Bright Light Therapy

Bright Light Therapy involves exposure to a high-intensity, artificial light that mimics natural sunlight. It is commonly used to treat conditions like Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), depression, and certain sleep disorders. The therapy typically involves sitting near a light box for about 20-30 minutes daily, usually in the morning, to help regulate the body's internal clock and improve mood and energy levels. The light influences brain chemicals linked to mood and sleep, promoting better overall well-being. It is a safe, non-invasive treatment often recommended under medical guidance.
