A long time ago, in a body far, far more balanced…

There was no blue light after sunset.

Only candlelight. Fire. Moon glow.

Now? You’re under synthetic LEDs pulsing at 5000K color temp, 800+ lux indoors.

Your brain thinks it’s midday.

Your melatonin? Blocked.

Your circadian clock? Fried.

Full-spectrum sunlight hits ~10,000–100,000 lux by day (that’s good).

Candlelight? Under 10 lux—nature-approved for nighttime.

Same with red light bulbs or low-lux incandescents.

Want deeper sleep, better recovery, real hormonal balance?

Kill the overheads.

Dim it down. Light a candle.

Become the light Jedi again. May the Fourth Be with You.
