We know Christmas won't really kill us, but every year gets close. Constant activity, increasing demands, and an "always on" mentality added to the expectations of the holiday season makes the calmest of women feel like she's going a bit bonkers. A few years ago, I had enough of the madness. I wanted to really celebrate Christmas and experience the wonder and joy of past years.  I didn't get a response from Mrs.
Claus, but through trial and error, I discovered creative solutions that began to bring back the merry.  Discover the simple practices to bring back the joy. We can't get rid of all the stress, but we can learn how to handle it and still experience the thrill of Christmas.
