I'm pretty sure that most of your other activities can be done without money as well. Maybe not exactly the way you want them to be done, but as a start at least!

First off, you are saying you are not getting a lot of sunlight... I would say to make it your first step to go out every single day and be in the sun for an hour or so. If you combine it with taking a walk, it means that you are also getting some exercise and some meditation time

3 for the price of 1.

You have no idea how much my mood has changed, just by moving to Mexico and having more sun and being more in the sun daily... I understand that that isn't an option for you now But you can start by taking long daily walks...

Even if the sun isn't shining 50% of the UVB still filters through.. so a cloudy day, week or year isn't an excuse to not do it
I do like walking, but I have this other wierd problem...I feel uncomfortable walking during the day. I usually go for walks either at sunrise or sunset, I completely prefer sunrise though because most people aren't up yet and the world is quiet and peaceful. I hate being out during the day, I have never liked it. I've always been a nightowl. If I go for a walk during the day, with loud cars going past me and dogs barking as I walk by, and people seeing me, it bothers me so much that I end my walks early. I like being outside when there is nobody else out there, and the world is much more beautiful at sunrise than any other time, I think. So thats the struggle I have, if I'm not able to be up between 5 and 7 am to go for my walks then, I pretty much hide indoors.
