It's nearly Christmas, a time which can bring so much excitement but also so much stress, especially if you're part of a blended family. I reached out to you on the Blended socials and asked if you had any questions around Christmas: Be that grief, how to share the kids or anything else that's causing you stress, and we were inundated with your questions. Today we welcome Professor Lisa Doodson back to Blended. She's an author and psychologist specialising in step-family dynamics. Today she answers some of your questions around splitting time over Christmas, making new traditions and the balancing act between bio and step families. These episodes are short and sweet and packed full of advice. As always Lisa gives some great tips and I hope it eases up the stress in the run up to Christmas.

Holidays are all about giving more and getting more. What you are left with at the end of the holiday season is more clutter. Clutter in your home, your office, and worse of all…..clutter in your mind! This adds stress and distraction from what is important. Take the holiday season to minimize your life. Having less is more. Strive for quality not quantity. Nutrition? Simplify your routine. High nutritional dense foods for breakfast and lunch then have some fun for dinner. Make your breakfast and lunch routine for Monday to Friday the same so you don’t need to waste time thinking about what to have and how your going to make it. On the weekend? Go rogue! Office? Buy good quality, reliable technology that won’t outdate in 6 months, declutter your desk, file away your 2016 paperwork, clean up your wires! Go through your computer and clear your desktop, restart your computer from scratch every year! Simplify your home gym. Get two @perform_better Competition Kettlebells, a skipping rope and space. (put “COACHGLASS” in at checkout for your 10% off Coach Glass discount!) Go through your kitchen and get yourself a good knife, quality cooking utensils and cookware, gooood coffee with an espresso machine! Everything else? GET RID OF IT! Make this holiday season about quality time with your family, quality thoughtful gifts with quality receipt attached with quality return policies so you can take all that crap back and buy something that will truly add some quality to your life.

Goodafternoon, With Christmas just around the corner today I want to share with you some ways in which you can bring Christmas cheer to others around you. Volunteering – Volunteering is a beautiful gift to give this Christmas, being able to spend some time helping others can help you to help you to feel good, spread happiness and feel happy! Studies have shown that volunteering has the power to reduce anxiety and depression. There are many different organisations at Christmas in which you can help, just do a little Google search online to see what volunteering opportunities are available close to where your live. Bake some gingerbread cookies and take them into work and surprise everyone in your team. Or if you don’t like to bake then maybe you could buy some and share them around. Share Christmas Cheer through surprising others. Offer to help someone – If you have a family member or friend who is feeling a little overwhelmed during the lead up to Christmas, then why not ask them if you can help them with anything; such as babysitting the kids or going over to their place and sitting with them to help wrap christmas presents can make all the difference. If someone is alone at Christmas time then invite them to your celebrations. This can make all the difference. Ask your friends, work collegues and friends what they are doing at Christmas? Be conscious of including others into your Christmas Cheer celebrations. Give back by donating a gift to those in need. Some stores run appeals, such as Kmart where you can get a tag from the Wishing Tree. Using one end of the tag, indicate the age group and gender of who you think might like to receive your gift. All you need to do then is place the gift under the Wishing Tree. Then you are able to take one half of the tag to hang on your tree at home. Share the love and Christmas Cheer this year by buying just one more gift and help someone smile this Christmas. Go and EXPLORE – Surprise a loved one with an adventure this Christmas. You can create your own experience such as creating a surprise day out, like going for a hike or if it is hot then visit a new coastline of beaches or stand up paddle boarding or if it is winter you could perhaps go snowboarding. For adventure ideas you could also visit websites like redballoon.com.au which is an awesome platform to choose an experience to buy as a gift voucher. Experiences are always fun because they help create lasting memories. Create your own Christmas cards – A fun activity for the holidays (especially for kids and big kids!) is to spread Christmas cheer is through creating your own Christmas cards. Its really easy just grab some different coloured paper or cardboard maybe red and green, some glitter and away you go!Another idea could be to buy some plain white or plain brown wrapping paper and get the kids to create the Christmas wrapping paper by painting or drawing Christmas trees, santa, stars, Happy Christmas anything like that on the paper and then use that as wrapping paper for the Christmas presents. Compliment a person each and every day from today till Christmas day and share the Christmas cheer through happiness and compliments. It may be something as simple as letting someone know they are truly appreciated, thanking a collegue or a friend. It is really about taking time to notice something nice about another. I hope you have found some of these Christmas Cheer ideas helpful, please SHARE this post to help spread the Christmas Cheer with others. Merry Christmas everyone, enjoy your weekend!
