    A Mother's Passionate Fight for Her Newborn's Life: The dark side of the NICU (Newborn Intensive Care) with Regina Lausell

    Regina Lausell founder and owner Light Vitality Group joins the Love Light Reset podcast with Julie Conway to tell her emotional real-life story of her son's premature childbirth and her uphill battle with her son's life in the balance due to lack of light.   ABOUT REGINA LAUSELL Regina came from an architecture and lighting design background and had a career as a lighting product representative when she founded the Light Vitality Group  in 2017. Regina recognized the gap from several industries from the lighting product design to the purchasing and implementation that leaves at least a disjointed design, but more often, places with over bright lighting, lack of lighting and lighting that can cause health issues.   The LVG is a collaborative platform for light wellness support, bridging inter-industry representatives who share one common undertone: to support an individual's wellness so they have the ability to live life to the fullest. Regina's knowledge of circadian health light cycles and lighting products quite literally saved her son's life.   IN THIS EPISODE Regina's baby Luca was born at 25 weeks gestation at nearly 1 pound.  He had 12 surgeries before the age of 4, and fought for his life with many specialists that learned through his journey the importance of light in the healing process.   Luca's first weeks of life were in a completely dark NICU that had no natural light.  Luca was given less than 1-5% chance to live.  When Luca was moved to a specialty hospital, he was given a room with a window, and he immediately began to thrive. Luca's journey striving for life and his journey through the hospital systems  & specialists became Regina's ULTIMATE CASE STUDY for the effect of full spectrum window light on healing.   Luca literally lives today because of his exposure to daylight.  And he had to make that death defying choice twice.  When he was moved again back to a dark inner room with only artificial light, his health failed immediately and was given nearly no chance of survival.   The LVG is reviving now that Luca is doing well.  By providing communities with more relatable education content and Trade professionals with a platform to bridge their interests. Ie: Medical, Municipal, Educational lighting decisions are made with the lighting designers, and collaborative engineers, architects and product designers, to all create healthy cohesive holistic systems.  HgHormone alignment that improved due to daylight was the cause for Luca's turnaround to be alive today.   Most impactful case study: Her presentation and talks are presented to hospitals and other professional groups on the importance of daylight as a literal life and death choice. The concept of Separate Silos in all industries must cross reference for health, light and holistic living. Tap into LVG for a wealth of expertise, education and engagement between Communities, Trade members and the products that make Light Wellness Solutions possible. A mother's grief and struggle to keep working, being professional and care for a prematurely born infant with many health issues and the smallest chance for survival HUMAN GROWTH HORMONE (HGH) is what can be built with proper Circadian Rhythm. This saved Luca's life, and it was the 1 very important metric that was not getting measured with his progress. Proper light diet increases our HGH factor  The Group arose out of the need to properly educate communities and Trade about how natural light impacts our health and our growth as well as encouraging light wellness practices through the collaboration of inter-industry disciplines. Light impacts our health significantly in every space, what is the VALUE ENGINEERING valuing?Only the cost.   Engineers, general contractors, specifiers for municipalities are purchasing cheap blue spike lighting with no knowledge of light spectrum or health issues. How to best utilize light in in-patient care and outpatient recovery? Regina's story became a case study and she presents to hospital doctors and boards to revamp the lighting design and to prioritize light for healing. This heartwarming episode ends on a high note knowing that Luca is an active child, but needs special attention for development.     A THOUGHT TO CARRY WITH YOU Regina is a resource for mothers who may be fighting a similar battle with newborns and preemie babies.

    Returning to Circadian Rhythm With Zaid Dahhaj: Introducing Natural Practices to Balance Health, Improve Vitality and Resist Aging With Proper Light Diet

