Find time to clear your head. Finding tools like yoga, tai chi, or meditation can help bring balance to your life. These practices can help control your bodies stress response, calm tension, and reduce blood pressure. They also help make you become more grounded which helps to keep your mind clear.

Learn to prioritize. Multi-tasking can be very tedious especially around the holidays. The best way to make sure you get things done is to make a list. This will help you remember what needs to get done, and what can wait to get done. Often we have to do everything, and forget to realize that not all tasks are imperative.

Make sure you get some R&R. Life is hectic when we have to pick up the kids, work, make dinner, and find time to do the other things that need attending. Make sure you set time everyday aside for just you. If you feel that everyone gets in the way of you making R&R time then stand firm and tell them that you will get to it when you have time. Don’t forget that you have the authority to say yes or no.

Unwind with music. Promising studies show that listening to music can help you relax. Such music as classical soft music, and therapeutic cds show promise as a means of calming the mind and body. These recordings work by projecting two tones of similar frequencies into each ear. This creates a “beat” at a certain frequency in the mind, say proponents, and your brain falls in sync with it; different frequencies call forth different moods.
