How to Thrive This Holiday Season

With Thanksgiving just around the corner, Christmas on the way, and New Year’s shortly after that, the last couple months of the year can be a busy time for many. While the holiday season can bring a lot of joy and traditions are comforting, we may need to celebrate a new way this year.

Don’t worry though, there are a number of things you can do to make sure your holiday season is filled with nothing but comfort and joy.

Join Magellan’s live interactive webinar How to Thrive This Holiday Season on Wednesday, October 14, at 1:00 p.m., CDT. Learning objectives include:

  1. Identify why the holidays are more stressful than other times of the year
  2. Explain coping skills and boundary setting

Registration is also available for the November and December EAP webinars.

November

While caring for a family member with a disability or chronic disease can be rewarding, it can also be quite demanding. Caregivers sometimes expend so much time and energy helping others that they neglect their own physical and emotional health. This can lead to caregiver burnout— characterized by physical, emotional and mental exhaustion. It’s vital for caregivers to prioritize self-care, and to reach out for the help they may need.
