How to deal with holiday stress, Danish-style https://www.tucsonsentinel.com/opinion/report/121522_holiday_stress_op/how-deal-with-holiday-stress-danish-style/
The holidays often involve jubilant gift exchanges, renewed connections with family and friends, and treasured traditions, but can also be accompanied by a host of stressors - perhaps people can find balance by taking a few cultural cues from the Danes.

"Importantly, the word overskud is also used to clearly communicate when people cannot tackle an event, task or obligation.
Instead of saying “I’m swamped,” a Dane might say they don’t have enough “overskud” to go to a party or meet for a glass of gløgg, a mulled Christmas wine. It’s basically a shorthand way to say, in a nonjudgmental way, that something sounds like fun, and you would love to do it, but you simply don’t have the energy."
