Product Description
The TwiLight Mini Ultra Blue Light Therapy Sleep System provides excellent blue light exposure that has been shown to optimize the re-calibration of the body's Circadian rhythm. Many studies have shown that the occurrence of sleep disturbance increase with age. The natural Circadian rhythm that regulates your body's sleep cycles can be thrown off by spending more time indoors as we age. Placing this compact device in your bedroom and activating its soothing blue light for 30-60 minutes prior to falling asleep will help you fall asleep faster and experience a more satisfying slumber. Young children and infants can also benefit from bathing their bedroom in the soft glow of blue light to falling asleep. The TwiLight System remains cool to the touch, so it's safe to use. The compact size and high/low illumination make it the perfect addition to any bedroom. 5,000 LUX of 460nm blue light therapy. Translucent lens delivers an optimal dose of the correct spectrum of blue light to regulate Circadian rhythm and assist in providing more restful and effective sleep patterns. |

Had to send it back by A. Boland  2 Stars
January 06, 2009
I only tried it for about four days in a row. For those same four days, I noticed a high-pitched buzzing sound in my room. When I finally figured out it was coming from the lamp while turned "off", I sent it back. I was so desperate that I was willing to pay eighty dollars for a blue light to help me sleep. I guess we'll try anything for a little relief.

Bad Idea! by Paul Abel (Fort Worth, Texas USA)  1 Stars
October 05, 2008
I strongly agree with the preceding review. All scientific research indicates that this type of light is helpful first thing in the morning, certainly not at night!!! This type of light actually signals the brain to destroy the lingering melatonin which is a hormone that makes you sleepy. Using this light at night to fall asleep would be very counterproductive! Do your own research...

Waste of a first paycheck. by K. Riley (Northern California) 1 Stars
July 09, 2008
Broke after two weeks and I couldn't return it. It didn't really do anything for me at all in the brief period during which it was functioning properly. Total waste of money.

Morning rays for the corporate cog by Cityreviews (Chicago)  4 Stars
July 04, 2008
Soft and warm pseudo-sunlight to bring sunshine to a cubed work space. Starts the day off on a nice note.
I have a pseudo-sunlight floor lamp which is ideal for reading.

Wow -- can this be true? by Crispee (Westminster, CO United States)  5 Stars
March 15, 2008
First don't listen to the reviewer that says you can only use in the morning. While you CAN use in the morning you can also use 2-3 hours before you go to bed.
I have been having trouble with insomnia for months now. So much that I was afraid i was addicted to Ambien since I needed it every night. And it didn't seem to work as well. I then tried Melatonin which worked okay the first night or two and then didn't at all. So back to the Ambien.
I bought this light from Gaiam in desperation for anything that might work. No matter how silly or stupid the claim -- yeah, so having this light on for a little while is going to actually do something.
Well, after using it for 4 nights and getting deep sleep every night I'm a believer. I have it upstairs in my office and just put it on while checking email or surfing the web. 30-60 minutes around 8-9 pm. (not right before you go to bed.)
Last night i fell asleep at 10:30 and woke up at 9 AM. I can't tell you the last time that happened!
I hope it keeps working. I'll keep the sleeping pills for emergencies but i would much rather use this light. In fact I'm buying another one for use in the morning.
