Most of us try to snuggle the winter away in our blankets. But that just means we miss out on all the Winter fun. Here are 7 ways to beat the winter blues that let you live it up and enjoy the cold.
1. Stay Active
It may sound cliché but sleeping in during daytime can be a major factor in degrading your health during winters. Go outside, run a mile, have a hot chocolate or go on a long bike ride with your friends. You’ll see a diffrent side of this season and it will make you love it a little more.
2. Take a vacation.
Planning a trip during winters is definitely uncommon, but it’s worthwile to go to an exotic location during this time of the year. No matter you’re taking a trip within your state or outside the country, it will wash away your winter blues.
3. Take a vitamin D supplement
During summers we don’t have to worry about the deficiency of vitamin D, but with the sun gone, it would be advisable to keep some Vit D on you.
4. Eat less sugar.
Having high quantity of sugar in your diet will make you sleepy and lethargic. It’s not advisable to cut out all the sugar from your diet, but reducing it will give you a higher energy level.
5. Wear bright colours.
Believe it or not it’s gonna help you in getting over your winter blues. We believe what we see, and adding some florals and colours to your wardrobe won’t hurt during this grey season.
6. Sign up for something that you wanted to do for a long time.
It may sound impossible, but in winters you have more time for everything which includes things that you would love to do. Wheather it’s the french cooking class you’re desperate to join or the softball classess you’re dying to start, do it now and you’ll make the best out of it.
7. Lastly, adjust you’re couch in front of your fireplace, make a nice cup of hot chocolate, read a good book to read and then sleep coocooned in layers of soft, warm blankets.
