Chase the Winter Blues Away with Relaxation and Meditation
I start hearing it in the fall – people saying, “Uh-oh, winter is coming…” Does this sound familiar? Sure, winter brings in colder and darker days, frustration with commutes, and the uncomfortable places within ourselves that pop their heads out to be noticed and healed. You probably have already heard and “know” all of the things you can do to feel good and enjoy this time of year, right?
