Understanding Our Emotional Connection to Holidays
Manage episode 383492507 series 3394077
Ever wondered why the holiday season can be both exhilarating and overwhelming? Why do some of us feel an inexplicable sadness amidst all the merriment? As your host, I'm here to take you on a journey through my own rollercoaster of holiday emotions.
Let's talk about the elephant in the room - holiday expectations. They can weigh on us, especially for those distanced from family or entering their golden years. We pull back the curtain on the truth that 31% of the public experience a touch of melancholy during this season. But it's not all doom and gloom as we brainstorm ways to reach out to loved ones, and how to celebrate without breaking the bank. We'll delve into my own holiday plans that blend treasured traditions with a dash of the new.
In the spirit of the season, we'll also share tips on how to bring a sparkle of cheer to seniors. From meaningful conversations to shared traditions, and even the joy of finding new hobbies or podcasts, there's a lot we can do. And hey, who can resist a tree lighting ceremony or a church boutique? We'll also honor our brave veterans, exploring the history of Veterans Day and how we can show our gratitude. So, join us for a chat that promises to guide you through the holiday season with a renewed sense of understanding and warmth.
