Podcasts about winter blues

Why does winter affect our mood—and why are teens especially vulnerable? Amy talks with Dr. Greg Hammer, author of the book A MINDFUL TEEN, about the science behind the winter blues, teen mental health, and how simple mindfulness practices can help families feel better. Dr. Hammer explains how reduced sunlight, disrupted sleep, less physical activity, and holiday stress all contribute to seasonal mood changes—and why teens, who are already sleep-deprived and under pressure, can struggle even more during the winter months. The conversation explores the difference between everyday winter blues and Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), and when parents should consider professional support. Amy and Dr. Hammer also discuss the definition of "mindfulness" and the GAIN method—Dr. Hammer's practical, accessible framework built around Gratitude, Acceptance, Intention, and Non-Judgment. Dr. Hammer shares how mindfulness can be practiced in as little as three minutes a day, why self-judgment fuels stress and burnout, and how parents can model emotional regulation without lecturing their teens.

The end of the year brings more than holiday obligations for healthcare practice owners—it often brings exhaustion that ripples through your entire practice. When you're running on empty, your team feels it, and suddenly everyone's pretending their way through December while practice culture slowly fractures.  In this episode, Tracy reflects on meaningful wins from 2025—including CME accreditation, partnerships with medical associations, and the Joy of Medicine Retreat—while addressing the reality of seasonal stress in healthcare practices. She shares the story of Dr. Cheri's OBGYN practice, where one honest team huddle revealed that everyone was drowning separately, each convinced they were the only one struggling.  Tracy explores why most January goals fail by mid-February and what actually works instead: smaller, repeatable systems that fit into how you already operate. She introduces the Energy Audit Workbook for tracking what depletes versus restores you, and discusses why rest is foundation, not reward.  Looking ahead to 2026, Tracy shares two opportunities to build sustainable practice growth: the Community Open House on January 13th and the Future Proofing Healthcare Leadership Roundtable on January 27th.  Read the full show notes, memorable quotes, and key takeaways.

Plus, Shawna and LaLa sit down with 18-year-old country music artist Reese Goode, who is still in high school, to talk about her rising music career, balancing school and songwriting, and what's next for this young artist to watch.

Träge Winterabende auf der Couch? Kein Grund für ein schlechtes Gewissen! Das sagt zumindest eine Winterforscherin. Autorin Andrea Seeger nimmt sich deren Tipps zu Herzen.

"The greatest weapon against stress is our ability to choose one thought over another."― William James Check Out These Highlights:   During today's episode, my guest and I will explore why darker days affect mood, how we can take accountability for healing, and how true healing begins when we take ownership of our energy and intentionally create joy from within. We will examine how micro-moments of gratitude boost energy and reduce rumination during the winter months. She will also share the stress-to-steadiness toolkit, using brief phrases before tough moments (morning rush, work stress, bedtime) to lower anxiety and boost resilience. About Johanna Laurent:  Johanna is the founder of Positive Phrases—a movement born out of her deep belief in the power of words to heal, uplift, and transform lives. Raised in Brooklyn, Johanna learned early on the strength of resilience, the importance of gratitude, and the beauty of sharing positivity with others. That desire to pay life's goodness forward led her to launch Positive Phrases, which continues to grow every day—one empowering message at a time.

Winter Blues or Brain Overload?If you have been feeling heavier, foggier, or slower this winter, you are not broken. Your brain is overloaded.Many people mistake this for depression, but often it is a miswired nervous system struggling to regulate in the dark, cold season.Less sunlight lowers dopamine and serotonin. More isolation weakens emotional rhythm. More screen time overstimulates your reward pathways.Your motivation dips and your mood flattens because your system is strained, not because you are failing.In this episode, I show you how winter hijacks your brain and what you can do to reset it with light, movement, structure, and slow dopamine connection. A Brain Map shows exactly which pattern your brain is stuck in so you know what to correct, and you can learn more at drtrishleigh.com. You do not have to push through winter in survival mode. You can regulate your system and feel better again.Send us a textSupport the showHi. I am Dr. Trish Leigh, a Cognitive Neuroscientist, and Sex Addiction Recovery Coach.

