I’m finally joining the crunchy mom bandwagon/party and learning about natural light. As well as all about toxic light that stresses the body and disrupts circadian rhythms. I know I could really benefit from implementing everything in the video down below.

The video shows Thaddeus Owens, a presenter from the 2025 Weston A Price Foundation Conference that was in Utah back in October. While I did go to the conference I didn’t go to this presentation so I’m super happy that the good folks at the WAPF shared this one for free in YouTube. So thank you Weston Price people! This is super important information for everyone to act on and be more hale and hearty.

My favorite part of it is when Mr. Owens shares the success story of one of his clients. This client struggled and struggled to lose his last 45 lbs. Finally he focused on changing his light diet. He didn’t change his food diet. The only two things he did differently was go outside at sunrise and wear blue blocking glasses at night. In 6 weeks he lost 45 lbs.

Mr. Owens also shares the study of two groups of mice. They had the same diet and exercise. One group had light 24/7. The other group had 12 hours of light and 12 hours of dark. The darkness deprived mice became obese and the group that got darkness stayed at a normal weight.

With all the extra stimulation going on during the Christmas season, following this light/dark protocol is a great way to protect ourselves from holiday stresses and emerge feeling nourished and not depleted. I’m excited to test it all out! Wintertime is the best time to honor darkness and see just how nourishing it can be!
