Kicking the Clutter: Six simple tips for a stress-free Christmas

Ranka Burzan / Powell River Peak - DECEMBER 7, 2019

“It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year” is the name of a popular and traditional Christmas song. But for many people, Christmas is one of the most stressful times of the year. This is especially true when planning a gathering.

Also, a big stressor at Christmas can be a lack of money, high expectations of unreasonable relatives or being overwhelmed with too many things to do. Make the holiday season more enjoyable by changing traditional ways of shopping, baking or entertaining. In other words, simplify the way you celebrate Christmas or any other holiday.

Simply gift-giving
Instead of buying multiple gifts for family and friends that might not be appreciated and end up being clutter, invite them to your home for a potluck dinner. After all, isn’t Christmas about love, getting together and enjoying the holiday? For children in my family, I buy gift certificates for skating, dancing or swimming. These activities tend to be expensive and young parents appreciate the gift.

Give up expensive, high-stress rituals
If you’re forcing your children to see The Nutcracker or any other traditional show or event, and they whine every step of the way or are clearly not interested, make a change. True, families thrive on traditions, but it’s less about the occasion itself and more about time together. If your child lost interest in family tradition, give up expensive, high-stress rituals in favour of something simple and commonly appealing, such as watching a movie or making a favourite family dessert.

Powell River is big on celebration
You love to entertain, as well as cook and bake for your family and friends, but the lack of time and energy is preventing you from doing so. Powell River is not lacking in the local delicacy. You can order appetizers, smoked turkey, bread and desserts, maybe even have them delivered to you from local farmers and speciality stores.

Ranka Burzan owns a professional organizing company based in Powell River and has written several books on reducing clutter and becoming more organized.
