Happy Winter Solstice!

Today is Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year in the northern hemisphere.

For Seasonal Affective Disorder sufferers who are of the "Glass is half empty" mindset, you may feel overwhelmed and depressed since we are now at the point when there is such a very small amount of daylight. I, however always look at this day as a cause of celebration. It's all downhill from here.

Although Winter only officialy begins today, with each passing day the amount of daylight minutes (and hours) will only increase. There is finally light at the end of the tunnel!

Reflect on this when you are feeling the pangs of Winter Blues or SAD, and you may find yourself feeling recharged. In the mean time, continue with your treatments, light box therapy, medication, whatever you have been doing, and focus on the longer days ahead.

Good Health And Happiness,
