Before sunrise, natural light is low in blue light and higher in red/infrared wavelengths. Blue light is what strongly signals your brain (via the suprachiasmatic nucleus) to suppress melatonin and raise cortisol quickly.
Using red light first thing:
-Gently transitions your body out of melatonin production
-Avoids an abrupt cortisol spike
-Supports a more regulated morning energy curve
For women whose cortisol patterns are more sensitive to stress, sleep debt, and cycle phase, this can mean steadier energy instead of a likely mid day energy crash.
