Holidays

Planning time with friends for holidays?

People spend holidays with friends for a variety of reasons:
· They are far away from their family of origin · They’ve created a chosen family · It’s better for their mental health · It’s too much to travel · You have more fun celebrating a particular holiday with friends ·

Whatever the reason, I hope that you spend any holiday — no matter how big, small, simple, or important — with those that you feel the most comfortable with.

What holidays might people spend with friends?

• Any holiday, really!
• Religious holidays such as Christmas, Hanukkah, Diwali, Easter, Ramadan, Chinese New Year, or the Holiday Season
• New Year
• Romantic holidays like Valentine’s Day. Celebrate friend love instead of a romantic relationship.
• National Holidays such as the Fourth of July

What about Traditions?

You can make new traditions or reimagine holiday traditions you’ve had in the past. There are no rules. What do you love about the holiday? What brings you joy? What memories do you want to create? Let your values guide the type of traditions you create.
