The day after Christmas can feel like a crash—quiet rooms, half-taken-down decorations, and leftovers that won’t quit. We lean into that moment and explore why the emotional dip is so common, then chart a saner way forward that doesn’t depend on noise, sales, or the perfect holiday script. Along the way, we revisit the surprising roots of Boxing Day, contrast tradition with today’s shopping frenzy, and unpack how a simple song lyric can name our mood and gently point us toward something sturdier.
Think of this as a five-minute reset for the heart and mind: part reflection, part history, part encouragement to carry the meaning of Christmas into the ordinary week ahead. Press play for a calm, grounded take on the day after, a nod to Matthew West’s “Day After Christmas,” and a reminder that light still leads when the string lights go dark.
