Welcome to At Balance News
Goodbye winter hello spring….
March 20th is the first day of Spring. During the spring equinox we experience equal amounts of daylight and darkness. Afterward the length of the daylight will increase. Springtime is about birth and regrowth a time of balance and renewal. Currently nature begins to awaken and begin its period of growth.
This is the time to sow the seeds and nurture those ideas that you may have been postponing. Let go of the old and embrace new potentials!
This is a time to embrace new beginnings after the starkness and darkness of winter. Spring lifts our mood and increases our energy levels. This is because of the increased sunlight, and this can result in an increase of serotonin a hormone that is sometimes called the happy chemical but more importantly it regulates our mood.
Warmer and lighter days mean that people tend to be outside more and are more likely to be involved in outdoor activities because of this. Taking part in outdoor activities can have a positive impact on people’s mental health.
Fragrance Week
During the 17th - 23rd March it has been Fragrance Week and this is the time that we celebrate one of our most powerful senses our sense of smell. Our sense of smell is present before we can see and it is the scent that babies use in order to navigate their new world. So use this week to try out new scents, treat yourself to your favourite scent or take in the new scents as nature awakens during the season of spring if you want further details of what events are happening during fragrance week follow the link to the Fragrance foundation website The Fragrance Foundation UK
