What if your experience of winter isn’t fixed? This piece explores how “seasonal depression” might just be an old story and how peace, calm, and even joy are always available, no matter the season.

For some people, winter is their favorite season. They love that it gets dark earlier and that it’s cold. They feel cozy and peaceful. They love sweater and soup season. Maybe they even love the snow. 

For others, it feels dark and heavy. The shorter days seem to bring more tiredness, restlessness, or sadness.

Some call it the winter blues. Some identify with seasonal affective disorder.
