I wanted to share with everyone an article about Seasonal Depression. It affects more people than you would think. You might even be one of the people. Did you know that exercise is one of the best ways to counteract the negative feelings of the winter blues. I share because I care…now get to the gym and get happy! Here is part of the article and the link: Exercise and its benefits for the blues Exercise has proven to help people combat feeling of the blues in the winter. Not only does exercise improve mood, but it also has been shown to reduce stress, which often exacerbates feelings of depression brought on by the winter blues. Studies had pointed out that one hour doing aerobic exercise outside (even with a cloudy skies overhead) had the same benefits as 2.5 hours of light treatment indoors. Aerobic exercise can help a person rid themselves of the feelings of depression. Briskly walking, taking a run, skiing, sledding and having a snowball fight have all be proven to help suffers of the blues feel better.
