  • What Is Happening When I Use a DAVID?
  • What Is Happening When I Use a DAVID?

    1. Your EEG activity is being altered – As the AVE frequency changes, so does the frequency in the brain – it’s that easy! For example, our Feeling Better sessions re-stabilize brainwaves by suppressing left frontal alpha while boosting right frontal alpha to normal levels.
    2. You are being dissociated – When using AVE, you get drawn into the present moment and let go of thoughts relating to your daily hassles, hectic schedules, paying bills, worries, threats or anxieties and stop the unhealthy mental “chatter.” Dissociation involves a “disconnection” of self from thoughts and body awareness, as is experienced during deep meditation. Dissociation begins in four to eight minutes from properly applied AVE.
    3.Your limbic system is being stabilized – Your body is calmed, your breathing becomes rhythmic, your hands warm and your muscles relax.
    4. A number of neurotransmitters are being produced – People with depressed mood have low levels of serotonin and norepinephrine. AVE boosts brain levels of serotonin, and norepinephrine to improve overall well-being.
    5.Your cerebral blood flow is being increased – CBF is associated with many forms of mental disorders, including anxiety, depression, attentional problems, behavior disorders and impaired cognitive function. CBF tends to lower as we age often causing cognitive decline. People experiencing depressed mood usually have lower levels of CBF in the left frontal and prefrontal lobes.
  • What is Audio-Visual Entrainment (AVE)?
  • What is Audio-Visual Entrainment (AVE)?

    AVE uses eyesets to flash lights at the eyes and headphones to pulse tones to the ears at various frequencies from 1 to 25 Hz to influence brainwave activity. The brain speeds up or slows down to follow the stimuli.
  • How Many Sessions Can Use In A Day?
  • How Many Sessions Can Use In A Day?

    It depends on what you are using the DAVID for and what results you want to achieve. Typically people will use the DAVID every day or every other day. But you can use more often if you like. There are many who are using an SMR session in the morning and a relaxing Schumann session in the afternoon or evening. You can use a session before retiring for the evening or run a session in the middle of the night if you have awoken but are having difficulty falling back to sleep.
  • How Long Does It Take To See Any Changes While Using AVE?
  • How Long Does It Take To See Any Changes While Using AVE?

    This depends greatly on how often you are using AVE and what you are using it for…Different people using AVE for different purposes will see varied results. Some people notice results after one use! But typically people using AVE five times per week notice significant results in two to four weeks.
  • What Intensity Setting Should I Select?
  • What Intensity Setting Should I Select?

    When you begin your session, adjust the intensity (brightness) of the eyesets to a comfortable level. A brighter intensity level creates more vivid colors and “sharper” patterns. Be careful, however, not to overstimulate. Children and people susceptible to headaches should be careful to keep the intensity lower. Again, the more comfortable your experience, the better your results.

  • Should I Keep My Eyes Open Or Closed?
  • Should I Keep My Eyes Open Or Closed?

    Often, when using sessions that use an alpha and/or theta frequency (5 to 7 Hz), the user will fall asleep easily. If you want to prevent this, combine a CD (or an audio-cassette tape) of relaxing music with your session, or when lying on a bed, hold your hand up while allowing your elbow to rest on the bed. As you drift into sleep, your forearm will fall. This action will allow you to realize that you are falling asleep. Something in the room which generates occasional sounds may also help to keep you in the awareness zone.
  • What is CES?
  • What is CES?

    Cranio-Electro Stimulation (CES) is a non-invasive brain stimulation that applies a small pulsed electric current across a person’s head. This small electrical stimulus which is applied laterally across the cranium stimulates endorphins, serotonin, and norepinephrine neurotransmitter production.
