I don't know about you, but this past weekend I was excited to get an extra hour of sleep thanks to Daylight Saving Time. Yet, whenever we manipulate our normal body rhythms there may be other effects we don't quite predict (and I'm not talking about an extra glow due to additional beauty rest). Recent research has shown a link between setting the clock back and increased rates of depression. This is likely due to less sun exposure and thus a decrease in serotonin levels in our brains. To combat these negative effects, researchers suggest we purposefully try to spend time in the sun each day. Follow the link below to watch a short video about these interesting findings.
