Surviving the Current Financial Situation

March 3, 2010 by · 7 Comments 

In the current climate of apparent worldwide economic crisis there has been a traumatic worldwide economic meltdown which has put the world economy as we know it at risk. There are many companies who will not survive but there are some who will not only survive but will benefit in these unfortunate times. For instance our business in web design has increased recently because in an effort to reduce costs companies are turning to the internet to improve sales without incurring huge overheads. So companies like ours suddenly are in greater demand. However for the majority of the population it is a question of surviving and getting through it. If your business is on a sound financial footing and you have money behind you then this will be beneficial in the coming months. You may even be able to reduce employee salaries for a period of time, rather than have lay-offs or even closing down, but whatever strategy you apply it will need to be with the agreement of the workforce because a company is dependent of the good will of its employees at such a time. During the early stages of the crisis the British company JCB, which makes big machinery like bull dozers and diggers, chose with the agreement of the workforce, to reduce everyone’s salary for 6 months rather than lay off people or go out of business.

Cash flow

Most businesses go to the wall because of problems with cash flow. If there is not enough revenue coming it to pay for goods and services then it will not be long before a company goes into liquidation. Constant monitoring of the financial position is crucial. It is so easy to spend and not realise how much is leaking out and where it is all going. Keeping a tight control on costs is always a vital activity because that is what makes or breaks a company. More profits always come from reducing outgoings whether it’s reducing waste or cheaper purchasing or decreasing the workforce. I once listened to an audio tape on how to become wealthy and the one item to impact me was the advice to plug the leaks. Most people when running short of money try to find a way of making more money, but without a balance of reducing outgoings they never seem to resolve their problem. The simple reason is that when people earn more they spend more. If you imaging a bath with the tap turned on to fill it up. If the plug is securely in place the bath will fill up fairly quickly. But if the bath was full of holes no matter how much water you pour into the bath it will never fill up. The analogy is that the bath is your bank account, the tap is your earnings and the holes are your spending. Since listening to that tape, I have made a point of keeping expenses to a minimum at home and at work and every little sum of money coming in I see as a positive step to achieving wealth. To achieve sustainable wealth it is essential to take control of your spending and plug the leaks.

Avoid buying anything unless you absolutely have to or defer some necessary purchase for a few more months if possible. It’s amazing how you can manage without something for a period of time by using up existing or old stocks and making sure that waste is reduced to an absolute minimum.

Look for Discounts in Purchasing.

When you do have to procure goods to run the business, make sure you look out for bargains or negotiate for a better deal than you may have achieved previously. When times are tough, sales with no profits are better than nothing and there are some good deals to be had. One company I recently heard about sold a house for half the price when a customer came along with a cash offer.

We were recently tasked with setting up website hosting on a seriously low budget for www.presentsmen.com and we actually managed to find a hosting company who are providing free website hosting if you buy a domain name from them. So just because you have a pre conceived idea that something has to be paid for, or costs a certain amount, it might not necessarily be the case and it is worth investigating all markets and reviewing all costs continuously.

Look for Discounts in purchasing.

By taking a good long hard look at all of the business overheads I am sure it will be easy to identify those areas similar to ours where you have large outgoings. If those costs are essential to the functioning of the business then looking for better deals with other providers or renegotiate with current provider to maybe save thousands of dollars. So in many ways the current economic climate could be seen as a good thing because it forces businesses to review their outgoings and get rid of the dead wood. In any business, the higher the outgoings, the smaller the profits. When there is an economic downturn or some loss of business unless you have unlimited capital set aside, it is vital to reduce spending otherwise the business will not survive. Most really successful businesses understand the value of controlling outgoings and constantly review costs, even when times are good.

Tighten your Belt – No need for Fancy Spending

Although looking at reducing large overheads is one way to improve the viability of your company, another is to pay attention to the small amounts going out. It is so easy to think ‘Oh it’s only a few pounds’ but small amounts add up and can so easily get out of control. Remember that old saying ‘take care of the pennies and the pounds will take care of themselves’ I think it is so true. So cut out unnecessary spending, no perks on the business such as lunches or dinners to woo customers. They rarely actually need it if your business is offering honest value for money and top class services, and in most cases customers and prospects will appreciate you being prudent if it means you stay in business and continue as their valued suppliers. Managing directors can lead the way by paying themselves less or taking a pay cut showing that they are willing to tighten their own belts.

