For the sun-lover

There are times when you wish you can run from the sun. Those days when the sun is on full-on blast and the wind has decided to take a break from pushing everything around. Then, on the flip side there are those days when it's all gray--just bleak and windy and you wonder if the sun still exists. Wouldn't it be great to manage your intake of sun-like rays? Honestly, the sun has been shown to improve people's mood so you shouldn't do without it for long periods of time. To give a little sunlight into a sun lover's life consider the gift of the sun lamp.



The sun lamp can serve various purposes. There are some that may be available to assist with tanning, and others are supposed to help with reading by reducing the glare from objects that can cause eye strain. But ultimately, it's just a little twist on a a pretty safe, though admittedly not typical, gift of a lamp. Everyone can use a lamp and they can be easily exchanged.



Where to go:

You can search all over, but if you have an interest in energy efficiency a possible match is a sun lamp by Brookstone, the HappyEyes™ Floor Lamp. This lamp is specifically for reducing glare and thus reducing eye strain. This lamp also comes with a bulb that is supposed to last longer than bulbs of typical voltage.
