Changing climate conditions in the world and in our country have become a natural part of our lives. When we woke up one morning, it was 28 degrees, hot and sunny, but the next morning we woke up to 15 degrees, cold and cloudy weather. These sudden changes in the weather cause us to experience spiritual changes and will continue to do so. It is known from research that air temperature and sunlight have effects on human psychology.
So, what is the relationship between weather and human psychology?
We experience biological and psychological changes as a result of sudden changes in the weather. While we are more tired in the winter months, we prefer to consume low-energy and high-calorie foods, in the spring months we prefer to consume more lively, higher-energy and lower-calorie foods, such as plants. As a result of sudden changes in the weather, conditions that vary from person to person may occur, such as depression, excessive emotionality, sensitivity or tendency to conflict, fatigue, joint and headaches, problems falling asleep or excessive sleeping, eating changes. It is generally known that in rainy, overcast weather, people's energy decreases, they become more introverted and pessimistic, and in extremely hot weather, they get into conflict more quickly and become impatient, sluggish and tired. It is known that sunny, clear, clean air has positive effects on human psychology.
The sun, the world's largest energy source, also affects our biological and spiritual states. Studies have shown that sunlight increases serotonin in our body. So what is this serotonin?
It is a chemical that keeps our psychology in balance, gives us a feeling of vitality, happiness and liveliness, helps regulate our sleep cycle, supports our attention, and ensures communication between cells in the brain. In serotonin deficiency, situations such as tired and bored mood, increased anxiety, unhappiness, difficulty falling asleep or transitioning to sleep may occur. Therefore, keeping the serotonin level in balance is important for psychological and physiological health. To keep this level balanced For: exercising, spending time in daylight, staying away from stressful situations and events as much as possible, consuming foods rich in tryptophan, B6, B9, B12, and minimizing alcohol and caffeine consumption will help maintain serotonin levels.
Wishing you a happy, peaceful, healthy summer with plenty of serotonin.
