Today is âBlue Mondayâ, they said. Itâs supposedly the âsaddest dayâ of the year. Itâs not real. If only we have one really depressing day and be over it at the beginning of the yearâwouldnât that be grand?â .â .â SADâor Seasonal Affective Disorderâis real, on the other hand. For a lot of people, winter is a really hard time for emotional and mental health. January and February are particularly difficult due to lack of sunlight.â .â .â Having spent more than half my life in North America now, Iâve become used to it. Doing something creative helps beat the blues, and so does meeting up with friends and seeing family. Sure, some âself careâ bubble baths and spa time are useful, too. Sometimes the best type of care we can do is to be kinder to ourselves. â¤ď¸â .â .â #bluemonday #beattheblues #beatthewinterblues #creativesselfcare #practicenotperfection #artastherapy #arteveryday #keeppracticing https://www.instagram.com/p/B7jzUKlhLL_/?igshid=jb20cla67w97
