A few low-effort ways I've made autumn evenings less gloomy
The evenings are drawing in here and I always feel it by mid-September. A few things that have genuinely helped me over the years:
Swap the ceiling light for a couple of warm lamps after dark. Get outside for at least fifteen minutes before noon, even if it's grey. Have one small thing to look forward to midweek, a film, a call, a new recipe. And keep a blanket on the couch so 'cosy' feels like a choice rather than giving up.
