Stargazing - A simple way to boost your mood
Gaze Up at the Night Sky: A Simple Way to Boost Your Mood
Feeling a little down or low on energy? The answer might be as simple as looking up. Research from Coventry University suggests that stargazing can naturally boost your mood by triggering the release of serotonin and dopamine—hormones known to promote happiness and reduce fatigue.
The Science Behind Stargazing and Well-Being
This effect, sometimes called skychology, is linked to the feelings of awe and wonder we experience when gazing at a vast, starry sky. Consultant psychologist Dr. Elena Touroni explains, “Stargazing allows us to connect with something greater than ourselves. This can be very beneficial for those with depression, where there tends to be more focus on the self.”
Beyond improving mood, stargazing also encourages mindfulness, helping you focus on the present moment and let go of daily stresses. And with spring’s warmer evenings, now is the perfect time to step outside and experience the benefits for yourself.
How to Get Started with Stargazing
You don’t need a telescope to enjoy the wonders of the night sky. There are free tools available that let you identify stars, constellations, and planets simply by pointing your smartphone at the sky. Whether you’re in the countryside or a city park, taking a few moments to stargaze could be just the mood-boosting reset you need.
