Philips EnergyUp Intense Blue HF3420 Bedienungsanleitung Seite 11

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
energy light 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.
Winter depression
If your seasonal mood swings are more severe and you suffer from
depression, consult a therapist and only use light therapy under
supervision. Your therapist may prescribe 30 minutes of treatment per day
at level 1 or 2 over several weeks.
Sleep patterns
- Morning persons usually 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 Philips EnergyUp in the evening close to bedtime.
- 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 Philips EnergyUp within the first 1-2 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 Philips EnergyUp 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 Philips EnergyUp immediately after you wake up.
This could give your body a signal that is opposite to the one intended.
