Usage Guidelines

For optimal results and to maximize the benefits of light therapy, follow these guidelines:

• Distance: Position the HappyLight Compact approximately 6-24 inches (15-60 cm) from your face.
• Angle: Place the light slightly to the side, not directly in front of your eyes, to avoid direct glare while still allowing the light to reach your eyes.
• Duration: Begin with daily sessions of 10-15 minutes. Gradually increase your session time to 30-60 minutes per day, based on your personal comfort and response.
• Timing: It is most effective to use light therapy in the morning, ideally within the first hour of waking. Consistent morning use helps regulate your body's natural sleep-wake cycle. Avoid using the light close to bedtime, as it may interfere with your sleep patterns.
• Consistency: Regular daily use is key to experiencing the full benefits of light therapy.
