But really, who has the time. (Discipline, whatever. ) I believe the answer lies in treadmill desks!

I have friends stationed in Alaska (Go Army) and a blue light is a household item! I do hope the blue light didn’t melt the moose tracks though 😉

Actually, try exposing as much skin as you dare (without getting arrested, that is) to the sun. Especially in winter. Vitamin D deficiency (aka the sunshine vitamin) happens quite often in winter and is linked to health issues such as fatigue, depression, cancer, bone health, cardiovascular diseases, MS etc.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitamin_D
http://www.livestrong.com/article/22440-mental-health-benefits-vitamin-d/

The easiest way of helping your body to produce vitamin D is by direct exposure of your skin to the sun. 10 – 15 minutes every day are enough though. As my GP pointed out, there’s really no need to risk skin cancer for the sake of vitamin D.

In any case, trust your instinct. Your body is telling you it needs the sun to produce vitamin D. If your vitamin D level is very low (your doc can have your blood checked for it) there are a number of dietary supplements you can take. Cod liver oil for instance. Yuk.

Anywho, I’ve babbled enough.
Nice to know I’m not the only weirdo who squints at the sun with a goofy grin on my face (though the goofy grin might be just me).

You need to have someone take a pic of you with the dog on your back, staring into the sun with your eyes closed, on the subway. It would totally benefit your readers.
Man, I don’t know what to make of all this depression talk. Perhaps I’m not used to people being this honest. I wish I could help you. But I guess that’s what the blue light is for.

Riding your bike to work IS exercise, that happens to be outside in the sun. What could be better than that? Maybe your sadness comes from trying to measure up to the ideal of others instead of being true to your personal happiness.

As for the creep factor, take up the saxophone and then the blue light makes sense. AND even if the light doesn’t work you can play the blues and people won’t think you are depressed, just artsy. Win-win.

I live in Portland, yes THAT Portland where its grey all winter and it gets hard to take after a while. Would love to hear more about if you felt a difference or not. But agree with the person above, add an affiliate link! Let us try one! 🙂

I really think she suffers from S.A.D….. seriously… let me know if this works.
