Wake up naturally with Dawn Simulators
Our body clocks are affected by how bright or dark our environment is. During the hours of darkness our brain produces sleep hormone melatonin, which helps us to sleep. This melatonin production will stop when we are exposed to light.
In winter times, when the dark hours are long, we would have to wake up in the morning when the sun has not risen. At these moments of darkness our brains are still producing melatonin and as such, our waking suddenly makes us feel drowsy at the time of waking and tired the rest of the day.
One possible solution to solve this problem could be the use of a dawn simulator. This device, called a natural alarm clock helps to reduce this sudden awakening by simulating sunrise. A light source simulating an artificial sunrise by gradually increasing in intensity at a given time, usually around 30 to 60 minutes before your scheduled wake time.
This artificial sunrise prepares your body to wake up in a more natural way to slow down melatonin production from your brain.
What are the advantages of Dawn Simulators?
Dawn simulators can be used to treat people with seasonal affective disorders (SAD). SAD patients suffer from a chemical imbalance in the brain due to shortening of daylight hours on winter. This imbalance inhibits normal functioning and causes depression during the winter months.
Dawn simulators are useful for people trying to wake up over the winter mornings when it is still dark outside. Indeed, it is useful for those who typically wakes up before sunrise. You do not have to live in a country with seasonal changes in order to enjoy the benefits of a dawn simulator. As dawn simulators to help adapt and regulate melatonin and serotonin production, it is also useful for sufferers of depression, anxiety, fatigue and insomnia, as these patients have been known to have imbalances of these two chemicals. Dawn simulators are also very helpful for shift workers, children and those who travel across time zones. Many dawn simulators come with a built-in clock and some have also pre-recorded nature sounds so you can be gently woken up to the soothing sounds of the rainforest or waterfall, instead of a deafening alarm bell.
