Rituals – Sun, expose yourself before 10 a.m


Health & Biohacking › Ritual Sheet

Sunlight — expose yourself before 10 a.m.

10–15 minutes of natural light → better alertness & mood.

Every morning, your biological clock waits for a clear signal: light.
Before your first coffee, a simple exposure to sunlight activates your energy, balances your mood, and synchronises your hormones.
It’s a free, natural gesture — and yet one of the most powerful in biohacking.

The protocol

  • Duration: 10 to 15 minutes of direct exposure (not through glass).
  • Timing: before 10 a.m., ideally within an hour after waking.
  • Frequency: every day, even when cloudy.
  • Without sunglasses to fully capture the light.
  • Bonus: combine with a gentle walk or mindful breathing to reinforce the circadian effect.

What you feel

A smoother “start-up” feeling: your mind clears, your mood stabilises.
At night, you fall asleep naturally, as your brain received the right dose of light at the right moment.
It’s a real biological reset — simple, visible, cumulative.

🌞 Morning sunlight is your biological coffee: free, endless, and designed to wake you up.
