e-Meditation^®

Everything we are and everything we do is the result of complex electrochemical signalling patterns in our brains and bodies. All the neurons and supporting cells are working in concert to make us feel happy and to make us cope with the daily life challenges. Sometimes this signalling may need a little help from the outside to perform well.

Our e-Meditation^® device uses a revolutionary Triple Stimulation Technology that combines three powerful neurostimulation methods:

• taVNS (transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation) - stimulates the vagus nerve through the ear
• GVS (Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation) - creates electric fields in the vestibular system
• Music-driven CNS activation - uses high-quality audio to enhance neural responses

By applying small (~0.5-2 mA) electrical currents to the skin behind the ears using our proprietary headset design, we create a strong electric field in the neck area. This creates voltage gradients in cranial nerves (vestibular, vagus, and facial nerves), affecting cell signaling and neural excitability.

Unlike simple GVS devices, our unique triple stimulation approach provides more comprehensive and effective neurostimulation, targeting multiple neural pathways simultaneously for enhanced results.

Yes, our e-Meditation^® device has been proven effective through extensive scientific research and clinical studies.

Effective stimulation of the vagus nerve has been shown to activate the parasympathetic (relaxation) response and reduce symptoms of stress and anxiety. Our e-meditation protocol through the combination of vestibular and vagus stimulation can induce sensations that can be instantly felt as a floating feeling, mental relaxation, and some compare it to being pulled into a state of deep meditation.

In a single-blind placebo controlled study we conducted with stimulation and EEG recording, we noticed that the stimulation has a cumulative effect in that it attenuates burnout and induces changes in brain waves similar to those observed in meditators.

A large scale double-blinded placebo-controlled scientific study conducted on office workers in a large telecommunications company call center and also in university students revealed consistent results with respect to attenuation of burnout, emotional well-being and instant reduction of stress in response to stimulation that is significantly greater than the placebo effect alone.

Yes, our device is designed with safety as the top priority. By stimulating the areas behind the ears (mastoids), we are combining Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation (GVS) with sound, and GVS has been trialed across the globe and is generally considered safe when used with healthy individuals.

We have data from our own experience and experiments with healthy individuals that is consistent with existing literature with respect to safety. However, with certain groups of people we do not have enough data and we have identified potential safety concerns. Please ensure:

• I do not have a metal implant/pacemaker, or any piercing/metal between the electrodes and the skin
• I am over 18 years of age
• I have a healthy vestibular system (E.g. sea sickness, vertigo)
• I do not suffer from chronic high blood pressure
• I do not suffer from epilepsy, agoraphobia, any other psychological disorder
• I am currently not on any medication
• I do not have an open wound at the site of the stimulation
• I do not suffer from any skin condition (e.g. eczema, or psoriasis)
• I am not pregnant
• I am not planning to drive or operate heavy machinery during the use of the device or at least half an hour afterwards

With our device we have limited the current to safe levels in the hardware, firmware, and software App, as well as created an electrode that can transmit the current without damaging the skin. If you feel any discomfort using the device, stop the stimulation, try reducing the stimulation strength on a different day and if the problem persists, please contact our customer support.

Our e-Meditation^® device is designed for a wide range of users who want to improve their mental wellness and reduce stress. It's particularly suitable for:

• People experiencing stress, anxiety, or burnout
• Individuals seeking natural relaxation methods
• Those interested in meditation but finding it difficult to focus
• Professionals with high-stress jobs
• Students dealing with academic pressure
• Anyone looking to enhance their mental well-being
• Meditation and yoga enthusiasts

If you're over 18, in good health, and don't have any of the contraindications listed in our safety section, our device could be a great addition to your wellness routine.

taVNS (transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation) is a non-invasive technique that stimulates the vagus nerve through the skin of the ear.

The vagus nerve is one of the most important nerves in your body, connecting your brain to many organs including your heart, lungs, and digestive system. It plays a crucial role in regulating your body's "rest and digest" response, helping to reduce stress and promote relaxation.

By stimulating the auricular branch of the vagus nerve through small electrical currents applied to specific points on the ear, taVNS can help activate the parasympathetic nervous system, leading to reduced stress, improved mood, and better overall well-being.

Our device uses advanced taVNS technology to provide precise, effective stimulation of this important neural pathway.

GVS (Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation) is a technique that uses small electrical currents to stimulate the vestibular system, which is responsible for your sense of balance and spatial orientation.

The vestibular system is located in your inner ear and consists of semicircular canals and otolith organs. It works closely with your brain to maintain balance and coordinate movement.

By applying electrical stimulation to the mastoid bones behind your ears, GVS can create controlled sensations of movement or balance changes. This stimulation can help improve focus, reduce motion sickness, and enhance cognitive performance.

Our device incorporates advanced GVS technology as part of our unique Triple Stimulation approach, working in harmony with taVNS and music-driven CNS activation for maximum effectiveness.

Music-driven CNS (Central Nervous System) activation is our innovative approach that uses high-quality audio to enhance neural responses and complement the electrical stimulation.

Music has a profound effect on the brain, activating multiple neural networks and influencing mood, attention, and relaxation. Our device uses carefully designed audio frequencies and patterns that work synergistically with the electrical stimulation to enhance the overall therapeutic effect.

The combination of taVNS, GVS, and music-driven CNS activation creates a multi-sensory experience that targets different neural pathways simultaneously, providing more comprehensive and effective neurostimulation than any single method alone.

This unique approach allows you to experience deep relaxation and meditation-like states more easily and effectively than traditional methods.

Yes! You can absolutely meditate to your favorite music using our e-Meditation^® device.

Our mobile app includes a feature that allows you to upload your own tracks and use them during your meditation sessions. This means you can enjoy the benefits of our Triple Stimulation Technology while listening to music that personally resonates with you.

Whether you prefer classical music, nature sounds, ambient tracks, or any other genre that helps you relax, you can incorporate it into your e-meditation experience. The device will work with your chosen audio to enhance the neurostimulation effects.

This personalization feature makes the device more enjoyable and allows you to create a truly customized meditation experience that fits your preferences and needs.

No, you don't need to pay for a subscription to use the basic features of our mobile app.

The app is always available and free to use, including access to our core meditation programs and the ability to upload your own music tracks. You'll have access to essential content and features without any subscription fees.

However, in the future, we will be introducing premium content that will be available through a separate subscription. This premium content will include advanced meditation programs, specialized audio tracks, and additional features designed for users who want to take their e-meditation experience to the next level.

The free content will always remain available, so you can continue to enjoy the benefits of e-Meditation^® without any ongoing costs if you choose to stick with the basic features.
