Introduction
Lumie Bodyclock Active wakes you with a sunrise that naturally helps to
regulate your sleep and wake patterns. You’ll wake up in a better mood, find it
easier to get up, and feel more energetic during the day. There’s also a fading
sunset to help you unwind at the end of the day and drift off to sleep.
Ideally, you should use Bodyclock Active all year round to help keep your sleep
and wake cycles on track.
In clinical trials, ‘dawn simulators’ such as Bodyclock Active have been
shown to improve mood, energy, productivity and the quality of sleep and
awakening†. They can also help winter blues sufferers cope with dark winter
mornings.
Lumie was the first to launch a dawn simulator range and began selling an
early version of Bodyclock in 1993.
Please read these instructions carefully to get the most out of your Bodyclock
Active.
