Getting sunlight in my eyes first thing in the morning is vital for mental and physical health, even on cloudy days, as it stimulates alertness.

To support your circadian clock, get sunlight in your eyes early in the day and whenever you want to feel awake, as getting two hours a day of outdoor time without sunglasses significantly reduces the probability of developing myopia, or nearsightedness.

To set a proper circadian rhythm, you need bright light in the morning, hydration, movement, and caffeine. If you can't get sunlight, use bright artificial light.

Viewing bright light early in the day helps synchronize the cortisol pulse, providing energy and focus for the day.

Getting sunlight throughout the day, especially in the late afternoon and evening, can help improve mood and brain function.

Getting outside for about 5 to 10 minutes every morning is extremely important, even if it's cloudy, as it provides more photon energy than bright indoor lights.

Every person should ideally view bright light, preferably sunlight, within 30 minutes to an hour of waking up to optimize health.

We are responsible for our well-being, and while there are no magic solutions, practices like morning light exposure and journaling can help.

My morning workout is my mental health check; it's my time to be quiet and in my zone, which keeps me sane.