Recently it was announced that Bruce Forsythe was taking a cut in salary for his position as the host of Strictly Come Dancing, one of the most popular programmes on TV at the moment. He believed that they were being paid too much and put his money where his mouth was.

Another major area of expense is salaries and the costs that go with them. If you employ a large number of people the overhead expenses are huge. However there is always a natural wastage where people leave or retire so without actively having to make people redundant there may be opportunities to reduce the wages bill when times are hard. Efficiency and effectiveness of the people working in the company is critical and communicating with the workforce as to how they can reduce wastage and be more effective can be a rewarding policy.

One example from my previous work in organisations was when running a supervisors workshop. One of the delegates was complaining that when he needed to order supplies he had to sent the request up the line and wait until the senior manager had given the go ahead. As he was responsible for keeping supplies stocked and felt very frustrated at the time it took for him to get the approval he needed. I was amazed to hear that he was being so hampered in doing his job properly. So when I asked the question. ‘What’s to stop you ordering the goods yourself?’ after a long think, he said it had always been done that way. Nobody had questioned the procedure and whether it was still necessary to follow it. The outcome was that the he was given the go ahead to do the ordering himself and the senior manager was freed from one task he could happily do without.

Do Your Customers have Financial Liquidity?

If one of your customers is a very large company and they are source of the majority of your revenue then you are in a high risk position. It is a good idea to ensure that you have more than one high volume customer as well as lots of smaller ones so that you will be covered if one suddenly defaults on payment.

Find out the financial viability of your best customers. When the income of a customer falls then their ability to purchase goods and services is affected. If they are able to pay, then you will be able to pay your suppliers. There is nothing worse than doing a lot of work or selling a lot of stock to customer and then not getting paid. Situations like this can often cost you money, and that is the road to financial ruin, so be sure to be aware of your client’s economic situation as best as possible. We use the free Dunn and Bradstreet financial tracking service to identify any negative changes registered against any of our major clients

One of our clients, a firm of, Nottingham town planning consultants were unfortunate enough to have one of their major clients go bust on them with an oustanding balance of about £10,000. This was a huge sum to lose. View their planning website now. They survived because their business was very healthy with positive cash flow.

Find out the financial stability of your best customers. When the income of a customer falls then their ability to buy goods and services is reduced. If they are able to pay on time, then you will be able to pay your suppliers. There is nothing worse than doing a lot of work or selling a lot of stock to customer and then not getting paid. Situations like this can often make the difference between success or failure. The cost to you in money and wasted effort and resources could be the road to financial ruin, so make sure you are aware of your client’s economic situation as much as possible. When the financial crisis happened one of our best customers suddenly switched to a two month payment plan which meant that we did not get any money from them for a month. When we protested the chief executive told his manager to find another suppler. There were a number of outstanding invoices worth thousands of pounds and we were powerless to do anything. Our overheads were compromised for that month but we were fortunate enough to have access to a reserve fund to tide us over. And yes we did get paid the whole amount over time.

Avoid Borrowing Money

When the world is in a financial crisis it is better not to borrow money if you can help it. If you have already borrowed significant sums of money then make sure you talk to your bank and get the best deal on repayments you can. If it’s possible to repay a chunk of money to reduce the interest you are paying out then do so. To me interest is money going out for nothing in return and is not good money management.

Having said all that, the interest rate in America is just over 1% and recently rates have been radically reduced in the UK. But that in itself is what caused this whole financial mess in the first place. People borrow money cheaply then re-lend it at a higher rate of interest and take the difference in profit. Once the interest rate rises to a more normal level they will bail out and take their billions off to buy an island somewhere while everyone else pays the price. I know that is an over simplification of the problem, but it serves to demonstrate that the greed of a few has caused the distress of millions of the majority.

In my property rental business, a few years ago I had to let a house at a reduced rent but found a good long term tenant. This meant that the income was only just covering my costs but subsequently, because of the drop in interest rates, the mortgage repayments on the property have been reduced by £150 a month. This means I have been able to realise a small profit and with that money I am reinvesting it in improvements to the house. Long term I see it as a good investment to maintain the standard and value of the property. So for some companies who have had to borrow money to stay afloat there is the benefit of lower interest rates to reduce the burden of repayments.

