By slowly dimming lights as evening unfolds, you\u2019re not just setting a mood; you are speaking your body\u2019s native language. Warm, low light tells your brain, \u201cYou are safe. The day is over.\u201d Melatonin begins to rise, thoughts lose their sharp edges, and the nervous system shifts from constant vigilance into repair mode.
