1. How the Lack of Natural
Light Impacts Part of the
Brain Called the
Hypothalamus

2. The Impact lighting has on
health
Lighting plays a huge part in your life. Daylight has
positive biological effects on people.
It plays a part in ensuring well-being throughout the
course of the day and restful sleep during the night.
If you don't have natural lighting it could impact your
mental health in various ways for example it can be a
factor in the cause of Seasonal Affective Disorder.

3. Production of Melatonin
Melatonin is a hormone that your pineal gland in the
brain secretes.
This is a hormone that makes you feel sleepy. In
people who have Seasonal Affective Disorder, the
body may produce it in higher than normal levels.
Natural light prevents the production of this hormone.

4. Production of Serotonin
Serotonin is a hormone also produced in the pineal
gland in the brain.
It affects your mood, appetite and your
sleeping patterns.
A lack of natural light may lead to lower
serotonin levels, which is linked to
feelings of depression.

(Circadian Rhythm)
Your body uses natural light to time various important
functions
This includes things such as when you wake up.
This means that lower light levels during the winter
may disrupt your body clock and lead to symptoms of
SAD(Seasonal Affective Disorder
