Thanksgiving is literally just around the corner so you would be probably be busy right now doing all the needed preparations. Before you go about freaking out, here are some ways by which you can keep your sanity and cool while preparing for Thanksgiving:

  1. As a rule, go for 1.5 lbs. of turkey per person. This would help make sure that there’s plenty for everyone and yet you’d still have some for leftovers.
  2. Ask the people you have invited whether they are allergic to certain foods or whether they are on a special diet. They would really appreciate your asking.
  3. Make sure you have enough utensils, plates and glasses for all your guests. You would also need to make sure beforehand that you would be able to accommodate all the guests that you invited.
  4. Have some warm drinks on hand. This could help you buy time should your guests arrive way before you have finished making all the food preparations.
  5. To keep everyone in a light mood, put out some aromatic candles or have diffusers placed in strategic locations. Make sure you use Jasmine, Rose, Ylang-Ylang and Spearmint.

At the end of the festivities, make sure that you remove all the stress from your body by relaxing in a warm tub of water with a few drops of your favorite essential oils or have a relaxing massage before you doze off.
