Under the weather!

Patrick Young was right when he said that "The trouble with weather forecasting is that its right too often for us to ignore it and wrong too often for us to rely on it" ....Agreed weather is a great metaphor for life-sometimes good, sometimes bad and there is nothing we can do about it....but can the weather affect our mood...this has always been an intriguing subject...like when the days are bright and sunny, one feels happy and energetic, and when it is cold you feel sad, melancholy or even depressed...probably most people feel a little more blue in the winter and better in the spring but you can't quite put your finger on it. The question rises if there's any evidence to substantiate these seemingly bizarre occurances? Phenomenon? .....Guess changing season is a happier state of mind...one of the secrets of Nature lies in its mood of mockery...fine weather lays heavier weight on mind and hearts of the depressed....but no doubt that there is a muscular energy in sunlight and being outside in pleasant weather really offers a way to re-set your mind set, keeping moods upbeat and cheerful and that's what I'm waiting for....it is the sun that affects the aura.... not that we haven't got much of it this time but at the same time hasn't come full fledged either....its been a roller coaster for a while now ...warm and cold, warm and cold, so this also makes it difficult to keep everyone well...May be this unknown author is right when he/ she quoted "Bad weather always looks worse through a window".....

Researchers found out that taking a trip to someplace warm in the middle of winter or lingering outside when spring arrives can be especially beneficial with pleasant weather improving mood, memory and broadening cognitive style as time spent outside increased. At the same time it should not be surprising that weather and seasons affect human behavior, given that humans evolved with seasonal and weather changes since the dawn of the species. Guess we should all take a lesson from weather-it pays no attention to criticism.

A straightforward prescription "If you wish to reap the psychological benefits of weather specially spring and summer, go outside"
