A Great Way to Start the Day!

Many of us hate the dark winter mornings and find waking up increasingly difficult. The DawnLite Natural Alarm Clock helps to wake you naturally. As the lamp brightens gradually, your body automatically responds to the increasing light and you awake feeling refreshed and invigorated.

What is the DawnLite and why do I need it?

The DawnLite Natural Alarm Clock is a gentle and altogether calmer way to start the day. Instead of being shaken awake in the dark winter months with a noisy radio or bleeper, the DawnLite will naturally and gradually increase the light in the room to replicate a summer dawn.

With its practical, modern and sleek design, the DawnLite Natural Alarm Clock is also a bright reading light and when you are ready for sleep you can start your own sunset to help promote a deeper, more restful sleep.

The facts

Since 1993, research has been continuing into using a ‘dawn simulator’ to help those who simply don’t like dark mornings, to those with mild symptoms of S.A.D. This research has found that, as its light stimulates your body’s natural response to sunrise and sunset the Natural Alarm Clock can help synchronise the circadian rhythms -- your ’body clock’ -- improving energy, mood and efficiency.

The Essential Guide to Better Sleep

We all know when we have a good night’s sleep, we awake refreshed and ready to face the day ahead. We need sleep to restore and rejuvenate our body and brain, but with our 24-hour society, shift work and stresses of work and family life we are not always able to get the amount of sleep we need. Therefore, it is more important than ever to make the most of the sleep we do get.

From research, we know that it is better if you go to sleep in a really dark room. This encourages the production of melatonin which is the hormone that helps you to sleep. In fact, during the evening, if you can turn the lights down then this will start the production of melatonin which will help you sleep.

Your room should be comfortable - not too hot or too cold.

Try to avoid coffee, alcohol or a heavy meal too close to bedtime.

Try not to be disturbed, not easy if you have a young family but if the cat needs to go out, put it out before you go to bed.

The theory is that you should not read anything that is too exciting or stimulating, some doctors recommend Mills and Boon, but that might not be to everyone’s taste!

When you are ready for sleep, set the sunset mode on your DawnLite Natural Alarm Clock and, as the light dims, you will find yourself drifting off into a deep relaxing sleep.

So how much sleep is enough?

As we grow older we generally need less sleep. New babies need about 17 hours a day to help growth, children about 9-10 hours and most adults between 7 and 8 hours. These are the generally accepted ‘normal’ amounts of sleep required.

Waking every day to a gentle sunrise is a practical way to help improve your wellbeing, and promote health and vitality.
