Q: I get really down at this time of year. How do I pick myself up so I can enjoy the March break with my kids?

A: Many people are physically and emotionally affected during the winter months. Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) often occurs during periods of low sunlight, which throws off your body clock. There are many things you can do to counter its potentially devastating effects. Exercise stimulates circulation and releases substances that can lift your mood. Deep breathing, yoga, and stretching help replenish vital energy and balance. Now’s the time to take a good look at you’re eating habits, to ensure you’re not suffering from food intolerances. To brighten your outlook on life, try Back Flower remedies. Join a club, take up a hobby, socialize! If you’re going away on vacation, be sure to stock up on nutrients to boost your immunity, especially when eating foreign foods. One route of prevention is through homeopathy. A licensed Naturopathic Doctor will guide you in making the best lifestyle choices. You owe it to yourself – Enjoy life!!
