In the northern part of Finland (and Sweden and Norway) the sun doesn't rise for two months.

@tanjaostman do you have anything to deal with the lack of sunlight on your skin?

@Berrybunchfamily I really hate the long, dark period. It's cozy for a few weeks, but 4-6 months with too little sunlight is too much for me. The lack of light affects the brain chemistry that regulate mood, alertness and energy levels. It would be fine if we could just hibernate, but I need to go to work. I have a lamp on the kitchen table that we call light therapy in Swedish. The lack of vit D we supplement with fish oil or vit D. Many travel south for a week or two during winter. We use to do it when we have enouugh money and time. For obvious reasons we haven't traveled further than to Sweden since Jan 2020 when we were in southeast Asia.

@tanjaostman over here it is called SAD (Seasonal Adjustment Disorder).

Back when we had our eco shop, we sold the same thing you mentioned - it emitted a natural daylight, rather than then yellow light you tend to get from light bulbs

They seemed brighter, yet really weren't - just a better frequency of light

We sold them as they were cheaper to run than normal bulbs
