During this busy season, we can be tempted to increase unhealthy behavior—such as drinking more alcohol, eating more sweets, getting less sleep and exercising less. This in turn lowers our defenses and makes every experience—both positive and negative—seem magnified. Here are some tips to help you come through the holiday season with more joy and less stress.

Caregivers interact with many doctors and often perform tasks previously taken care of by licensed medical personnel. While such experiences teach us a lot about health care, applying that knowledge to our own health is a different challenge. Most caregivers regularly take someone else to see a physician, but when was the last time we saw ours? Learn what you need to do to be a "healthy caregiver".

Sometimes humor meets tragedy in strange places. Our challenge is to expect and enjoy it. From Seinfeld to Foxworthy, comedians challenge us to seek humor. When you watch a funny movie, see a comedian perform or read a hilarious book, stress can melt and endorphins rise. While caregiving is serious business, and we often shed bitter tears, life can be whimsical. Our challenge as caregivers may be to find the humor when circumstances are tough.
