The massive ball of fire that provides us light and sunshine every day does so much more than bring us much-needed Vitamin D and energy.
According to National Geographic, the sun “radiates light and heat, or solar energy, which makes it possible for life to exist on Earth.” Without the sun, there would be no plants, no animals, no winds, clouds, or even ocean currents. In fact without the power of the sun, our planet would cease to exist as we know it.
Aside from the life-giving tangible properties of the sun, this bountiful and beautiful star also provides us with life for our minds and mental health.
It is funny because as I am writing this, I just laid down on the ground of my living room in the one patch of sun that is shining inside. If that does not speak to humans’ natural desire to be in the sun, then I don’t know what does.
We all know the feeling of the sun splashing on our face for a kiss of warmth. Laying on beaches basking in the sun and consuming its rays. Sitting at a park or at a restaurant during golden hour. There is simply nothing better than feeling the beauty and power of the sun on your skin, in your life, and in the world around you.
Let’s look at the facts in favor of the importance and power that the sun has in our lives.
The things that give us life and joy are the things that we get to do outside. Nature nurtures us every day without us even noticing. Take in the power of the energy surrounding you, embodying you, and covering you in all directions. Take a moment to appreciate the power of the sun, of the rain, of nature, and allow it to fill you up and know that it is nurturing your garden, wherever it grows.
Growing together!
