Tis the season for twinkling lights, cozy nights, and... feelings of overwhelming dreariness?  Yep, while the holidays seem magical for some, for others, shorter days and lack of sunshine can trigger a Grinch-like slump into what's called Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD).

Think of SAD as your mood's response to hibernation mode. Shorter days throw our internal clock out of whack, leaving us feeling like bears trapped in a cave full of fruitcake.

Bonus:  Feeling overwhelmed? Don't hesitate to seek professional help! A therapist can provide personalized guidance and support to navigate the winter months with a smile.

Let's chase away the shadows and embrace the light, both inside and out! This holiday season, let's shine brighter than ever!
