With all the great qualities that this state has\nto offer, it also comes with a long, cold winter. This weather typically forces\nus to be inside more often. The lack of sunlight makes the brain overwork to\nproduce the hormone melatonin, which regulates our sleep patterns and body\nclock.<sup>1 <\/sup>When this regulation is disrupted, it can cause depression,\nleading to seasonal affective disorder. Dangerously, about half a million\nAmericans get seasonal affective disorder every year.<sup>2<\/sup> Instead of\nleaving the state, complaining, or hoping winter will never happen again, make\nthe best of the winters, and combat the stress and anxiety that comes with\nbeing cooped up inside. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This time of year, because of the combination of a cold\nweather and New Year\u2019s resolutions, the gyms are typically packed. Getting a\nworkout in is important but including an outdoor activity has more of an\nadvantage than just helping you lose weight! Try a couple of these ideas to add\nsunlight into your routine:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Get out the equipment or go to a place you can\nrent it to sled, cross-country ski, snowshoe, or ice skate. Make it a goal this\nyear to do one of these activities by finding a local instructor to give you a\nlesson to prevent an injury. Adding these into your exercise routine will bring\nthe benefit of exercise and sunshine for years to come.<\/li><li>Take some time to just step outside and smell\nthe fresh air. Research has found that being outside for as little as five\nminutes can improve your mood, motivation, and self-esteem.<sup>2<\/sup> Whether\nit is walking the dog, going to get the mail, or walking to your car from the\ngrocery store, take a little time to soak in the sun.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though the seasonal affective disorder is common, it\ndoes not need to be the norm. Dealing with this depression can often be\ncombated by managing stress. Here are a couple of easy stress relieving tactics\nto put into habit when being outside is not an option because of time or\nextreme temperatures:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li><strong>Meditate in the car<\/strong><em>.<\/em> Take slow\ndeep breaths and be aware of your body. Try thinking of a word that relaxes\nyou, such as \u201clove\u201d or \u201cpeace.\u201d<sup>4<\/sup><\/li><li><strong>Listen to calming music.<\/strong> Find music that\nincludes waves crashing, birds chirping or wind in the trees. These sounds have\nbeen shown to reduce anxiety, blood pressure and heart rate.<sup>5<\/sup> <\/li><li><strong>Recognize what you are grateful for<\/strong>.\nSpend a little time in the morning or when you are overwhelmed to write down a\nfew things that you are grateful for to cancel out the anxiety. It is also\nuplifting to look back at your past notes to remember what is important to you.<sup>5\n<\/sup><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>However busy life may get or as many excuses that you may come up with, these are easy ways to keep your mental and physical health in check. Our long and cold winters are not going away anytime soon, so it is crucial that we find a way to mange it. Making a goal this year to add one of these into your daily routine can help boost your mood, give you more energy and ultimately lead you to a happy and healthier life! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In health,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Hillary Rotunda<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liveyourlifept.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/image-3.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5176\" width=\"158\" height=\"158\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liveyourlifept.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/image-3.png 150w, https:\/\/liveyourlifept.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/image-3-100x100.png 100w, https:\/\/liveyourlifept.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/image-3-80x80.png 80w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 158px) 100vw, 158px\" \/><figcaption><strong>Hillary Rotunda, B.A.<\/strong><br><strong>LYL Executive Assistant<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting from when she was a little girl, Hillary\u2019s passion has always been in living a healthy way of life through movement and eating right. She played many sports when growing up but ended up sticking with volleyball and softball through college at Concordia College in Moorhead. While at Concordia, she earned a double major in exercise science and nutrition, graduating in 2015. After moving to the cities from my long-time home of the Fargo area, she was not quite sure what her passion was until she started working as a personal trainer. She learned from brilliant personal trainers and physical therapists, which led to her discovery of corrective exercise being her passion. She has decided to finish up the classes needed to apply for physical therapy school, which she plans on doing soon! She is excited to be at Live Your Life Physical Therapy to learn as much as she can from Dr. Norman and all the physical therapist on staff!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>References<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><sup>1<\/sup>Kirchheimer, Sid. \u201cSeasonal Depression: Beating Winter Sadness and Moodiness.\u201d WebMD, WebMD, 2004, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.webmd.com\/depression\/features\/beating-winters-woes\">www.webmd.com\/depression\/features\/beating-winters-woes<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><sup>2 <\/sup>MacDonald, Ann. \u201cFeeling S.A.D.?
