As we bid farewell to the short days of winter, there is no better time to appreciate your alliance with the sun. Recognized in astrology as the ‘planet’ symbolizing one’s will and sense of vitality, the sun’s energy has been revered for centuries. As technology has evolved allowing us to dive deeper, these ancient ideas have only become more validated. As humans our biology is recognizing the lengthening of the days by the light waves coming in through our eyes and onto the skin. These cells are sharing important information with the organs in our bodies that help ensure the rhythms of our body stays in sync. These include hormones and neurotransmitters responsible for adequate sleep, metabolism, mood, immune system, and even the growth of hair, skin, nails and bone.
