(BPT) - Does the phrase "relaxing holiday season" seem far out of reach? If it does, you're not alone. There's plenty to do during the holidays: there are gifts to buy, parties to host, work to finish and travel plans to make. With a hectic schedule, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. This year, pace yourself and take a step back. After all, this is supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year, so don't forget that you deserve a gift too.
Here are five ideas to help you relax and get into the holiday spirit in no time.
A day at the spa. A little rest and relaxation can be just the pick-me-up you need to conquer the rest of your holiday to-do list, so plan a spa day for yourself. Take the day off so you don't feel rushed and spend it being pampered. You've worked hard all year, and a relaxing massage or facial is just too good to pass up.
A special wash for your special things. Whether it's your best table linens or your party dress, holiday parties can lead to extra loads of laundry. Treat your special things to a personalized wash with the LG SideKick. This smaller washer can fit right underneath your traditional front-load machine and is perfect for those smaller jobs handling five to six shirts in a four-pound load. It allows you to run two separate loads at the same time, so you spend less time doing laundry and more time enjoying the season.
Great food and great company. Hectic schedules filled with holiday obligations tend to reduce meal times to quick grab-and-go items in between errands. Why not break the cycle and enjoy a nice dinner out with your loved ones. Pick a place that holds memories for your family - it can be as formal or informal as you like - and gather for a relaxing meal together.
Binge watch in style. Catch up on the season's hottest TV shows in style, on the television with the best picture quality on the market today. The LG OLED B6 TV makes every seat the best seat in the house with its perfect blacks, brilliant brights and infinite contrast - even from wide viewing angles. The LG OLED B6 features both Dolby Vision(TM) HDR and UHDA certified 'Ultra HD Premium' HDR. And LG's award-winning webOS 3.0 Smart TV platform makes it easy to switch from your can't-miss-show to your favorite viral video, so kick back, relax and enjoy.
Get started on your goals for next year. Make 2017 the year you learn a new language or pick up at that instrument you've always wanted to play. Get a jump start by enrolling in a class over the holiday season to learn something new. Shaking up your routine and mastering a new skill is one of the best gifts to give yourself, and feeling like you've already gotten a jump on 2017 is just a bonus.
The holiday season is full of hustle and bustle, but if you remember to treat yourself every now and then, the season will ultimately be more enjoyable and relaxing for you and those you love most. To learn more about the LG SideKick or LG OLED B6 TV, visit www.lg.com.
