Navigating the Holidays with Parkinson's

• Pay Attention to Your Needs
  • It’s important to take care of yourself and to maintain the routines that help you navigate living with the disease. 
  • Be mindful about what invitations you accept and what “hustle and bustle” you take on. Choose only those that truly bring you joy. 
  • Find someone to help you navigate the hustle and bustle. Do not be afraid to reach out for help.
  • It is important to mentally prepare for the elevated activity during the holiday season. 
  • Be social at your own pace and ability. Being around friends and family will do wonders for your mental health.
    
• Stay On Track With Medications
  • Ensure that you have enough medication for holiday travel and busier schedules. Make a list of medications and when they should be taken and refilled.
  • If traveling, make sure your travel partner is aware of your medications, as well as local emergency medical services. 
    
• Keep Up Your Exercise Routine
  • If you are traveling, scope out how you will keep on your routine ahead of time. Check out where the local gyms are, if there is a Parkinson's workout class in the area, etc. Be prepared. 
  • If you are having guests at your house, make them aware that your exercise routine is important to your health. Include them in your routine when possible. Make workouts a fun group activity if you enjoy that. 
    
• Eat Healthy
  • It’s ok to enjoy the treats that the season has to offer, but overall try to stick to your normal healthy eating routine.
  • Take healthy snacks with you when you know you will be out and about.
  • Remember that what you eat can greatly affect your symptoms. Sticking to your healthy eating plan will keep you healthy and give you more energy to enjoy the season. 
    
• Get Plenty of Rest
  • Eating, sleeping and taking medications are all very important to navigating life with Parkinson's. Your body needs to rest to repair itself and stay as healthy as you can. 
  • If traveling, build in rest days or downtime for yourself. 
  • Ensure that you get the proper time that you need for yourself and for sleep. Choose your activities mindfully to ensure your rest.
