When should I use my LifeLight?
The symptoms of SAD are common during the darker months,
from August through to April, but can equally be triggered during
exceptionally dull summers or dark home/work environments. It
is best to start treatment as soon as possible, so look for signs
that you are anxious, irritable or tired.
You will feel the benefits of the
LifeLight
after three or four days
regular use. If you stop using the
LifeLight
, it will take a similar
period for the effects to wear off.
Most people will reduce their light therapy in Spring – if you feel
your symptoms returning, simply restart your regime.
Remember that light therapy can be used at any time to help
you feel more awake and improve your mood, so make the
most of your
LifeLight
for the occasional boost!
What is the best time of day to use my LifeLight?
Studies have shown that SAD suffers respond best to
treatment in the morning, and that using a therapy light too late
in the day can disturb sleep patterns.
People are different and everyone has their own schedule, so
it is important to figure out a regime that is right for you. If you
struggle with motivation in the morning, you are likely to benefit
from an early session. If you find yourself falling asleep early, a
late afternoon treatment may help.
Thanks to its features, the
LifeLight
shines at fitting in
around your schedule. The rest of this manual will help you
to understand how to get the most out of your
LifeLight
in
building your regime.