You Only Have to Make it Through

The world economic situation is currently, I realise, much more complicated than we are suggesting above. Although it is true that the simple way of managing crisis is often the best solution. If you cut everything back to the bone and try to recreate the days when people did not have such complex lives, it can allow you to get on top of a situation. Years ago people used to manage their company without armies of specialists to provide tax advice, many coped without water coolers and other such luxuries such as cleaning services and people who come round every few weeks to disinfect the telephones! they coped through carrying out extra work on their own when required or they just went without. As your company regains its footing, or recovers, it probably won’t make commercial sense to sit and trawl through your business accounts doing book keeping yourself or to have to do a lot of extra research and administration, so you can restore those facilities that help to make you more money once the business has recovered.

Now I am not suggesting that we should go back to the good old days. What I am saying is that we might think we can’t manage without all our gimmicks such as mobile phones that take photos, but the reality is that we can do more with a great deal less, as long as we put ourselves into the right frame of mind and think positively about what we can achieve rather than what we haven’t got. Obviously as your business grows, or recovers, it doesn’t become economically viable to sit and trawl through tax return forms or to have to do a lot of extra research and administration yourself, so you can reintroduce those facilities as and when you have recovered your financial equilibrium.

Think what the Victorians did with the limited resources they had at their disposal. The horse was the main mode of transport and they used the manure to heat cold- frames and managed to grow pineapples without any other form of heating. They did not have cars, computers, mobile phones or even phones. The railway was only just coming into being, and they did not even have electricity. But with their energy and ingenuity they conquered the world. The industrial revolution with their steam driven engines changed our economy for ever. In the past there was no such thing as ecommerce web design and yet businesses survived|thrived.

Stay in a Positive Mode

By this I do not mean be in denial and pretend the world is not going through a financial challenging time. But if you are continually thinking and worrying about the negative aspects of the financial situation, then you are likely to make it come true. Don’t forget you get what you wish for and by concentrating on something then it will work like a wish, so why not concentrate on ways of getting new customers, giving better value to your existing customers and how your company could offer new products or services to your existing customer base?

Conclusion

Although during this recession there is no doubt times are hard for people who have lost their work. No work, equals no money coming in, so how do people pay their bills and their mortgages? If consumers have been prudent during times of prosperity and they have a nest egg for a rainy day, then they can probably manage for a few months until they get another job. But if they are already up to their eyes in debt then they will face personal bankruptcy and could lose everything.

In spite of all that, some people are managing quite well if they have jobs or some other type of income. One article I read recently said that the death rate reduced noticeably during recession and put that down to eating more economically at home and not eating so much junk food. So OK we can’t afford to go out for meals as much, and things are more expensive, but home prepared food is often better for you and sharing meals with the family is a way of coming together and communicating. So it’s not all bad. Good luck for a prosperous future.

Hello -it is becoming clear that using zero point magnetic energy to create new energy could change the way we create electricity.. I figured it is a great time to review the Magniwork Generator plans.

Review of Magniwork Generator Plans

Magniwork Magnetic Generator – Review and Information Section

Personally, I have noticed that magnets and the energy they produce should be looked at like a top option for a an alternative energy source among home owners and busniesses everywhere.

There seems to be a large number of free/alternative energy users where I am from, and its quite normal to get together and build many different Alternative Energy generators – Its not only about getting zero point magnetic energy, and its always quite important to us to assist people that want some help before they begin there own free energy experience

Facts About Magniwork Generators

Magniwork Energy – No Sun – No Wind – No Outside Help

For the most part zero point magnetic energy devices is that they are easier to use and build than any other magniwork Energy machines. Because magnetic energy needs no sunshine , wind or water -it will ALWAYS be able to give you free energy on demandThe Magniwork Will work during the biggest storms. It is practically like having  an emergency generator that NEVER DIES.

The biggest reason why Zero Point Magnetic energy is different -its because the Magniwork Magnetic Generator will never depend an sun or wind -

    * No Sunlight
    * No Wind
    * No Water

Nothing. You wont find anything that will prevent this machine from providing you with energy. And it will never STOP it from working either – Which can not be said about solar and wind.

Home Security Tips

February 9, 2010 by · 8 Comments 

Here’s a few tips for making your home more secure.

1) Lighting is your best and cheapest defence against burglaries. If a burglar can be seen it’s much more risky for them to target your house. Neighbours and passerbys could potentially see them and notify the police. Use an energy efficient compact fluorescent bulb in your front and rear porch light and leave them on all nite. You can automate this by connecting them to a timer or photocell.

