Summary
The holidays are a busy time for people. From normal stressors such as working long hours to fighting traffic, caring for aging parents and paying the bills, just when you think your life is stressful enough, the holidays arrive, adding an additional layer of stress to our already busy lives. Indeed, people in the United States are more likely to feel their stress increases rather than decreases during the holidays. The holidays can be a hectic time for many, and a lack of money, a lack of time, and the hype and commercialism of the season causes increased stress for people in this country.
Holiday humbugs keep working straight through the holiday. They cram work around meals and family time. Don’t be a humbug.
Couch potatoes send their last work email before the holidays, they flip the off switch and completely disengage. You need meaningful social interaction, physical activity, and active contemplation, among other things.
Workaholidayic takes their workaholic tendencies and simply applies them to a different context. Rather than rushing from one work meeting to next, they rush from one holiday party to the next.
Your new holiday to-do list:
- Goals around how much you want to sleep, how much you want to exercise, how much you’ll allow yourself to do “real work,” among other categories of importance to you.
- Take time to clear your mental inbox.
- Set goals for the next year and spend more time planning how to achieve your goals than you do setting your goals.
- Create and uphold holiday traditions

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the tailored life podcast, the one and only fitness and nutrition podcast that goes way beyond just training and nutrition. |
| 0:13.4 | I'm your host, Cody McBroom, and today with me I have Dr. Brandon Roberts, the chief science officer of tailored coaching method. |
| 0:20.3 | What you were about to hear is this |
| 0:21.7 | week's research review. Every single week, we're going to bring you a short 10 to 20 minute podcast |
| 0:26.8 | breaking down one specific topic, diving into all the research and teaching as much as possible |
| 0:32.1 | and giving you application takeaways to use this for a science-based approach. So stay tuned and get ready for this week's |
| 0:39.6 | research review. All right, Brandon and I today are going to get into some holiday talk. We're |
| 0:45.6 | going to talk a little bit about, I'm sure this will go in multiple directions, so we'll see |
| 0:49.4 | kind of where the conversation leads us, but essentially starting out with how to come back |
| 0:53.5 | feeling refreshed |
| 0:54.4 | after the holidays. And I would even add to that instead of feeling burnt out or stressed or like |
| 1:01.8 | you're behind, I think a lot of people go into the holiday's excited for the break and then the |
| 1:05.5 | break gets the best of them. And then it's hard to pick things back up after the holiday's actually |
| 1:09.2 | done. So I'm excited to see what you put together, |
| 1:11.3 | man, and then obviously I'll be able to bounce my ideas back and forth at you. But give me your |
| 1:16.2 | thoughts. What are your opinions on this write-up, man? Yeah, yeah. So I kind of dug into the research |
| 1:21.8 | and really had to answer the question first of like, are people more stressed during the holidays like is that a thing because |
| 1:29.4 | it feels like it in my life and some of my friends lives i'm like it feels like the holidays |
| 1:34.4 | aren't that fun sometimes um and indeed there is a lot of research that supports that uh america |
| 1:41.4 | especially is like super stressed during the holidays. |
| 1:45.0 | I think it, the basis of the research is survey data, but I think that's something you could trust. |
| 1:53.0 | It was also interesting to see that women kind of bear the brunt of the stress because of cooking and cleaning and other tasks and just |
