There are 2 tricks to avoiding the burn. And they are pretty simple. And neither of them have to do with wearing sunscreens.

The first is to build up your solar callous. This is done early in spring by going outside for 10 to 20 minutes a day. Your skin will start getting used the the amount of sun and become thicker. Use the app D-minder and it will tell you down to the exact minute to be safe while doing this.

The second is to use red and near infrared light to precondition the skin allowing you to absorb more mid day UV. You can do this by exposing as much skin as possible to the sunrise or by using one of our light devices. The clear winner between the two is the sunrise but if you can’t do that the next best way is our lights.

And lastly, if you do receive more UV than you would have liked, you can use the sunset or our lights as a way to reduce the inflammation and start the healing process.

Take away: red and near infrared light will allow you to absorb more UV and keep you happy and healthy without the need of any toxic sunscreens that block most of the benefits that the sun will provide. ☀️

It is well know that sun bathing is one the best ways to maintain a healthy body and mind. Through the absorption of UVB our body converts cholesterol to vitamin d. Some of the benefits are proper blood circulation, immune system maintenance, increases calcium absorption and strengthens bone. Just to name a few.

However here are a couple other little known facts about the vitamin d:

• Vitamin d is a hormone and not a vitamin

• Vitamin d is made through the skin from the absorption of UVB.Best time of day to make vitamin d is at solar noon.

• Due to air pollution and smog issues it is harder to make vitamin d in large cities.

• Vitamin d is fat soluble needing fat / cholesterol for absorption.

• Age will decrease your skin’s ability to make vitamin D3 from sunlight and cholesterol.

• Seafood is one of the few foods high in Vitamin D levels.

• Humans have a Vitamin D savings bank in our body that can store the hormone for up to 2 month.

• A pill is not the same as getting it from the sun because it needs to be sulfated.

• Sunscreens may block up to 98% of UVB and UVA and prevent you from making vitamin d.

• Vitamin d is a natural antibiotic.

So get outside and soak up some sunshine. If you are wondering how much sun expose is safe for you where you live, I recommend the app D-Minder. It uses your location and altitude to tell you when you have been in the sun too long and sick getting solar erythema (aka sunburn).

The first thing you should do in the morning… And it’s an easy one!☀️

One of the simplest hacks that has the biggest effect on your health each and every morning is to avoid artificial light and let the sun be the first light you see everyday. And it only takes 1-3 minutes for it to be effective.

Most people do not follow this rule and they look immediately at their phone or computer. The screen on your phone is 5500 kelvin which sends a signal to your brain and body that it’s noon. You can imagine how this could confuse your body.

You will notice two things right away from doing this. One, you will be wide awake in a matter of minutes. Two, you will be in a better mood.

Our artificial lights and screens confuse our body at an important time of day when we start making and releasing hormones that last the whole day.

Try this hack and you WILL notice a big difference in your day! Get up, get out! ☀️❤️

Your body is almost 70 percent water. You have water in every single cell of your body and more and more research suggests that the type of water you take in has a profound impact on your health and performance.
Regular water is H20, but when structured water is formed, it turns into H3O2. This process separates the charge of the water similar to a battery. This charged water delivers power to your mitochondria so your cells have more energy to carry out their specific function properly. It also fights aging and stress and helps your body recover faster.

Structured water, also known as hexagonal water, living water or exclusion zone (EZ) water, has many biological roles that are important to life. From the way your blood moves through your body to how you repair your damaged cells.

Structured water forms on any hydrophilic (water loving) surface when it is exposed to light.  The visible light spectrum and ultraviolet light will create structured water, but infrared light is the most powerful and the most effective at this.

So use your red light on your water before drinking it or use your red light on your body and convert regular water to super charged EZ water for optimal health and performance.

Want to learn more about EZ water, read Dr. Gerald Pollack’s book 4th Phase of Water.

A customer came to us after having a poison ivy rash for over 30 days. She had even received a steroid shot from her doctor that was unsuccessful. After only using our light for 4 minutes a day her rash cleared up and disappeared within 6 days.

Through the power of the sun, red light therapy is a safe and non-pharmaceutical treatment for many skin inflammations and irritations that can be performed in the privacy of your own home or on the road as you travel.

Leaves of three, no worries…
