"Let there be Light"- by Ryan Leopold

A couple of weeks ago, Sequoia got me one of the best gifts ever..."A Wake-Up Light".  I know, sounds odd huh?  If you have not seen one before it is actually really cool.  It is an alarm clock that has a "wake-up" light that starts turning on 30-minutes before your alarm goes off.  It is also know as a "happy light" since it simulates light like the sun...which is nice this time of year!  I actually have it on a lot in general because it actually puts me in a better mood.

I have had a hard time getting a full nights sleep for years so getting up early for workouts is tough to say the least especially if the sun is not up yet.  And...our bedroom is really dark so hitting the old SNOOZE button is way to easy!

Here is the product explanation and model we have (Phillips Hf3470 Wake-up Light):

Wake-up Light on Amazon!


Simulates Dawn to Wake You Gradually
The official light therapy product of the National Sleep Foundation, the Wake-Up Light wakes you up by simulating sunrise. Light gradually increases for 30 minutes before your alarm time to gently prepare your body to wake up and feel more energetic at the start of your day.
Great day today...feeling much better and done with being sick!  Got yoga in this morning and will have a lifting day tomorrow.
Oatmeal for breakfast. Pho Soup again for lunch with fresh spring rolls.  Apple slices for lunch and veggies for a snack along with some mixed nuts.  Chicken and veggie yakisoba for dinner.  Orange for a desert!  
Damn you Notre Dame, horrible game!...at least I still have the Hawks to look forward to! 
Ryan...out.
