Just a quick check to see how you are doing since last weekend's "spring forward" for Daylight Saving Time. While losing one hour may seem harmless, it can actually throw our bodies and schedules off for a few days!
Here are some Pros and Cons of DST:
PROS👍
*safety - more daylight makes driving safer, lowers risk of car accidents, and pedestrians struck by vehicles
*good for economy - more daylight - more time for shopping after work, increasing sales
*uses less electricity - lower power bills
*active lifestyle - more time for outdoor activities after work and school
*fewer crimes - more light makes it easier for criminals to be identified
CONS 👎
*increased health issues & sleepiness - disrupts the body's circadian rhythm
*confused time schedules - not only people but also pets, businesses, industry
*decreased productivity
It's good advice to just embrace the longer hours of daylight and let go of excuses that may be holding us back!🌞
