And this is really just coming out.
So sunlight...
has a whole lot of different wavelengths of light in it.
And we see those wavelengths as different colors.
So if you think about the whole rainbow, the whole spectrum of colors, those are all contained in what we think of as white light, as natural sunlight.
And in addition to all the colors, we also get ultraviolet light and infrared light, neither of which we can see with our eyes, but they're both a big part of sunlight.
And infrared in particular is about 50% of the solar spectrum, more than any of the others.
As much as the rest combined is infrared, which we can't see.
And it's actually a very gentle wavelength of light.
It has the lowest energy of the solar spectrum.
But that gentleness, that long wavelength,
means it's actually really good at penetrating inside the body.
You can kind of think of it like radio waves, like radio waves are even further at the end of the spectrum, hugely long wavelengths.
They go through everything, right?
Like they'll travel right through anything pretty much.
infrared can travel through cells pretty well.
So when it hits the body, it'll just sort of keep going until it hits a molecule that is vibrating at the right frequency to absorb that little photon of light.
And in the case of infrared light, that molecule tends to be part of our mitochondria, which is where we make our energy.
Like they're the little things inside ourselves that produce energy.
And we use energy to do everything, whether it's moving or thinking or healing.
