7. Sunlight
If you have a vitamin D deficiency, we recommend you consider going outside in the sunlight every day for 15 minutes. This is a life-changing, free therapy to naturally decrease depression and anxiety.
A walk at dawn when the sun is shyly starting to shine or in the early evening will optimize the effects. According to a Japanese study, walking in the forest for 20 minutes each day is known to lower stress hormone levels. If you live in an urban area, consider going to nearby parks or tranquil tree-line streets for a stroll. But don’t forget to cover up and wear sunscreen!
