Inappropriate lighting and inappropriate darkness at inappropriate times is wreaking havoc on our health everyday but at an imperceptible pace and intensity at a subconscious level.

Compared to the intensities of light and darkness exposure over millions of years, our technological advances and modern lifestyle have effectively turned our days into night and our nights into day. This is more true in our homes, as we spend the key triggering points of this cycle at our homes.

Our biological responses are misfiring because of these perpetual inaccurate cues, resulting in the manifestation of many lifestyle diseases like sleeping disorders, obesity, diabetes, ADHD (Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), ASD ( Autism Spectrum disorder), depression, stress etc. either directly or indirectly. Appropriate light and dark cycle cues have been found to positively impact our alertness, cognition, concentration, learning, memory, productivity, willpower, moods, emotions and behaviors.

This book will help you to appreciate the history of our light and dark cycle exposure, understand how our internal systems respond to light and dark cycle and empower you to design appropriate light and dark cycle cues at home, creating a healthy environment for your family.
