Sunrise and sunset play a crucial role in regulating your circadian rhythm — your body’s internal 24-hour clock that influences sleep, alertness, hormones, digestion, and many other biological functions.

🌅 Sunrise (Morning Light Exposure)
1. Resets your internal clock:
When your eyes detect natural light in the morning, especially blue-enriched light from the sun, it signals your brain’s suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) (the “master clock”) to reset for the day.

2. Suppresses melatonin:
Morning light stops melatonin production (the hormone that makes you sleepy) and helps you feel awake and alert.

3. Boosts cortisol naturally:
Cortisol rises in the morning as part of your body’s normal rhythm, helping you feel energized and focused.

4. Synchronizes your rhythms:
Consistent morning light exposure helps align your sleep-wake cycle, making it easier to fall asleep at night and wake up at the same time every day.

🌇 Sunset (Evening Light Exposure)

1. Signals your body to wind down:
As natural light fades and red/orange wavelengths dominate, your body recognizes that it’s time to prepare for rest.

2. Triggers melatonin release:
The decrease in light intensity (especially blue light) tells the brain to start producing melatonin, promoting drowsiness.

3. Stabilizes sleep timing:
Experiencing natural dusk light helps your circadian rhythm anticipate sleep onset, making your bedtime feel more “natural.”

I love a good sunrise sea swim… Hythe this morning 🌅

🍂✨ Happy Autumn Equinox, friends ✨🍂

Today, light and dark share the sky in perfect balance — a reminder that harmony lives within us too. The equinox invites us to pause, breathe deeply, and honour both the energy we’re ready to release and the intentions we wish to plant for the season ahead.

In yoga, this is a beautiful time to ground down, root into the earth, and flow with mindful balance, helping us align with the rhythm of change. 🍁

Take a moment today to:
🌿 Step outside and notice the shift in the air
🌿 Reflect on what you’re ready to let go of
🌿 Set one small, nourishing intention for Autumn

Wishing you peace, balance, and presence as we transition into this golden season. 🍂🧘‍♀️✨
