Make the holidays magical!
The holiday season is here, bringing with it the sights, sounds, and traditions that make this time of year so magical. For many of us, the holidays are a chance to recreate the joy we felt as children, whether it’s through the twinkle of festive lights, the aroma of holiday baking, or cherished family traditions.
In my family, we have held onto a lot of traditions, but one of my favorite is getting dressed up for church to celebrate the birth of Jesus and after getting together with friends and family to eat, drink and be merry on Christmas Eve. These moments remind me of the magic of the season and the importance of creating joyful memories with loved ones.
This month, if you don't have any traditions, I encourage you to make some, however small, and spread the joy of the season around like wildflowers. I know this time of year I feel an immense amount of gratitude for all of the blessings that I have received.
While this season is joyful for many, it can also be a difficult time for those who are grieving, lonely, or in need. In the spirit of the season, let’s come together as a community to extend kindness and compassion to those who may be struggling. Whether it’s donating to a local charity, volunteering your time, or simply checking in on a neighbor, every act of generosity makes a difference.
May your holidays be filled with love, peace, and the joy of giving. Cheers!

KEEP YOUR EYES Merry & Bright
ELEVATED EYE CARE SHARES HOW TO PROTECT YOUR VISION FROM WINTER DRYNESS AND SCREEN FATIGUE
ARTICLE BY KELLY SHEARING PHOTOGRAPHY BY ELEVATED EYE CARE
Between binging holiday shows, scrolling for gift deals, and spending long hours in dry, cozy rooms, winter can take a real toll on your eyes. According to Drs. Kymber and Jennifer Blaschke of Elevated Eye Care, this season brings a unique mix of challenges (from dry eyes to digital fatigue), and it’s worth giving your vision a little extra love.
“Dry eye is one of the biggest issues we see,” Dr. Jennifer explains. “When heaters kick on, the air loses humidity, and our eyes lose moisture.” Add in cedar allergies, especially here in Texas, and you’ve got a recipe for redness and irritation. Treatments can range from simple eye drops to high-tech solutions like autologous serum drops, which use your own blood serum to reduce inflammation. “We tailor each plan to the patient,” says Dr. Kymber. “There’s no one-size-fits-all fix.”
THE SCREEN TIME STRAIN
During the holidays, many of us find ourselves curled up watching marathons or hunting for online sales. “We blink less when we’re on screens,” Dr. Kymber notes, “which contributes to dryness and eye fatigue.” Their go-to advice? The 20-20-20 rule: Every 20 minutes, take a 20-second break and look 20 feet away. It gives your visual system a reset and your eyes a much-needed break.
They also recommend using your device’s “night mode” or bluelight filter. “Blue light doesn’t damage your eyes,” Dr. Jennifer clarifies, “but it messes with your sleep-wake cycle.” Cutting it back can help your eyes feel more relaxed and keep your circadian rhythm in check.
TRAVEL & WINTER COMFORT
If your holiday plans involve flying or road trips, your eyes may need a little extra protection. Airplane cabins have low humidity, and fans or vents blowing in your face can worsen dryness. “Always pack preservative-free artificial tears,” says Dr. Jennifer. “And wear glasses instead of contacts when you travel. A sleep mask helps, too. It keeps air from drying your eyes while you rest.”
Even at home, a humidifier can make a world of difference. “Especially if you sleep with a fan or heater running,” Dr. Kymber adds. “It’s all about restoring moisture.”
HEALTHY EYES, HEALTHY YOU
“The eyes really are a window to your health,” says Dr. Jennifer. Optometrists can detect conditions like diabetes and hypertension by examining the blood vessels in the back of the eye. That’s why yearly exams matter, even if your vision seems fine. “People often wait until there’s a problem,” Dr. Kymber says, “but prevention is always easier than treatment.”
Both doctors are also passionate about myopia management, especially for kids. “We’re seeing more nearsightedness because children spend more time indoors and on devices,” Dr. Jennifer explains. Simple winter habits, like getting outside for some brisk daylight play, keeping reading and screens at the right distance, and regular eye checkups, can slow progression and protect long-term vision. They also suggest keeping cozy holiday routines in mind. Take screen breaks during your holiday crafts, protect eyes from indoor heater dryness with humidifiers, and remember UV-blocking sunglasses for winter walks or snowy activities, or just being outside in general. Polarized sunglasses are especially helpful for reflections off of snow.
THE GIFT OF VISION
If there’s one message these doctors want people to take into the holiday season, it’s this: Eye care is self-care. From moisturizing eye drops to UV-blocking sunglasses, small habits make a big difference. “Your eyes guide everything you do,” says Dr. Kymber. “Take care of them, and they’ll take care of you.”
Holiday Eye TLC
1. Follow the 20-20-20 rule for screen breaks.
2. Use preservative-free artificial tears morning and night.
3. Stay hydrated and add a humidifier indoors.
4. Wear sunglasses, even on cloudy days.
5. Keep glasses handy for flights and dry winter travel.
Newman & Company makes self-care the most thoughtful gift of the season
Unwrap a Little Luxury
The holidays are all about showing love, slowing down, and treating yourself (or someone special) to a little luxury. This season, Newman & Company’s 12 Days of Christmas Sale (Dec. 9–21) makes gifting easy with 20% off all gift certificates. Whether you’re shopping for relaxation, beauty, or results that glow long past the holidays, there’s something here for everyone.

Indulge in Facials and Lashes
Few things say “you deserve it” quite like an hour spent under soft lights, wrapped in warm towels, and pampered by a skilled aesthetician. Facials are the perfect pick for anyone who loves a moment of calm and care. They leave skin soft, refreshed, and radiant. Let’s be honest, everyone enjoys a good facial massage. For a simple but stunning lift, eyelash services are another can’t-miss option. They’re painless, require no downtime, and give an instant confidence boost. A lash nap followed by bright, fluttery lashes? That’s the kind of magic every busy friend or loved one deserves.
Gift Certificates for Beauty that Lasts
For those who want results that go beyond relaxation, a gift certificate is the way to go. It can be applied toward any service or treatment offered at Newman & Co, letting your loved one choose what fits their goals or needs best. Because aesthetic treatments are cumulative, a gift certificate gives the recipient the flexibility to plan their journey. And during the 12 Days of Christmas Sale, that same certificate stretches even further. A $500 budget buys $600 in value, making it the ultimate smart splurge for someone who loves to feel their best.
Skincare Sets that Keep Giving
For glowing results that last long after the tinsel comes down, the ZO Glow Holiday Gift Set is a perfect match. Valued at around $400 but priced at just $149, it includes a gentle cleanser, toner pads, vitamin C, sunscreen, and a chic bag—already wrapped and ready to gift. It’s ideal for anyone starting a medical-grade skincare routine or wanting to maintain post-treatment results. Healthy skin truly is the gift that keeps giving.

2) FUTURE FUN.
Browse winter or spring events; snag tickets to enjoy with recipients.
3) GENEROSITY.
Donations make heartfelt, thoughtful ideas.
4) TRAVEL.
Gift a loved one with a trip.

Is a recipient busy, overloaded and overworked? Treat them to a whole home cleaning before or after the holiday.
6) LOVE OF LEARNING.
If a loved one is planning international travel, grab them a gift card for a language learning app.
7) THOUGHTFUL MESSAGES.
Ask friends and family to record loving messages on cellphones; combine recordings using a video app for meaningful holiday greeting.
8) BON APPÉTIT.
Sign up special someone for cooking class regarding favorite cuisine, or cuisine they struggle to make.
9) RECIPE BOOK.
Gather traditional family recipes and create printed books for guests as priceless keepsakes.
