We often stress about things we can't change, but what if we shifted that energy towards what we can control?

By focusing on what is within our power (our actions, attitudes, and responses) we can navigate challenges with greater clarity and calm and let go of external factors beyond our control.

What else would you add to this list? 🌤🌱

Seasonal Affective Disorder
Are you SAD in winter?

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a type of depression that happens to people in winter. Rarely, some are affected in summer only, but as a rule, SAD seems to be related to shorter days with less sunlight. SAD tends to start in adulthood and affects women slightly more than men. Like all depression, it is not something you can just shake off easily, and is likely due to a chemical change in the brain. Melatonin, a sleep-related hormone, has been linked to SAD. The body naturally makes more melatonin when it’s dark. When the days are shorter and darker, more melatonin is made. This may affect our mood and other neurotransmitters like serotonin.....Continue reading https://www.kensingtonpsychology.com.au/post/seasonal-affective-disorder
