The Core Expert® on CBS LA: How To Have A Healthy And Happy Holiday Season

I recently joined KCAL CBS Los Angeles to share some ways for us all to have a happy and healthy holiday season. We discussed:

Movement is medicine: Create fun, accessible ways to stay active—post-meal walks, group activities, or anything that boosts metabolism, mood, and collective energy. Too cold outside? Have a dance party!

Support your mental well-being: Movement and healthy habits help lower stress hormones and raise the happiness hormones that nurture your body, mind, heart, and spirit.

Listen to your body: It will always tell you what it needs—fullness cues, hunger cues, movement cues. Slow down and honor them.

Eat before you go: Instead of skipping meals before gatherings, try having a small, satisfying snack beforehand

Indulge intentionally: The holidays are meant to be enjoyed. Treat yourself with awareness, moderation, and self-kindness—not rigid restriction or guilt.

Stay connected: I’m here to support you through the season. For more tools and wellness guidance, sign up for my newsletter on my homepage, or by emailing info@jessicaschatz.com.

✨ You can watch the full KCAL CBS LA segment here, and read all about how to take these habits into every season of life in my latest newsletter here.

Wishing you a holiday season filled with joy, intention, movement, nourishment, and connection.

Love, Jess
