#470:The Healing Power of Light: Ancient Wisdom Meets Modern Science with Brian Richards

In this episode, I sit down with Brian Richards, founder of SaunaSpace, for a fascinating deep dive into the world of light, EMFs, and how our modern synthetic environment is quietly shaping our biology, mood, and overall health. We explore the ancient relationship between humans and natural light, why most of us are unknowingly starved of the sun’s healing near-infrared spectrum, and how artificial blue light and constant electromagnetic exposure are disrupting our circadian rhythms, hormones, and even emotional well-being. Brian shares his personal healing journey, the science behind light therapy, and simple, practical steps to reclaim your natural state of vitality—so you can feel more energized, think more clearly, and reconnect with the sacredness of just being.  Brian Richards is an internationally known expert in sauna therapy, light science, EMF science. In 2008 Brian transformed his health by creating his own incandescent electric light bath. In 2013, he founded SaunaSpace. His company, based in Missouri, USA, handcrafts innovative saunas and targeted therapy devices that harness nature’s most potent spectrum for light and heat therapy. Thousands of customers have now transformed their lives with the SaunaSpace experience. Nowadays Brian brings a refreshing approach to natural living, spiritual science and natural health transformation.
