When Your Body Gets The Blues

There is a major time crunch going on and sadly, I think it might be here to stay. Check out this book by Marie-Annette Brown and Jo Robinson "When Your Body Gets the Blues" for their 3 simple strategies that will get you feeling better without hours at the gym, unless you like that sort of thing. (I certainly do!!) Get enough light everyday, go for a walk and take your vitamins. Easy as 1-2-3. Since we have just passed the longest day of the year, light isn't much of a problem yet, so just enjoy your walk and take your vitamins. Easy as 1-2. They have lots of great tips in their book and on their site and have done studies of all these lifestyle improvements to back up their recommendations. Take the quizz too!!

I feel so much better when the sun is out. On a day like today, which is bright, sunny and dry, everything seems OK in the world. In the middle of February, when the sun disappears before 5:00, I'm a sad sack. Sam-e helps, along with exercise and vitamins. I start taking sam-e in December and finish in May. Has anyone else's SAD been improved with sam-e?

I don't have personal experience with Sam-e but have read good things about it- it is also good for arthritis.

Have you tried a light box in the winter?
