Use Exercise to Reduce Holiday Stress

Exercise has been shown to reduce stress, boost energy, build your immune system, and help beat seasonal depression!

Making time for exercise can be difficult during the busy holiday season.  Writing exercise into your daily planner will help you budget time for it.  To save time, skip the trip to the gym and try new exercises at home.  Shoot for 20 minutes on the busy days and save longer sessions for event-free days.

Involve and inspire others in your quest to be active!  For a new twist on old holiday traditions, organize an active holiday gathering or take a family walk after the meal. You will feel better, have more energy, and be more likely to eat smarter.
