Now that the holidays are over it's so easy to fall into a winter slump. I know when January rolls around I am counting down the days until summer, which may not be the most productive or healthy thing to do. I put together a list of really easy ways to stay busy and to take care of your self this winter to avoid seasonal depression or to just avoid feeling really blah. Before you know it spring will be on it's way! Or at least we can hope right?
