How Light Quality, Exposure, & Timing Affect Mental & Physical Health

The type, quality, and timing of light we’re exposed to has a big impact on physical and mental health. 💡⁣
⁣
This is true for adults and children, and exceptionally true for children with sensitive nervous systems! ⁣
⁣
Many of the attention, anxiety, mood, regulation and behavior challenges kids experience are influenced by their light environment. ⁣
⁣
Research has told us for years, for example, that low quality florescent lighting is detrimental to kids learning and behavior…yet we still sit them under it for many hours a day. This is just one example of how lack of attention to this important issue undermines our kids’ health and success.⁣
⁣
The type of light kids are exposed to and the timing of that exposure makes a difference in how they feel and function. But, it isn’t something most people are even aware of because we tend to live our lives bathed in poor quality light and exposed at times that don’t support our natural brain and body rhythms. ⁣
⁣
That means we aren’t even able to notice how negatively light is impacting us…unless we have the opportunity to totally reset and get away from low-quality artificial lights for a while.⁣
⁣
And that’s exactly what my podcast guest this week, Roudy Nassif, did! What he discovered was that the chronic debilitating brain symptoms that had plagued him for years (including ADHD, brain fog, sleep problems, depression, anxiety, and more) improved significantly when he was exposed to healthy light at the right times of day. ⁣
⁣
Our conversation about the science behind light, what you need to be thinking about for yourself and your kids, and how to make simple changes for big impact is one you don’t want to miss.⁣