2) Make sure your house is not hidden from view. At least make sure that your front door can be seen from the street. Clear away overgrown shrubbery from the front of your house. Don’t give potential burglars anything that they can use to conceal their activities.

3) Install motion sensors to light up the dark areas of your property. There’s nothing more startling to someone approaching your home to be suddenly bathed in light. Motion sensors are very cheap and can be installed easily in existing or new light outlets. They can be set to stay on for a set period of time when triggered by motion.

4) When you go on vacation, connect some lamps in your home to plugin timers. Some timers allow you to set multiple on/off events every 24 hours. Do this with 2 or 3 lamps to give the impression that someone is home in the evenings. This is especially important if someone is watching your house to determine if anybody is home. Ask your neighbour to pickup mail and newspapers every day. There’s nothing like a pile of newspapers on your front porch to tip off a burglar that you’re away.

5) Install dead bolt locks on all your doors. This is a fairly inexpensive way to secure your home. Deadbolts cannot be picked as easily as regular door locks. This is something the average homeowner can install with a minimum of tools.

Your best defence is to make sure that it appears that someone is always home, even when you’re not. For even more security consider installing a burglar alarm in your home.

Several Facts Why Solar Power For Residences Is Becoming Popular

January 30, 2010 by · 7 Comments 

Admittedly, the immense popularity of solar power nowadays is largely due to the fact that it can save money on your monthly utility bills, although of course this is not the only reason why more and more people are turning towards solar power.

Simply by being aware of some of these reasons, you’ll be able to understand why so many people are deciding to have solar power in their homes. Out of interest sake, here of some of the reasons why solar power has become so popular.

One: One of the reasons that residential solar power is a good idea for a lot of people is because once you get it installed, it is pretty much maintenance free. This means that the upkeep of your solar power will be very low.

Two: Another remarkable quality of solar power is that the solar panels are for the most part long lasting, meaning that you don’t need to replace them on a regular basis, and thus saving your money in the long run.

Three: Solar panels are made in all different shapes and sizes, which means that no matter what your home’s design is, you can pretty much install solar power almost anywhere.

Four: Not only has the cost of solar power become more affordable in recent years, but the cost of oil and gas has increased steadily meaning that more and more people are seeking alternative energy sources.

Let’s face it; the sun can provide us with an endless supply of energy and this energy can then be converted to electrical power thanks to modern technology. Of course this is by far a cheaper and more cost effective way of powering our homes.

Of course, these are certainly not the only reasons for the increasing popularity of solar power, but they are the most important. Now that you have a better idea as to why solar power is so popular, you should also take note of a few considerations which need to be made before you decide to use solar power.

One: How much sunlight does your home get? This is important because if your home is always in shade, or it is cloudy and rainy all the time where you live, then solar power may not be your best choice.

So, you have to take the weather and how much sun your home receives into consideration because this will make a difference in how well it works to provide energy for your home.

Furthermore, because residential solar power is not permitted in all cities and towns, one needs to take into consideration any relevant laws. To this end, it is in your own best interest to get confirmation from your local authority or even from neighbors.

These are the most important factors to take into consideration before deciding to use residential solar power for your home. Now that you know the reasons that so many people are using solar power and the important factors to consider, you can make an informed decision about whether this is the best choice for you. It is for a lot of people, but not for everyone.

There are several step-by-step digital ebooks describing how to install solar energy for your home. Visit these pages for more in depth information: Power 4 Home Review and Earth4Energy Review.

Which Generator Will Be Best For Your Needs?

January 15, 2010 by · 8 Comments 

There are many options for the home owner and business operator when the time comes to choose a generator: so many, actually, that it can be very confusing to the uninitiated. What type of fuel do you prefer – diesel or petrol? Is your requirement for a small “emergency” generator for use in the home, or one with sufficient power to act as a back up when the mains electricity is not working in your business? If you don’t have much of an understanding of how silent generator work, you will find it difficult to select one.

How then, do you make a choice? Firstly, you should investigate for what precise purpose you will require the generator, as this will assist you in determining the capacity. If you require a honda generator for around the home, it would not make sense to choose a heavy duty industrial generator, as it would supply more power than you require. Similarly, if you need to run machinery, a small generator will not be enough as it is bound to fail when you need it most.

