The holidays are a busy time, and when we get stressed out and run down, our immune system suffers. The next three days we will offer tips will help you stay healthy, happy, and less stressed this holiday season.

Shopping:
When you’re out and about shopping, be aware of those around you. If possible, carry your own pen for signing receipts, and use elbows or knuckles for pushing buttons on elevators. Make sure you wash your hands regularly and carry a small bottle of hand sanitizer for those times when a sink isn’t nearby. Keeping a pump of hand sanitizer in your car door compartment is a great way to remember to sanitize after each store visit. Many stores are now offering sanitizing wipes at the front entrances for use in wiping off the handle of your shopping cart. Take advantage of these when they’re available, and carry some of your own wipes to use when they are not. Other uses for sanitizing wipes include cleaning off high chairs for your child and wiping down the tabletops at fast food restaurants.
