We’re a little more than half way through
February but the days are so cold and the nights are worse. Walking and
snowshoeing are my favorite ways to deal with winter blahs, but it’s been so
icy this year, it hasn’t always been possible.
So if taking advantage of the snow and ice isn’t on your agenda, try
some of these ideas:
Increase the light: Open the curtains and let
the sun shine in. Sit close to windows and if need be consider an artificial
light such as a light box.
Eat a little Chocolate: A delicious piece of
dark chocolate-the darker the better-helps to improve your mood. However, avoid
the simple carbs, sugars and fried foods. They can actually make you feel worse
Walk in place: Lots of on-line videos to follow.
Exercising in bright light definitely improves ones mood and it gets even
better when you crank up the tunes.
Try the freebies: Check your town’s local media
papers, bulletin boards and social media sites for free activities. Could be an interesting new class that you
may enjoy.
Start an indoor hobby.
Try Qigong: I’m a big fan of Eight Brocades.
