Ways To Combat Seasonal Blues

HappyLight (a huge thank you to Rebecca for telling me about these types of lights)

Spend some quiet time meditating and studying the bible

Watch something hilarious (I’ve been loving Vine compilation videos on Youtube lately, as well as anything by GassyMexican and episodes of Bob’s Burgers on Netflix)

Have a good heart-to-heart with a loved one or close friend

Clean/organize anything and everything

Remember what you’re truly grateful for

Make your before-bed routine a true treat, full of pampering and relaxing, so that you actually look forward to nighttime instead of dreading it

If you have a pet like a dog or cat, spend some time giving them snuggles and playing with them

Exercise – even if it’s something light like some housework or a walk around your neighborhood

Start practicing a hobby that makes you happy (planning is my new obsession – decorating my planner every Sunday for the coming week is so therapeutic and relaxing)

Do you suffer from seasonal affective disorder? What do you do to stay in a happy mood?
