A simple description of what happens when you do a light and sound session

 

You have a lot on your mind and you’d like a few minutes to mentally sort things out. It’s the ideal time to do a light and sound session. So you reach for your mind machine and settle into your favorite chair.

Wanting to relax and reorganize your thoughts, you choose an alpha brainwave session. It’s not too subconsciously deep, just low enough to help you become inwardly focused and tune out the brain chatter.

So you set the audio volume at a comfortable level, perhaps just below the threshold of your hearing. Your mind will hear the entrainment effects of the binaural beats even though you do not have to be consciously aware of them. Next you set the brightness or light intensity level at a comfortable level. Like audio, the lightframes don’t have to be way bright to make your alpha session more effective. Comfort rules over too loud or too brightly intense.

Then you press the “play” button. The design of effective light and sound sessions begin with a small induction period, usually in the beta frequency range as that is the normal waking state. As the seconds then minutes pass by the frequencies generated by the alpha session gradually lower towards your targeted brainwave frequency. This gradual lowering into alpha acts as a guide for your mind to follow.

How? Your mind interprets the pulsed audio and visual stimulation within the brain’s cortex, likes what it hears, and begins to mimic or follow the frequencies being generated. It’s called the Frequency Following Effect and is the root of all brainwave entrainment. So for the next few minutes you realize you are mentally, emotionally and physically relaxed and calm, focused on only yourself, much like the experience of meditation. Without having to be consciously aware of what you are trying to do – which is relax.

Towards the session’s end, the frequencies are designed to gradually guide you back into your normal waking state. So at the end of the mind machine session you feel relaxed, focused and ready to continue your daily projects, your breathing is rhythmic and you are better able to concentrate on the tasks at hand.

Turning Procrastination into Action

Turning Procrastination into Action

 

It takes longer to say the word “procrastination” than it oftentimes takes to begin what needs doing. House cleaning, work-related projects, doing taxes, the list of things people put off is endless. Trouble is we still have to do them.

mind-machines72

 

If you don’t want to do something, for whatever the reason, change your attitude about doing it. Make it fun, make it a challenge, make doing it into something positive because the sooner you complete the task the better you will feel. So how do you change your attitude?

Change your brainwaves. You know, the state of mind you enter when you tell yourself you don’t want to do something – change that! The best way, the fastest and most simplest way for that to happen is by using the DAVID Delight Pro light and sound mind machine by Mind Alive, Inc.

DAVID Delight Pro w/ CES Mind Machine

Here’s how: First, select Session 5 in the Meditation category. It is a 36 minute brainwave frequency entrainment session that gradually lowers your conscious awareness into the Theta mind state for creative visualization. During the session picture the task that is making you procrastinate and ponder ways of making it fun, doable and how easily it can be completed. At session’s end, go back to your Delight Pro and choose Session 3 in the Energize category. That is a 20 minute session proven effective through scientific research for getting energized and motivated. So within an hour you will have the right mindset to successfully complete the project that you have spent far more time procrastinating about.

 

Try this approach and you will find it to be a valuable tool for those times when you say to yourself you would rather procrastinate than do what needs to get done. You’ll do a lot more in less time than before. And you’ll feel damn good about yourself too!

GPS for the Mind

GPS for the Mind

Anyone who has felt mentally scattered, disorganized, downright lost when all they want to do is focus on one thing, just for a few minutes straight, could use a neural roadmap on finding the way. Kind of like having a GPS device for the mind.

Better visualize new ideas

There is one. It’s an iTunes app. Everyone that owns an Apple iPhone can download it for free. This app can be found by searching the iTunes store for MindLightz. The MindLightz is a light and sound application that connects via Bluetooth technology to wireless light stimulation frames and headphones. And if you don’t want the headphones, don’t buy them, just purchase the Bluetooth Lightframes.

Bluetooth mindLightz for Apple devices

What this MindLightz app does is speak to your mind in it’s own language – the language of frequency. And the app contains dozens of sessions targeting all four general brainwave frequency states of consciousness. There are sessions for relaxing, meditating, energizing, learning, committing new information to memory (great for studying!), going to sleep effortlessly, even sessions for ADD, ADHD and PTSD. It is the finest light and sound app available. In fact, the MindLightz is the only light and sound application / Bluetooth system to be licensed by Apple. So if you find yourself in need of a little mental direction, try a mind machine, in particular the Bluetooth MindLightz light and sound mind machine for simple to use brainwave entrainment.

Waking up early rather than sleeping in

April 11, 2016 by MindMachines

Waking up early rather than sleeping in

The other day I received an email question that went something like this: “I have a very difficult time waking up early in the day. I have tried getting into a routine but I find it is just not as effective. Previously my habits were as such that I loved sleeping in. However, now I would like to wake up very early and become more productive. However, it seems like my body just is not ready to get up when I want to. How would I use my mind machine to help me with this challenge?”

Stress keeping you from a good night's sleep?

When you start getting up earlier, make time to do an energize/beta session on your Delight Pro. Use the same type of brainwave entrainment session if you have a DAVID Delight Plus by Mindalive or Procyon or Kasina by Mindplace. The light and sound brainwave frequency session doesn’t have to be long, say around 15-20 minutes and you may like binaural beat frequencies the best. This mind machine session is excellent for clearing away sleepiness and the cobwebs making for a great way to start your early mornings. And should you get sleepy in the afternoon, try a quick break light and sound mind machine (also known as brain machine or psychowalkman) session consisting of beta or perhaps high alpha brainwave frequencies.

30 years of sobriety

July 10, 2015 by MindMachines
No Comments

Today, July 10th, I celebrate 30 years of sobriety. It is an accomplishment I never thought possible. I feel the two main reasons for my success are believing in the Serenity Prayer and using my mind machine. The first helped me focus on staying in the moment and the second enabled me to calm down and relax. For those of you who, like me, have an addictive personality please visit Mindmachines.com then get your butt to an AA meeting. Life does get better!

The Best Entertainment Session

The Best Entertainment Session

 

Sometimes I enjoy a light and sound session strictly for entertainment. Usually during a work break, helps my attitude, makes for a nice afternoon.

 

The 7 minute work time-out

The 7 minute work time-out

The best entertainment session is only 7 minutes long. Just enough time for a session combined with 2 songs from my iphone. The session is called “Roller Coaster” and it is very engaging, very action-packed. “Roller Coaster” is contained in two different light and sound mind machines: the DAVID Delight Plus and the DAVID Delight Pro by Mind Alive. Listed under the Energize category, it’s session number five and has no target frequencies.

 

DAVID-Delight_Plus

DAVID Delight Plus

A nice-to-have ‘adjunctive feature’ with these DAVID mind machines by Mind Alive, Inc. is you can activate the Heart Rate Variability (HRV) function and be aware of your heart rate during every built-in session.

DAVID Delight Pro w/ CES Mind Machine

This is an entertaining way for people to just tune-out the outside and enjoy. Obviously. But with all the others reasons for using light and sound mind machines: relaxation, meditation, brainwave focus training, this just sheds a little light on how entertaining these DAVID mindmachines can be.
