Mental Wellness for the Winter

We take our cars to the mechanic for winter preparation to ensure
it survives until spring. With the time change, it is suggested
that we check and change the batteries in our smoke detectors. In
the same order of safety and wellness, it is the perfect time to do
a wellness check for our minds, as the winter season approaches.
Licensed Professional Counselor Scotty Gilmore, a favorite guest,
sits in to discuss the natural downturn of the body as it aligns
with the change of season, and share information about Seasonal
Affective Disorder, which affects many in the Northern Hemisphere.
We also discuss in-depth, the process of grief, related to
expectations and loss during the cold and holiday season. As
always, I warm us up with music for the soul. Share with those you
love, who may struggle during the winter and holiday season, and
most importantly, do not hesitate to reach out to a trusted friend
or professional for help if you cannot cope on your own. Music: Let
