    Great article, howevern I have found that "Today I want to be clear in my mind, so that I can make the correct decisions. I want to be healthy and connected to my loved ones and myself." does not work nearly as well as Today I WILL clear my mind, AND make correct decisions. I WILL be healthy and connected to loved ones and myself. The subconcious mind does not understand I want, it will understand I WILL.

    I really enjoyed the article. The empasis that adults need to stop, slow down and relax is very true and important in all aspects of life, especially the holidays. Thank you, Dr. Mao

    Oh dear: another article telling me to breath away holidaystress. Here are my tips. Anyone with me? Comedy Helps: Read Holiday on Ice by David Sedaris. Rent Elf or Bad Santa Drink. Sorry, not as PC as breathing, but a glass of chablis can help alot with those family-induced shoulder knots. Call friends. If you're stuck at a bad holiday scene, connecting with someone outside of the immediate situation can help provide perspective and relief.
