For those of us who work with children and families, the holiday season can be particularly stressful. The Tribal Star has published a list of resources for practicing self care. You can find it at http://theacademy.sdsu.edu/TribalSTAR/resources/burnout.html.
The best gift you can give yourself and your family, friends, co-workers and clients is to practice self care. Parker Palmer said that burnout isn't the result of giving to much, it is the result of trying to give what we don't have. Self care activities help fill us up so we can give without becoming burned out.
Take care of yourself this holiday season. You are worth the investment!
