After Christmas Letdown? by Susan Dunn, MA, certified Emotional Intelligence Coach

5.Jumpstart your thinking brain. Start a new course. If you’re an extravert, go to community ed classes. If you’re an introvert, enjoy yourself on the internet with distance learning courses and take teleclasses.

6.Start a new intellectual project at work (if possible) and/or at home.

7.Start anything new – new health club, new piano lessons, coaching, fencing lessons, new hairstyle.

8.If you live in an area where this is high allergy-time (such as Texas), pay adjust your diet, because it’s cumulative - pollen PLUS diet PLUS dust and mold inside your house. Clean our your air ducts.

9.Laugh. One simple exercise is to put a pencil in your teeth crosswise. This makes the muscles of your face into a smile, and this helps our bodies. It gives us the same great relief a good laugh does.

10.Don’t fight it. There is no need to appear “Miss Congenialty” when you aren’t feeling that way. It’s okay to be in a quiet place.

Also, because this is the peak of SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder), get more sunshine. Exercise outside. Take a Caribbean cruise. When the sun crosses the bed in the spare bedroom, go lie down and soak up the rays.

Change is the only thing that stays constant, so know that your mood will eventually find its place. If you are seriously depressed, check with the many mental health professionals available to help you.
