Instructions for use
Light therapy consists of sitting close to the HappyLite
®
Mini with eyes
open. While staying oriented toward the light, feel free to engage in
other activities such as reading, writing, hobby making & crafting,
sewing, needlepoint, applying makeup, painting, or working at a
computer/desk.
Turn on the lamp and allow a few minutes at the start of each session
for the bulb to achieve full brightness.
• The HappyLite
®
Mini should be
positioned about 12-24 inches
from your face, and should be
slightly offset from center (see
diagram) Note: Do NOT stare
directly at the light source.
• The HappyLite
®
’s light must be
directed at your eyes; therefore
your eyes must be open to achieve
the full benefi t. Note: Tinted
glasses reduce the amount of
light reaching your eyes.
Optimum time depends upon your body and how it responds to light.
Typical recommended usage time is 15-60 minutes per day. Ideally,
the HappyLite
®
Mini should be used fi rst thing in the morning. Note:
It is recommended that you limit your exposure to the light during the
evening hours.
Each person’s sensitivity to light is different. It is important to establish
a distance and schedule that is comfortable for you. We recommend
you use the light regularly and at about the same time each day. It is
not necessary to sit in front of the lamp continuously. You can divide the
time into several mini sessions. Continue to use the HappyLite
®
Mini
daily until you feel an improvement in your mood and activity level.
