What can you do about SAD?
Seasonal Affective Disorder
Whether you get the milder version
were likely to get here or the more
extreme one you may encounter if
you spend a significant amount of
your time at higher latitudes?
The first thing you can do is to
increase your exposure to
sunshine.
Weve got plenty of sunshine, so
make the most of it! Even if youre
a bit downcast and despondent for
some other reason, sunshine does
stimulate your body to produce
those feel-good chemicals
A walk at lunchtime if you work in
an office might be all thats needed.
While you always need to be careful
and take precautions so you dont
get sunburned,
you need a bit of sunlight straight
onto your skin, without sunscreen or
any of the other slip-slop-slap-wrap
precautions  five minutes in the
late afternoon or first thing in the
morning wont hurt you and will do
you good.
What can you do about sad
Another thing you can to is to open
the curtains more. This way, your
body will perceive the natural light
and respond to it.
What can you do about sad
Some people suggest sleeping with
your curtains open, but this can be
counterproductive, as darkness is
needed for a good nights sleep.
Diet can also play a role.
Researchers found that there was
one exception in the Nordic
countries when it came to SAD:
Iceland.
Iceland had the high latitudes and a
similar genetic mix to Norway and
Sweden, etc. but didnt have the
same incidence of SAD.
The answer was probably fish,
which the Icelandic people ate a lot
more of. Here, were talking about
cold-water oily fish like mackerel
and salmon.
What can you do about sad
As well as exercising in the open
air, relaxing in the outdoors is also
good  and its good for more
mental issues than SAD.
What can you do about sad
Sit somewhere outdoors, watch the
clouds roll by, listen to the sounds
of the natural world around you
(even if this is just a sparrow or the
leaves rustling in the trees).
Leave your smart phone in your bag
or pocket and switch off. Itll do you
a lot of good.
Also, to totally overcome SAD, talk
to a Hypnotherapist Brisbane. They
can help alleviate your depression
or anxiety
