Holiday Hacks For The Highly Sensitive Person
• Embrace the art of kindness (i.e. Practicing random acts of kindness).
• Ground yourself and practice deep breathing to center yourself on a regular basis.
• Create a gratitude list including 5 things you are grateful for each day.
• Simplify the holidays (i.e. Decluttering items, writing shopping or grocery lists).
• Pamper yourself and rejuvenate.
• Embrace your creativity by making DIY gifts such as bath or baking products. There are many resources that include a variety of DIY gifts such as YouTube or Pinterest.
• Don’t be hard on yourself.
• Get yourself a gift.
• Embrace old traditions that you love or cultivate new traditions. Do which ever one works for you.
• Take time and space to recharge at holiday events (i.e. Bathroom breaks, taking a walk outside, etc)...
• Avoid over indulgence. This may include foods, compulsive spending, alcohol, and other toxic substances.
• Exercise regularly if possible.
• Seek out inspiration to help motivate you during the holidays.
• Create a budget if you plan on spending money during the holidays.
• To avoid sensory overload, it may be helpful to shop when it is less crowded. This may include mornings or before the holidays. Shopping online may also be a helpful option.
• Get cozy and find time to relax.
• Help create someone else’s holiday.
• Know your triggers and have a plan that includes healthy coping strategies.
• If you are low on cash, swapping trades with someone such as babysitting or cooking can be a great gift idea on the holidays.
• Attend support groups. There are a number of support groups such as 12 step meetings on the holidays that may provide support as well as holiday celebration.
Wishing you all a happy holidays!
