Happy Day friends of @gems, it is a beautiful sunrise here in Venezuela.
There is only one star in the sky that shines during the day and disappears at night: the Sun. The protagonist of the solar system, who names the part of the universe in which we live, is essential for the existence of life on planet Earth.
Plants, animals, and humans depend on the star. Planets, dwarf planets, asteroids, comets, and cosmic dust revolve around them. The sun is the balance and the reason for life, the Bible calls it the greatest light.
The brightness and heat emanating from the star were once considered characteristics that were divine, leading to the appearance of gods who would be the very representation of the Sun. The Egyptian people believed that Ra was the god of the Sun. The Greeks argued that Helios was the divinity who represented the gods. dawn of days In Celtic mythology, Sun was the god Lugh.
The adoration of the Sun by the first peoples of the world was based on the effects that the star promotes on Earth.
In addition to defining the beginning of a new day, the sun is also essential for the development of plantations, being essential for the occurrence of rains and for supplying energy to the flora. The sun is essential for the balance of fauna and flora, but it also brings benefits to humans.
Benefits of the sun for people
Provide vitamin D
Vitamin D is an essential component for the human body. It is from there that the body absorbs calcium in the bones and muscles, being essential in the fight against rickets and osteoporosis. Foods like milk, butter, and salmon provide 10% of the total vitamin D a person needs, while the sun is responsible for providing the other 90%.
Regulates sleep
The human body recognizes the period of staying awake (waking up) and the period of sleeping (sleeping) of light and darkness. Therefore, sunbathing is what allows your body to recognize that it is time to wake up and regain your energy. On the other hand, when night falls, your body understands that it is time to rest.
Increase Serotonin levels
Serotonin is the name of a hormone that promotes the feeling of well-being in the human body. A person suffering from depression or going through the premenstrual period produces less serotonin than a person who does not experience these conditions. However, sun exposure can solve this problem, since it stimulates the body's production of serotonin.
How to enjoy the benefits of the sun
The benefits of the sun can bring a lot of well-being and a better quality of life for those who know how to enjoy them. Now you will learn what are the safest ways to use the sun for your good!
Sunbathe
Sunbathing is essential to regulate the sleep cycle, increase serotonin levels and mood, and absorb vitamin D. However, there is an appropriate time of day for this activity.
At least three times a week, you should sunbathe for 15 to 20 minutes, before 10 a.m. During this period, you should not use sunscreen, as it prevents the absorption of vitamin D.
In other cases, if you are on the beach and want to sunbathe, you can not do without sunscreen. Although the sun has many benefits, overexposure and unprotected exposure to sunlight can cause burns, blemishes, and, in the future, skin cancer.
To meditate
In my case, as a believer in God I like to pray and meditate. If you are going through a difficult time, without the strength to routinely face the air you can, feel the heat of the star travel through your body and take you to your stomach. Exhale very calmly, emptying the air from the trunk. Repeat the exercise three times, without thinking about the problems that are bothering you, you will have absorbed all the positivity of the Sun!
Solarized water
Assuming you liked the meditation technique to absorb the Sun's energy, but can't do it, there is another option. Solarized water can hydrate and energize you at the same time!
By consuming energized water for a period of one month, you will feel the flow of energies throughout your body.
"Let each one say what they want: the best stove is the sun.”
