As Winter Storm Linus batters the Hudson Valley today, Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow this morning, meaning six more weeks of winter.
But records show that since 1887, he’s been correct just 39% of the time.
So Think Spring!
And here’s some health benefits to spring springing early:
1) You burn more calories (more active);
2) You eat better (getting ready for bathing suit season);
3) You feel less stressed (studies have linked access to green spaces to reduced stress);
4) You’ll breathe easier being outside more (less pollutants outdoors).
