Lets be real with the cold weather comes the desire to cuddle up in the blankets and self-neglect the needs of the body. Even more so with the beast sitting on your chest that thrives as the temperature drops, depression.
However, there are ways to combat this potential decline
Identifying Signals
We know we’d like to think it easy to know when you’re depressed but it can creep up in various miniscule ways that interlink.
What’s key is identifying the signals and making the necessary steps (no matter how small) to combating depression.
The signs can be as “small” as:
- Constant fatigue/ zero motivation
- Mood swings/ emotional battery on 0%
- Too little/too much sleep
- Craving heavy, comfort foods
- Not connecting with things normally enjoyed
Movement = Improvement
“Discipline is the greatest form of self-love” – Kierra C T Banks
Now, we’re not saying enter the closest marathon and RUN.
ANY movement will do, be it a quick stretch or a 5-min workout both of which you can find on gr8r.fit. What’s important is to get moving.
With movement comes
- Serotonin and endorphins (natural mood lifters)
- Lower stress levels
- Sleep and Focus Improvement
- Reconnection with your body and breath
With regular movement comes regular improvement that your mind can’t help but follow.
Thus shifting your situation from surviving to thriving.
