28 分钟Hello, welcome to or welcome back to Trying Not To Care.
If you're listening in real time, this episode's coming out a couple days before Thanksgiving,
and I feel like after Thanksgiving, that's when everyone goes into winter mode.
I'm already there.
If you listen to this podcast, if you follow me on social media,
you already know that I am deep into romanticizing the holidays and romanticizing winter,
even though technically winter isn't until the end of December,
which I don't understand, but it is about to be winter, and for a lot of us,
That can be quite terrifying,
especially if you struggle with seasonal depression or you struggle with your mental health in general.
The days getting shorter and darker and colder can just be very difficult.
So today I want to give you some ideas on how you can romanticize your winter.
I think a lot of us try really hard to just survive the winter.
And I want to help you not only get through the winter,
but look forward to it and embrace it and truly love your life.
So here are a few ways that you can romanticize the winter.
Let's get into it.
Up until a couple years ago, I would absolutely dread the time change.
It would make me so unbelievably anxious and sad knowing that it was going to get dark at like 4.30,
5 p.m.
