Start feeling better now. "After a week with the goLITE, my wife happily announced that her 'summer husband' had returned." "I feel great: more energy, more positive and optimistic, more like the person I am in the summer." We couldn't have said it better. These are real quotes from real people who improved their moods and beat the winter blues using light. And you can too. Light is nature's stimulant. The upbeat feeling you get on a bright sunny day is no accident-it's the result of light triggering our bodies to release "active" hormones, and we feel great. Winter can be a challenge for many because the shorter days and longer nights leave us simply "light-deprived". Without the normal light stimulation, we often feel down, lethargic or sad. Light therapy provides a natural boost that helps you feel better, increases energy and even helps you sleep. Using the right wavelength of light, you can trigger your active hormones naturally, boosting your mood and overcoming those down feelings, whatever the season. Blue light is the key. Researchers have learned that receptors in our eyes convert the blue light from the summer sky into the chemicals our bodies need to be active and energetic. We don't get this light in the winter, and indoor light doesn't replace this color, which is why our mood, energy and sleep patterns suffer. Twice as effective. The goLITE is the newest breakthrough in light therapy that provides just the blue light our bodies need (we call it BLUEWAVE technology). Studies have shown that low-intensity blue light (470 nm, like that from the goLITE) is twice as effective at managing our body clocks compared to other sources of light. As little as 15 Minutes per day. Using light therapy fits easily into your normal daily routine. You can do it while eating breakfast, exercising or getting ready in the morning.
For individuals suffering from the seasonal mood disorder known as the "winter blues," the goLITE BLU Light Therapy Device from Philips offers natural, affordable relief. The goLITE BLU features the cutting-edge BlueWave light therapy technology, offering the most effective, natural treatment for winter blues and eliminating the need for artificial stimulants or drugs. And with its easy-to-use functionality and a lightweight, portable design, the goLITE Blu can go wherever you need it--at home, in the office, or on travels.

Treat Winter Blues Naturally
Scientific research has shown that the natural rhythms of our bodies are regulated by light. Our exposure to sunlight in the winter, especially in more northern areas, is significantly reduced. For some individuals, this reduction in sunlight exposure can result in a mood disorder commonly known as the "winter blues," which can result in reduced energy, low moods, and disrupted sleep patterns.
Research has shown that light therapy use, even for as little as 15 minutes a day, can significantly reduce these symptoms by providing your body with the required amount of light exposure otherwise lacking during the darker months of the year. The goLITE BLU effectively mimics the natural patterns and spectrum of sunlight that our bodies need most. And best of all, the goLITE BLU provides a natural and affordable method of treating winter blues without using artificial stimulants or drugs.
Cutting-Edge BlueWave Technology
With 20 years of experience in light box technology, Philips offers the most cutting-edge and effective technology for treating winter blues with BlueWave technology. With this technology, the goLITE BLU provides blue light, which has been shown to be twice as effective as white light in influencing our natural body clocks. With BlueWave technology, the goLITE BLU is not only more effective than white-light light boxes, but it also offers far less intense light, which reduces the risk of eyestrain or headaches that can be associated with the glare of more intense light boxes.
The goLITE BLU also features a wider field of light than other light boxes, which means that you can work, watch TV, read, or eat meals while using the light box, rather than having to sit close and directly in front of it.
Easy to Use, Compact, and Portable
The goLITE BLU features an easy-to-use touch screen and a digital, backlit clock with a timer so you can set the light box to your preferred wake-up time, allowing you to wake up more naturally and more refreshed. Use the touch screen to adjust the light intensity to your particular needs.
At just 5-1/4 x 5-1/2 x 1 inches (WxHxD), the goLITE BLU is compact and unobtrusive, allowing it to fit easily in your bedroom or your office space. It folds down easily, and because it's powered by a rechargeable battery (included), the goLITE BLU is easy to take wherever you need it.
The goLITE BLU is covered by a two-year warranty.
