Reviews Philips HF3520 Wake-Up Light With Colored Sunrise Simulation, White

This Philips HF3520 Wake-Up Light With Colored Sunrise Simulation is a well thought out product. It takes some experimenting with the settings to get it set to be ideal for how you want to be woken up, but it works very, very well once you figure out what works for you and there's more than enough customizable settings to do the job.

This one actually LOOKS like a sunrise. The radio and birdsongs can be turned off for a silent, light-only alarm. The light begins to glow before the actual alarm time so that is fully bright at alarm time. The light turns off by itself after about an hour after the alarm goes off, giving me time to get ready in the morning.

Reviews Uplift Technologies DL930 Day-Light 10,000 Lux SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) Lamp

I use this  Uplift Technologies DL930 Day-Light 10,000 Lux whenever I feel a little bummed out, especially on rainy days. If you have SAD, regular depression or even just general winter blues, give this lamp a try. It may seem a little pricy or even "new age-y," but the science behind it just makes good sense, and the price is extremely reasonable compared to other models out there.

White light does not contain UVA or UVB rays, and has been used in hospitals to combat depression for almost 20 years. It helps in about 50% of cases of Seasonal Affective Disorder. Improved mood-yes, decreased cravings for carbs.-yes, my body thinks it's sunny all the time in Seattle-yes. It was worth every penny.

Bright, convenient size, great light! Reviews Lightphoria Euphoric Energy Light System

I've used a much bigger SAD light that I borrowed from my friend and this is a much more compact version of that. This Lightphoria Euphoric Energy Light System is like a travel version that will fit into a handcarry bag easily. I was expecting this unit to be less effecient, but 30 minutes a day gives me the daily light dosage I need on this little unit.

This Lightphoria Euphoric Energy Light System product has several settings so you can slowly adjust to it, it actually does what it is supposed to do which is to simulate sunlight. I can finally stay awake for long periods of time after using this item for a few weeks.
