So, it’s officially the hectic holiday and shopping season! I know that many of you are too busy to read many “incites” this month, so this week I am providing a list of things that may be beneficial to you as you work to survive—and thrive—as you spend time with family, prepare food, shop, plan and attend events, wrap and unwrap gifts, etc.
1. Stress-Free Holidays? This is an article posted on our web site, which can be forwarded to others who may benefit from the information and tips it contains. It particularly focuses on the challenges unique to people with autism and those who support them. 2. Thirteen Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do I found this article on the Internet. It has some great points that may help you grow even through this busy season! 3. Fidgets make great holiday gifts, and could help ease stress during traffic jams, holiday parties, winter storms, or schedule changes. 4. Watch our Facebook page again this week for more relevant resources, and for a chance to win a great prize! Although this is a busy time of year, as we remembered last week, there are many reasons to be thankful, and there are many opportunities to grow and to connect in meaningful ways. Enjoy!