    Light does more than illuminate a room—it helps shape the atmosphere of our everyday lives. In this Love Light Reset conversation, Julie Conway welcomes Zaid Dahhaj to explore his perspective on circadian rhythm and our relationship with natural light. From the first light of morning to the lamps we choose at night, they discuss the small details that can get lost in a busy, screen-filled day. Zaid shares what drew him into circadian education, why he distinguishes daybreak from sunrise, and how he thinks about stacking environmental cues. Julie brings her experience as a glass artist and lighting designer to a conversation about light, comfort and the spaces where we feel at ease.   ABOUT  ZAID DAHHAJ Zaid Dahhaj is a self-educated circadian biology educator and the writer behind The Circadian Classroom. In this episode, he describes his background in competitive soccer and the loss of his father as part of the personal story behind his interest in health. He shares the thinking behind his 80/20 course and discusses developing educational work for estheticians. No medical qualification or clinical expertise is implied.   IN THIS EPISODE Julie first connected with Zaid through a shared interest in light and the environments we create around ourselves. Together, they explore morning routines, body clocks, evening habits and the pressures of modern life. Their lighting conversation goes beyond a simple incandescent-versus-LED comparison. Zaid discusses flicker, spectrum information and why he sees a place for some circadian-adjacent LEDs, while Julie shares the importance of warmth, atmosphere and thoughtful design in her work. The conversation also touches on his course, the role of personal curiosity and the value of asking questions without dismissing the place of medical care. Personal experiences and guest perspectives are presented as discussion, not guarantees of health outcomes.   YOU'LL HEAR ABOUT The experiences that led Zaid from competitive soccer into circadian education. His 80/20 approach to choosing a smaller set of habits to focus on. Daybreak versus sunrise, and how he describes the start of a morning routine. Light, temperature, meals, movement and social interaction as environmental timing cues. Incandescent lighting, LEDs, flicker and the importance he places on spectrum information. Julie's perspective on atmosphere, art and the light in homes and shared spaces. Evening environments, screens and the pressure to stay constantly available. The Circadian Classroom, his educational work and the closing invitation to stay curious.   A THOUGHT TO CARRY WITH YOU What do you notice about the light in the places where you feel most at ease?   JOIN THE LOVE LIGHT RESET COMMUNITY Join the Love Light Reset mailing list for podcast updates, resources and more conversations about light, conscious design and our connection to the natural world.

    Keeping Your Heart Light on in Times of War: Iranian Designers Keep Hope Through Lighting Design

    Designing is a practice that is dependent on tomorrow.  We are evolving, improving, beautifying or expanding through design of all objects.  When your world is destroyed, what can a designer draw upon for inspiration?  Julie shares a heartfelt discussion with Nima Bavardi and Aidin Ardjomandi, sharing their insights from current wartimes in Iran. Iranian lighting designers raise the frequency through elevation of current status.  Lighting competitions and international lighting community is connected inspiring each other and bringing new ideas to life through industry peer reviewed competitions and exhibitions.     ABOUT NIMA BAVARDI & AIDIN ARDJOMANDI Nima Bavardi was born and currently residing in Tabriz, Iran. Nima's deep passion for creating products that enhance everyday life,  has driven him to be a leader in the international design industry.  He is the founder of Designooor, an online lighting media and magazine, which was recognized as the Best Online Lighting Media of 2025.  Founder of the Kioskedia Awards, Co-founder of the Universal Lighting Platform, and the D'Light Awards as well as being jury of LIT Awards and other organizations, he still finds time to design his own lighting!  His work continues to shape the future of lighting and product design, positioning him as a key figure in the global design community. Nima has earned numerous international design awards throughout his career.   Aidin Ardjomandi is an Iranian multidisciplinary designer, author, researcher, lecturer and design critic whose work moves between the studio, the jury room, the classroom and the page. His designed objects include a new musical instrument that combines the conceptual territories of the cello and didgeridoo. Across the practice, the object is never treated as a neutral solution. It is a carrier of memory, persuasion, cultural reference and emotion. That conviction also shapes his writing. As Editorial Manager of Designooor, Ardjomandi writes about lighting, visual culture, architecture, film, games and the politics of attention. His criticism asks what images frame, what publications legitimize and how design narratives can conceal as much as they reveal. Aidin designs objects, studies how they acquire meaning and questions the systems that decide which designs matter. "This is not a story of light vs darkness.  This is a story of light and light"   IN THIS EPISODE "Not all light is beautiful". Bombs, fire and destruction are forms of light that drive the focus for these designers.  The light within is what must keep shining as new ideas are hope for tomorrow.    YOU'LL HEAR ABOUT In this conversation, you'll hear about: How Julie met Nima and Aidin through submitting lighting projects through for lighting awards. Becoming international friends in the global lighting community. Nima's worldwide reach as a designer, community builder, and jury member for prestigious international awards.  Aidin's requisite for good design is not only how something is created, but how the user is a partner in the story of its use. How war changes focus to find the simple joys of life.  Family, freinds, and favorite local landscapes, flora and fauna. Human centered design. Using light to evoke emotion. Designooor, an online lighting media and magazine, was recognized as the Best Online Lighting Media of 2025 The world sends love to others in who are living in unstable countries at war. It is so important to create friendships around the world who can build the energy of love that does conquer times of darkness. Internet connections in Iran are not stable, and therefore we have a few glitches in the conversation.  Thank you for your understanding. Listen to this episode for inspiration from Iranian designers who create everyday while they live their lives in wartimes. EXTRA:  As we signed off to say our goodbyes, in Julie's morning timezone Nima and Aidin were preparing for a night of bombing by the US.  I hung up the call and cried.  When do we stop hurting each other and this planet? A THOUGHT TO CARRY WITH YOU We always associate light with good and beauty.  What does it take to design from ashes burned by destructive light?   JOIN THE LOVE LIGHT RESET COMMUNITY Sign up for the Love Light Reset mailing list to receive podcast updates, resources, and offers on circadian rhythm products.

