T’is the season to be jolly, with Nelsons tips on how to help you through the Christmas period
With the average mother spending 13 whole days preparing for Christmas[i] it’s not surprising that 65% of women find the festive period stressful[ii]. Christmas decorations, presents, cooking the Christmas dinner and maintaining family peace all can contribute to the burden and strains of Christmas. Keeping cool, calm and collected will help you focus on the job in hand as well as maintaining your sanity! Here are a few tips on how to keep calm and enjoy the festive season.
Feeling overwhelmed?
With so many things to think about in the run up to Christmas, it’s not easy to know where to begin. Bach™ Original Flower Remedy Elm# can help if you feel completely overwhelmed with your to-do list. It helps you take a step back and look at your situation objectively. You can then prioritise your tasks and responsibilities accordingly, allowing you to take control.
Shop till you drop
If you are hitting the shops in December to buy the endless list of presents for family and friends, try RESCUE Remedy®# to help you find your inner calm. Rescue Remedy is the famous combination of five Bach™ Original Flower Remedies specially blended to comfort and reassure helping to provide relief in those everyday stressful situations. It can be used anytime, anywhere and is suitable for all the family.
Dressing the Christmas tree
According to ROSPA[iii], every year, about 1,000 people are injured by their Christmas tree, usually while fixing stars, lights or other decorations to the higher branches. If decorating your little Norwegian Spruce has resulted in some bumps and bruises then try Nelsons Arnicare™ arnica cream#. As a natural first aid for bruises, Nelsons Arnicare arnica cream will help to leave you looking fabulous and bruise free in your party frock.
Post-Christmas blues
With the festive period over, your bank balance in the red from Christmas shopping and the cold short days it’s easy to feel fed up and miserable. If you are feeling blue Duchy Herbals Hyperi-lift# , made from a herbaceous perennial plant commonly known as St John’s Wort or Hypericum, could help lift your mood.* Duchy Herbals Hyperi-lift is a traditional herbal medicinal product used to relieve symptoms of slightly low mood and mild anxiety, based on longstanding use as a traditional remedy.
