How to Deal with Seasonal Depression
For most people, Fall and Winter is a cherished time marked by holidays, comfy sweaters, and pumpkin spice lattes. For some, however, it means dealing with Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), a type of depression that coincides with shorter and colder days, that can leave you feeling hopeless and lethargic.
How Setting Boundaries can Help you Relax
While this may not be the time of year you want to hear it, we all need to relax more. With everyone working more, tragedies happening all around the world that impact us deeply, and everything else we juggle day-to-day in life, it's no wonder we're all exhausted and sleepless.

There are other ways to combat dry skin this winter season that maybe you haven't even thought of yet.

Obviously if you feel you are seriously struggling with mental health issues it’s important to contact a professional, but individual self-care is also a big part of taking care of yourself. Here are a few of our fall habits for those with (and without) SAD.
