I Defeated Seasonal Depression

For a long time, I thought winter was just something I had to survive.

But over the last few years, I started figuring out what actually helps me get through it—and even feel like myself again.

I wouldn’t say winter is my favourite now…
but I will say this is the closest I’ve come to defeating seasonal depression.

Watch here:

In this video, you’ll find:

  • The first thing I changed that helped stabilize my mood in winter
  • How I broke the cycle of staying in bed and feeling worse
  • Why doing things I didn’t want to do actually helped my mental health
  • The mindset shift that made consistency easier
  • How I accidentally built connection into the hardest season
  • And the biggest lesson that made winter feel less like something to “survive”

Until next time. I’m Jeff, and remember to take care of yourself, however that looks to you.
