The Internet is an amazing place. With a flash of lightening, the landscape is transformed.
The Winter Blues Coach is now contributing to The Daily Brainstorm: A Blogazine to Rock Your Mind, launching July 12 on an Internet connection near you.
A blogazine is netspeak for an aggregate blog that pulls in posts from a variety of blogs and displays them together under topic categories. You’ll find posts on Self Development, Health, Food, Spirituality, Humor, Money, News & Views, Lifestyle, Blogosphere and Writing.
You can find the Winter Blues Coach under “Alternative Medicine” in “Health.”

Zen Habits was just named as one of the 25 best blogs of 2010, and all of these blogs radiate star power that regularly draw thousands of readers and fans.

A mission big and bold
The mission behind The Daily Brainstorm is bold: To provide place where compelling ideas mingle, where the best and the brightest gather, and where readers are inspired in a multitude of ways to live bigger, bolder and happier lives.
That’s what I love about the Internet – it makes bigger and bolder easy. I’m honored to be a contributor with the Winter Blues Coach and hope The Daily Brainstorm will help more people who suffer from seasonal depression discover that winter doesn’t have to hurt.
Be my guest and check it out.

Hi Marsha,
Great article! Thank you!
You know I actually hate winters I truly believe I experience a touch of SAD during those dark cold days. Perhaps my low vitamin D level is a contributor?
Angela,
Thank you!
I read mixed reports on the helpfulness of Vit. D. The medical experts say it has no significant effect on treating SAD and depression, but people I know who take it swear it helps them.
My thinking is that if you’re sunlight-deprived, you could be low in Vit. D as well. Supplementing can be helpful, but it’s no replacement for the real deal — enough light. Keep me posted on how Vit. D works for you, if you don’t mind.
