The effect of light on our well-being

Kategorie

Research shows that people need adequate doses of light, which they receive at different times of the day. Access to light will mean feeling better, maintaining eye health and better sleep quality. Even in autumn or winter, it is worth taking walks and choosing large windows for your home or office.

The therapeutic effect of daylight

An adequate amount of natural light is required for the brain to function properly. Access to daylight is especially important in the autumn and winter. Light will help us feel better and fight depression and feeling unwell. Opening up the windows in your house can significantly improve your mood and even motivate you to do something. Daylight helps us to produce vitamin D, which has a significant impact on the proper functioning of the entire body.

Light and healthy eyes

Many scientists emphasise the beneficial effect of daylight on eyesight. Exposure to natural light protects eyesight from the development of myopia. When planning to purchase artificial lighting, it is best to choose light bulbs whose colour, power and temperature are similar to natural light. Halogen light is particularly harmful and causes significant eye strain. Good lighting at home or at work will help keep your eyes healthy. It is best to install large windows that provide access to daylight for most of the day.

Light and maintaining a healthy weight

During the research, it was noticed that exposure to light is one of the ways to maintain a healthy body weight. People exposed to daylight in the morning were slimmer. The later the daylight arrived, the higher the BMI. Scientists say this may be related to the internal clock and its disturbances.

The effect of light on depression

In autumn and winter, many people suffer from seasonal depression. Therapists also notice a higher number of patients seeking help. Well-being is influenced by access to daylight, which is much less abundant in the autumn and winter period. Symptoms of light deficiency include drowsiness, fatigue, irritability, psychological discomfort and an increasingly bad mood. Despite the bad weather, it is worth taking advantage of daylight for as long as possible. A good solution would be, for example, to take a morning walk to work. Every person reacts differently to changes in the weather, so it is worth observing your body.

Large windows

Access to daylight is very important not only at home but also in the office. Employees will notice an improvement in their concentration and an increase in their willingness to act. The working day will therefore be more effective. Daylight also has a positive effect on physical activity and better sleep at night. Installing large, modern windows not only provides access to daylight, but also saves electricity. High-quality windows also ensure airtightness, which means no smog in the rooms. As you can see, it is worth investing in high-quality windows, which bring many benefits.
