Chasing the Sunrise: Circadian Health Stories

Inside this volume

Fifty first-person accounts describe circadian health and morning light. Writers describe losing the thread — shift work, a newborn, screens, a house with no daylight, jet lag that never resolved, grief, depression, blindness and non-24-hour sleep-wake disorder — and the moment they started treating light as something with a dose and a timing. There is going outside: the ten minutes at dawn, the light box in a northern winter, the walk before coffee, and the honest difficulty of doing it in January. Then the boring middle, where the effect is cumulative and invisible. Writers report what actually changed — sleep onset, mood, energy timing, appetite — and cover people working directly against the clock. Later chapters hold sleep researchers' and clinicians' perspectives on evidence and hype, blue-light claims, melatonin timing, and the cases where light did not help.

Who it's for

For anyone whose sleep timing has drifted, shift workers and frequent travellers, people with seasonal low mood, and readers who want the evidence sorted from the hype.
