Verilux Rise & Shine - Light is the natural way to wake

The Verilux Rise & Shine Natural Alarm Clock (dawn simulator) simulates the sunrise. Its patented timer gradually brightens its full spectrum light and helps to “switch off” the production of melatonin, allowing you to wake gently, naturally and refreshed. Our customers tell us that waking this way brightens their mood for the rest of the day.

Wake to songbirds and sunrise

No wonder this lamp is patented! There's nothing like it and it's so easy to use! Just program the built-in alarm clock with your preferred wake-up time. In the morning, the Rise & Shine lamp slowly brightens and the built-in speaker gently increases its volume until you're fully awake. At night, the process reverses — dimming light and fading sounds gently tell your brain it's time to sleep.

A 1993 research study on dawn simulators conducted by the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, University of Washington School of Medicine, concluded: "This study indicates that dawn simulation is an effective treatment for winter depression."
