TEMPERATURES ARE MODERATE
Spring marks the end of blistering winter and the transitional period to scorching summer. The Earth's axis is angled between its closest and furthest position from the Sun, when temperatures are the most extreme. You can finally ditch the winter layers.
THERE ARE MORE HOURS IN THE DAY
Following the spring equinox, when the Earth’s horizon is perfectly aligned with the Sun, the days begin lasting longer and the nights get shorter. That means you have more time in the day to get things done.
YOU’RE ACTUALLY HAPPIER
Exposure to sunlight increases the hormone serotonin in your brain, which makes you feel happy.
YOU FEEL ENERGIZED
Exposure to sunlight decreases the chemical melatonin in your body during the day and increases it at night, which helps you sleep better.
TREES SUDDENLY HAVE LEAVES
Spring brings growth back to plants and trees. A successful spring leaf growth ensures a cool canopy to relax under during the hot summer.
FRUITS AND VEGGIES ARE READY TO EAT
After staying dormant all winter and conserving energy underground, many fruits and vegetables sprout in the spring. There is nothing more pleasant than eating a peach right off a tree or a string bean from the pod.
FLOWERS BLOOM
After months spent conserving energy, colorful flowers bloom in the spring, signaling to the bees that they are ready for pollination. And science has proven that looking at buttercups can make you happy. A 2007 study found that people in yellow rooms at cocktail parties were more lively and talkative. Spring’s yellow flowers could also lift your mood.
THE SNOW IS GONE
Increasing temperatures means that snow and ice will no longer plague your commute or lawn.
YOU CAN OPEN YOUR WINDOWS
With warm weather comes warm air. Open your windows to allow the breeze to refresh your home.
