Regulating cortisol and melatonin rhythms through early morning sunlight and evening light avoidance facilitates sleep, neuroplasticity, and emotional resilience.

“Regulating your cortisol rhythm through viewing sunlight early in the day, and I should also say, avoiding bright lights from artificial sources in the evening, generally 10:00 p.m. to 4:00 a.m, but certainly in the evening, trying to dim lights in your immediate environment, trying to avoid bright screens, bright artificial lights as much as possible, and accessing that deep sleep, that's modulating, it's setting an overall autonomic state or an overall autonomic landscape, would be the better way to describe it, that's going to allow you to sleep and get neuroplasticity, sleep and be in the best emotional state to navigate the grieving process.”
