  • 77. December Tips to Chill Out from Melisa Nielsen

    Melisa is here to remind you to enjoy the holiday/festival season, instead of stressing over it.

    - It’s just a day.

    Take some pressure off yourself.

    You can celebrate the value and magic in the holiday everyday!

    - Get your grocery list ready, have a meal plan.

    - Take a moment, 2 or 10, to take in your child’s excitement.

    It’s super easy to be frustrated, take in their excitement instead.

    - If it feels really stressful to you, create a new tradition.

    Maybe it’s reading a story each night and slowing down.

    Have the homeschool and peaceful foundation of your dreams.
