Help For Depression.

Do you feel low in the winter months? Lack of sunshine and shorter daylight hours can lead to lethargy and a general feeling of being slightly below par!

Here are a few things you can do to help....

Try to exercise daily. A walk with a friend, weight training, or Yoga will all give not only the benefit of the exercise, but help put your life in a better perspective, and it has been proven that exercise actually elevates your mood.

Make sure you are having sufficient rest - you may need more than usual at this time.

Deep breathing, meditation or a soothing bath with essential oils of Lavender and Jasmine I find are all wonderful "mood busters".

Herbs and supplements such as St. John's Wort, SAMe, Gingko Biloba, and Ginseng can be a great benefit, but do consult your Health Care Practitioner if you are considering beginning a course with any mood elevators.

And remember, spring is only just around the corner!