As the days grow shorter and the Montana winters settle in here in Bozeman, many of us feel that familiar drag—low energy, persistent sadness, cravings for comfort foods, or just a sense that motivation has packed up and left for sunnier skies. If this sounds like you, you're not alone: it's Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), a real form of depression that hits reliably with the changing seasons.   In this enlightening episode of Forging Forward, host Adam Thorne and co-host Andy Kemp—two experienced therapists based right here in Bozeman—dive deep into SAD. They break down what it really is (beyond just the "winter blues"), explore common symptoms like oversleeping, social withdrawal, irritability, and carb cravings, and share evidence-based strategies to fight back. From the power of light therapy and circadian rhythm hacks to cognitive behavioral techniques, lifestyle tweaks, and when medication or professional support might make a difference, Adam and Andy offer practical, hopeful insights drawn from their years helping clients thrive through Montana's long winters.   Whether you're noticing these patterns in yourself or someone you care about, this conversation will empower you with tools to reclaim your energy and mood—no matter how gray the sky gets. Tune in and start forging forward toward brighter days!   About the Hosts:   Adam Thorne Psychology Today Profile: https://www.psychologytoday.com/profile/1441965   Andy Kemp Psychology Today Profile: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists/andrew-andy-kemp-bozeman-mt/879276   If you're struggling with seasonal changes or any mental health concerns, reach out to Adam or Andy for personalized support.

Der Dezember drückt – nicht nur aufs Thermometer, sondern auch auf die Stimmung in der Logistik. Dunkle Tage, nasses Wetter und Peak-Season-Druck treffen auf Forecast-Scharfschaltung und ein Kostenbewusstsein wie selten zuvor. In dieser Folge sprechen wir darüber, wie sich Black Week & Co. verändert haben – und warum viele Lieferketten trotzdem ins Stolpern geraten. Gleichzeitig geht es um den persönlichen Jahresendspurt, Termin-Ballungen, sinnvolle Grenzen und den Kampf gegen digitale Ablenkungen. Und natürlich darum, was Logistiker aus dieser Phase für 2026 mitnehmen können. -> Winterblues & Workload: Wie kurze Tage und Peak Season den Alltag vieler Logistiker prägen -> Black Week & Singles Day: Warum die “Glättung” von Peaks hilft – und warum manche Brands trotzdem scheitern -> Kapazitäten, Kosten, Risiken: Was sich im Transport seit der Ukraine-Krise verändert hat ->Customer Experience vs. operative Realität: Lieferzeiten, Erwartungsmanagement und Forecast-Fehler -> Dezember als Dauerstress: Weihnachtsfeiern, private Termine, Reisen – und das Gefühl, nur noch „durchzukommen“ -> Fokus zurückholen: Social-Media-Limits, Push-Einstellungen, Meeting-Qualität & persönliches Zeitmanagement -> Warum viele Dinge auf „nächstes Jahr“ verschoben werden – und weshalb das völlig okay ist Wenn dir diese Folge einen ehrlichen Einblick in den Dezember-Alltag der Logistik gegeben hat, freuen wir uns, wenn du sie mit Kolleginnen und Kollegen teilst. Hinterlass uns gern eine Bewertung auf Spotify oder Apple Podcasts – das hilft uns enorm weiter. Und wenn du Themenwünsche für 2026 hast, schick sie uns einfach – wir greifen sie in den nächsten Schnick-&-Schnack-Runden auf.

Wenn der Himmel grau ist, die Sonne kaum zu sehen und der Körper einfach nicht in die Gänge kommt, merken viele: Jetzt ist die Zeit, in der der Winter nicht nur draußen kalt ist, sondern auch drinnen an der Stimmung kratzt. Dieses müde Gefühl, die schlechte Stimmung und die fehlende Energie - all das gehört zum Winterblues. In dieser Folge meines Podcasts DA GEHT NOCH WAS sprechen wir darüber, wie sehr Licht unser Wohlbefinden beeinflusst. Denn die wenigen Sonnenstunden im Winter bringen unseren Biorhythmus aus dem Takt: Serotonin sinkt, Melatonin steigt und plötzlich fühlt sich alles ein bisschen schwerer an. Die Folge: wir fühlen uns schlapp, müde, schlecht gelaunt und ohne Energie. Was hilft uns raus aus diesem Tief Bewegung, frische Luft, soziale Kontakte, Wärme und auch Tageslichtlampen sind ein Weg. Außerdem spielt auch unsere Ernährung eine Rolle als Stimmungsbooster: Wie stärken Vitamin D, B Vitamine, Magnesium und Tryptophan unser emotionales Gleichgewicht? Warum hilft ein Haferbrei mit Banane und Nüssen an grauen Tagen? Und was macht Zitrusfrüchte, grünes Gemüse oder grünen Tee zu kleinen Winterhelden? Und dann geht es natürlich auch um Zucker, denn viele spüren gerade in dieser Jahreszeit, wie sehr er die Stimmung beeinflusst. Warum sorgt Industriezucker erst für einen kurzen Kick und danach für ein Tief? Wie hängen Zucker, Entzündungen, Hormone und Heißhunger zusammen? Und warum wird ein zuckerarmer Alltag für viele zum Gamechanger? Eure Anastasia

