Extra sunrise/sunset options for a routine that's right for you

Since time began, humans have learned to respond to the rising dawn by slowly waking up. Today, however, we tend to startle ourselves awake with an abrupt alarm call that can leave us feeling weary and irritable all day. Fortunately, with these ingenious gradual natural sunrise alarm clocks, we can return to the natural way to wake.

The Lumie Bodyclock natural alarm clock dawn simulator is a daylight alarm clock as it imitates a sunrise effect beside your bed - from the first faint glimmer of dawn, gradually increasing in brightness until you gently wake up the way nature intended, fresh and alert with your body clock perfectly synchronised.

The affordable Body clock features a unique innovation - its rear-facing light attractively simulates the rays of the dawning sun onto the wall making it the perfect natural light alarm clock.


 

It can help reduce the symptoms of Seasonal Affective Disorder SAD, and Winter Blues. Typical symptoms of Seasonal SAD are depression, lethargy, anxiety, craving, social problems, sleep problems and loss of libido. Click here to read more on Seasonal Affective Disorder - S.A.D

This is just some of the research into dawn simulation and its beneficial effects on sleep, waking, mood and energy.

Is dawn simulation effective in ameliorating the difficulty awakening in seasonal affective disorder associated with hypersomnia?

J Affect Disord. 2002 May;69(1-3):231-6.

People with SAD often find it really hard to wake up and this study showed that dawn simulation could be of particular benefit. After one week of waking with dawn simulation, SAD sufferers were assessed and had considerably lower scores in respect of difficulty awakening and sleepiness. Click here to read the full abstract.
