- A lot of the information shared in this episode, specifically on the effects of exercise and the sun on our hormones/ circadian rhythm, comes from The DOSE effect, TJ Power (excellent book could not recommend enough)
- Another noteworthy article I read whilst researching for this episode was Exercise is as effective as antidepressants for many cases of depression.Links to my socials:
