Embrace Those Leftovers: If your fridge is still groaning under the weight of holiday leftovers, gobble them up. Enjoy that festive food and take the night off from cooking.

Sweat a Little: No, there is no need to immediately run a marathon. A brisk walk or a dance-off to your favorite music in the living room also counts. The point here is moving and shaking off that holiday sluggishness.

Laugh It Off: Remember that not everything went as planned – the burnt cookies, the awkward family moments. Now it's time to laugh about it all.

Snooze and Lose...Stress: Catch up on sleep. You've earned it. Settle up in your comfiest pajamas, get under the blankets, and put the world on hold.

Plan a Mini-Adventure: It could be as simple as a movie night, a walk in the park, or trying a new hobby. Give yourself something to look forward to. This is a big one for me.

As we get back into the routine of everyday life, remember that the end of the holidays doesn't mean the end of fun or relaxation. It's just a shift back to a more normal schedule. So take it easy, keep things light, and step into the post-holiday season with a refreshed spirit and a chuckle or two.
