Lumie Arabica Notice D'utilisation page 6

English
4 How long?
Everybody's different but, if you use Arabica about 50cm/20inches
from your face as suggested, between 1 and 2 hours (cumulative –
not necessarily in a single session) is usually enough. If you're more
comfortable with it further away, then less light will reach your eyes
and you'll need to use it for longer. If you find your eyes ache
slightly, try sitting further away or switch off for a while.
5 When?
It depends on your sleep cycle. If you find it difficult to wake up in
the morning, switch on as soon as you get up; on the other hand, if
you fall asleep too early, use Arabica in the late afternoon or early
evening. If you've no time in the mornings, or can only manage a
short session, then it's fine to top-up in the afternoon or early
evening. Once you've found a pattern that's right for you, try to use
it around the same time every day. It's best not to use the light late
in the evening as you may find it difficult to get to sleep.
6 How often?
Once you notice the difference, you'll get into the habit of using
your Arabica daily. Most people can skip a day here and there, or
even the occasional long weekend, as long they resume afterwards.
Your body will soon tell you if you've missed some light therapy
sessions and you should use your Arabica for 3 or 4 consecutive
days to make them up.
You can monitor your progress with the questionnaire in this
booklet.
