Why Do You Need More Sleep in the WInter

In the Winter many people wonder why it is so hard to get out of bed. Part of it is probably due to the fact that people don't want to get out of their warm bed but there is also some scientific reasoning behind it. During the winter there is not as much sunlight and when we are lacking in sunlight we convert the neurotransmitter serotonin into melotonin. When this conversion happens we want to sleep more. So it is natural to want to sleep more in the winter. This is one of the reasons why it is important to get some sunshine everyday.
