App Store Description

Blue Light Therapy App uses natural processes within your brain to help with waking up. With just 2-4 minutes in the morning you will find yourself being able to get out of bed and start doing, rather than endlessly snoozing or swiping through social media.

The app wakes up your brain by stimulating suprachiasmatic nucleus, a brain region is activated by blue light and responsible for sleep to wake transition. Additional imagery triggers survival related neural networks, telling them you are safe and in a good place to be. We instinctively recognize these surivial cues:

Broad leaves tell your brain that water is plentiful in the environment
Images of rivers and hills indicate water and a way to see predators from far away
Colorful food is rich in nutrients
Friendly, healthy animals mean satiety and safety
Plants and flowers - summer, fertile season

Quick and easy - consider using this brain stimulation app when you need more energy and coffee is not available or is not fast enough!

EFFECTS

+ Easier to GET OUT OF BED
+ Restores ALERTNESS
+ Feel yourself SMILING
+ Improves MOTIVATION in office environments

These are the effects of your brain rewarding you with happiness for thinking it is in a good environment, which is beneficial to your health and safety.
