Katherine teaches Hatha Yoga in the Sivananda tradition and her classes are for all levels and abilities. Especially on dark days and when little natural daylight and sunlight is available to our bodies, this inner balance quickly starts to wobble, and our general well-being is adversely affected.

I am a person who stays indoors, rarely going outside and with pandemic and consequently working from home for over a year I have been sun deficient and this affected me in a number of ways. The cable length is not very generous, only 5ft, so I can only use it to some areas of the house where an outlet is near.

To compensate for such a hormonal imbalance, the daylight therapy lamp can create a suitable replacement for natural sunlight.

While its surface is smaller than an average tablet, ensuring it fits into any bag or even a larger pocket, it provides light intensity of approximately 10 000 lux to compensate for the effects of a lack of light. It uses energy saving LED technology and is also UV free, so it doesn’t cause any harm to your skin and eyes from the damaging effects of UV rays. My first SAD light, and too early to tell if I consider there is a genuine benefit (hence four stars and not five). With Beurer's SAD Therapy light I find myself with another option to keep my mood steady and reduce the impact of shorter days.
