Stress: the holiday Grinch

Posted under Lifehacks

I probably don’t have to tell anyone about how the Holidays can be more stressful. The Official Google Blog mentions some of the risks of this stress such as high blood pressure, cholesterol, skin disorders, and many more.

They also have a few tips to help you deal with the stress.

“Make a list and priotitize. It’s OK if the holiday cards don’t go out until 1/2…07.
Exercise. No, it’s not the answer to everything, but it has been shown to decrease the stress hormones.
Take a vacation (break with tradition! A year-end getaway might help limit stress). If not a vacation, at least take a stroll, or take deep breaths while counting to 10.
Hugging for 20 seconds has been shown to reduce blood pressure.”
