It's officially the most wonderful time of the year— or is it? During the holidays, many of us are anything but cheerful. From Thanksgiving to Diwali, Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanza and New Year's, it‘s enough to make anyone feel frantic and frazzled.
In this episode, Jill sits down with Niro Feliciano, cognitive psychotherapist and author of the new book ‘All is Calmish– How to Feel Less Frantic and More Festive During the Holidays,' about the best ways to handle stress and feel joy during the holiday season. Niro has tips for dealing with grief, savoring key moments, knowing when to say "no," and even how to help kids (and adults) handle the influx of comparisons caused by social media and diverse holiday traditions.
