Received order in a week. That was quick considered I am in Canada! The box was a little too flimsy as the box was slightly crushed. But overall very good transaction.
Himalayan salt lamps are large pieces of actual Himalayan Salt which have a small bulb carefully placed inside them. When lit, these beautiful Himalayan salt lamps emit a warm, soothing pinky orange glow and we are naturally drawn to them. The lamps come in many forms, whether it be rough chunks of salt, smooth carved spheres, chunky salt bowls or pyramids, they provide a natural ambience and a subtle uplifting energy to any room.
They emit negative ions into the air, and this helps to replicate areas in nature where negative ions are abundant, such as by the sea, in the mountains, waterfalls and after a storm. While the negative ions generated from Himalayan salt lamps are generally small amounts, they are clearly still able to gently energize, calm, and also enhance feelings of wellbeing.
There are lots of benefits traditionally associated with Himalayan salt lamps.
- Cleansing the Air and Reducing Allergies
One of the benefits of having a Himalayan salt lamp (or three) in your home is its ability to help cleanse and purify the air through a process known as “Hygroscopy”. Water molecules in the atmosphere are attracted to the lamps surface and then evaporate as they come into contact with the heat of the salt lamp. These water molecules often carry pollen, dust, pathogens and other pollutants, and they are absorbed into the salt crystal which removes them from the atmosphere. This Hygroscopic cleansing and purifying effect can be of benefit to people suffering with asthma, hay-fever and allergies.
- Reduce Electromagnetic Radiation
Many of us live and work in close proximity to electronic devices: computers, television, appliances and the most common one - smartphones. They all emit a certain amount of electromagnetic radiation (EMR). Even though EMR might be invisible, the long term effects can be significant. Prolonged EM radiation exposure can actually increase cortisol levels which can lead to tiredness, increased stress, poor sleep and lowered immunity. Himalayan salt lamps will boost negative ions in a room, and will help lessen EM radiation. Placing a salt lamp on your desk, in your office or TV room may assist with absorbing the detrimental positive ions which are created by electronic devices. Reported health benefits from Himalayan salt lamps include improved energy levels, better concentration and mood, a greater sense of calm, and better sleep.
- Environmentally friendly source of light
Himalayan salt lamps are environmentally friendly. They consume little energy, and the soothing pinky orange light emitted from them is perfect to use as a night light. It’s a good alternative to use for soft mood lighting instead of the harsh blue light from electronic devices. The soft pinky orange glow is also reputed to be beneficial for those with seasonal affective disorder (SAD). Himalayan Salt Lamps also make a beautiful gift – ideal for that person who is often difficult to buy for!
It’s good to note that the larger the salt lamp, the more benefit it will have on your environment. Smaller lamps are ideal to place in bedrooms, and larger lamps would be ideal in offices or rooms where there are more electronics. Keeping them lit is ideal, as they may weep when they have been turned off. For this reason, if you have to turn them off, it pays to pop something underneath them to absorb any moisture that may appear.
