It's the time when people enjoy or at least they are expected to enjoy with families, friends and relatives. But for many other people, this becomes too gloomy to handle and they feel overwhelmed. Is there anything which one can do to make the imminent holiday time less stressful? There are centainly things we can tell to make things less stress bearing. Although we cannot change the surrpondings, relatives and their behaviour, we can definitely change the thoughts you carry towards them.
