What Is Circadian Lighting?

Also called tunable or human-centric lighting, circadian lighting is all about adapting your home’s lighting fixtures to benefit you and your day. To understand circadian lighting from Lutron’s Ketra, you have to realize how it relates to your circadian rhythm.

When you spend most of your day indoors – and after this past year, that has nearly become a norm for most people – you’ll end up seeing less and less of the sun. Lack of natural sunlight can throw off your circadian rhythm, leaving you feeling unmotivated and lethargic during your most productive work hours.

Ketra’s circadian lighting mimics the sun’s pattern in the sky and brings it into your home. You’ll experience warm tones and hues in the morning when you wake up and bluer white lighting during the middle of the day. Then, the light transforms into a warm, candlelight glow once again as the evening rolls around. You’ll see the “sunrise” and “sunset” inside your home’s four walls – tricking your mind and body into keeping your circadian rhythm on track.

How Can It Benefit You?

So, what does this all mean for your health? Circadian lighting doesn’t just affect your physical health – your mental health benefits from human-centric lighting as well. When you wake up in the morning and settle down at the end of the day to warm, comforting lighting, you’ll enter a cycle that has you going to bed easier and waking up rested. The bluer lighting during the day’s productive hours will help energize and motivate you, getting your best work at the most optimal time of day!

You’ll spend your actual day getting stuff done and feel good once the day is over – leading to a good night’s rest every night. You’ll notice that both your body and mind are ready to face the day, always. A circadian lighting system will result in overall improved home wellness and vastly enhance your everyday lifestyle.
