Rest Whether it's parties, family time, gift shopping, or all of the above, I'm guessing you've got a lot going on right now. Of course, some of those activities are a lot of fun. But that doesn't change the fact that this season can be a bit exhausting. That's why it's more important than ever right now to make time for yourself. Rest. Say no to a holiday party or two so you can lie on your sofa and watch a cheesy Hallmark movie.
