Seasonal Depression

Easter egg hunts aren’t only for kids. Adults love them!

Sometimes people can be more depressed or happier depending on the season. I’ve seen this in a few of my clients’ readings and have some experience with this myself in the past. Some are happier in the Fall or Christmas time and others are happier during summer.

What I’ve seen in future predictions is an overall mood change in those with seasonal related depression. The reading will show trends of being really unhappy, withdrawn, or sick for that season they dislike and bounce back during seasons they liked.

There can be multiple reasons why, they don’t like snow, they don’t like the cold, someone they knew passed during Christmas, the list can go on. However what they may be stuck with is an overall sense or belief that they don’t like Winter, Summer, Spring or Fall.

One way I’ve seen to combat this is to visualize and even celebrate aspects of the seasons you know you do like. For me that may be art, an adult Easter egg hunt, food, nature, games or changing my mindset. Here are some ideas:

  • View nature during this time. Find beautiful pictures online. During the Fall there is gorgeous colors, hot drinks, soft sweaters, Han solo boots, and much more. Spring has beautiful flowers, Easter egg hunts, trees grow back their foliage, St. Patrick’s day. Summer has beach and pool parties, BBQ, and vacations. Winter has house parties, Christmas, vacation time, hot beverages and fresh snow for the northern states.
  • Change a picture in your house, or something to celebrate and prepare for the new season every season. Put down the Christmas tree and think of Easter eggs, clovers and fresh flower fields. Think and visualize what is great about the new season. Feel good about it.
  • Paint, draw or look at pictures of your favorite things having to do with the new season.
  • Address your mental and physical health issues if they exist. There are allergy meds, and grief counseling available that are effective.
