If flying, make sure to get to the airport in time because the lines will be long.  Give yourself enough time to get to the gate for check-in.  Avoid the stress and possible rage.  People who wait get stressed and tired.  Instead, try what our neighbors in Canada are becoming known to do: join in a singalong.  A group of passengers flying out of Toronto could have been upset when their flight was delayed.  But instead they decided to pass their time while waiting at the gate with a fun and happy singalong.  The crowd around them cheered and asked for more, so they continued to sing.

SINGING HAS A CALMING EFFECT

So, if delayed – the best advice is to sing! Singing with others is scientifically proven to have a calming effect.  Over 32.5 million adults sing in choruses each year and in doing so: it relieves anxiety, lowers stress and elevates endorphins.  That’s almost as many singing adults as there are Canadians!  So, take advice from our neighbors in the Great North.  Sing along with the rest of the motorists in traffic or passengers waiting at the gate this holiday season.  Christmas travel can be fun, even when it’s a slog.  Make it a New Year’s Resolution!
