Himalayan Salt Lamp

Negative Ion Generator

I used to hate having any peep of light in my room while trying to fall asleep, but recently I have found that quite the opposite. With my new salt lamp, my sleep schedules have become more regular and frequent, I find that I actually fall asleep ten times faster when I have my salt lamp on. After the stress of finals and constant worry of my future/life/current life/grades/everything my sweet little mom came up to my home in East Lansing and dropped off one of these things. At first I was like "mmm kay mom," but to my surprise I have fallen in love with my cute little lamp. My anxiety has balanced out, I can sleep better and I feel more at ease.

Actual benefits of Salt Lamps:

Clean and Deodorize the Air- The lamp is able to remove dust, pollen, smoke and any other possible contaminants to the air, therefore reducing your asthma and allergy symptoms.

Improving your Breathing- The salt lamp filters the air you breathe.

Better Quality of Sleep- Because this magic lamp is a natural negative ion generator, they help reverse the common problem of over exposure to positive ions, which often leads to poor sleeping abilities.

Treat Seasonal Affective Disorder- Generating negative ions improves mood and energy levels, the soft light given off by the lamp resembles sunshine which can be used to relieve symptoms of seasonal affective disorder.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
