84. Mini Podcast - Blue Light Blockers 101: How to Protect Your Eyes, Sleep & Energy

We stare at screens all day long, but what’s that doing to your eyes, your sleep, and even your genes?

In this mini, Susan and Kate dive into the world of blue-light blockers and why these simple glasses can be one of the easiest hacks for better focus, calmer evenings, and deeper sleep.

Susan walks you through her three favorite pairs (clear, amber & red), how each one works, and the science behind how light influences melatonin, circadian rhythm, and recovery. If you spend your days under artificial light, this episode is a must-listen.

In this episode:

• How blue light impacts your eyes, hormones, and energy levels
• The difference between clear, amber, and red lenses (when to use each one)
• How nighttime light disrupts melatonin and sleep quality
• Simple bedtime swaps, from red bulbs to blue-light-free evenings
  
  
  

Short, practical, and surprisingly illuminating, this mini will make you think twice before your next late-night scroll.
