Natural daylight is the source of all life on earth. Not only is it essential for the natural world around us, but it also plays a crucial role in your own physical and mental health. Light plays an important role in many processes in the human body. When people experience little natural daylight, some report feeling less focused or energetic. This is often linked to changes in the biological clock.

How light controls our brains

It is fascinating how our brains respond to light. Light signals are transmitted to the brain through our eyes, which play a role in the day and night rhythm. That is why many people experience greater alertness during the day when there is sufficient light and greater calm in the evening when there is less light.

During the dark months, many people talk about a so-called winter blues, where they feel less energetic for a long period of time. Sufficient exposure to bright light is therefore often perceived as pleasant.

Moreover, in modern society, we often spend

When autumn makes its appearance, the leaves fall and the days become noticeably shorter, something changes in our environment. For many, the transition to the colder months is not only a change in wardrobe, but also a change in how we feel. Many people experience a marked drop in their energy levels during this period. You feel tired more quickly, are irritable for no apparent reason, or find that you simply can't get out of bed in the morning. This phenomenon, often described as a winter dip, is our body's natural response to changing light conditions. Fortunately, you don't have to suffer through this; with the right knowledge and Meditech Europe's seasonal products, you can transform this period and become fully winter fit.

The science behind your biological clock

To understand why many people feel differently in winter, it's good to look at our biological clock. This internal regulation helps tune processes such as sleep-wake rhythms, energy levels and when the body prepares for

Our bodies run on an ingenious internal clock: the circadian rhythm. This rhythm controls not only our sleep, but also our hormones, energy levels, digestion, and even our mood. What many people don't know is that this biological clock does not run exactly 24 hours. As a result, our rhythm can quickly become disrupted—especially during the darker months, with irregular working hours, or due to excessive screen use. In this blog, you will discover how the circadian rhythm works, why it sometimes becomes unbalanced, and how you can restore your energy, sleep, and well-being through the smart use of light.

What is the circadian rhythm?

The circadian rhythm is an internal 24-hour cycle that determines when you are awake, alert, hungry, and sleepy. It is also known as the biological clock or biorhythm. It is controlled by a small “central clock” in the brain: the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), a small but crucial area in the hypothalamus, deep within the brain. The hypothalamus regulates all

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), winter is the season of rest, depth, and recharging your energy. During this period, the focus is mainly on the kidneys and bladder: organs that, according to TCM, support our vitality, warmth, and inner stability. In this blog, you will discover how you can nurture your energy this winter with nutrition, lifestyle, and natural support that are in line with the water element. Read on and be inspired to get through the winter months with more balance, warmth, and resilience.

The silent power of winter

Winter is associated with the element of Water—the element of depth, wisdom, and essence. It is a time when we are invited to slow down, cherish our energy, and keep our inner fire warm.

What is migraine?

Migraine is a common, chronic brain disorder characterized by recurring, often severe headache attacks. Unlike ordinary tension headaches, migraines are often accompanied by symptoms such as nausea, sensitivity to light and sound, and sometimes visual or physical warning signs, known as aura. The exact cause of migraine is not yet fully understood, but it is believed to be a combination of genetic predisposition, hormonal fluctuations, impaired processing of stimuli in the brain, and influencing lifestyle factors. Known triggers include stress, lack of sleep, bright light, strong smells, and certain foods such as alcohol, chocolate, and mature cheese.

Common symptoms of migraine

The symptoms of migraine can vary from person to person and from attack to attack, but the most common symptoms are:

• Severe, throbbing headache, often on one side of the head

• Nausea and sometimes vomiting

• Sensitivity to light, sound, and smells

• Reduced ability to concentrate during an attack

• Sometimes

The energy of autumn according to TCM

As the days grow shorter and the air feels fresher, autumn announces itself gently but unmistakably. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), this is the season when energy turns inward and we prepare for the calm of winter. In TCM, autumn is associated with the element Metal, which represents clarity, structure and the ability to let go of what no longer serves us. Just as trees drop their leaves, we are invited to leave ballast behind and focus on what nourishes and protects
