Rachelle Strauss, 38, of Gloucester

Rachelle Strauss, 38, of Gloucestershire complained about the dreary English winters. She said that by 10 A.M., she felt that she wanted to do back to bad. She felt sleepy and exhausted as the dark days dragged on. However, when spring came around in March, she was back to her usual self, lively and full of energy. Then she discovered light therapy. It imitates light from the outdoors and can help create a good mood. Many people such as Strauss have found relief from sitting in front of a bright light box
But light therapy doesn’t work for everyone. So the solution may be live in a place that has lots of sunshine, or maybe to put a large poster of an idyllic Caribbean beach on the wall of your home.
