We have some ideas on how to make this season your brightest. So go ahead — read on to discover ways that you can maximize your joy this holiday season.
Experience deep joy daily
Providing a joyful lifestyle is intentional at Sterling Ranch. We’re fortunate to have a dedicated lifestyle director right here in the neighborhood — it means there is always something to do. From crafts and game nights to decorating contests and learning opportunities, the event calendar keeps residents engaged in community. All this activity brings happiness and smiles — and it complements the actions we can each take to spark joy in our own lives and that of others.
Want to experience a deeply joyful week? Check out these inspiring ideas.
Day 1: Decorate your home
Now is a perfect occasion to dress up your home and show your style! Hang some sparkly lights here; embellish with garland and ribbon there . . . the holidays are such a magical time to show off the beauty of your home and the amazing family that lives in it.
Day 2: Go caroling
Did you know December 20 is National Go Caroling Day? Now you do! Wrap yourself in a warm jacket, bundle up the kids and don your best festive hats as you make your way throughout the community’s unique villages, bringing the spirit of song to neighbors. Visit those you know and those you’ve yet to connect with — caroling is a perfect excuse for that overdue introduction. Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la!
Day 3: Embrace a spirit of giving
Giving to others is a win-win scenario. It brings deep joy to the giver and much-needed resources to the receiver. Whether it’s food, clothing, money, time or simple kindness, spend this day focusing on others — you just may be surprised to find you’re the ultimate beneficiary.
Day 4: Soak up the sun
At Sterling Ranch, we are surrounded by stunning beauty and a long list of recreational possibilities. With 300+ days of sunshine, our invigorating climate means families can enjoy the great outdoors year-round. It’s a well-known fact that Vitamin D boosts mood — and the sun is a natural source of this life-enhancing vitamin. Take this day to explore the neighborhood’s internal trails or nearby state parks — Chatfield and Roxborough — and experience an uplifted mood.
Day 5: Spend time together
It’s no secret: family time is time well spent. There are so many benefits to engaging with loved ones, least of all the great pleasure it brings laughing and having fun with those you care most about. At Sterling Ranch, the list of activities to enjoy with family and friends is endless. Hiking, biking, baking, sipping hot drinks, playing trivia, watching live music — enjoy it all right here in the community, surrounded by your favorite people.
