The days are slowly getting longer, and we’re already looking forward to the first signs of spring – but winter still has us in its grip. Cold temperatures, grey clouds, and little sunlight can take a toll on our mood. But it doesn’t have to be that way! With a few simple tips and the support of highly precise plant-based active ingredients, you can turn this transitional period into your very own Good Mood Era.
#1 Get some fresh air
A walk outside brings colour to your cheeks, as it supplies your skin with oxygen and boosts circulation. Spending time in the fresh air not only gets your blood flowing but also helps you absorb as much light as possible. Sunlight promotes the production of vitamin D3, which has a positive impact on both body and mind. By the way, even on a cloudy, grey day, natural daylight is still three to four times stronger than indoor lighting.
To further support your body with vitamin D3, we recommend BEYOND omega. It contains fat-soluble vitamin D3 from algae extract, which plays a key role in countless bodily functions and ensures a year-round supply of the sunshine vitamin.
#2 Find relaxation and balance
In addition to movement, relaxation is also key to feeling balanced during the winter months. This is where RINGANAisi comes in: its natural plant-based ingredients promote deep relaxation and support restful sleep. This way, you can face winter stress with ease and wake up full of energy each morning.
#3 Add some colour to your life
The sky is grey, the bare tree branches sway in the cold wind, and fog obscures your view. Your wardrobe has adapted to nature’s dullness, blending in with the surroundings. But that doesn’t have to be the case! We say, enough of that! A bright scarf, a colourful hat, or patterned gloves will instantly lift your mood – and the compliments you receive will make you shine even more.
#4 Cuddle your way to happiness
Cuddling is an instant mood booster. Why? Physical touch releases happiness hormones, which positively affect both your physical state and your mood. If a hug lasts longer than 20 seconds, it triggers the release of oxytocin and lots of endorphins. So, enjoy being close to your loved ones – it works wonders, especially on dark and chilly days.
#5 Promote inner calm
If the dark days are affecting your mood, CAPS moodoo is your perfect companion. Its natural ingredients strengthen emotional resilience and help you regain inner balance – ideal for winter blues, PMS, or whenever you need a little extra calm.
#6 Exercise for fitness and happiness
Not a fan of exercise? This might change your mind! Physical activity boosts both mental and physical well-being. In winter, staying active is particularly important to feel good and beat the winter blues. The key to enjoying exercise is finding a sport you love. Try different activities and create a plan – the more variety, the better! Mixing things up will keep you motivated.
#7 Treat yourself to quality time
Make a conscious effort to take time for yourself every day. Read a good book, cook something delicious, or simply relax – these little moments make all the difference. For an extra dose of calm, incorporate CAPS moodoo into your routine. They’ll help you stay centred, even in stressful times.
#8 Laugh as much as possible
Laughter releases endorphins, reduces stress, and strengthens your immune system. So, grab a joke book, watch the funniest cat videos on YouTube, and get ready for a tickle attack!
