The Holiday Season is intended to give us a break from life’s pressures, a chance to get together with family, friends and loved ones, to reflect on the past year and look forward to a bright new year. However for many, the Holiday season is anything but a holiday often bringing out our darkest issues: loneliness, depression, loss, grief, stress and arguments at home and the work place.
“For some the pressure of being able to afford to buy gifts for loved ones or having to face family members with unresolved issues is just too taxing”, says Patrick Wanis, Life Coach, Human Behavior and Relationship Expert, Author of of “How to Find Happiness” and “Finding GOD –Spiritual Strategies to Help YOU Find Happiness, Fulfillment and Inner Peace.”
So what is the answer? How can we put the “happy” back into the holidays?
Wanis, who has coached various celebrities, reveals the 5 keys to putting happiness back into Happy Holidays:
- Forgive yourself and others for the mistakes you made this year
- Stop seeking other people’s approval
- When people are mad, angry or just plain rude, remember it is about them, not about you
