HOW TO BEAT THE WINTER BLUES

Suffering from the post-Christmas January blues? Learn to love January by embracing it as a time to revive & relax!

Relax: make time to chill

Yes, it’s good to get a fresh-air fix and get your body moving, but also relaxing has a big part to play in emerging from January feeling good. There’s a reason why animals hibernate in winter, so don’t always fight the instinct to curl up, get warm, batten down the hatches and slow down. OK, it’s not always possible to totally check out, in-between work, kids, life, BUT when you can, give into your inner desire to hibernate occasionally. If you can’t spend vast amounts of time hibernating, then make it a ritual. Get warm, light candles, run a bath filled with delicious smelling products like shower gels and hand & body lotions and wrap yourself in a comforting dressing gown. Basically snuggle, cuddle and get cosy.
