Getting just a few minutes of sunlight in the morning can have a powerful effect on your health. Natural light helps regulate your circadian rhythm — your body’s internal clock — which controls sleep, energy, digestion, and hormone levels. Morning sunlight triggers the production of serotonin, a mood-boosting chemical, and helps your body start making melatonin later in the evening, leading to better sleep. Even 10–15 minutes near a window or outside can make a difference, especially if you expose your eyes and skin (without sunglasses, if possible). Sunlight also supports vitamin D production, which is crucial for bone health, immune function, and inflammation control. If mornings feel slow or foggy, this simple habit can reset your day naturally. Pair it with a short walk, a stretch, or even your morning coffee — and feel the benefits throughout the day. It’s a small act with a big impact.
