So-called full-spectrum lighting, they say, reduces eye strain, headaches, glare and fatigue to make them more comfortable and efficient, especially over long periods of time.

Full-Spectrum Lighting

While there is no actual definition of ‘full spectrum’, the term is generally taken to mean it has some light of nearly every temperature in the color spectrum, much like natural sunlight but without most of the ultra-violet range.

Standard incandescent and fluorescent light, by contrast, is in a limited color temperature range (photographers use software or filters on their camera lenses to counter the yellow or orange cast that predominates, especially at low indoor light levels).

Full spectrum bulbs are available for overhead applications in ceiling installations and for more local, desktop fixtures that deliver more light to a smaller area, and while they tend to be slightly more expensive and require more electricity to produce a given amount of light, those who use then extensively say they are well worth the price.

Because of its wider color temperature range, full-spectrum light increases definition in the work area and gives a much more honest representation of color, which is critical in graphic arts and color matching for home, office, and automotive paints.

Either way, many of us start the preparations early, putting away those things that have been lying around for a while, shampooing the carpets, dusting the furniture, and cleaning the grill.

Take a few moments for yourself and relax.

What do you do?  Only a few steps away is the answer your own personal solution.  How cool is that?

Rejuvenate your skin’s complexion with the power of soothing light in your own home.  Treat your fine lines, smooth out small age wrinkles; treat mild acne with Red and Blue Light therapy.

Skin research in the last few years have proven how light affects our cell growth by the combined science of physics and biology.

Researchers discovered that red light heals damaged skin cells.  Red light encourages collagen production as well as helping skin cells repair themselves.  Blue light fights inflammation and bacteria that causes acne.

According to the American Academy of Dermatology, Light Emitting Devices, or LED, can help treat skin discoloration as well as fine wrinkling.  The way the skin is prompted to form collagen and elastin proteins is similar to the way photosynthesis works in plants.

Portable Skin Care Lamps Let You Give In-Home Treatments On Your Own Time Schedule

To treat wrinkles and fine lines in the past, required a trip to the dermatologist.  These visits cost between $80-100 and a series of treatments often costs $800.  Now you can get the same results in the privacy own home with blue light therapy under $200.

Wrinkles are fine lines or creases in the skin, mostly in the face.  These wrinkles, lines or creases are usually the result of exposure to the elements and sun, smoking, pollution and of course, the natural aging process.

Skin Rejuvenation is a treat at home with Good Changes Now.

Clutter results from not having a place for those things on the floor, desk or counters.  Buy or make a storage system and notice you will put things away and  even your children, too.  An environment that feels spacious is more relaxing.  Enjoy the new year!

We buy our pet all sorts of things we think they will need.  Our joy is boundless and we receive much from owning and the return of their unconditional love.  Our furry friends, greet us at the door after a day at work.  For those that work at a home business, having that constant companion around is comforting.

We become acclimated to the smells, whether is it a clean, musky or pet odor.  We often miss the smells until they become pronounced or someone says something.

We clean, disinfect and assume that all is well.  Ask any guest and most often they will tell you about the fur on the furniture, cat or dog odor, and say “This is bad for my allergies”.

For those that don’t know, our beloved pet’s body secret oil and a waxy substance that has an odor. Often the odor is very pronounced, along with shedding on the beds and furniture.

Pet owners know that our furry friends have accidents due to old age, getting nervous, excited or frightened by loud noises.  We come home and “BAM”, we smell the foul odor, or we find surprises in the course of regular cleaning.  We love our special friends, but our carpets, bed or floors can become permeated with the odor and the smell can be overwhelming.

Here is the “usual” way clean up the mess:

• disinfect the area
• use paper towels to absorb the excess urine
• follow by time-tested baking soda and more paper towels
• finish with a mixture of water and white vinegar with paper towels left overnight
• weigh down with something heavy to bring the urine up from the carpet and pad
• This is good but all to often the odor lingers especially if there are multiple urine episodes.

How do we remove the smell and pet odors now?

Loved ones come to visit, or we go to visit them.  We catch up with friends and family, entertain guests, go to parties, and then comes added stress, the threat of colds and flu surrounding us in our environment.

How do we protect those we love?

Now is the time to start getting organized earlier than usual this year. Small amounts of time devoted to getting one area cleared of clutter will make you feel better, and seeing the cumulative results will keep you moving forward. We may not have a half-hour or an hour, but we do have 15 minutes here and there to accomplish some organizing.

Add these up during a week and you’ll find you have done an hour or two of work without stressing over finding the time. This is how I can get many things done each week.  Let the kids and hubby help during the commercial breaks.  Two to four people picking up here and there can make quick work of it, after all, YOU don’t have to do everything!

Have a Plan

What is bothering you most about getting ready for the Holidays? Is it the same thing each year? Make this the year to cross that off your list first.

Begin there, and each subsequent accomplishment will allow you to enjoy family and friends when they arrive.

4 Ways to Overcome Holiday Stress

• 15 minutes a day organizing your kitchen and guest areas will pay great benefits.  Clear out clutter from kitchen and living areas as soon as possible.  Creating space and openness helps to minimize stress.
• Use the scents of cinnamon and vanilla to lower body stress while you work.
• Collect ideas for a new theme this year.  Arrange the table or house differently.  Imagine you are visiting a place to spend the holiday.  Create that place in your own home.
• If appropriate, add a glass of wine or a cup of tea to your mix after the 15 minutes of work.  Enjoy your life’s moment — there is no need to rush through it.

I like my guests and family to feel special so I make each guest a basket filled with travel soap and shampoos, special treats, the latest bestsellers local bookstore or a used book store, a candle of a favorite scent, or a CD player with a selection of holiday tunes.

You can include funny card to welcome them. A little preparation will allow you to enjoy this time of year, rather than rushing around and finding the season passed and you missed it.

Take time, relax and enjoy those special people you are cleaning and preparing for.

This is why it is effective against odors.

Knowing your home is cleaner and healthier.  Oh!  How smart you are. Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to help those we love as well as yourself with a gentle cleaning method?

“Using the sanitizing wand is my way to taking charge of my health. In my job I can’t wash my hands after working at the counter.  My stress is lowered knowing that I have an immediate way to kill germs, bacteria and flu viruses. It gives me  peace of mind.” Tonja H., of Seattle, an Ovarian Cancer Survivor
