The Simple Christmas Planner
A workbook and planner to help you plan and organise a simple, stress-free but meaningful Christmas and holidays.
LET ME ASK YOU SOME QUESTIONS…
How do you feel about Christmas right now? Be honest.
Does it feel stressful, rushed, and overwhelming? Like you’re running from one thing to the next, ticking off endless To Do lists, and barely finding time to enjoy the magic of the season? Maybe you’re juggling family commitments, shopping for gifts, worrying about finances and decorating the home while trying to keep some semblance of normal life going.
It’s exhausting, isn’t it? And let’s be real, that’s not how most of us want Christmas to feel.
IMAGINE CHRISTMAS A DIFFERENT WAY
Now, picture this: a Christmas where you feel calm, organised, and fully present.
You’re sipping a hot chocolate by the tree, knowing your gifts are sorted, wrapped, and ready to go. You’ve planned your festive meals ahead of time, and your budget feels manageable and under control. The home feels cosy and welcoming without excess clutter getting in your way. You have time for the things that truly matter – laughing with loved ones, enjoying your favourite traditions, and making meaningful memories.
Doesn’t that sound like the Christmas we’d all rather enjoy?
“The way you spend Christmas is far more important than how much.”
– Henry David Thoreau

Hi, I'm Antonia and I'm the creator of Balance Through Simplicity, a blog dedicated to helping you declutter your home, simplify life and live intentionally. This is a space that offers practical tips and easy-to-follow guidance to create a meaningful life you love.
For many years I juggled raising a young family with a demanding job. I ignored the warning signs of doing too much for too long until a melt-down at work forced me to re-evaluate my life and my misplaced priorities.
Through a lot of research and a fair amount of trial and error, I learnt that simplifying my life was the key to an easier, less stressful but much more fulfilling life for myself and my family.
Over the years I've turned my passion for the simple life into a website which encourages and teaches many others to simplify their lives too.
