It is a dark, grey time of year. Even though we know spring is approaching, evidenced by emerging bulbs and fattening buds, the overcast skies and damp weather conspire to keep spirits low.
At such times it is important to keep energy levels high to ward off the seasonal blues, but how can we do this?
The following is a simple technique, which is easy to follow.
Think about what gives you energy and what takes energy. Make two lists one for the +tives and one for the –tives. My lists look something like this:
Positives:
Hearing from a friend
Having a reiki treatment
Walking my dog
Being up to date with my work
Having lots of fresh fruit
Having a haircut
Listening to uplifting music
Keeping promises
Eating 3 light meals spaced throughout the day
Negatives:
Not speaking to anyone all day
Not bothering to put my make up on
Not getting any fresh air
Being behind with my work
Drinking alcohol
Pulling my hair back into a pony tail
Listening to news reports
Breaking promises
Constantly grazing
You can use these if they apply to you and add some of your own. Each day do more of the things on your +tive list and less of things on your –tive list and you will find your mood lifted and energy levels increased. How simple can that be?
