Tip of the Week

- Get more light. Use full-spectrum light bulbs, which are brighter than our everyday lights. Keep your curtains open during the day.
- Eat plenty of complex carbohydrates such as fresh fruits and vegetables.
- Get plenty of exercise; it has been shown to be an effective antidote to bouts of depression. A daily walk outside will help.
