What is Light Therapy?

Many of us suffer from the lack of sun which can lead to symptoms of depression. Seasonal Affective Disorder is most often triggered by the onset of fall or winter as the daylight hours become shorter and shorter. Signs of this form of depression can include sadness, sleep difficulties, increased appetite and the craving of carbohydrate rich foods, weight gain, lack of energy, irritability, anxiety, and problems with concentration.

Hence Light therapy is used to cure Seasonal Affective disorder

Isn't it just a part of our normal life?