Wir nehmen euch mit durch den Winterblues der Offseason: Vitzi ist endlich zurück am Mikro – genesen, aber mit jeder Menge Frust im Gepäck.

Shorter days, less sunlight, gray skies, and changes in routine can mess with your mood and energy. In the Pacific Northwest, Sara calls it the Big Dark for a reason. In this episode, she breaks down why the winter blues happen, why they hit harder when you are alcohol free, and the practical strategies that help you stay grounded instead of slipping backward. Sara shares the story of her first winter living in a camper trailer on the land while building her house. The lack of natural light, heavy rain, and isolation hit stronger than expected, and it became the first time she truly understood how intense the winter blues can feel, even deep into sobriety. She now approaches every winter with intention and has built a winter-specific sober toolkit to stay emotionally steady. Through personal experience and research, this episode teaches you how to recognize winter blues, how to distinguish them from seasonal affective disorder, and how to protect your alcohol free identity during the months when cravings or old coping mechanisms may begin whispering again. You will leave with five winter-proof strategies that help you stay energized, connected, and proud of your choices, even when the season feels heavy. What You Will Learn 1. Why the Winter Blues Happen How reduced sunlight lowers serotonin. How longer darkness disrupts circadian rhythm, leading to fatigue, fog, and increased melatonin. Why people in northern latitudes are more susceptible. How environmental factors like rain, darkness, and isolation intensify the emotional dip. 2. How Winter Impacts Your Alcohol Free Journey Lower mood plus lower energy can increase cravings and relapse risk. Lack of motivation can sabotage routines that usually protect your sobriety. Social withdrawal and loneliness can make old patterns feel nostalgic or tempting. Winter can become a unique season in your recovery, requiring specialized tools and preparation. 3. How to Know Whether It Is the Winter Blues or Seasonal Affective Disorder Winter blues tend to be mild and temporary. SAD is more persistent, more intense, and repeats each winter. Sara stresses the importance of not minimizing clinical depression and reaching out for professional support when needed. 4. Five Strategies to Protect Your Sobriety This Winter Light exposure and environment Use a light therapy lamp. Increase brightness in your indoor spaces or embrace warm lighting if it brings comfort. Explore vitamin D supplementation. Get your face outside for whatever sunlight exists that day. Routine and structure Keep consistent wake times. Resist the urge to retreat into isolation. Anchor habits that reinforce your non-drinker identity. Maintain community engagement even when motivation dips. Movement, connection, and purpose Move daily even when it is dark or rainy. Bundle up, put on the rain gear, and get outside. Plan intentional social touchpoints. Reaffirm your personal why and your identity as a non-drinker. Ask for support when things feel off Speak up early. Share your experience with a partner or community. Build a winter strategy before you are struggling. Seek professional care if symptoms feel intense or prolonged. Mindset reframing See winter as a season of reinvention rather than defeat. Lean into coziness, warmth, and slow living. Remember that you no longer use alcohol to numb through winter. Identify at least one win each day that happens because you did not drink. Key Takeaway The winter blues are real, and they are rooted in biology and environment. But with preparation and intentional practice, you can navigate this season with confidence instead of slipping into old patterns. Winter can become a powerful part of your alcohol free story, a season of inner strengthening, and a time to build the resilient version of yourself who will step boldly into spring.

