The Use Of PER 3TM As A Sunrise Clock

This helps you wake up gradually and complete your sleep cycle naturally. The sunrise process includes the Naturalistic Dawn Simulation, Dawn Pulse, and Bright Light Therapy. The back-up alarm is also included to ensure that you wake up when you first use it.  Please note that everyone has different natural sensitivity to the light in the morning. More sensitive people need less time to wake up when exposed to the light. Try different settings (e.g. 30, 60 or 90 minutes), until you find the perfect natural awakening time. For best results, use dawn simulator functions for the morning wake-up- For best results, position the lamp on your bedside stand and use the light at an angle to your face over the pillow.
