#141 - Light Therapy Revisited: Put on the Red Light
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
It has been a while since we have focused our attention on light therapy and sleep. For this Insomnia Monday, I thought a revisiting of light therapy might be in order. In this episode we will:
- Touch on new research that serves to minimize the role that blue light plays in terms of sleep harm
- Look at other colors of light and how that might affect sleep and health
- Evaluate research looking at light therapy and insomnia
- Expand our thinking about insomnia into a place that includes circadian disorders and causes/contributors
