I cannot believe I am thinking about the holidays. But like it or not, Christmas is now under three months away. Thanksgiving is two months from now. Plus, Halloween is just about a month away. Therefore, we are most definitely quickly approaching the holidays.

I find the holiday season brings about all sorts of craziness with it. Don’t get me wrong; I happen to love the holidays. But still, my sanity usually is tested at one point or another during this time of the year.

I always have the best intentions. However, I have found that it is inevitable to deal with craziness during the holidays.

That said, I have found a few things to help to keep saner during the holidays over the last few years. These are my goals to indeed remain calmer and sane during this time of the year.

So what are the ways that have helped to indeed keep me sane during the holidays?

Read on to find out now.

5 Goals to Set To Stay Sane During The Holidays with Purina ONE®

5 Goals to Set to Stay Sane This Holiday Season with Purina ONE

1. Take Time for Yourself

Sometimes I need to get away from it all. During these times, I find a simple drive alone can do a world of wonders. Working out or exercising alone can also help. Even more so, shopping alone is equally is calming for me. I am a big Target shopper. Target is my go-to for all. I also enjoy a cup of Starbucks while roaming the aisles of Target!

Thanks for Shopping at Target Sign in Store

See though I love to shop at Target for all sorts of things for myself, my family and even for our dog. Let’s face it; our dog needs to eat just as much as the rest of us. That is why I am thankful that Target carries Purina One®.

Purina One Dry Dog Food in Target

See our dog happens to be enjoying Purina ONE′s® goal is to provide pet owners with tailored diet for the pets, as well as Purina ONE® Classic Ground Beef & Brown Rice Entree Wet Dog Food. See with Purina One® food; every ingredient has a purpose.

How so? Because you see everything that goes into our foods works together to provide balanced nutrition for your pet.

2. Save More Money

During this time of the year, saving money is not always an easy thing to do. So, I admit this one may seem far-fetched to some. But trust me, coupons and deals do exist even during the holidays. Knowing where to look and find them is half the battle.

Take for instance Purina One® at Target that we just mentioned above. You can print a coupon from 9/19-10-13. Plus, get a FREE $5 Target GiftCard™ with a Purina pet food, litter, and/or treats’ purchase of $25 or more. Also, from 9/23 – 9/29 – Buy 2 bags of Purina ONE® Dry Dog Food and get a $5 Target GiftCard™. So, not only do you get the best nutrition for your pet. But also you get this food at a great price, too!

3. Don’t Forget

Coming from a very forget person at times, I also admit this one might be a challenge even in the best of times. But during the holiday time, this can be downright challenging. I could forget my head if it weren’t attached even on a good day with all I have to remember for not only myself but my whole family, too.

So, in addition to buying Purina One® at Target and saving money as I mentioned. Right now, sign up now to get a $3 off coupon and a personalized food recommendation for your pet. Plus, If you subscribe to Purina ONE® at Target, you get 5% off + free shipping. So, you never have to forget dog food again when you are shopping at Target. All the hard work is taken care of for you with subscribing ahead of time. One less thing to forget during the holidays for sure!

4. Say No When You Need

Being a mom, I sometimes have trouble saying the simple word, “No.” I have learned the hard way that not saying, “No” sometimes can do more harm than good for my sanity though. So, I am slowly but surely learning when I need to say “No,” especially during the holiday season. See I value my sanity more than trying to please the masses.

5. Be Reasonable with Your Goals

Again, the holidays equal crazy times ahead. So, last but not least don’t forget to be reasonable with your goals. Because, this one step alone can indeed make a world of difference for your sanity’s sake during the holidays, as well as all year long!

Now that you have learned the five goals that have helped me to keep sane during the holidays, as well as throughout the year, I also hope this helps keep you calmer overall.

How do you keep calm and sane during the holidays?

    Hallmark movies, and lots of it! I don’t seem to have trouble with the stress of the holidays, so much as the stress on myself to FEEL everything. I hope I find a better way this year!
    Oh, and all three of my pets love Purina.
