The packages are unwrapped. The decorations have been taken down and are now in their boxes and stored in the attic. The new year has been celebrated. The first week back to work after a holiday season and the winter depression is ever present.
Is it the lack of sunlight? Is it the ice, snow, and cold temperatures that seem to put the big freeze on our emotional well being? Here are a few tips to help remedy those January blues.
· Plan a summer vacation. There is nothing better to put you in a better frame of mind. If you are a beach vacationer, there is nothing more refreshing in January than to plan every aspect of your beach trip right down to the flip flops you intend to pack.
· Get rid of the “clutter” in your life by organizing your drawers and closets. The freedom you will attain by this simple task will be positively liberating.
· Take at least 30 minutes a day to read your bible. Select uplifting books to study such as Psalms, Proverbs, and Galatians. It will be inspirational on the coldest winter’s day.
The priority is to take control and do not let yourself become self absorbed into those depression filled thoughts. Be positive and pledge to do something to resolve that “blah” feeling.
Blessings to each of you for a great January!
