DISCOVER THE BENEFITS OF OUTDOOR LIVING IN THE WINTER By Liv Sabat
There are so many benefits of spending time outdoors in the winter. Let’s talk about some of them: • Vitamin D – despite lack of sunshine, there is still enough daylight to reach daily intake for most people, depending upon how long you are outdoors. • Increased creativity and concentration – by just taking a stroll outside you can experience fundamental improvements in brain function and mental focus. • Avoiding ‘indoor’ germs – spending more time outside will assist the development of a strong immune system. • Exercise – we all need a minimum of half an hour exercise a day.

With customisations and accessories, you can make sure you’re just as comfortable under your glass room as you are in your home. Add a heater and sliding glass doors and you’ll keep the chill of winter out without having to lift a finger – all while still getting to enjoy the fresh air.

You can add LED spotlights to your garden room, allowing you to exercise after work and still feel that crisp air. You can also opt to include RGB strip lights which allow you to create more of an atmosphere.
opportunities are endless because there are so many options to take into account: sliding glass doors, radiant heaters, LED spotlights, just to name a few.
If you’re working from home this can be the perfect space for your office. Just think, what if you could spend time outside at work, whilst working, having a meeting, on your lunch break? The
