It's not always the most wonderful time of the year for everyone. And with the holidays approaching, there are a few things you can do to reduce some of the pressures and stresses according to Doctor Simon Sherry. He is a professor in the Department of Psychology and Neuroscience at Dalhousie University and a clinical psychologist at CRUX Psychology. And as he points out, a lot of the pressure comes from unrealistic expectations and harmful upward social comparisons. He also weighs in on the reality of heading into our second Christmas of the pandemic with the recent restrictions being implemented because of the Omicron variant. And he wants people to be respectful of the rules, but move forward and live their lives based on their values and not on fear and anxiety.
