<p><BR />The SunUp is the only dawn and dusk simulator, proven through clinical research, to be effective in the treatment of SAD. The sunUp Is not an alarm clock. It does not alarm your body awake. It is a small computer that allows you to turn any table lamp into a simulated dawn or dusk. The dawn feature will gradually fill your room with a warm sunny glow, replicating the pattern of a natural sunrise. This allows you to awaken naturally without the annoying noise produced by alarm clocks or alarm radios.  The advantage to using your own lamp is you can choose your desired brightness (up to 400 watts). Pi Square SunRizr and sunUP Dawn/Dusk simulators are a breakthrough for people who must wake up before sunrise. Just plug  a lamp into the dawn/dusk simulator and plug the simulator into a wall outlet.  You have all you need to bring dawn into your room any time you want.  These programmable devices allow you to set the time your dawn will start.    <BR /></p>

<p>
While there are many different types of meditation, there are two general classifications: concentrative and mindfulness.  In concentrative meditation, you focus on clearing your mind to provide you with greater concentration, awareness and clarity. In mindfulness meditation, you open your mind to become more aware of the things around you, such as scents, sounds and thoughts.</p>
<p>The easiest way to engage in concentrative meditation is to sit quietly and focus on your breathing.  Relax and count your breaths as you breathe through your nose. Take deep breaths, hold them and let them out slowly. This helps you to get oxygen into the lowest portions of your lungs.</p>
<p>There are times when you mind may wander, but you refocus on your breathing to get rid of your thoughts. You can also focus on an object when meditating or you may want to repeat a phrase or a word. This is called mantra meditation in which you can choose to repeat the word or phrase aloud or silently in your head.</p>
<p>If you are agitated or worried about something, your breathing will be short and fast when you first start this type of meditation. As you start to relax, your breathing will slow down and become regulated.  As you focus on your breathing or on an object, your mind will become absorbed with the regulation of your breathing and all other thoughts will vanish from your mind.</p>
<p>Mindfulness meditation involves a passing parade of thoughts, emotions and images through your mind. You sit in a meditating position and instead of trying to banish the thoughts from your mind, you allow them to enter. You do acknowledge that they are present but you don’t concentrate on them. This allows you to develop a calm approach to your problems so that you don’t react quickly.</p>
<p>Instead of focusing on one individual thought or scene, you allow each though to become part of the bigger picture. It trains your mind to meditate on things in your life over which you have no control so that you have a heightened sense of inner peace that will enable you to go on with your life in spite or extreme difficulties.</p>
