Lift your spirits juice

Feeling a little low lately due to the cold weather and some personal stuff I'm trying to work though. A simple juice that makes me more light hearted is a combo of oranges, lemon, ginger and strawberries. I've been doing some reading and it turns out citrus smells have been studied and are proven to lighten your spirits. "Citrus is shown to help patients affected by hysteria and depression... Pleasant smells lower the heart rate and reduce stress, and that in itself makes you feel better," according to Dr Charles Spence Dr. Charles Spence is an experimental psychologist at the University of Oxford. He is the head of the Crossmodal Research group which specializes in the research about the integration of information across different sensory modalities.
