Create Good Light
Good light is important to creating the mental energy necessary for making money your way.
In the Biology of Success, Dr. Bob Arnot says, “The modern urban lifestyle that keeps us indoors imposes darkness to such an extent that many people can seem chronically light-deprived and exhibit what seems like depression or a seasonal affective disorder all the time.”
“Since room light rarely exceeds 600 lux, and since you need at least 1000 lux to start reaping the biological benefits of light, consider installing a special lighting system. By ‘lighting system’ I mean an apparatus (not just individual light bulbs) that you buy in a store. When you buy a lighting apparatus, the bulbs are in a configuration in a system with the specific filtering and bulb placement that are critical design factors.”
“Dr. (Michael) Ternan, a professor of Clinical Psychology in Psychiatry at Columbia University and a specialist in light therapy, recommends the Sphere One Lighting Apparatus. The bulbs installed in the Sphere One apparatus offer white illumination. Sphere One carefully screens its lighting systems for ultraviolet illumination and attenuates the blue range of light; the blue range of light is non-optimal for long-term exposure because blue photons are very energetic and bounce around the eyeball, creating a glare sensation that is very unpleasant at high intensity.”
A number of excellent natural spectrum lamps, to help you create good light, are available at gaiam.com, under eco-home and outdoor.
