret Santa to ease the load. And if shopping stress is real, online options are there—just tread carefully. 💸🎅🛍️

Time Management: Managing our time is key during these bustling times. Ever heard of the Power Hour? It's a game-changer for tackling your to-do list.

Connecting with support when needed—whether it's through therapy or a relaxing girls' night. Sometimes, talking it out or unwinding with friends is the best medicine. 🛋️👭

& When it comes to diet and exercise, planning it out with the ABCs of planning. Bring a tasty and healthy dish to the potluck—it's a win-win. Make staying healthy fun, and treat your routines like non-negotiable appointments. 🥗🏋️‍♀️⏰

And as a bonus reminder: laugh, have fun, and be kind to yourself during this festive season. You deserve it! 😄🌟

So there you have it! Balancing health during the holidays is about setting boundaries, finding joy in the festivities, and treating yourself with kindness. Until next time, happy holidays! 🎄✨
