Morning Light Exposure

Exposure to at least 100,000 lux of light before 9:00 a.m. is crucial for setting your circadian clock and optimizing mental and physical health. Natural sunlight is the best source, as even on cloudy days, it significantly outshines artificial lights. If natural light isn't available, consider using specialized artificial lights, but remember that sunlight offers unique benefits. Prioritize capturing this light early to avoid the circadian dead zone later in the day.
