Disorder Through Yoga

The first thing to remember when depression hits during the Holiday
Season is to remember that you are not alone. Many people encounter mood
disorders during the festive season.
It is just too much. We are hit with advertising, swelling budgets for
gift giving and other activitie with euphoria everywhere. It is quite
unnatural to suddenly swell into a merry mood when the harsh reality of
life is here as well. Here are five ways to beat the seasonal affective
disorder:
1. Breathe and stretch. Proper breathing techniques taught to you by a
qualified instructor can relieve a lot of anxiety.
2. Good posture is a must. When we stand and walk straight our backs
will thank us. Also our breathing improves and we are feeling pretty good
about ourselves.
3. See a personal trainer to schedule a fitness program that is tuned
to your body, mind and spirit. Most trainers give free consultations.
4. Give yourself time off for good behaviour. It is okay to just sit at
home and chill. Try to schedule down time.
5. Make sure you schedule your shopping trips when the population will
be low. Most malls open early during the season. Try shopping first thing
in the morning. The sales staff will be fresh too.
