Now is the winter of our discontent. Here are six ways you can overcome the seasonal slump
With short days and colder temperatures, many of us begin to feel the weight of the winter blues. The lack of sunlight can disrupt our circadian rhythms and reduce serotonin levels, leading to feelings of sadness and lethargy. This seasonal slump can diminish our energy levels, dampen our mood and make the winter months feel interminable.
For those who haven’t experienced feelings like this before, it can be concerning. However, it’s important to recognise that these feelings are common and can be managed. By understanding the causes and implementing proactive strategies, we can combat the winter blues and maintain a positive outlook.
