The winter months can affect us all. It?s cold, dark, and ? let?s be honest ? a little bit depressing, no matter how happy and cheery we normally are.
But the gloom of winter affects some more than others, with an estimated 20,000 people in the UK suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder, or SAD, a rather appropriate acronym.

However, there are ways you can perk up your mood and feel better about yourself. So don?t let the shorter days and darker nights get you down ? here are a few tried and tested, all-natural tips guaranteed to slay any impending depression and boost your spirits.
