Light Alarms

Light Alarms

Light alarms can significantly make getting up easier. The crucial factor in whether they are suitable for you in the long run is your own sensitivity to light.

Waking Up with Light

Some people prefer to sleep in almost complete darkness and wake up with slight changes in brightness. Others are far less sensitive and are not easily awakened by a small light source alone. A higher sensitivity makes a light alarm clock more effective.

It is important to know that most light alarm clocks are not therapeutic devices. They are not intended to change your circadian rhythm but are usually just another form of alarm clock meant to wake you up. In combination with our recommendations for the morning routine, this can really help enhance your morning experience.
