Many times people underestimate how stressful the holidays can be on their emotional health. One of the most important things I’ve discoverd is to take time to recharge my emotional batteries. This does not have to be complicated or expensive. A few minutes sitting outside drinking a cup of hot chocolate or coffee helps me think more clearly and quiets my busy mind. I also sense GOD’s Spirit better when I am sitting down listening and enjoying what HE’s created.
Whatever you do to recharge your emotional batteries, it will help you become a better dad, mom, husband, or wife. Marriage is difficult enough without running on emotionally empty. Look for simple ways to take time out for yourself, and it will help you handle things better.
