"By the 1980s, psychologists began studying how time in nature reduced stress and improved mental health. 🌿
Just 20 minutes outdoors was found to lower cortisol — the stress hormone — and boost serotonin levels.

💡 Lesson from history: The natural world has always been part of our mental balance.

✨ Modern tip: Take a walk outside, breathe fresh air, or simply look at the sky for a few minutes. Nature restores calm and clarity."

Isolation can worsen seasonal depression, but connection builds resilience.
Even one supportive conversation can make a world of difference.

"By the 1950s, scientists began to uncover how sleep directly affects mood, memory, and emotional balance. 💤
Today, we know that disrupted sleep is closely tied to seasonal depression — shorter days can throw off our body’s natural rhythm.

💡 Lesson from history: Rest is medicine. Consistent sleep helps your brain reset and recover.

✨ Modern tip: Keep a regular sleep schedule and avoid screens before bed to support better rest and brighter mornings."
