What is Sunshine?
Sunlight triggers an increase in the brain chemical serotonin. Serotonin controls sleep patterns, body temperature, sex drive, and also lifts your mood and wards off depression. Some people are extra sensitive to the lack of sunshine in the winter and may experience Seasonal Affective Disorder.
