How Can You Not Love a Sunset?


According to a study published this year by a pair of British researchers, sunsets are unmatched in their ability to inspire awe among people. They surpass the majesty of storms, the beauty of rainbows, clear blue skies, and even breathtaking nightscapes.

No wonder we chose Baja and soon-to-be Santa Fe as MEA campuses, where every evening brings a new piece of natural theater with vivid colors that leave us in awe. While researchers suggest late fall or early winter as the best time to view a sunrise or sunset, I find them stunning all year round, especially after a summer rainstorm in Santa Fe.

And then, there’s the elusive green flash that occasionally appears on the ocean horizon during Baja sunsets. Technically speaking, it happens due to the atmosphere refracting the sun’s light into different frequencies, and it’s enhanced by mirages. Contrary to popular opinion, green flashes are real and not a result of too many margaritas! Down here in Baja, we call them magic.

For our MEA alums who have captured sunset photos in Baja, please share them on our social media pages or wherever you see this blog post.

There’s nothing like waking up to a social media sunset or, even better, catching a real one after a long siesta.

PS. Sometimes we need a nudge, inspiration, or new tools to move through what has become stagnant. If that’s you, join MEA for a free live workshop, “Stuck at a Crossroads? Transform Your Biggest Transition into Your Best Teacher” on May 8th at 2:00 pm PT | 5:00 ET, featuring Kari Cardinale, SVP MEA Digital.
