Description

It’s that time of the year again when the cold starts kicking in, making us lose a lot of the motivation that we’ve been building all year. The truth is that you don’t want to just survive waiting for the next season to come by, you need to form habits that will keep you living and thriving. How then do you improve the seasonal depression that comes with winter?
In this episode of the Live Your Personal Best podcast, I share some motivational hacks to help you overcome the seasonal depression that comes with winter. Listen in to learn how developing habits that nourish your physical being will also improve your mental and emotional states. 
Key Takeaways:
·       Whatever activity you’re trying to do right now, you can just add in the element of the outdoor to get your sunshine. 
·       Think of choosing and eating seasonal foods that are still going to nourish you during winter if you don’t feel like eating healthy. 
·       Make commitments and to-do lists that you can follow through and avoid overcommitting. 
Episode Timeline:
·       [2:42] Don’t be fooled that you can’t get in the sunshine just because there’s no sunshine right now. 
·       [6:06] Focus on eating seasonal foods suitable for the winter season. 
·       [8:33] Follow through with your commitments to become better.
