Powering up for peace of mind

The festive lights are twinkling, and the scent of holiday spices fills the air. As we dive headfirst into the holiday season, it's easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of joy and celebration. However, amidst the merriment, it's crucial to take a moment to reflect on the importance of managing stress and mental health during this time of year.

Research consistently shows a spike in stress levels during the holiday season, with factors such as financial strain, family dynamics, and the pressure to create picture-perfect celebrations contributing to the increase. This stress can take a toll on both physical and mental health, leading to fatigue, anxiety, and even depression.

By addressing the importance of managing our stress and mental health during the holidays, we contribute to the well-being of our entire community. 

During this season, our holiday ads (like the one above) were made possible by Flathead Electric Cooperative's "Roundup for Safety." We extend our heartfelt gratitude to this program and those who support it, acknowledging that it goes beyond powering our homes; it empowers the strength of our community.

Wishing you moments of joy and peace, however big or small, during this holiday.
- The NCF team
