Mental health prep

Fellow Californian here! Perhaps you won't hit a depressive/anxiety ridden wall mid-winter, but I sure did my first couple winters in New York. In addition to leaning into hygge rituals (TEA! SOUPS! PILATES!) some supplements helped ease the darkness that descended upon me. I took St. John's Wort as an anti-depressant for years, but now I take Rhodiola Rosea every morning (mood and stress) and I'll take ashwaganda/l-theanine if the darkness is particularly thicc. And magnesium biglycinate at night for body relaxation. Oh and get a SAD light!

Not a doc, so do your own research of course, or don't listen to me at all! It's gonna be great! Good luck💖
