Circadian Lighting

The concept of circadian lighting follows that of the human circadian rhythm, a 24-hour internal clock Circadian lighting sends signals to the master clock in the brain, telling our bodies when it is daytime and when it is night. A healthy circadian rhythm is associated with improved long-term health and helps promote better sleep at night, allowing our brains to repair our bodies as well as our minds.
