Your energy boost for the winter

4 tips on how to recharge your batteries in winter

Some people love the cold, but most people just want to spend the whole day snuggling up in warm wool sweaters on cooler days and hoping for spring to arrive. Many people feel more demotivated, depressed, and lacking energy during the winter months. This winter, the coronavirus is also adding to the mix, forcing us to limit social contact and leave our homes less often. To help you bring more energy and motivation into the dark winter days, we have 5 helpful tips for you.

1. Get as much light and oxygen as possible

A lack of sunlight during the German winter is not uncommon. Light has a huge impact on our mood, and a lack of sunlight makes us feel exhausted and tired. Therefore, it's important to make the most of the few hours of sunshine we have during the winter. A walk during your lunch break or in the morning is enough to positively influence your day.

2. Yoga or simply exercise

Cold causes muscles to stiffen, and a short yoga session helps reduce tension, stimulate circulation, and warm you up from the inside out. The mara mea maternity leggings "feeling cosmic" are especially easy to do yoga in. They adapt to your body, and the soft organic cotton material will keep you and your bump warm at all times.

3. Mindfulness + Gratitude

Mindfulness helps you better cope with the depressed winter mood. You can either complain about the cold and dark days or use them to your advantage. This way, you can take more time for family evenings or for yourself, and spend the winter gratefully and mindfully.

4. Sleep

Deep and restful sleep is especially important in winter. Our bodies are weakened by the lack of vitamins and need time to rest and regenerate.

Last but not least - listen to your body, do something good for yourself and follow our Namasté November for daily inspiration around self-care, yoga, gratitude & more. All the best, your mara mea team
