Is this different/better/worse than the sungazer field?
There are none worse fields than others here.
Its different.
Oh okay, I may get this one at some point.
And to clarify by worse I meant less effective at producing light. Because who knows when this may be need to be in use for a long amount of time, I am trying to figure out which field is better in achieving a dose of sunlight if someone hasnāt been outside.
Thank you
Both but this one (full spectrum light) is stronger,
sungazing one also recreates the sungazing ātechniqueā without the dangers of doing it wrong, which focuses on two main things, one being a source of energy like the one food would provide, and two on enhancing the functions of the pineal gland.
Would you recommend getting this to combat mouldy situation during winter time?
Try the environmental far UV-C field for mould.
And donāt stay in rooms that are affected by mould. This is toxic for your health.
Also mould must be solved at its core, that means making sure your rooms have always the right level of humidity so that no new mould can happen.
If this is not possible then one needs to move.
Thanks @JAAJ I will try out UV-C field. The place Im renting is having signs of mould as winter has started, we are dealing with mould in the bathroom using bleach, but I donāt have much hope in the landlord fixing the carpets
Thanks for bumping it guys, my current place is lacking so much sunlight (exposed North ) and I have been using an old luminotherapy lamp I had.
This field is so much better, I feel like a plant coming back to life
I donāt know if this has been stated yet, but since they do their best to control the type of light we receive from the sun, this may work for receiving the bands of light needed to activate higher thought. Just speculation, canāt say for sure right now.
ChatGPT on Full Spectrum Light: Full-spectrum light is a type of lighting that closely mimics the natural sunlight spectrum, providing a wide range of wavelengths that are essential for the growth and well-being of plants and animals, including humans. Full-spectrum light contains all the colors of the visible light spectrum, from red to violet, as well as invisible wavelengths such as infrared and ultraviolet light.
Full-spectrum light is often used in indoor growing environments, where natural light is limited or unavailable, to provide the necessary light spectrum for plants to grow and thrive. It is also used in light therapy for treating seasonal affective disorder (SAD), a type of depression that occurs in the fall and winter months due to reduced exposure to sunlight.
In addition to promoting plant growth and improving mood and well-being in humans, full-spectrum light has been shown to have other benefits as well. For example, it may improve sleep quality and energy levels, boost the immune system, and even improve cognitive function.
While some products marketed as āfull-spectrumā may not actually provide a full range of wavelengths, high-quality full-spectrum lighting can be beneficial for a variety of applications, including indoor gardening, lighting for workplaces and homes, and light therapy for mood disorders.
In addition to the benefits mentioned earlier, some studies suggest that exposure to full-spectrum light may also have positive effects on mood, energy levels, and sleep quality. For example, research has shown that exposure to bright, full-spectrum light can help to alleviate symptoms of seasonal affective disorder (SAD) and improve overall mood and energy levels.
Furthermore, full-spectrum light exposure during the day may help to regulate the bodyās natural circadian rhythm, which can improve sleep quality and lead to better overall health. It is believed that exposure to natural sunlight during the day can help to reset the bodyās internal clock and promote more restful sleep at night.
Overall, the benefits of full-spectrum light seem to stem from its ability to closely mimic natural sunlight and provide a wider range of wavelengths than traditional artificial lighting. However, more research is needed to fully understand the extent of these benefits and how they can be effectively incorporated into daily life.
Full-spectrum light has several potential benefits, including:
- Improved mood and mental health: Exposure to full-spectrum light has been shown to help regulate circadian rhythms, which can improve mood and help alleviate symptoms of seasonal affective disorder (SAD) and other mood disorders.
- Enhanced vision: Full-spectrum light can improve color perception, contrast, and visual acuity, making it easier to see details and reducing eye strain.
- Improved sleep quality: Exposure to full-spectrum light during the day can help regulate the bodyās natural sleep-wake cycle, leading to better sleep quality and improved daytime alertness.
- Reduced symptoms of depression: Studies have shown that full-spectrum light can help reduce symptoms of depression, particularly in people with SAD.
- Reduced symptoms of seasonal affective disorder (SAD): Full-spectrum light therapy has been shown to be an effective treatment for SAD, a type of depression that occurs during the winter months due to reduced exposure to natural sunlight.
- Improved immune function: Exposure to full-spectrum light has been shown to boost the immune system, potentially helping to reduce the risk of illness and infection.
- Pain relief: Some studies suggest that exposure to full-spectrum light may help reduce chronic pain, although more research is needed to confirm this benefit.
- Increased productivity: Exposure to full-spectrum light can improve focus, concentration, and productivity, particularly in work environments with little natural light.
- Increased vitamin D synthesis: Exposure to full-spectrum light can stimulate vitamin D synthesis in the skin, which is essential for maintaining bone health and a strong immune system.
- Improved skin health: Full-spectrum light exposure can help improve the appearance and health of skin by promoting collagen production and reducing inflammation.
It is important to note that more research is needed to fully understand the potential benefits of full-spectrum light, and that individual results may vary depending on factors such as age, health status, and duration of exposure.

Hellou Mr/Ms ChatGPT (you should change your name for that already ) thanks again, youve become a pointer for me, reminding me of fields long forgotten and that hit the spot right when i in fact need them. Thank you again for doing this, im actually learning a lot following your trail haha
Haha . No thanks. Iām keeping my nickname . In any case, it can give some guidance to the people looking for something in particular. Always happy to help out others.
and Photosynthesis
Read all the comments and did some reading online
Purchased this because Iām looking for home cleansing, keeping the energy fresh, overall cleanliness, good vibes etc
This seems to fit the bill for all
Iām honestly hoping it takes the place of having to buy an air purifier. We have 4 kids and 4 animals, this place gets funky even with me cleaning all day
I also saw uvc is part of it, so I plan on playing for long periods in bathrooms and laundry room for any type of unknown mold
@Vincit am i on the right track in my thinking?
Update: Iām 20 minutes in and feel SO relaxed. The fresh feeling like you were at the beach. It feels like the type of field that you could play liberally. Not something I normally do with fields. Some fields I feel ātakeā before they can give full benefits (in terms of my personal energy) but this one doesnāt feel that way to me. I know thatās probably not a common feeling among many, but my best way of describing.
@AlreadyThere : I think so . I donāt own the field. Maybe interesting to reach out to people that own the field. I normally make a summary when there are enough reviews.
We got a new to us kitchen table, and I think the house it came from may have been smokers. Iām thinking putting full spectrum light on loop on the table for a few hours.
All I know is as soon as this table got in our house I want to sneeze and I feel like the air is dirty.
What else do you have to look out for in wood? I feel something is amiss.
Any long term benefits from this? I think I have SAD, when it gets cloudy I get very moody and sad. Anyone seen improvement in such a condition with this?
I use Sun Gazer daily but donāt see much improvement in my condition.
Iāve slept with this one on, waking up feeling energized with light around me, hard to explain how it felt, but it was like laying in light. Some increase in mood and energy levels, but not as much as some others.
For SAD, try the Negentropic Pulsar.
Iāll probably come back to full spectrum light again, soon.
