How to Get Rid of the Grey Sky Blahs
It may officially be spring, but there are still grey skies and rain clouds on the horizon. While everyone recognizes that less light during the winter can fuel depression, its easy to forget that everyday can use a Happiness Boost. Here are some tips for putting the spring back in your step.

Keep track of your life. Its easy to focus on the bad, so keeping a journal of your ups and downs will help you remember the goods times also.

Take a moment of peace in the morning. Everyday is filled with busy rushing from place to place. Pause for 20 minutes in the morning to read poetry, meditate and focus on breathing.

Eat a tuna fish sandwich. Research by the National Institutes of Health shows that regularly eating foods high in omega-3 fatty acids relieves depression. Two servings a week should help keep those levels up.

Challenge yourself. If you’re down because you feel stuck in a rut, shake up your routine -- drive a different route to work... learn a new language... start an exercise program.

Recognize anger. Researchers at The Ohio State University discovered that both holding your anger in and blowing up lead to elevated levels of LDL (“bad”) cholesterol. Take steps to express your anger calmly. If you’re upset, count to 10 or 100, until you can talk without exploding.
