Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) affects millions of people each year, especially during the darker months. Reduced sunlight can lead to fatigue, low mood, difficulty concentrating, and other symptoms associated with seasonal depression. Fortunately, a light therapy lamp, such as the GLOWRIUM Full Spectrum SAD Lamp, can help alleviate these symptoms and improve overall well-being.
What is a SAD Light?
A SAD lamp, also known as a light therapy lamp or happy light, simulates natural sunlight. It emits full-spectrum light, typically at 10,000 lux, and is designed to be safe for daily use. By mimicking natural daylight, these lamps help regulate your circadian rhythm, boost serotonin levels, and counteract the effects of seasonal depression.
Why Use a Light Therapy Lamp for SAD?
People with SAD often experience:
-
Persistent low mood

Fatigue and low energy

Using a SAD lamp consistently can:
-
Improve mood and overall energy

How to Use Your GLOWRIUM SAD Lamp
-
Position the Lamp Correctly
Place the lamp on a stable surface within your space, 16–24 inches away from your eyes. You don’t need to stare directly at the light — indirect exposure is sufficient. -
Set the Duration
Start with 20–30 minutes per day in the morning. Depending on your needs, you can gradually increase the duration to 45 minutes. Avoid using the lamp late in the day, as it may interfere with sleep. -
Adjust Brightness and Angle
The GLOWRIUM SAD Lamp offers adjustable brightness levels to match your comfort. Angle the lamp so the light reaches your eyes naturally without glare. -
Consistency is Key
Daily use is essential. Use the lamp at the same time each morning for maximum benefit.
Safety Considerations
GLOWRIUM SAD Lamps are UV-free and generally safe for most users. Consult a healthcare professional if you have eye conditions or medications that increase light sensitivity.
