Banish Blue Monday with a LED

Let’s be honest. January is not the happiest month of the year.

Schools reopen, you’re back to your desk, presents are unwrapped, no tree, no mince pies and then there’s that little detox thing called Dry January.

If January is not the most most pleasant month ever, the third Monday of January is a whole new level of pure evil or so it would seem according to several publications and the lovely people of Twitter.

Labelled by the media as Blue Monday or #bluemonday, this gloomy day has distinguished itself for being the most depressing day of the year.

Nothing we can do about it of course. It’s just a matter of going to work and take it easy for the day as there seem to be no way anyone or anything can improve Blue Monday.

What if there was a way though; an easy solution that could make our working day better, one simple but effective trick…

Something like a light at the end of the tunnel... a LED light.

Research shows that LED lightings can improve working conditions in the office including productivity and general wellbeing.

Several studies, including “Effects of Four Workplace Lighting Technologies on Perception, Cognition and Affective State” (available from International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics), state that LED lights contribute to boost positive mood, ‘extended wakefulness’ and ‘speeded performance’. The research also confirms that LED can reduce fatigue, increase activity and, guess what, lower rates of depression.

Led lights are an invaluable ally against January, blue mondays and any general lack of energy.

So what are you waiting for? Stop fearing Blue Monday today, get yourself a LED light and have a great January from us all at The LED store.co where we love Januarys.
