"El Decaimiento" or "languor" is a common issue that affects people of all ages. In some Hispanic countries "el decaimiento" is believed to correlate with certain times of the year, such as fall and spring. People affected by "el decaimiento" experience an unusual lack of energy, lack of interest in engaging into everyday activities, sadness, and in occasions a desire to cry.

Those affected by "el decaimiento" are often given valerian, ginger, bee pollen, and are encouraged to walk and breath fresh air, taking advantage of the sun light, especially when this languor is experienced during the fall.
