Humming is not just a simple act, but a technique that can bring numerous benefits to your mind and body. By humming, you stimulate the vagus nerve, promoting relaxation and reducing stress. The vibrations created during humming have a calming effect, helping you find a sense of peace and wellbeing. Moreover, humming increases the production of nitric oxide, improving blood flow and supporting cardiovascular health. It also enhances respiratory function, benefits vocal and throat health, and even uplifts mood. So, take a moment to hum, and experience the amazing benefits of this simple yet powerful practice.

Are you or a loved one experiencing sleep problems? The solution might be simpler than you think: morning sunlight.

While we often associate sunlight with vitamin D, its effects on the human body go much further. When we expose our skin to midday sun, we convert vitamin D and risk sunburn. However, sunrise light is different. All sunlight contains 42% infrared light, which can stimulate collagen production, improve bone healing, and heal wounds. Additionally, this type of infrared light has anti-aging properties, reducing wrinkles and scars.

Morning sunlight is critical in how we use sunlight throughout the day. Infrared light in the morning preconditions our skin to protect against the UVA and UVB rays that come out later. Around 10am, UVA raises its head, playing a critical role in producing nitric oxide, which increases energy, memory, and has anti-aging effects. UVA also triggers the production of serotonin and dopamine, releasing endorphins and creating a small opiate effect, leaving you feeling good. Ultimately, these neurotransmitters help release melatonin, the sleep neurotransmitter.
If you struggle with sleep issues, try timing your exposure to morning sunlight 12 hours before bed.

Health tip: Try getting up with the sunrise, exposing your eyes, skin, and brain to the benefits of sunlight.
