Sunday, November 8: The Winter Blues Workshop
A week after we turn our clocks back, join us for a cozy afternoon of learning and preparing for a better mood in the seasons ahead.
The Winter Blues Workshop is a space to learn and practice evidence-informed strategies to navigate the darkest season, together. Because as the days get shorter, you may have noticed that…
- your mood feels consistently low.
- you don’t feel like doing the things you usually enjoy.
- your appetite changes, possibly eating more and craving sweets.
- your sleep changes… sleeping more than usual.
- you feel tired, like really really tired even though you’re sleeping
- you feel (extra) bad about yourself.
So…what’s the winter blues workshop all about?
This 2.5-hour workshop all about laying the foundations for a better mood this winter. It’s designed to be educational, hands-on and even a little fun. You’ll have a chance to learn about the science of Seasonal Affective Disorder (S.A.D.), as well as practical, evidence-informed strategies that fit into your life.
What we’ll cover:
- What makes us so S.A.D. in the winter?
- A light therapy deep-dive
- Feeding your brain for mental health
- How to keep moving your bod when you’re tired and cold
- Putting a plan together, together
- Participating in this workshop makes you eligible to join the Winter Blues Crew and continue connecting all the way through to Daylight Savings in the spring.
Can’t make it in person? No problem. We have a livestream option available for anyone who isn’t able to make it down to Center City, Philadelphia. You will be able to engage with the material and ask questions live. Register for the livestream ticket and you’ll be sent a link before the day of the workshop.

What Can the Vietnam War Teach Us?
In her 1968 essay, “Trip to Hanoi,’ Susan Sontag wrote that being in Hanoi was for her “very least a duty.” She continued: “What I’m not yet reconciled to is that it’s also a piece of political theatre. They [the North Vietnamese] are playing their roles, we (I) must play ours (mine). The heaviness of it all comes from the fact that the script is written entirely by them; and they’re directing the play, too. Though this is how it has to be — it’s their country, their life-and-death struggle, while we are volunteers, extras, figurants who retain the option of getting off the stage and sitting safely in the audience.” [FULL REVIEW]
