Do take vitamin D for this but there is just something about mother nature’s rhythm that by body mind and soul tends to align with. Has anyone every experienced this and aside from a vitamin D supplement tried things like natural lighting simulating the sun (like a bulb of some sort)

Yes, I use "broad spectrum lighting," esp in the winter. My DH built a large unit on a stand, which is also on a timer/dimmer, slowly getting brighter. We had built this according to specs given to us by my pdoc. The specs are readily available, I am sure.
I've seen some very nice pre-built models, table-top sized and otherwise. I'd bought my mom a table-top sized one because she sits at the table for a couple of hours in the morning. She is very sensitive to the level of sun/daylight, every day.
I highly recommend this approach to getting enough light exposure.
I also keep my Vit D levels up with supplementation.
