Weather Change Tips: As the weather changes, it has a deep impact not only on our body but also on our mental health. With the beginning of October, mild cold starts knocking and this is the time when people need to be especially cautious. In the changing season, along with cold and viral infections, mental problems like mood swings, irritability and stress also become common.
But by adopting some easy and effective measures, we can maintain our mental health. Let us know some such suggestions.
1. Maintain a regular routine: Wake up on time in the morning and get enough sleep at night. Keep a fixed time for eating and sleeping. This maintains stability in the mind.
2. Get sunlight: Sit in the sun for some time in the morning. Vitamin D deficiency can also cause depression. Sunlight improves mood and gives energy.
3. Increase physical activities: Include light exercise, yoga or walking in your daily routine. Exercise increases endorphins (happy hormones), which are beneficial for mental health.
4. Stay hydrated and eat a balanced diet: Due to changing weather, there may be lack of water in the body, which increases fatigue and irritability. Include seasonal fruits and vegetables in your diet.
5. Limit screen time: Especially when the mood is being affected by changing weather, it is beneficial to stay away from too much social media or news. Instead of this, reading a book, listening to music or meditating is a better option.
6. Improve sleep quality: Stay away from mobile and laptop at night and sleep in a quiet environment. Lack of sleep is also a major cause of mood swings.
7. Communicate with yourself and get help if you need it: Don’t suppress your emotions. Talk to someone you trust. Don’t hesitate to seek professional help if needed.
