Some researchers say "full-spectrum" lighting is effective in treating seasonal depression, acne, psoriasis and sleep problems. Others claim the positive effects are just psychosomatic, which is fine by us. (What's the difference between feeling better and thinking you feel better? Not much.) The Verilux® Rise & Shine® Natural Alarm Clock might be just the thing to rid you of the winter blues. With a timer, the light rises slowly, simulating the natural rhythms of the dawn. The alarm can be set to use an AM/FM radio or built-in sounds of nature, like chirping birds, so you'll feel like you are waking up in the wilds.
