Holiday Wellness

Описание: The holidays can be magical… and overwhelming. In this episode of Between Two White Coats, Dr. Michelle Plaster and Nurse Practitioner Amber Foster unpack practical, meaningful ways to stay well—mind, body, and soul—throughout the holiday season.

From the pressure of busy schedules to financial strain, emotional highs and lows, and endless festive obligations, the holidays can take a toll on your overall health. Dr. Plaster and Amber break down simple, realistic strategies to help you slow down, stay grounded, and protect your well-being in the midst of the holiday chaos.

You’ll learn how to:
✨ Create a “calm and cozy” holiday by reducing the frantic pace, embracing simplicity, and being intentional with your time.
✨ Set healthy boundaries—because every “yes” is a “no” to something else.
✨ Use digital detox moments to reconnect with your family (and yourself!).
✨ Build meaningful traditions through festive activities, family time, and shared experiences.
✨ Choose experiences over stuff and rethink gift-giving in a healthier, more memorable way.
✨ Stay financially well and avoid the January “spending hangover.”
✨ Support your physical health with balanced eating, movement, and seasonal activities.
✨ Practice gratitude to reshape your mindset and lift your emotional health.
✨ Serve others through volunteering—giving your time, not just your money.

The holidays don’t have to control you. With a little intentionality, you can shape the season into one that restores you, strengthens your relationships, and supports complete wellness.

Stay grateful, stay grounded, and take care of yourself this holiday season.
