Using speakers while running Delta / Sleep sessions:
When experiencing a sleep session, if you find it difficult to go to sleep or remain asleep be-
cause of the lightframe and headphone wires an annoyance, here is a trick that has proved to be
a very beneficial alternative: use a pair of inexpensive speakers - like computer speakers. The
type where one speaker has a cord running from it and is connected to the other speaker, and
that speaker has a cord that you plug into a sound source. Simply plug that cord into the sound /
audio port of your iLightz unit, adjust the volume to a setting just below the threshold of your
hearing, and then experience a sleep session. The pulsed audio stimulation will fill your room,
gently guide you to sleep and you avoid the inconvenience of later waking up tangled in light-
frame and headphone wires.
What type of lightframes work with the iLightz?
The iLightz unit utilizes Color Matrix, RGB 10 and Common Power (CP) polarity lightframes.
When you purchase an open-eye style or different color lightframe, be sure to order the CP
type.
Recommended light and audio intensity:
Be sure to have the brightness intensity and volume level turned on. When first using your
iLightz, always set the light intensity at a very low level. With repeated use, your eyes will
gradually build tolerance to the light stimulation, enabling you to increase the intensity as you
progress. It is very important to always keep the light intensity set at a comfortable level.
Brighter is not better, unless your eyes and your mind are comfortable. The audio should also
be set at a comfortable level. Having the pulsed audio tone stimulation set at a level just below
the threshold of your hearing is ideal. Louder does not make a session more entraining. So there
is need to blast the audio beats through your ears when a much lower sound level has proven
just as entraining.
What color stimulation should be used for specific sessions:
Color selection is a personal choice. What works best for one individual may not work as well
for another. Therefore, generically speaking, a good way to determine choice of color stimula-
tion would be: for relaxation, meditative and sleep sessions (alpha, theta and delta states) cooler
colors such as shades of green, indigo and blue work well. Sessions for alertness and energy
work well in conjunction with warmer colors, like shades of yellow, orange and red. The color
white is a neutral color and has been found to work well in beta, alpha and theta states.
The headphones make a loud popping noise and the lightframes do not work at all…
You have the headphones connected to the light port and the lightframes connected to the audio
port.
