Thanksgiving is nearly a week away and after that we will be in full holiday swing! That means awesome holiday movies, beautiful decorations, and lots and lots of comfort food.
But that also means that on top of the everyday stresses of balancing work, family, love, and whatever else you have going on in your life for those other 10 months of the year, you now have the added stress of holiday shopping, cooking, and partying.
Of course, it’s a wonderful time of year full of amazement and beauty; Still, it’s easy to get caught up in the holiday stress. So, to help you get through this time, here are a few tips for stopping any holiday stress before it starts…
- Breath. Give yourself a few moments here and there to just be.
- Exercise. Still a great way to get your mind clear and get some positive endorphins out there too!
- Sleep. We are constantly trying to do it all, but we need to realize that our bodies need rest in order to put up with all that we put it through. Sleep also helps you to clear your mind and remember what’s important.
- Ask for help. I get it. We think we need to do it all alone, but we don’t! Don’t be afraid to ask family, friends, and coworkers for their help. We all need someone to lean on, and what better time to remind ourselves of that than during the holidays?!
- Reward yourself. You’ve earned it! And it gives you something to look forward to after completing your tasks.
- Recognize that you are human. Perfection is something we strive for but rarely achieve. Don’t beat yourself up over a few mistakes. Learn from them and move on!

Bonus tip: HAVE SOME FUN! It’s the holidays! It’s supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year. Spend time with those you care about. Do something nice for someone else. Eat some comfort food. Just try not to stress about the calories… 😛
For the past few months we have been completely focused on bringing you tips for overall total wellness. These are principles that we hope that you will integrate into your overall daily lives, as they are important to follow all year round.
However, for the next few months we will be focusing on Relaxation.
The rest of the year will be an entertaining, exciting, though, stressful time. It always is. All of the wonder and splendor of the fall and winter seasons, complete with more holidays than any other time of year can take a toll on your sanity.
The changing of the seasons means less long, sunny days to brighten your mood. The hustle and bustle of the holidays can put stress on you with all of the shopping and parties and travel, all the while still trying to stay focused and on top of your work schedule.
This is why we at Planet Beach feel it’s important for all of us to remind ourselves to take a little time to relax whenever we can. We will be sharing tips and ideas on the best ways for you to stay feeling relaxed through even the most stressful time of year.

Are you getting your beauty sleep?
We all love sleep. Sleep makes you feel revitalized, but its significance goes far beyond just lifting your mood and banishing under-eye circles. Sleep is a key component of total wellness that benefits your heart, mind, weight and more!
Sleep is an active state affecting both your physical & mental well-being. When you sleep, your body rests and restores energy. A good night’s sleep is often the best way to help cope with stress, solve problems, or recover from illness.
So how much sleep do you need? The amount of sleep each person needs varies depending mostly on age and level of physical activity. Infants need 16 hours of sleep a day, while teenagers typically require 9 hours. For most adults, 7 to 8 hours is sufficient although as few as 5 or as many as 10 may be required. As a general rule of thumb, if you feel drowsy during the day or if you routinely fall asleep within 5 minutes of lying down, you probably haven’t had enough sleep!
You’re life is full of daily responsibilities. Whether its work, taking care of the kids and spouse, running errands, working out, they ALL wear you down. Despite the fact that you’re completely exhausted at the end of the day you STILL can’t get enough sleep. Here are some helpful tips to get a better night’s sleep!
First of all, you need to let go and relax after a long day. You deserve it! Take a warm bath, read a book or do another relaxing activity before bed. You can train your brain to associate certain restful activities with sleep. Make them part of your bedtime routine to make it easier to get to sleep so you can wake up refreshed and completely revitalized to take on the day!
Set a sleeping schedule and don’t veer from it. Go to bed at a set time each night and wake up at the same time each morning. “Sleeping in” on the weekends resets your sleep cycle for a late awakening, making it harder to wake up early on Monday morning.
If all else fails, and you STILL can’t get to sleep, don’t just lie in bed awake. The anxiety of not being able to fall asleep just makes things worse. Watch TV, read a book or listen to music until you feel tired.
The amount of sleep you get contributes to your overall wellness in a variety of ways so make sure you get enough of it to keep you strong and healthy!
Planet Beach can help you relax before heading home after work, making it a little easier to get to sleep at night. Try one of our massages, a facial, oxygen therapy, guided meditation or a combination of these to ease your mind before heading home. These services can do wonders for your overall wellness and help you get the sleep you need! Read more about these services HERE!
