Using the goliTE BlU

When to use 

Knowing at what time to use the goLITE BLU is essential. It may mean the 

difference between feeling better in a few days instead of weeks and 

between experiencing benefits or experiencing none. Follow these 

guidelines to understand how light affects us and when to use the goLITE 

BLU for the best results.

Duration

Most people experience benefits if they use the appliance 20 to 30 

minutes each day. It is safe to use the goLITE BLU longer, provided you do 

so at the correct time of day. You may notice some energizing effects of 

light immediately. Other effects become noticeable after several days of 

regular use.

indoor life and energy dips

If you spend a lot of time indoors with little daylight and artificial light, you 

can experience the energizing effects of the Philips goLITE BLU very 

quickly after you switch it on. 

Many people experience a natural dip in the afternoon. The goLITE BLU 

can help you counteract this dip.

Winter blues

If you experience lower energy levels, an increased need for sleep, and a 

lower mood in the dark season compared to spring and summer, use the 

goLITE BLU for 20-30 minutes a day. Preferably use it in the morning to 

help you start the day. You may also use it later during the day, but do not 

use it in the last few hours before bedtime. If you do, the light could delay 

your sleep and make you even less energetic the next day.

sleep patterns

 - Morning persons tend to wake up early in the morning and usually 

find it difficult to stay awake in the evening. If you want to get more 

out of your evening, avoid bright light directly after waking up and use 

the goLITE BLU in the evening.

 - Evening persons find it difficult to get up in the morning and are full 

of energy in the evening. If this applies to you, you need morning light.

Use the goLITE BLU within the first 1 to 2 hours after you get out of 

bed. Avoid bright light or blue-rich light in the last 4 hours before 

bedtime. Daily use of the goLITE BLU in the morning may help you 

establish a regular sleep pattern that allows you to function better in 

the morning.

Note: If your desired wake-up time is less than six hours after your normal 

bedtime, do not use the goLITE BLU immediately after you wake up. This 

could give your body a signal that is opposite to the one intended.

 - --- means: do not use the appliance at this time.

light intensity

Use the goLITE BLU in addition to the normal room lighting. The goLITE 

BLU is more comfortable to use in a well-lit room. Adjust the brightness 

to a comfortable level. Allow a few minutes for your eyes to get used to 

the bright light. If the highest setting is too bright for you, start using the 

goLITE BLU at a lower setting. Increase the light intensity if you feel no 

effect after a week.
