The time you choose to NuCalm depends on a variety of things.

Your lifestyle and daily schedule is something to take into consideration, as well as how you feel on a given day and what you are hoping to gain from your NuCalm session.

You will learn which time of day fits best in your schedule and which benefits you can get from NuCalming at different times of the day. For example; morning sessions may help finish off a poor night’s sleep; afternoon sessions may help get you through that afternoon lull as an alternative to caffeine, and bedtime sessions may clear mind-chatter and help with insomnia.

Our only recommendation is to avoid the Recharge journey at night as these are designed as a “pick-me-up” and may affect your ability to fall asleep.

To start with, we would recommend a frequent interval of a 2-3 times a week using a 20 minute minimum, to really help your autonomic nervous system to balance. You cannot overdo it as it is perfectly safe and very effectively to use daily.

NuCalm is balancing your autonomic nervous system so if you do it frequently to start with, then there is less balancing to be done each time.

The natural endpoint of your session is when you start feeling restless and just “wake up”, similar to waking up from a nap.

Going to your natural endpoint means you have achieved complete autonomic nervous system balancing for the day.

The length of your natural session is an indication of how out of balance you are. Sleep deprivation, poor sleep quality, stress, jetlag, illness, injury are all factors that will affect the length of your session.

With consistent use of NuCalm, you will see that the natural endpoint of your session will become shorter over time.

NuCalm takes your brain waves to the verge of sleep.

The brain wave frequencies reached during typical NuCalm journeys are often associated with REM sleep. There is nothing stopping you from dipping into deep sleep. Your brain will drift into whatever state it needs for optimal recovery.

Lucid or vivid dreams are often a characteristic of the theta brain wave frequency range. The NuCalm technology allows you to linger in that theta-alpha brain wave range (4Hz-12Hz) where dreaming occurs.

The alpha-theta crossover state induced by NuCalm is likely to cause lucid imagery or biographical memories, and most regular users of NuCalm report an increase in dream activity and dream intensity. Additionally, the theta brain wave threshold is the optimal range for creativity, visualization and mental programming. Many NuCalm users are often left inspired after spending time in this transcendent state.

NuCalm can improve sleep quality and manage circadian rhythm dysfunction because it is resetting homeostasis, which is your body’s internal equilibrium and balance in all physiological processes. NuCalm can also alleviate the stress of jet lag, and travel while quickly restoring order to your body rhythms and timing mechanisms. A full NuCalm journey (reaching your natural endpoint) will reset your autonomic nervous system and biological clocks, even after crossing multiple time zones.

Before traveling, use NuCalm every day during the few days before your trip, as it will groom neural pathways, balance your autonomic nervous system and build stress resilience.

At your new destination or upon returning home, use NuCalm in the afternoon, instead of napping, or in the morning to supplement a lack of quality nighttime sleep.

Most of us live our lives at an untenable pace and our minds are constantly cycling through thoughts, lists, prioritizing, feeling time-compressed, etc. NuCalm clears your head and allows you to ‘live in the moment’.

The first few times you finish your NuCalm journeys you are going to be amazed at how quiet your mind is and how liberated you feel from the “monkey mind” patterns we get stuck in.

You will feel balanced, in control, able to listen and respond appropriately, and manage your emotions with ease. This is actually the way we are designed to live – aware of what is happening in the moment. The more you use NuCalm, the more this reality will persist in your life.

Most NuCalm users report they feel a sense of calm, control, confidence, and clarity after NuCalm. Your mental acuity is enhanced after NuCalm because of the saturation of oxygen-rich blood flow to your prefrontal cortex and frontal lobe (cognition centers in your brain). You will experience a better night’s sleep because NuCalm grooms your GABAergic system and primes you for more efficient sleep.

The NuCalm neuroacoustic software is layered with musical schematics that are specifically created and engineered to complement the pacing effects of the underlying physics and mathematical models.

Each disc has approximately 2-4 hours of “energy.” Once you remove the disc, it is “dead,” and cannot be reused. Many people do keep the disc on for the remainder of the day/night to obtain the residual calming effects of the disc.

NuCalm is very safe, and there are no contraindications for NuCalm.

Individuals with claustrophobia may not feel comfortable wearing the light-blocking eye mask. We recommend keeping your eyes uncovered if you feel uneasy with the eye mask on.

People of any age can use NuCalm. However some children may have trouble lying still for over 20 minutes to gain the full benefit.

With over a million NuCalm uses worldwide, there has not been any officially reported adverse events. Most people experience positive side effects, such as increased energy, improved sleep quality and an overall reduction in stress.

Yes. The natural components of NuCalm won’t interact with your medication. Unless explicitly told to avoid NuCalm, there is no concern.
