My internist told me to take fish oil tablets to boost mood and overall health but I never really got in the habit. This winter I am taking them throughout the day. So far, so good. Keeping them in the freezer makes them more digestible, thank goodness.
The small light therapy device I use is a great help in feeling more awake in the morning. I think I’m ready to graduate to the big desk light—I’m going to take the plunge and invest. Maybe it will give me a nice tan!
An excellent resource that talks about the modern approach to mood therapies and how some natural and practical techniques can be just as if not more effective. Inspired me to spend more time outside.
