Feeling the weight of winter on your shoulders? You're not alone. In this episode of 'Sweat & Reflect', host Meredith Coviello dives into five practical ways to lift your spirits during the colder months. If you're grappling with seasonal depression or just need a boost to get through the holiday hustle, Meredith's got your back. First up, light therapy. Meredith swears by it and believes it can be a game-changer for those dark, dreary days.
Imagine waking up and feeling the sun's warmth even when it's gloomy outside. Next, she talks about the importance of sticking to a sleep schedule. It might sound simple, but maintaining consistent wake-up and bedtimes can do wonders for your mood and energy levels. Meredith also emphasizes the power of getting outside. Even a short 10-15 minute walk can refresh your mind and body. She’s not just talking about exercise; she means soaking in some natural light and fresh air.
Speaking of movement, regular physical activity is another key tip. Whether it's a full workout or just some stretching, moving your body helps shake off that winter lethargy. Lastly, she touches on the benefits of vitamin D. With less sunlight in winter, supplementing your diet with vitamin D can help keep those blues at bay. Meredith's advice is straightforward and easy to implement, making it perfect for anyone looking to improve their well-being during the winter months.
