Though the darkest days are months away, starting to use a light box now in the fall months for about 30 minutes each morning can help boost mood.
Dr. Dorothy Sitt, a psychiatrist at Northwestern University, points to research showing bright light therapy is on par with standard antidepressant medications in relieving symptoms of seasonal affective disorder.
