One bagel and fifteen minutes of light therapy please

One bagel and fifteen minutes of light therapy please

The clocks were set back one hour last night, so you could sleep an hour longer. It also means that we will see less daylight in the coming months. While light is just so good for you.

Bagels &Beans likes to help you through the dark days, that's why from today you get 15 minutes of light therapy for free with your cup of coffee or your bagel.

Why dark days? Daylight contributes to a good day and night rhythm, a better mood and a higher energy level. In the winter we see less light and that can make us more moody, despite enough hours of sleep being tired or unable to get going in the morning. What a little light can do.

Light glasses on
During your visit to Bagels &Beans you will be given Luminette light therapy glasses. These glasses emit light to your eyes through a holographic visor. This boosts your mood and allows you to start your (work) day full of energy.
