Bright Light Therapy Lamps are available to use at the Bloomfield Hub and now for borrowing at the StFX Library!
Bright Light Therapy Lamps are used to mimic sunlight levels, and sitting in front of a lamp for 15-20 minutes daily can help ease symptoms of clinically diagnosed seasonal affective disorder and improve sleep (Mayo Clinic).
