Life-changing light therapy for best-ever mood and energy
Sunlight enhances mood, energy, and alertness naturally by influencing body chemistry, including melatonin and serotonin levels. When daylight hours are limited (think: autumn and winter) and time spent indoors increases, many people experience fatigue, sluggishness, and irritability due to inadequate light exposure. Bright light therapy mimics natural daylight, providing a natural boost to mood, energy, and alertness, and serves as an effective way to help ease winter blues and seasonal mood changes.
FAQs
What are Lumie bright light therapy lamps?
Lumie bright light therapy lamps are expertly designed to deliver safe, natural, and UV-free light by mimicking the brightness and intensity of sunlight. Their light output is much higher than standard indoor lighting, with all Lumie lamps delivering 10,000 lux. Bright light therapy is commonly used to help regulate circadian rhythms, support better sleep, boost energy, and ease winter blues and seasonal mood changes.
How does bright light therapy work?
Bright light therapy works by mimicking natural sunlight, stimulating the brain and suppressing the production of melatonin, a hormone that regulates sleep-wake cycles. Bright light also helps stimulate the release of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that plays a role in mood regulation. Exposure to bright light helps to reset the body's internal clock and improve mood, energy levels, and overall well-being.
Can bright light therapy help with winter blues or seasonal mood changes?
Yes, bright light therapy is a simple, natural way to support mood and energy when daylight hours are shorter. Exposure to bright light can help ease low mood, fatigue, and sluggishness, making it especially helpful during autumn and winter months when natural sunlight is limited.
How long do I need to use a Lumie bright light therapy lamp each day?
Lumie lamps are designed to deliver the right brightness, intensity, and color temperature for effective daily use. Many people find that just 30 minutes a day is enough, though everyone’s needs are different. A good place to start is 30–60 minutes each morning. You can also break this up into shorter sessions or add another session later in the day. Lots of users enjoy a boost of alertness from a quick session after lunch to help beat the afternoon slump.
Can I use a bright light therapy lamp while doing other activities, such as reading or working?
Yes, our bright light therapy lamps are designed to be used during activities like reading, working, or doing other tasks. You do not need to be staring directly into the light as you will find this quite uncomfortable due to how bright the light is. However, it is recommended to position the lamp at a distance and angle that allows the light to reach your eyes (without causing discomfort).
