Rage Against the (Holiday) Machine: Take Back Your Energy This Christmas

Dec 15 / Rebecca Haynes
A very short and sweet message before the festive season really kicks in.

Let’s face it: the holidays aren’t just about joy and togetherness—they’re often about overdoing it. Over-scheduling, over-indulging, and over-committing can leave you feeling drained, overwhelmed, and anything but festive. 

But here’s the hard truth: you don’t have to say yes to everything. This year, it’s time to break the cycle. Here’s how....
1. Stop Being a Martyr

It’s okay to prioritise YOU over endless obligations. If baking 100 mince pies or hosting that party feels like too much, it probably is. Skip it. (Yes, really.)


2. Challenge the ‘Treat Yourself’ Mindset

Holiday treats are fun, but too many will leave you sluggish and moody. Balance indulgence with foods that actually nourish you. You can never go wrong with more Brussel Sprouts!

3. Ditch the "Perfect Christmas" Pressure

No one will remember the Instagram-perfect details. Focus on memories, not perfection, and let go of unnecessary stress.