In this episode of The Pediatric Pharmacist Review, we explore the phenomenon of seasonal affective disorder (SAD) and its relevance to children, adolescents, and families. Our guest, Tim Horton, is a seasoned psychiatric nurse‑practitioner (APRN, CNP) and founder of PeopleFirst Clinic in Woodbury, Minnesota, where he specializes in holistic, medication‑management and therapy‑integrated care for youth and adults. With his unique background in pediatric mental health, patient‑centered approaches, and collaborative provider work, Tim brings deep insight into how biological and environmental factors converge in seasonal depression—and what practical actions caregivers and clinicians can take to mitigate its impact. Key Discussion Points: Biological & Environmental Contributors: We unpack how changes in daylight exposure, circadian rhythm shifts, neurotransmitter variations (serotonin, melatonin), and geographic/seasonal factors contribute to SAD in children and teens. Lifestyle & Environmental Interventions: Tim and I discuss actionable strategies such as structured light‑exposure (dawn simulators, 10,000 lux boxes), daily outdoor activity, consistent sleep schedules, and nutritional supports (timing of meals, nutrient‑dense foods, healthy fats) to reduce symptom severity. Treatment Options & Efficacy: We review standard of care for SAD—starting with behavioral and lifestyle measures, then progressing to light therapy and pharmacologic treatment (SSRIs, SNRIs, augmentation) when needed, including considerations unique to pediatric populations. Vitamin D and Seasonal Depression: We examine the evidence linking vitamin D deficiency with increased SAD risk, discuss screening thresholds in younger patients, supplementation strategies, and how this fits into a broader preventive mindset. Preventive Measures Ahead of Winter: Tim outlines a pre‑winter readiness plan—adjusting indoor lighting, optimizing outdoor daylight exposure, establishing routine exercise, reinforcing healthy diet patterns, and monitoring early warning signs for a proactive response. Misconceptions and Under‑Recognition: We address common myths—such as SAD only occurring in extreme northern latitudes, or that “it's just the blues” and will self‑resolve—highlighting how under‑recognition in pediatric settings can delay helpful intervention.

Welcome to this deep sleep hypnosis session, created to support you through Seasonal Affective Disorder and the autumn and winter blues. Tonight is about settling your mind, easing the weight of the season, and helping your body drift into deep, restorative sleep. All you need to do is relax, listen, and allow yourself to rest.Hypnotherapy is an incredible tool that enables us to speak to the subconscious part of the mind – the part that is in control of our emotions and habits, therefore enabling a much higher success rate than just desperately relying on willpower in the everyday conscious part of our brains.Please like and share my recordings - and of course, subscribe to my channel, as I'll be putting out more Hypnosis & Meditation videos as often as I can :).About Me: I'm a Clinical Hypnotherapist and Coach based in Seville in Spain but I see clients online from all around the world, specialising in Alcohol Moderation and Abstinence.Please feel free to contact me for any enquiries via Instagram www.instagram.com/steveroetherapy.#hypnotherapy #forsleep #sleephypnosis #MaleVoiceHypnosis #deepsleep #sleepmeditationMusic – A Gentle Reminder - Hannah Lindgren c/o Epidemic Sound⚠DISCLAIMER⚠ All media content created by Steve Roe Therapy is intended for education and entertainment purposes only.

In this episode, we dive deep into the often overlooked intersections between hormonal health and mood. We'll explore how the hormonal roller-coaster of perimenopause can trigger depression; how an underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism) can silently undermine your mental health, cognition and memory; and how winter's shorter days and low light can amplify the risk of seasonal affective disorder (SAD) — especially when thyroid issues are in the mix.You'll learn:Why women in their 40s-50s may face a 40 % higher risk of depression during perimenopause — and how those symptoms may overlap with thyroid dysfunction. How hypothyroidism mimics and worsens depression, anxiety, brain-fog and fatigue — and why it often goes undiagnosed. The link between thyroid-autoimmune inflammation, structural brain changes and cognitive/mood symptoms in Hashimoto's and hypothyroidism. Practical strategies to navigate these overlapping conditions: combining thyroid screening, lifestyle tweaks (sleep, nutrition, light exposure), therapy/CBT, and when medical hormone-or thyroid-treatment becomes essential.How to spot when “just feeling off” is more than stress: the red flags that signal mood symptoms need a hormonal check.Whether you're entering perimenopause, suspect a thyroid condition or are managing seasonal mood dips — this episode will help you connect the dots and equip you with evidence-based tools to reclaim your mood and hormonal balance.
