Dr. Alexis Cowan: Light, a Deeper Look
Sunlight is such an important part of our natural lives and health, so why do we spend much of our waking days hiding from it indoors?
Light biology researcher and truthteller Dr. Alexis Cowan separates real facts from the science-fiction we’ve been forced to swallow for far too long and explains why it’s so harmful for our bodies to be bathed by “junk light” and so much more this week on Spirit Gym.
Learn more about Alexis and her work on her website and via social media on X/Twitter, Linkedin, Instagram and Patreon. Listen to her Undoctrinate Yourself podcast on Spotify and YouTube. Join Alexis and like-minded folks in her Incubator Book Club.
