Recommended for anyone with Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), winter blues, or morning lethargy and lack of energy. Our wonderful biorhythm clock will restore your pizzazz and let you start the day alert and ready for anything. Ordinary alarm clocks wake you up suddenly, so you jump from deep sleep to consciousness in seconds. That leaves you needing time to "wake up" properly - and you may even start the day feeling irritable, tired and needing coffee to get going.
Glow Slow
Our Dawn Simulator Multi-function Alarm Clock works with your body's natural circadian rhythm. The gradual increase in light stimulates your body's wake-up process, so by the time you open your eyes, you're fully awake and your energy levels are already up to full alertness. It's so much nicer than all those nasty loud electronic beeps.
Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)
In as little as a few days, your body readjusts itself to nature's way, preparing for sleep at night and waking up gently in the morning. Particularly useful for anyone suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), shift workers and stay-abed teenagers, our Dawn Simulator Multi-function Alarm Clock is simply the best way for everyone to rise and shine. It's great for resetting your jetlagged body too!
Features
The scientifically calculated sunrise/sunset can be set to 15-90 minutes, and there's a backup beeper for the over anxious - though in practice most people find they wake up a few seconds before it goes off. Our Dawn Simulator Multi-function Alarm Clock also has dimmer and snooze features, a security light option, nightlight that fades to 10% illumination, power-cut backup and pretty sunray light effect, and uses a 70w sunshine neodymium bulb.
White Noise
The intelligent LCD digital display fades when you want to go to sleep, and there's a special sleepsound white noise facility that obscures background sounds and helps you to sleep through potential disturbances.

Did You Know?
Dawn simulation clocks help increase your serotonin production. Serotonin is a hormone that is lower in people suffering from depression and Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), and is a precursor for melatonin: the "sleep hormone". Scientific studies have shown that the use of dawn simulation and lightboxes can significantly improve symptoms of these health problems.
Alzheimer's Disease
People with Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia often suffer from "sundowning" - recurring confusion and increased agitation that manifests in the late afternoon and/or early evening. Dawn simulation clocks and lightboxes have been shown to reduce sundowning, and improve sleep and behaviour patterns.
