How many times have you felt the whole world against you? You may not know, but also our sleep can be influenced by factors that go far beyond our control!
The sun, the moon, the seasons and even some planets have an effect on our well-being! Find out more!
Seasons
During the winter season almost everyone happen to feel more tired and sleepy. It is no coincidence that many animal species go into hibernation in the winter to recharge their energies and face the fine weather at their best!

The weather
Sun, rain, fog: also weather conditions affect our rest. Referred to as S.A.D. (Seasonal Affective Disorder), it’s a real disorder caused by bad weather and has an impact on the production of melatonin, the hormone which regulates sleep.
The sun
Our biological clock also needs precise external signals in order to set itself. Sunlight and darkness are essential key factors in this respect.
Waking up with the sun’s natural light, spending more time outdoors and avoiding switching on too many lights at home in the evening, help our bodies understand when it’s time to be awake and when it’s time to get to bed!
The moon
A research published several years ago on the scientific magazine Current Biology reported impressive data on the negative effects of a full moon on our sleep: sleeping hours are reduced by about 20 minutes and deep sleep of 30%!
Jupiter and Mercury
According to astrology enthusiasts, also Mercury and Jupiter have power over our sleep! Is this true? Take a look at the astral calendar after your next sleepless night!
