3 Benefits I Saw When I Put On Blue-Light-Blocking Glasses Over Regular Glasses

Since college, I've been wearing glasses but they aren't normal glasses. My glasses are blue-light-blocking glasses and they have so many benefits.

Freshman year of college I was introduced to blue light glasses by my friend Karissa. To this day I am so happy that I got a pair because they have helped to reduce my headaches and eye strained. These issues we coming from the overexposure of artificial blue light. Blue light is all around us, which is emitted from computers, phones, TVs, and LED lights. So, If you spend any time utilizing these electronics or even just spend lots of time indoors you may want to invest in something to help put some ease on your eyes.

1. Helps you to sleep better

if you have trouble sleeping, like many college students it may because you are on your phone late at night and that artificial light keeps your brain up thinking that it is day time. Wearing blue light glasses are more likely to help you a better sleep because those harmful light rays your phone is putting off are blocked.

2. Reduces screen glare

ever looking at a screen and the lighting is not right in the environment and you are having trouble seeing, well with blue light glasses you can say goodbye to this common problem.

3. Reduces Headaches

I am one to have headaches after being exposed to too much blue light and in my experience blue light glasses have helped to reduce the amount of headaches I've gotten. As well it has been able to increase the time I can to spend on my electronics for personal and school situations because I feel better when using them now.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