    Balancing Healthy Modern Living in Toxic Light Environments: Resources for Light Sensitive People With Mark Baker

    Is it the light that could be making you sick?  In short, Yes.  In this episode of the Love Light Reset Podcast, guest Mark Baker's journey to become a lighting specialist and an advocate for healthy lighting and circadian rhythm balance because of his own health issues through toxic light.  Julie originally reached out to Mark Baker for her own health concerns about driving at night and also how to advocate against the hospitality industry forcing use of LED even in art glass chandeliers meant to deliver awe and sparkle.   The same week of this recording, the NEW SCIENTIST magazine had an LED lightbulb on the cover with the title "Why this Bulb is Wrecking your Health—  The shock revelation that lightbulbs are wrecking your metabolism"  Aug 10 2026   ABOUT MARK BAKER  Founder of The Soft Lights Foundation (2021) that advocates for the protection of people and the environment from the harms of Visible Light radiation emitted by products that use Light Emitting Diodes. An educator, community activist, fearless defender for those with light sensitivity, and a supporter of arts and the dark sky.   IN THIS EPISODE In the launch episode of the Love Light Reset Podcast, Julie Conway & Mark Baker discuss the severe effects that can affect one's quality of life, mental and physical ailments, and even loss of employment due to blue spike light LED.  Mark shares how he lost his job as an educator due to the mental stress caused by the toxic light at the school.  His loss turned him into a ferocious advocate fighting for all of our rights including animals and plants who are suffering from over bright street lights, city lights, headlights, home lighting and illumination in the work place.  How can we integrate full spectrum lighting again into the homes, restaurants, and work places when the general knowledge of LED has been so prevalent.     YOU'LL HEAR ABOUT When you have light sensitivity you can feel very alone and isolated.  What happens when you can't drive at night or have the city plant a street lamp outside your bedroom window? There are no limitations on light (nor on EMF) like sound has in a city limit.  What level of brightness is "lawful"? Toxic light is like toxic food, and since light is our number one nutrition how is this affecting our bodies, mental states and sleep? How can we take action against agents who are making the decisions for cities, headlights and other bright lights? What does energy efficiency mean if the product has poor health effect?  What is "energy efficiency"?  the process of "delivering the same quality of product but using less energy." Frustration in the crossover of art and light.  Julie's feature glass lighting is meant to sparkle and dim to the artist's desires. Her goal is to set the perfect mood, yet her works are often illuminated with over bright LED, or technically don't function properly due to the low voltage flickering of electronic systems and limiting "energy efficiency" standards.    A THOUGHT TO CARRY WITH YOU If you feel that toxic blue light (LED) is affecting your life, your performance at work, or your school, you are not alone.  Love Light Reset is a community to help people find resources like Mark Baker, and the Soft Lights Organization.   JOIN THE LOVE LIGHT RESET COMMUNITY Sign up for the Love Light Reset mailing list to receive podcast updates, resources, and offers on circadian rhythm products.