Diesel and petrol generators operate in a similar way. Diesel electrical generators are usually found in agricultural environments, on construction sites and in factories and warehouses: in fact, anywhere there is a need for a portable and reliable source of energy. This can be due to the absence of mains power (for example construction sites) or the mains power cannot always be relied upon (agricultural areas and factories).

When you are deciding upon your generator needs, you should opt for the most efficient model. The size of the honda generator is indicated by the output and speed given by the manufacturer: generally speaking, a more powerful generator has a higher output and speed. Most generators fall between an output of 5KVA (kilovolt-ampere units) and 2500KVA. The lower KVA generators are suitable for home use, whereas the the higher ones are more than ample for most industrial applications.

The efficiency of the model is the initial step: however, you will also have to determine the load you need to supply. To do this, you just have to calculate the power demand, whether this be for home or business use, during normal operating conditions. The amount of power that the generator can output will tell you whether it is powerful enough to meet the needs of your home or business: the the amount of fuel the tank holds only indicates the number of hours the generator will operate between refueling.It is always a good idea to choose a generator that can provide a little more power than you really need, thus minimising the possibility of overloading.

Something else you may need to give some thought to is the noise level of the silent generators. Does the generator need to be run during the night in the home? If this is the case, you should choose a silent diesel generator as the decibel output of these is much much reduced when compared to than traditional diesel generators. It is also sensible to choose a silent diesel generator with a large fuel tank, to guarantee that it runs overnight, thereby avoiding refueling in the middle of the night. The noise level is not such an important aspect if it is used in an industrial situation, or during the day.

If the generator is to be used only occasionally, it makes sense to purchase a good quality used generator, as this will save you a significant amount of money.

Having a diesel generator available for emergency situations, such as natural disasters or power outages, or even when there is no existing mains electricity (camping is one such example) is an excellent idea. However, it pays to to do your homework and carefully choose a generator that best suits your individual needs.

Tennis Is Out, Squash Is In

January 15, 2010 by · 8 Comments 

Back within the nineteenth century, children in France loved enjoying by hitting a small ball against the wall. They made up the rules as they went along. Someday later this game entered the monasteries and during fasts young men entertained themselves by throwing the ball from one aspect of the yard to the opposite across a fishing net. This game was the ancestor of tennis.

Since this game was reserved for the nobility solely, poor people invented their own game called racket ball. This game was played in such a method that the ball was hit against the wall. The ball looked like a fashionable golf ball and the racket was longer than the one used for tennis. Soon this game unfold around Britain and have become a favorite recreation. One alternative game was conjointly very in style and it was referred to as fives (for 5 fingers on the hand). The distinction between rackets was that the ball was hit by hand and this game became called squash.

It’s played in a field of 6.4 by 9.7 meters, and the height of the wall is sometimes 5 meters. The rules of the game are very straightforward two players play it, the sport is for three winning sets and every game is for 9 points. A purpose in the sport will be won by serving. The essential rule of this sport is that after the serve, a ball can hit the floor only once.

One can lose between 7000 to 1000 calories per hour by enjoying this game. Thanks to the high speed of the ball and also the players, and with a nice loss of energy briefly amount of your time, squash has become terribly widespread to people who continually lack time for other sports. It is a tournament sort of sport and one amongst the biggest tournaments in the world is the Squash British Open. In the last few years a large campaign was launched for enabling this sport to become a part of the Olympic Games.

Some say squash can not be taught because all one wants to try to to is get into the field and get pleasure from the game. It’s one in all the toughest sports to play because of its speed, however the laborious work put in yields wonderful results for fitness and stamina.

Can Limu help Diabetes?

January 12, 2010 by · 8 Comments 

Here is an eye opening statistic: 26 Million people have type 2 diabetes, Over 6 million of them are undiagnosed – Source: national Diabetes Statistics of the National Diabetes Clearing house

So what is Diabetes?

Type 2 diabetes occurs when your body either does not create enough insulin, or, it ignores the insulin that it is producing. What is Insulin? Insulin is a hormone that takes sugar (glucose) from the body and takes it to the body’s cells, where usually it would convert food into energy. If your body doesn’t have the correct manufacture of insulin, too much sugar remains in the blood stream, leaving body famished of energy. If you have excessive sugar in the bloodstream it can lead to harm to nerves, kidneys and even the heart can be put at risk.
In addition to increasing your risk of heart disease, one of the most disquieting facts about diabetes is that it can produce or worsen many life threatening conditions. Many of these diseases can benefit from limu’s nutrients and its multifaceted carbohydrate polysaccharide, fucoidan.

