Blue light at night suppresses melatonin about twice as long as green light (≈3 h vs. 1.5 h), so minimizing blue-rich lighting improves mood by reducing hormonal disruption.

A 30% improvement in mood has been associated with better sleep quality and reduced anxiety levels.
Long-term exposure to blue light at night can disrupt circadian rhythms, potentially leading to chronic sleep disorders.
Pro Tips

Use blue light filters or glasses in the evening to reduce exposure.
Consider using dim, warm-colored lighting in the evening to promote melatonin production.
