How to create yourself a New Year's mood if you

On holidays, mom bears an increased load and responsibility. It is she who must make sure that everything presents were bought and packaged, food for the festive table was brought from the store and prepared in numerous dishes; so that children have costumes for matinees, all New Year's crafts and so on are assigned to school and kindergarten. And in parallel with this, the mother must do her regular business: cleaning, cooking, washing, ironing, caring for children and her husband - and, perhaps, also work.

Accordingly, there is nothing to say about the festive mood. For someone to have a holiday, someone else must work on it for a long time. And yet, how to give yourself the feeling of a holiday and break out of the constant cycle of worries? Here are some life hacks you can try to create your New Year mood and rejuvenate.

1. Make a present for yourself. You are constantly worried about giving gifts to children, relatives, friends - and you probably save on yourself and put off all desires for later. It's time to change that. Buy yourself what you have wanted for a long time now: a new perfume, a bag or a dress. Trust me, your family will gain more than they lose if you make this purchase and become happier.

2. Take yourself a free evening. Okay, at least part of the evening. Take a bath, watch a movie, go to a beauty salon, arrange a meeting with a friend - relax and finally exhale. And give your husband and children a responsible task of cleaning or preparing food - let them not get bored in your absence.

3. Eat something tasty. If your refrigerator is full of food that cannot be touched until the New Year, and the family is on a "pasta-buckwheat" diet at this time, it's time to buy a small cake. Eat one piece yourself - and share the rest with your loved ones.

4. Give a gift to those who need it especially. New Year's Eve is the time for charity. Take unnecessary items to a fund that distributes them to those in need. Donate money to animal advocates. Pack a grocery bag for a large family who can't afford a party table. Become a kind wizard for someone - and your mood will improve by itself.

5. Do all your household chores with New Year's music. Play Christmas carols or a holiday movie on TV. They will help create a festive atmosphere and a sense of expectation for a miracle.
