Take short light breaks: Go outside for daylight
In a busy everyday life, it can be difficult to find time to take breaks and get out into the daylight. But the fact is that daylight has a major impact on our health and performance. According to research, daylight affects both our physical and mental well-being in many different ways. That's why it's important to prioritize short light breaks outdoors to benefit from the many benefits that daylight can bring.
Why is daylight so important?
Daylight plays a crucial role in our bodies and minds. Studies show that daylight has a positive effect on our sleep quality, mood, concentration, and even our overall health. When we spend time in daylight, our bodies produce more serotonin, also known as the "happy hormone," which can improve our mood and mental well-being. In addition, daylight helps regulate our circadian rhythm and sleep patterns, which can have a positive effect on our overall health.
How can you get more daylight into your everyday life?
There are several ways to integrate short light breaks outdoors into your daily routine. A simple way is to take a short walk during your lunch break or after work. By getting outside and moving around, you can benefit from both the sun's rays and the benefits of exercise. Another option is to arrange your work environment so that you have access to natural light through windows or by spending time outdoors in a garden or on a terrace.

How can I ensure that I get enough daylight during the day?
