Hey everyone! It's been a while. Well, we're back, with a great one. In this episode of The Light Diet podcast I interview my good friend and founder of Sauna Space, Brian Richards. This was a particularly interesting conversation because we both have a very deep knowledge and understanding of light to complement each other quite well. I'm interviewing Brian here and I definitely make sure to get his specific take on certain subjects where he has greater expertise than myself. We start with how Brian got to making SaunaSpace products, which ends up spurring an entire conversation in itself. We touch on many of the important benefits of natural incandescent light, especially as opposed to LED and fluorescent light sources. I was reminded of many great ideas, and also learned many new things on this fantastic interview with Brian. Be sure to tune in!

He came to understand that light is the primary driving force in all of life, and contrary to what is believed in most of the health world, our modern, indoor, technology-based lifestyle, and not just our food, is the primary driver of the modern chronic disease epidemic. He founded Ra Optics, named after Ra, The Egyptian god of sunlight, medicine, and healing, to create products to make people’s lives better using light, starting with Blue Light Blocking Glasses. He also distilled down everything he learned into a protocol called “The Light Diet” that anyone can use to heal and thrive with light. His research on light revealed that there is, in fact, a solid scientific foundation for many of the teachings of the Ancient East, and inspired him onto a deeper spiritual quest of how to be the best that we can be in this existence. On this podcast, he shares insights from his research and travels on subjects such as light, wellness, spirituality, humanity, and running an online business while traveling the world.
