Like the DAVID Delight, the DAVID Delight Plus provides a unique fusion of audio-visual entrainment (AVE), also known as brainwave entrainment, sophistication, and simplicity. AVE is a technique that uses pulses of light and sound at specific frequencies to gently and safely guide you into various brain wave patterns. DAVID Delight sessions have been thoroughly tested and are designed based on the most current research findings to ensure you the most effective results. The sessions on the DAVID Delight are supported by research studies which include Seasonal Affective Disorder, stress reduction, insomnia, improved mood, mental sharpness and balance (reduced risk of falling) in seniors, and reduced worry plus improvements in concentration and memory in college students. The Delight sessions also include our proprietary randomization process, which helps encourage dissociation and brain frequency tracking of the stimulus. The Delight features larger easy-to-read, easy-to-operate buttons which allow users to select a session easily. The Delight Plus features five distinct categories of sessions: Energize, Meditate, Brain Brightener, Sleep, and Mood Booster, with five selections for each category. It also includes five auto-playing Sound Sync Sessions and five locations for you to store sessions you design with the DAVID session editor. Each DAVID Delight comes complete with: Large Carry Bag White Tru-Vu Omniscreen Eyeset Eyeset Carry Case Stereo Headphones 3.5 mm Stereo Patch Cord AC Adapter 9 Volt Alkaline Battery Operators Manual Differences Between DAVID Delight and DAVID Delight Plus DAVID Delight Plus 5 distinct category sessions 5 sections per category Add up to 5 custom protocols DAVID Delight 5 distinct category sessions 2 sections per category DAVID Delight Plus Features Isochronic Pulsed Tones, Binaural Beats, and MonauralThe audio tones of the DAVID Delight are evenly spaced, are of equal pitch, and are turned on and off at a specified rate to enhance audio entrainment effectiveness. Sound Sync SessionsEach category also has a Sound Sync Session to turn your music into an intriguing light show. All sessions include HRV and begin with a 3-stage process to enhance dissociation. Soft-OffThe gradual lowering of the lights and tones at the end of the session prevents you from being startled by abrupt volume and brightness changes. Soft-Off ensures that relaxation and other benefits carry over, even after a session has ended. Easy-To-Find Power, Intensity, and Volume ButtonsThe buttons are raised so that you can make the necessary adjustments easily and quickly, even with your eyes closed. Battery Power IndicatorAt a quick glance, you can tell if your battery has enough power to run your session. New eyeset technology allows for much longer battery life. Night-vue AbilityAllows the user to see the session select buttons in the dark at bedtime or at night. About BrainWave Frequencies The DAVID Delight uses flashing lights and pulsing tones to guide your brain into various brainwave states. These brainwave states are typically grouped into four different categories. Beta, Alpha, Theta, and Delta. Each one is associated with a specific state of mind. Beta 12+ Hz - Awake/alertBeta waves are quick, low-amplitude waves of 14 to 40 times per second (Hz). Beta brainwave patterns are generated naturally when in an awake, focused, and alert state of consciousness. Alpha 8-12 Hz - RelaxedAlpha Waves are between 8 and 13 Hz and occur during sensorial rest (eg. when the eyes are closed), intellectual relaxation, deep relaxation, or meditation. Theta 5-7 Hz - Falling asleepTheta Waves are between 4 and 8 Hz and are commonly referred to as the dream or “twilight” state. Theta is associated with hypnagogic states, REM, and dreaming. Delta 1-4 Hz - Deep sleepDelta Waves are observed when in a sleeping state. As we fall asleep the dominant natural brainwave becomes Delta. Delta waves are the slowest of brainwaves spanning from 1 to 4 Hz in frequency.
