Christmas is meant to be a fun, happy, relaxing time... Right?? Well it's MEANT to be but for a lot of people the lead up to the big day is anything BUT fun! It doesn't need to be that way, in fact it CAN be really enjoyable and lots of fun if you plan well in advance and not leave everything to the last minute.
Here's some tips on how you can ENJOY Christmas this year and every year!
1. Plan: Walk through your Christmas Day from start to finish and write down all the things you need on the day. Then list out ingredients and jobs.
2. Schedule: If you've never had a schedule before you're going to LOVE this! It's a big help to have one for the lead up so you know what you need to do and when you can fit it in. I always plan to have everything done at least 4 days before Chrissie so I can relax and enjoy the last few days hanging out with family and friends and unwinding.
3. Delegate: Don't be afraid to give someone a job! I have 3 children (5 years of age & twins who are 6 months old) - trust me NO ONE will be sitting idle around me on the day! If someone asks you if you need a hand say YES! Be prepared with a list of to do's so you can easily pass on something for them to do.
4. Prioritise: You only have 24 hours in a day - make sure you schedule the urgent and must do jobs into your planner first.
5. Group tasks together: If you have a few things to collect in the same area - get them all in one trip to save yourself from the 'running to and from' scenario.
6. Be realistic: If you can clearly see your schedule is full - DON'T book anything else in! PLEASE be kind to yourself.
7. Sleep: Now I know that you might be thinking; sleep, who gets sleep before Christmas?? But it is THE most important thing to do for you and your body. When you've had enough sleep, you can handle anything that the festive season throws at you. You have more energy AND your body can prepare for the increase in festive cheer of the food and alcohol kind.
Remember this is the time when life is meant to be FUN!!!
