This is grounded in the core of our physiology. There are literally hundreds if not thousands of quality peer-reviewed papers showing that light viewing early in the day is the most powerful stimulus for wakefulness throughout the day and it has a powerful positive impact on your ability to fall and stay asleep at night.&#8221;<\/p><p>Huberman calls it a &#8220;power tool&#8221; for getting a great night&#8217;s sleep and lists it as one of the six pillars people should invest in every day\u2014morning sunlight, daily movement, quality nutrition, stress control, healthy relationships and deep sleep.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Take care of yourself and take care of others.
