Healthy Lighting For Your Home!
Healthy Lighting For Your Home!
Recently, researchers have discovered that lighting in the home has a much greater impact on health and well-being than originally thought. Better lighting can boost your energy, help you sleep better, and even enhance healing.
So it pays to make sure the lighting in your home is healthy.

sunlight. For example, reposition a favourite reading chair
next to a window.
Consider dimming the lighting in your home during the

disturbed sleep.
