Forget about the winter blues.
Boost your mood with a variety of winter activities.
The days are getting shorter, and the nights are growing longer – winter is here. Are the darker days getting you down? We’ve got just the remedy!
When daylight becomes scarce, the so-called “winter blues” can hit hard. Sunlight is essential for your well-being – when it decreases, melatonin levels remain high, serotonin levels drop, and so does your mood. Luckily, there are some simple ways to lift your spirits during the darker months.
Certain foods, like bananas, nuts, and chocolate, can boost serotonin production. Getting outside, even on overcast days, makes a big difference, too. A walk in natural daylight provides more benefits than staying indoors, and any physical activity will elevate your mood. Treat yourself to wellness experiences like massages or aromatherapy to rejuvenate both body and mind. Essentially, anything that releases those feel-good hormones will help brighten your day – including taking time for yourself. Even planning a holiday and anticipating all the upcoming pleasures can be a mood booster.
And you can expect a whole host of wellness-boosting experiences in the snow-covered winter landscapes around the Hotel Post. Whether snowshoeing or winter hiking among the glowing mountain peaks, here you can enjoy the area’s peace and beauty to the fullest.
For a bit of excitement, try tobogganing in the Tyrolean Oberland! There are several thrilling runs to race down, day or night. A highlight of the region is Tyrol’s longest toboggan run, which starts at an elevation of 2,200 metres and stretches 8 kilometres down to the charming village of Nauders. Cross-country skiers are also in for a treat, with 150 kilometres of perfectly groomed trails to explore.
Why not book your holiday right now? Beat the winter blues – forget the November lull, the December gloom, or January’s grey skies – and make the most of the winter season! With delicious food and endless snowy adventures, you’ll find that winter can be a time to embrace rather than endure.
