Lumie Bodyclock Glow 150 Wake-up Light SAD Alarm

Introduction

Lumie Bodyclock wakes you naturally with a sunrise. Waking with light has been shown to improve mood, energy, productivity, and the quality of sleep and awakening.1 Wake-up lights can also help sufferers of SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) and winter blues cope with dark winter mornings.2 At bedtime, a fading sunset helps you naturally unwind by promoting the production of the sleep hormone melatonin.3 Use Lumie Bodyclock all year round to encourage a regular sleep-wake pattern. Research indicates that dawn simulation is generally safe and has minimal serious side effects. If you have any concerns, please contact Lumie or speak to your doctor.
