    Given that itsgr spring, why not embark on a garden project of some description? Some decking perhaps, a barbecue area or something you can enjoy when the weather gets nice.

    Outdoor physical work is spiritually uplifting as your contact with nature earths out any negativity.

    You might shift a few pounds too
