Enhance Your Mood and Environment with Advanced LED Illumination

With the end of daylight saving time and the diminishing daylight as winter closes in, many people across the country feel slightly melancholy. They miss the long summer days when we took the warmth and sunlight for granted. 

In the Bay Area, we lose as much as 5-6 hours of sunlight as the summer wanes and the winter unfolds. On the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year, we receive only 9.5 hours of light. 

So, what happens to the human body when it experiences shorter daylight hours? This change in light can disrupt the circadian rhythm, the internal time clock controlled predominantly by natural light. When the sun rises, it initiates the production of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that increases energy and joy. When it sets, the darkness reminds the body it’s time to produce melatonin, the hormone associated with sleep.

Despite the changing patterns, there are ways to combat the drab feelings associated with diminishing sunlight. Here, we’ll explore one of the most intriguing approaches to brightening spaces and moods—today’s advanced lighting control systems.
