Waiting for the Winter Solstice

The trees are bare, the rain never seems to stop, the temperature hovers around freezing, the patio furniture is safely tucked away, the pool has been closed up and the Sun comes out less and less every day until the coming solstice. Have your vitamin D reserves been depleted by seasonal depression? You’re not alone! For many years, studies have shown that our moods and our energy levels are greatly affected by exposure to light. And as we are all aware, November is not exactly known for being the brightest month of the year.

Health experts categorically agree that increased physical exercise, outdoor activity and a healthy diet are among the most effective methods for beating the November blues!

In Harmony with Nature

Have you ever heard of biophilia? Introduced into the world of scientific literature in 1984 by Edward O. Wilson, an American Biologist, biophilia is defined as “the urge to associate with other forms of life”.

Professionals in the field of architecture use this principle in designing living and working spaces, prioritizing access to outdoor views and exposure to natural light, along with the choice of more natural materials, like wood.

Pleasing Your Senses

Are you fed up with greyness and dullness? Instead of feeling sorry for yourself, take November by the horns and focus on your own wellness. After absorbing as much sunlight as you can, indulge in a little self-care time, soaking in a hot tub and enjoying a gourmet meal to reconnect with your inner being. Fortunately, Ôrigine makes it easy for you to access all of these little delights.
