I’ve been a sunrise alarm clock devotee for years, however, I’ve never used a proper SAD lamp. In fact, I’ve always been a little sceptical as to whether a lamp could really make a difference to your mood and energy levels. However, after trialling one of Lumie’s new SAD lamps for almost two months I’ve been seriously impressed by the impact it's had on my energy and productivity.
In September, Lumie launched its portable Lumie Dash lamp. The therapy lamp is designed to move easily around the home and simulate the brightness and intensity of natural daylight, providing 10,000 lux from 15cm away. I was kindly sent one by Lumie to try when working from home, and I found that the light helped improve my productivity and mood.
