Having winter blues can be a discouraging and demoralizing experience. And when we see those first signs of spring, it can feel as is all of nature is trying to tell us that winter is over. And it begins to be over on the outside. But not so much on the inside. Well, I'm going through it with you. And I don't just want to tell you this will work or try that because it will work. I want to encourage you. For those moments when nothing seems to be working. Don't give up, beloveds! Stay with me next month as we look at what you can do to make spring better.

Reminder: Tell Me How I Can Help

P.S. Happy International Hygge Day!!
#InternationalHyggeDay

"I can’t believe there isn’t an official International Hygge Day already!! So right here and now I am claiming to be the originator of International Hygge Day on the 28th February."
~ Jo Kneale, How to Hygge the British Way, in 2017

50-Second Celebration Video

Recently, one of my favorite bloggers commented on one of my blog posts and told me that my blog posts make her happy (love that!) and said she hoped that I was finding happiness this winter, too. Because it's one thing to write about how others can create hygge moments but another, altogether, to create them yourself. So I have wanted to share exactly how I'm doing, so you'll know I am practicing what I preach & telling it like it is.

Shadow Boxing with February

"SAD symptoms are associated with seasonal changes in light, often occurring only during the autumn and winter months, with the most difficult months being January and February. Outside of the winter months, SAD can be triggered by long stretches of cloudy weather or working year-round in a dark environment without natural sunlight." -EcoHealth Wellness Center & Detox Spa

The Plan When You Have a Really Hard Winter Week

Hygge can't fix everything, but I still believe we should throw ourselves at it shamelessly, with everything we've got. February days might be grey but hygge will give them moments of light and that's everything!  Don't you agree?
