Learning — a calm state for preparation
The DAVID device is a portable, non-invasive audio-visual device that offers short, few-minute-long programs. Many people use it to get into the right mindset before studying, and to unwind afterward.
The effectiveness of learning is primarily supported by good time management, regular breaks, physical activity, and sufficient sleep. The Agytréner can add a simple, pleasant relaxation element to this routine.
The role of stress
When the brain perceives stress, it reduces blood flow to the cerebral cortex and increases it in the body, supporting the body’s “fight or flight” response. This was extremely useful for our ancestors during evolution, but it doesn’t help us in the present when we want to study. Under stress, brain activity decreases, with greater alpha and theta activity becoming characteristic — similar to how the brains of people with ADHD function. This results in the learner becoming more distractible, impulsive, and hyperactive. Naturally, none of these help with learning or exam preparation, since they only further increase stress.
An opportunity for development
DAVID devices offer various options for development: energizing, meditation, brain-boosting, sleep, and better wellbeing. These programs are preceded by thorough testing and are supported by numerous research findings.
- The Delight Pro is equipped with large, easy-to-read, and simple-to-operate buttons, making it extremely user-friendly.
- Mind Alive Inc. has been designing and manufacturing these devices for more than 30 years, backed by research and continuously developing its applications.
