The smart home just got a whole lot smarter with three fantastic new features added to our MyLights Smart Home Lighting System! In this post, we would like to introduce you to the first feature, MyTime. Read on to find out everything you need to know about MyTime and how it will take your morning routine to illuminating new heights.

The History of Sleep

In the days before our high tech sleeping devices and cool new gadgets, humans used to rise and fall with the sun. This dated all the way back to caveman times when at dawn, the increasing level of light woke them up gradually and at dusk, exposure to the dark favoured the onset of sleep.

This “early to bed, early to rise” concept is still seen as the most natural way to wake up and has proven to have many health benefits. In fact, studies have shown that waking up with the sun can lead to better physical and cognitive function. This means better performance at work or school, being sharper minded and feeling better overall.

But nowadays with our busy schedules and always-on mentality, this has become almost impossible to achieve. Whether you’re a terrible morning person or it simply won’t fit into your current lifestyle, we understand that waking up at the crack of dawn is not realistic for most. But it doesn’t have to be.

Now, you can still reap the benefits of waking up to a brightly lit room without the early morning struggle. Technology has come a long way since humans were drawing on cave walls and sleeping under the stars, and Advantage Air’s MyLights is a fantastic example of this.

Wake Up Gentler with MyTime

As shown above, healthy morning habits can bring order to our lives and kick start a daily routine that benefits our overall well being and productivity. But hitting the snooze button every morning isn’t going to help. Thankfully, now you can put that pesky alarm clock to bed once and for all with MyTime!

Instead of waking up to a screeching alarm clock, you can gently rise to light filling your room. At your selected time, your bedroom lights will start to fade up, until your room is brightly lit. It’s like waking up to the sunrise, even though your curtains are drawn.

By mimicking the sunrise and gently waking you up at a pre-set time, you’ll instantly feel the benefits to your mental, emotional and biological body clock. So whether you have trouble waking up in the morning and need a new tactic to get you out of bed or need to be up super early and don’t want to risk sleeping through your alarm, MyTime is the perfect morning solution for you.

Get your 40 winks and always wake up on the right side of the bed with MyTime. Take the next step and to see what MyLights can do for you.
