Today is ‘Blue Monday’, a day, we’re ‘told’ is the most depressing day of the year. Caught between the excitement and sparkly lights of Christmas and the longer days of spring. Days are still short and the evenings cold and dark. Probaly made worse this year as we’re in Lockdown with nowhere to go – no dancing parties to keep us connected, no restaurants or pubs to enjoy that cosy, collective companionship.
I’ve certainly been feeling more like staying in – hot bath as the daylight fades and straight into pyjamas. Does that sound bad?
It struck me this morning, though, that I need to move more – make more of a point of getting out when the sun is shining and get some daylight. And so this afternoon I popped down to the beach.
Blue sky, calm blue sea. Fresh air and all of those negative ions to boost my immunity. Guaranteed to blow the cobwebs away. What’s your go-to pick-me-up?
