Unlocking the Power of Circadian Rhythm Lighting: How it Impacts Your Body and Improves Wellbeing

Imagine you're a hardworking office warrior with a busy schedule. You spend long hours sitting at your desk, typing on your computer, and attending meetings. By the end of the workday, you're exhausted but still can't seem to unwind and fall asleep. You try relaxing activities like reading or a warm bath, but nothing works. What if we told you that the lighting in your workspace could be the reason behind your sleeplessness?

 

Our bodies have a natural 24 hour internal clock known as the circadian rhythm which controls our sleep and wake cycles. This rhythm is influenced by light, where circadian lighting comes into play. Circadian lighting is designed to have a biological impact on our circadian system, helping to minimize the effects of electric light on our natural rhythms.

Understanding Circadian Lighting: Supporting the Natural Sleep-Wake Cycle

 

Circadian lighting is a technology designed to support your body's natural internal clock by minimizing the negative impact of artificial light on your circadian rhythm. It achieves this through systems and features like intensity tuning, color tuning, and correlated color temperature (CCT), which help match the lighting in your environment to your body's natural signals.

The Building Blocks of Circadian Lighting: Intensity and Color Tuning

 

Ready to let your inner light shine? Let's talk about the importance of intensity tuning in circadian lighting. Intensity tuning, the first component of circadian lighting, is like a personal sunrise and sunset, designed to match your body's natural rhythms. It starts with color-tuned lights set at a lower intensity in the early morning, gradually increasing throughout the day, and reducing to lower power in the evening, just like the sun's natural path.

 

Personal Sunrise and Sunset: the Importance of Intensity Tuning

 

But it's not just about nice lighting. By providing brighter days and darker nights, intensity tuning helps us wake up quicker and more energetic and sleep deeper and sounder. It reinforces the natural light and dark signals our eyes and brain would receive from the sun if we spent more time outside. So, you can be sure that even indoors, your body is in tune with nature.

Mimicking Day and Night: the Role of Color Tuning

 

And let's remember color tuning, another critical component of circadian lighting. It involves adjusting light intensity and correlated color temperature (CCT) to mimic daytime and nighttime colors. During the day, cooler CCT promotes attention and alertness, while warmer CCT is cast during sunrise and sunset. The color temperature reflects our body's natural cycles, making maintaining a healthy circadian rhythm easier.

Shedding Light on CCT: Matching Lighting to Your Body's Natural Signals

 

Now, you might be wondering what correlated color temperature is. It's the color wavelength of the light a bulb or other light source emits, measured in Kelvin and ranging between 1000K and 10000K. The lower the temperature, the warmer the light, while the higher the temperature, the cooler the light. Cool color temperatures ranging from 4000K to 10000K mimic blue-sky broad daylight, while warm and dimmed lights can make you feel more relaxed. And anything between 2700K to 3500K is on par with early morning and early evening.

 

So, there you have it. Let your inner light shine with circadian lighting. Intensity and color tuning are like a dynamic duo, working together to create a lighting environment that supports your body's natural rhythms.

Maintaining a Healthy Circadian Rhythm and Keeping Your Circadian Rhythm in Check

 

While circadian lighting is an essential tool for maintaining a healthy sleep routine, there are other habits you can adopt to ensure that you're getting the most out of your rest. Here are a few tips:

  

  • Keep a consistent sleep schedule, even on weekends. This helps train your body to know when to sleep and wake up.
  • Develop a relaxing bedtime routine to help signal to your body that it's time to wind down.
  • Reduce your exposure to blue light at night, as it can disrupt your sleep cycle. Put down your electronic devices at least an hour before bed.
  • Exercise regularly, but avoid exercising too close to bedtime.
  • Manage stress through techniques like meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises.

  

Circadian lighting is important for you to sleep well.

Final Thoughts

 

In conclusion, the quality of our sleep is greatly affected by the lighting in our environment, and circadian lighting is designed to support our body's natural internal clock by minimizing the negative impact of artificial light on our circadian rhythms. Circadian lighting achieves this through systems and features like intensity tuning, color tuning, and correlated color temperature (CCT), which help to match the lighting in our environment to our body's natural signals. By adopting healthy sleep habits and incorporating circadian lighting into our daily routine, we can get the most out of our rest and maintain a healthy circadian rhythm.

What Lights Are Best for a Good Circadian Rhythm? Let Your Inner Light Shine with the BenQ e-Reading Desk Lamp

  

BenQ e-Reading Desk Lamp is the best choice when it comes to building circadian lighting.
 

You already know that lighting plays a crucial role in your focus, learning performance, visual comfort, relaxation, and overall wellbeing. That's why the BenQ e-Reading Desk Lamp is the perfect solution to help you achieve your desired lighting environment and optimize your circadian rhythm.

 

With the ability to adjust color temperature from 2700K to 6500K and features like intensity tuning, color tuning, and correlated color temperature (CCT), the BenQ e-Reading Desk Lamp allows you to customize your lighting to match your body's natural signals.

 

Based on scientific research, different color temperatures are effective in different situations. Need to focus on a big exam? High color temperature (5000K and above) is perfect for reading, writing, and exam preparation.

 

Spending long hours in front of a computer screen? Medium color temperature (around 4000K) reduces visual fatigue and is comfortable for screen reading. Looking to relax and get creative? Low color temperature (below 3000K) is perfect for that.
