天气越来越，白天变短，黑夜很长，温度寒冷彻骨。这时候，许多人都很容易感到忧郁、沮丧、孤立与乏味。 下面这些日常小习惯，才是驱逐以上悲观情绪的更佳选择：
每天都出门
在整个冬季保持身体活跃是很重要的。比如骑单车去上班、走路送孩子去上学、出门铲雪、周末与家人或朋友一起远足、计划冬季露营之旅、或是参与当地的节日活动。别缩在家里冬眠！
It's important to stay active throughout the winter months. Cycle to work. Walk your kids to school. Shovel snow. Go on weekend hikes with family or friends. Plan a winter camping trip. Visit local festivals. Just don't hibernate!
室内种花
可以在室内种植蔬菜，或者种一圈室内植物环绕自己，为房间增添几分愉快且宁静的氛围。
You can grow vegetables indoors or simply surround yourself with houseplants that add a cheery, peaceful vibe to a room.
烹制怡人且驱寒的食物
季节改变了，饮食习惯自然也要随之改变。烹制一些炖菜、辣咖喱、热汤、或是新鲜的自制面包。冬天可是烘烤的最佳时节。烤箱不仅可以温暖你的房子，也会使厨房成为家人团聚的地方。
Embrace how the change in seasons affects your diet. Make slow simmering stews and braises, spicy curries, heaps of soups, and fresh homemade breads. Winter is the best time to bake. Turning on the oven can warm your house and make the kitchen a gathering point for the family.
邀请朋友聚会
在周末晚上举办非正式聚会。大家蜷缩在客厅的沙发上玩上几个小时的棋盘游戏，或是一起看电影，没有人会抱怨的。此外，与朋友一起共度温泉之夜也是个不错的选择。
Host informal gatherings on weekend evenings. No one will complain about curling up on a living room sofa to play board games for hours or to watch a movie together. Host a spa night with friends.
创造你喜欢的仪式
我喜欢在冬天的晚上洗热水泡泡浴，下午喝自制的抹茶拿铁或印度奶茶。孩子们上床睡觉后，我丈夫会和我一起观看最喜欢的节目并在壁炉前吃爆米花。
I love taking hot bubble baths on winter evenings and drinking homemade matcha lattes or chai tea in the afternoons. My husband and I watch a favorite show and eat popcorn in front of the fireplace after kids have gone to bed.
制作书单
如果你晚上出门的时间较少，那么你应该有更多的时间去消灭自己想看的书。让冬季成为你的阅读季吧，在沉默中度过专属的时光，在舒适的沙发上环游世界。别忘了设定一个目标，比如，每周看一本书。
If you're going out less in the evenings, then you should have more time to tackle all those books you wish you could read. Make winter your reading season, with dedicated hours spent in silence, traveling the world from the comfort of your couch. Set a goal, i.e. one book per week.
别让窗户被遮挡
打开窗帘或使用薄薄的透明窗帘，让阳光照进家中。这会照亮室内空间，改善你的情绪，让短暂的白天感觉更长一点。
Keeping curtains open or using gauzy transparent ones to allow sunlight to enter the home. This will brighten the space, boost your mood, and make the short days feel just a wee bit longer.
