As winter settles in and the days grow shorter, many of us feel a subtle shift — a heaviness, a dip in motivation, or a quiet fog that’s hard to name. In this episode of Sipping on Wellness, Kerry unpacks the science behind Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) and the emotional weight of shorter days, weaving together biology, lived experience, and faith-filled hope. Through personal reflections, practical winter wellness tools, and the gentle reminder that Christ is our Light in every season, this episode offers warmth, understanding, and actionable support. Learn how light, routines, nutrition, and God’s steady presence can help you move through winter with resilience and peace.
