Have you ever wondered why a trip to the beach or day outside in the fresh air is so invigorating? Have you noticed that you feel better, happier and more content, and even sleep better after a day spent outdoors? University studies have shown that there is a reason for these good moods that are not simply attributable to relaxation or a day off work. The great news is that you can help to create an environment to give you these same benefits every day at home, at work, and every place you go.
The air we breathe is electrically charged with both positive and negative molecular ions with the composition of the balance or imbalance of these ions affecting our moods and health. An imbalance of ions exists in the enclosed spaces where we spend most of our time. Electrical appliances like computer screens, TVs, radios, and air conditioning create a surplus of positive ions resulting in a kind of electrical “smog” that has a negative effect on our moods, energy levels, alertness, and health. This requires the addition of negative ions, or anions, to the air to regain the balance.
