Two in five Americans say their mood worsens in winter. Sweetser’s Medical Director Dr. Marc Kaplan appeared on WMTW’s Mental Health Moment segment to discuss ways to combat isolation during the winter months suggesting things like:
- Start a new hobby or project to work on
- Seek natural light like a short walk outdoors
- Maintain a regular sleep schedule
- Engage in physical activity
- Practice meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises
