FAQ’s

There is only so far that science can go to answer this question before ‘magic’ takes over.

Having spent many years researching and advising people on what brainwave entrainment (BWE) and audio visual entrainment (AVE) can and cannot do, it should come as no surprise that I have been asked some pretty unusual questions.

I’ve also seen some dubious and sometimes even immoral claims by supposedly reputable companies. I make claims too. But I try as much as possible to temper them with the advice that ALL results are possible., and some of them are probable. For example.., it is true to say that learning to relax and enter expanded states of consciousness more easily and profoundly can and will positively effect EVERY area of your life.

Have I seen miraculous results beyond the expected ones? Yes.

Will everyone get those miraculous results? No.

There are certain results that almost everyone WILL get. And that is why the majority of people who invest in this technology do so. And there is research to back those uses up.

Just white light. Yes, all of the colours and patterns that you see are a result of your brains unique ability to create colour and form from frequency.
For some people the vividness of the colours is so remarkable that they can’t believe the light is just white.
Roxiva uses state of the art hardware and software to produce unparalleled patterns, shapes, and colours. And these combine with specific frequencies to give you access to beneficial states of mind and body.

The light is designed to work through closed eyelids. And one of the advantages of this is that closing your eyes is a natural trigger to start to relax and leave the outside world behind. It is also better for your eyes.

That depends on the session you choose. If you choose a subtle entrainment type session, what you see will be mild and relaxing pulses of light with some colour and subtle patterning. If you choose a more impactful session, you will see both kaleidoscopic type patterns, a little bit like spinning fractals and mandalas, and images from your memory. These combine to create unique and fully immersive journeys that mimic psychedelic drugs like LSD and DMT. The light produces a layer of vividness and immersion that doesn’t exist in normal experience.

Yes. The main cautions around light are UV and blue light. roXiva LED’s are UV shielded and the amount of blue light is less than most indoor lighting. Also, because they are seen through closed eyes, the eyelids filter out almost all blue light due to blue lights inability to penetrate more than about 1mm of skin. We collaborated with an industrial certification company on a study which gave us certainty that the level of light used with the roXiva lamp is perfectly safe and below what is called the “phototoxicity” threshold .

There are many, but the main benefits are the deep altered and expanded states of consciousness that people go into. This has a number of positive effects from mood enhancement and stress relief, to heightened creativity and spontaneous spiritual experiences. Using roXiva in specific ways is a type of brain fitness and optimisation. The mind responds to ‘exercise’ just like the body does. There are sessions for specific purposes like deep relaxation or creative inspiration. And there are drug free psychedelic trips that will take you on a journey of consciousness exploration. These types of session produce self generated ‘mind art’ combined with feelings of euphoria and rejuvenation.

Users have access to expanded states of consciousness and deep relaxation at the push of a button.

The big advantage with roXiva is that the experience can be stopped instantly. However, people under 18 are not recommended to use roXiva for safety reasons unless a doctor or a experienced psychotherapist says it’s okay (and parents are informed and physically present during the session). This is because although the technology is likely to be beneficial for them too, there is a slightly higher chance of overstimulation or the inability to emotionally, intellectually and symbolically deal with the experience afterwards. In much the same way as ingested psychedelics are inappropriate and too much for someone of that age. 

Brainwave entrainment (BWE) and audio-visual entrainment (AVE) have been extensively studied in the scientific community. While both visual and auditory methods rely on entraining the brain to a specific frequency, visual light stimulation has been found to have a more significant impact on overall brain activity. The photic driving response, also known as steady state visually evoked potentials (SSVEPs), is a measurable effect of light on the brain, as detected by EEG. SSVEPs cause synchronization of neural activity, starting in the visual cortex and then spreading throughout the brain.

Although less common than studies on drugs, studies on BWE and AVE show positive effects on a range of issues. There are many articles on this website that feature various topics and include references to science literature

There is a wealth of information on this website in the form of articles and research. As an owner you will have access to a user FaceBook community. And there is also a VIP user website with descriptions, videos and further knowledge on how to best use the technology.

As a member of the roXiva community you will have access to many years of unmatched knowledge and experience. And expertly crafted and tested sessions are available ranging from guided hypnosis and meditation sessions, to full on DMT style psychedelic trips synchronised to music created by experienced DJ’s and musical artists.

Absolutely, there is no need to but this is a great way to enhance other practices. We have owners that combine roXiva with hypnotherapy, float tanks, breathwork, sound healing, sports performance training, artistic and business creativity, and psychedelic therapy to name a few.

Anything beneficial that involves being in an optimal brain state to maximise it’s potential., can be enhanced with roXiva.

When you first start it is natural to want to try everything. And although there is nothing inherently wrong with this, like anything., too much use can lead to mild discomfort or desensitization. This will pass. Some people can use it more than others and this depends on a number of factors like how stimulated you already are, existing stressors and what you start with as a goal. Always seek medical advice if you feel unwell for a long period of time. The time of day will depend on the goal. For example a stimulating session in the morning can set you up for a creative day.

Most successful research with this technology uses a protocol of 3 or more times per week for about 4 weeks with the same type of session.

That doesn’t mean that less than that or even just one session cannot cause lasting benefit. It can and does happen that fast sometimes.

But you wouldn’t meditate once and declare yourself enlightened would you.
