When to Use Your goLITE
Because an imbalance in circadian rhythm affects everybody differently, understanding how it affects
you is critical to feeling better. Knowing what time to use the goLITE can mean the difference between
responding in just a few days instead of weeks, and perhaps not responding at all. Follow these guidelines
to understand how light affects your body clock and when to use the goLITE for the best results.
Usage Duration and Intensity
Most people get beneficial results from fifteen to thirty minutes of usage each day. You can start using
your goLITE at 50% intensity and increase the level of light if you feel like your body is not responding
within a week of beginning treatment.
Time of Day
If you find it difficult getting up each day without an alarm clock or you are sleeping in, you need morn-
ing light. Use the goLITE within the first hour or two after waking.
If you find it difficult staying awake in the late evening and wake up too early in the morning, you need
evening light. Use the goLITE before the onset of drowsiness.
If you don’t notice a shifted circadian rhythm, use the goLITE when you wake up in the morning for
fifteen to thirty minutes and then again in the evening for approximately the same amount of time. Place
the goLITE further away from you during the evening treatment. This will help your body clock from
confusing the stronger morning signal with evening time. Don’t use the goLITE within two hours of
bedtime. The goLITE suppresses the nighttime hormones for at least two hours, and you may not be able
to fall asleep.