How can Limu affect Diabetes?

Limu contains the complex carbohydrate polysaccharide and anti-oxidant rich Fucoidan. Fucoidan promotes curing of the harm caused by diabetes by helping toward balancing blood sugar, lowering blood lipids, speeding wound healing and preventing future damage. So Fucoidan helps frankly with:

Balancing Blood Sugar Levels
Eliminating highs and lows in blood glucose levels helps prevent damage to eyes, kidneys, nerves and the heart. Limu’s polysacharride from Fucoidan help stabilize blood glucose levels by slowing the incorporation of glucose from the intestines into the blood stream.

Prevents Insulin Over-Response
Similarly, fucoidan also keeps insulin levels in equilibrium. When too much insulin is released, hunger is enthused and can add to weight gain.

Improves healing
Slow wound healing plagues a lot of diabetics. Fucoidan stimulates hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), which boosts tissue healing.

High Cholesterol
Limu’s fucoidan alters the action of liver enzymes that control the way fatty acids are metabolized, resulting in a lower LDL cholesterol levels in the blood. LDL cholesterol build up (plaque) on arterial walls is a principal cause of heart attack and stroke. Scientists in 5 separate studies report that fucoidan is influential in preventing hardening of the arteries – a major supplier to heart disease.

High Blood Pressure
The result Limu has on the above conditions also helps reduce the risk of stroke by alleviating hypertension (high blood pressure). Limu is able to recover blood pressure by lowering lipid levels.

Boosts the immune system
Fucoidan’s chemical composition contains identical antibodies and nutrient as human breast milk, which help bolster the immune system. Fucoidan stimulates production of fundamental immune cells, helping the body better cope against viruses, bacteria, parasites, fungi and even cancer cells.

Why use Limu?

For over 3000 years the natives of the south pacific island of Tonga have known about the astounding benefits of Limu Moui – a brown seaweed that grows beneath the clear waters surrounding the islands. In these untainted, pristine waters, Limu is able to absorb trace minerals and vital nutrients found there in a readily-available form.

Studies prove Impact on Health
More than 650 independent studies, unsolicited, 3rd party studies have identified the compound that sets Limu apart from other natural sources is fucoidan. These studies have come from all around the globe. Visit www.pubmed.org to see how well researched fucoidan is.

Live better with Limu Plus!

Limu Plus is a Limu moui tonic which has helped many people with health conditions and stress related illness. View some testimonials of real people receiving real health benefits.

Philips HF3461 review

December 15, 2009 by · 5 Comments 

Most of us know what it feels like to be tired. And I’m guessing that most of us know how sluggish we feel on a cold, dark winter’s day. In fact it’s so natural to feel like that that most of us take it for granted.

But what many people don’t know is that daylight has a very dramatic effect on how you feel. Both the amount and quality of light has an impact. Which of us hasn’t felt wonderful in the warm glow of a beautiful sunset?

Research shows that light stimulates the senses. Light is energy, after all. And light can give you more energy which in turn can help you less lethargic. Is it any wonder then that people wake easily in the summer months, but often have trouble in the dark winter months? That’s why some people use special lighting, such as the HF3461.

When light falls onto your eyes your brain gets a message to produce cortisol. That stimulates you, because it’s the energy hormone. When it’s time to wake up in the morning a good bathing of light is important so that your hormones are better balanced and you’ll feel more energetic right from the get-go.

But what do you do if you don’t get enough natural light? That’s when devices such as the Philips HF3461 can help. It’s classed as a medical device. That’s right, the Philips hf3461 wake up light alarm clock is actually classifed as a medical device.

Offering up to 400 Lux light intensity, it easily meets the level of 250 Lux that is required to affect energy hormones so you wake up full of energy. And for easy reading a light level of 300 to 400 Lux is ideal to avoid eye-strain, so such lighting devices are great for catching up on your favourite novel before bed!

Only you know whether you have trouble waking each morning, but remember that light can help. And if you don’t have a suitable natural source of light – for example if your bedroom window is obscured by other buildings – then a specialist natural light alarm clock might just be the thing you need.
