In this week's episode of the Less Stressed Life podcast, I talk to one of my favorite people, Jena S. Griffith, about the science behind morning light and its effect on our overall health especially in terms of sleep and eye health.

Here are some of the key takeaways:

  • [08:11] What morning light provides and what we're missing?
  • [15:40] Significance of melatonin production
  • [22:20] Full spectrum light composition and its specific effects on overall health
  • [34:12] Mechanism of how melatonin degraded by blue light
Mentioned in this episode:

Jena received her Bachelor of Science and completed her dietetic internship with a nutrition education concentration at the University of Northern Colorado. Before that, she earned certifications from the Institute of the Psychology of Eating and the Institute of Integrative Nutrition that enabled her to practice as an Integrative Health Coach. Jena has maintained a private nutrition practice and serves as the lead nutrition instructor for Albemarle county’s community education program. Currently, she is the director for Culpeper Wellness Foundation, and Powell Wellness Center, the top-ranking medical wellness in Virginia, USA.

For more than 15 years, Jena has immersed herself in research and education in the fields of health, wellness, nutrition, and fitness. Her mission is to compassionately support, educate and inspire people to lead energetic, healthy, and joyful lives.
