"Something I discovered years ago—after being laid up in bed with a nasty flu bug, really bad cold—just as soon as I was sufficiently enough on the mend to manage to crawl outside, that sitting outside in bright sun made me feel a lot better."

Once upon a time, medicine knew about that effect. They called them "solariums".
