I believe that when I'm in tune with my Creator, praying throughout the day, taking time to sit quietly to tune out the noise and tune in to God, that I feel better. The quiet, without the TV, Computer, IPad, Cell Phone or other distractions clears the mind, releases stress and creates in me a healthier outlook.
With daylight savings and the length of darkness in our days, the quiet reflection time is easier and even more important. Here is an article from Web MD that I think is helpful.
Winter Darkness, Season Depression

Be aware of your moods, and the moods of those around you and try to fight the winter blues. Depression can be a serious state of being and it is important to fight it; nip it in the bud; don't let it get the best of you! If you or someone you know is unhappy, depressed or "dark," can't seem to shake it, despite the helpful tips you find on Web MD and other sites, then get help from a professional.
You deserve to be happy, so spend time praying, reflecting, interacting with others and tune out the video games and chatter and get in tuned with yourself and your Creator. You'll be happier and healthier and live a more fulfilled life.
