Every year when summer rolls around, it can feel as if a tangible weight has lifted off our collective shoulders. Like an ice cream cone on a hot summer day, all our worries seem to melt away when the sun beats down upon our bare shoulders. Plus, everything seems to slow down—we finally take that much-needed vacation, “Summer Fridays” shorten our work weeks, and even getting dressed in the morning is easier and breezier—fewer layers, less bother. Staying close to nature improves physical, mental, and spiritual well-being, it makes us feel alive from the inside.
Summer is a time when we all decide to break up our normal routines and rack up new experiences—visiting new cities, trying new foods, spending time with old friends, and making new ones. This also means we’re finally taking some time to relax—and sleep. The longer days and the sunshine brighten up our mood. We feel the same way as the plants do that awaken to new life in spring. However, spring fever of the kind that is often described is more likely to take place in films and books. Like in the TV series “Julia – Ways to Happiness” or in books with great love stories that are supposed to warm the heart and arouse spring fever.
It is nature that drives our feelings to heights in spring and summer. It can be seen every year: as soon as the temperatures rise, we are drawn outside to nature. Every year spring and summer impel us. In general summer is positive for almost everyone. So let us enjoy this time of the year to the fullest, it is and remains the perfect time to flirt and fall in love. And, no, you’re not imagining it: summer really does just hit differently.
