There can be a certain fondness for winter,  from knitwear to the cosy evenings by the fire. However, once the cold weather sets in and the days get shorter, it can be relatively difficult to stay happy and healthy. It is not unusual to find yourself with less energy and with a lower mood. Our bodies tend to be, during the winter, more eager to hibernate than to keep outdoors and active. Some individuals will even experience seasonal affective disorder, also known, appropriately, as SAD.

To keep motivated, and in good physical and mental health, we must work a little harder than during the summer period but, thankfully, finding our balance and well-being, isn’t impossible. To help, we’re sharing six of the best ways to maintain a positive mind and body through the winter months. 

Keeping Warm

Warmth is a simple aspect of the winter period and most of us will certainly work hard to ensure that our body temperature is kept in check. However, it is important to the extra mile, not only meeting our basic needs but also a certain degree of comfort too.

This can be found in front of the fireplace or with a hot water bottle, even with the occasional cup of hot chocolate. There’s also snugness found within extra blankets and a room full of candles too, both of which are key aspects of the nordic style, hygge.

Stay Active

Movement is imperative to happiness and those who exercise have been shown to experience a greater degree of happiness than others. Even during the cold and wet weather, there’s little reason why individuals cannot maintain a healthy regime, either by attending the gym or embracing body weight fitness at home.

Connect With Others

Socialising is important for our mental health, preventing a sense of isolation and depression. Making the extra effort to see and spend time with family and friends is, as such, a huge benefit to mental health during the winter, for both you and others.

Get Outdoors

During the winter, one does well to continue spending time outdoors and in nature. This can be difficult with the weather but there are ways to make the experience much more comfortable, with both clothing and equipment making it easy. Assets such as thermal wear, changing robes, and heat packs, as well as an insulating flask, can make all the difference.

Drink Water

The cold weather can lead people to drink less water than they need and dehydration during winter periods is possible. As such, even on colder days, individuals must ensure that they are drinking enough water to stay hydrated, even if they don’t always feel like they are thirsty.  Look out for subtle signs, such as dry mouth and headaches.

Eat Well

Vitamin intake from food and supplements is essential during winter. Our bodies typically draw a large part of their essential vitamin D from the sun, but this isn’t possible during the winter months. Instead, it is recommended that households begin to incorporate fish oils, oranges, and even liver into their diets.

Allahabad is the city that hosts the grandest and the largest Hindu pilgrimage festival that is ‘Kumbh Mela’ but honestly, this city is much more than that. Though currently known as Allahabad, this place was once named ‘Kaushambhi’.

Allahabad was once the capital of Kuru (ruler of Hastinapur) and so when one visits this city, one can see its rich history of it. This place holds edifices like Allahabad University, Allahabad Fort, Anand Bawan (ancestral home of the Nehru family), and more. Not only the Nehru family but this city is the home of 13 more Prime Ministers of India. If one is thinking of traveling here, then they can book rooms in hotels in Allahabad which are more or less at the centre of the city.

Places worth experiencing in the city

Along with his, this is the burial ground for Nesa Begum (sister of Khusro), Shah Begum (first wife of Jahangir), and Tomolin; whose origin is not known. Though Khusro Mirza was a Mughal Emperor, he never had an easy life. Khusro Bagh is a fascinating place to visit.

Triveni Sangam

Known as the most sacred spot in Allahabad, this is a point where the 3 most important rivers of India Ganga, Yamuna, and the Saraswati meet each other. This confluence is gorgeous and people can easily differentiate between the 3 rivers because the water of the 3 has different colors at this convergence point. It is considered to be an auspicious junction for the Hindus. It is believed that if one takes a dip here then it will help them to wash away their sins and can free them from their cycle of rebirth. During Kumbh Mela, this place is crowded with devotees.

Anand Bhawan

Allahabad has always been a center of politics since the independence struggle. This place is a beautiful 2-storeyed house which is preserved the way it was. It is the home of India’s first Prime Minister Shri Jawaharlal Nehru. This is also the house where leaders like Motilal Nehru, Indira Gandhi, and even Mahatma Gandhi stayed. The home has white and blue borders and a library filled with books and is currently one of the most touristy places in the city.

Also known as ‘PattharGirja’ (church of stones), this place is a must-visit when one is in Allahabad. This is an astonishing marvel and the church is made in a Gothic style which was built by Sir Willian Emerson. He was the same architect who built Victoria Memorial in Calcutta. One must see the amazing glasswork and magnificent carvings because they are fascinating. This church is a quiet place and one can spend some moments of peace here.

Allahabad Fort

This fort stands tall along the banks of the Yamuna River and it is an example of sheer architectural brilliance. This fort is said to be built by Ashoka the Great but later it was repaired by Akbar around 1583. Although this fort is under the administration of the Indian Army at present, there is a part of it that is open for public viewing. This looks gorgeous undoubtedly but one should also see the Ashok Pillar there which carries all the edicts.

Chandra Shekhar Azad Park

A park that is rich in history is also known as Alfred Park. This is the location where freedom Chandrashekhar Azad shot himself before British police could arrest him. In his honor, a statue has been erected to commemorate the spot. The park also has statues of George V and Queen Victoria at the center which adds to the beauty of the place.

Kumbh Mela

Though not a permanent thing, this mela drives the greatest number of tourists to Allahabad. This is a Hindu pilgrim fair that is held in four different places in the country. The story behind this is the mythology where God and Demons fought for the pot of nectar (Amrit Kumbh). Most people gather here in large crowds to get a dip at the confluence of 3 rivers to purify their souls before entering the realm of God. Since this festival happens at a gap of every 12 years, millions of people wait for it. The next mela is scheduled for 2025.Ardh Kumbh Mela
