October Newsletter

Welcome to the October edition of the MDF Newsletter. I hope you all had a good summer, and that it was relaxing and not too stressful! Dark nights are rapidly approaching, which can be an issue for those of us who find that their moods are affected by the changing seasons. It would be helpful if you could let me know your thoughts on this issue, as if it is particularly relevant to our members I will feature an article on the way that moods are affected by the changing seasons and the lack of light during the winter months. I can be contacted at hysteresisland@yahoo.com or in person at our monthly meetings. Hope to see you all at the October meeting. Jo
