The HollerDays are Here Again!

The Holidays Don’t Need to be the HollerDays- Says Family & Teen Expert

Chicago, IL – WEBWIRE – Tuesday, November 26, 2013

We’ve been oversold on the idea that the Holidays are a time of family stress and turmoil-Here’s the secrets on how to put the fun back into this season.

Dr. John Mayer, a leading expert on teens and families discussed today on his radio broadcast on www.WebTalkRadio.com how we have oversold the tension and stress of the holidays rather than accentuating the positives.

In this lively, sharing and yet highly instructive broadcast Dr. Mayer calls for us to change our approach to the Holidays. They don’t have to be the HollerDays like they have deteriorated to become in most families. We seem to brace ourselves for the worst in families as we approach the holidays and the media loves to jump in on sensationalizing the holidays as full of stress and tension and all the bad about families. Let’s be positive about the holidays again. We can do this if we follow the overriding principle of Dr. Mayer’s: If it is not Fun you’re Done! Don’t force you and your family into negative situations and events. Broadcast take-aways are: No Yelling/Communicate/Control your Family and practice your new healthy lifestyle just like DR. Mayer outlines in his book: FAMILY FIT: FIND YOUR BALANCE IN LIFE . http://tinyurl/ccoj857.
