Do you love that wonderful warm happy feeling you get when you are outside on a sunny spring day? Sunny days lift energy levels and improve moods. Would you like to bring the benefits of natural daylight indoors? Revolutionary full spectrum light bulbs produce "natural" light by filtering out excessive yellow light. You must try them to believe it! Here are some usefull tips and techniques to help "lighten" up your home.

Bathroom: Replace your "Hollywood" bath strip light bulbs with some full spectrum globe bulbs for a rosy glow.

Kitchen: Put 75-watt full-spectrum flood bulbs in your recessed lights. Replace the bulbs in fluorescent ceiling fixtures with full spectrum tubes. Then you can put in a "painted sky" lens to give the effect of a real skylight.

Office: Use full-spectrum non-glare bulbs in your desk lamps and overhead fluorescent fixtures.

Family Room: Use plant uplights, real candle, and natural firelight for maximum impact on cold winter nights.

Bedroom: Replace your bedside table light bulbs with 3-way full-spectrum bulbs.

Use mirrors and crystals to reflect light and create a rainbow effect on your walls. Open your draperies during the day or take a walk to get one hour of sunlight exposure per day.
