Chandigarh, Dec 18: Remember the soft, cozy glow of old homes and cafes? That warm yellow-orange light wasn’t just for ambiance—it was gentle on our eyes and soothing for the brain.
Warm lights reduce eye strain and flicker less, making them easier to focus under for long periods.
They also support your natural circadian rhythm, helping your body know when it’s time to wind down, which improves sleep and overall brain health.
White lights, on the other hand, became popular with the rise of fluorescent and LED lighting.
They were seen as modern, bright, and energizing, perfect for offices, schools, and commercial spaces where alertness mattered. But the harshness often led to eye fatigue, headaches, and disrupted sleep cycles.
Now, there’s a shift back to warmer tones. Interior designers, wellness experts, and even tech companies are embracing warm lights again—using lamps, smart bulbs, and LED strips that mimic the softer glow.
Whether you’re reading, working, or winding down after a long day, warmer lights aren’t just easier on your eyes—they help your brain relax, too. In a world obsessed with bright, “productive” lighting, warm lights are quietly reclaiming their place… and your body is noticing the difference.
