Gamma brain waves for high mental and physical performance

Gamma brain waves for high mental and physical performance

If you’ve ever wondered what NuCalm Ignite is, what it does, how to use it, and what to expect when you use it once or long-term; then this article is for you. To understand NuCalm Ignite (one of six different patented neuroacoustic software journeys that enable you to access one of your five different brain waves) we will share what NuCalm is, and how Ignite can help you access your brain waves when desired.

What is NuCalm?

NuCalm is patented neuroscience technology designed to give you the ability access your desired brain wave state. Available via a mobile app, NuCalm’s neuroacoustic software offers six unique journeys that map to one of the five brain wave states. Choose the NuCalm journey corresponding to your desired brain wave state and follow the iconography provided on the journey home screens within the app. While some journeys may necessitate the use of an eyemask, premium headphones, and a comfortable reclined position, others can be enjoyed using just a portable speaker.

What does the Ignite neuroacoustic software do?

Similar to other NuCalm journeys, Ignite utilizes patented neuroscience technology, employing intricate physics and math-based algorithms such as a pitch and frequency matrix and non-linear oscillating algorithms. These mechanisms safely transmit signals to the brain, prompting what is known as a frequency following response, so the brain synchronizes with the incoming signals. While NuCalm incorporates music to engage the listener and enhance their experience, the underlying neuroacoustic software discreetly delivers signals to the brain, gently guiding it towards a desired outcome, like a tuning fork.

The Ignite physics platform guides your brain’s natural electrical rhythms to the Gamma wave range (39-41Hz). Gamma is where you activate your senses and gross and fine motor skills, intensify your mental clarity, and increase your physical and mental strength and endurance.

What do I need for an Ignite journey?

  • Access to the NuCalm mobile app (there are many subscription options)
  • Noise-canceling headphones for maximum sound quality
  • A regular stress management routine (Rescue, PowerNap, or FlowState) to balance the effects of Ignite

What will it feel like during an Ignite journey?

Typically, people describe their Ignite journey as being intermittently aware of the musical genre (and Tony Robbins’ motivational speeches when applicable) while feeling a steady increase in motivation, energy, and clarity. These feelings can last for a few hours.

How do I know if it’s working?

After your Ignite journey:

  • You will feel a sense of “firing on all cylinders”
  • You will feel energized and motivated
  • You will feel a confidence boost

Why are there only 15-minute Ignite journey time lengths? What is the difference and the same between them?

Each Ignite journey features a very different musical genre and two journeys feature a NuCalm power user contributor, Tony Robbins, and his proven motivational methods. The Gamma brain wave guidance is part of the last 3-4 minutes of each of the journeys, so it’s essential to listen to each Ignite journey in its entirety for maximum effect.

Ignite protocols

For mental endeavors

  • Use Ignite before starting a project or even your day. Many community members use Ignite instead of caffeine in the morning and afternoon for an energy boost.

For physical activities

  • Use Ignite before physical training or competition for an energy boost. You can also consider listening to Ignite while on a walk, run, or other cardiovascular activity for motivation.

Please do not listen to more than 2-3 Ignite journeys in a day and not within 3 hours of your desired bedtime. Please use Ignite in combination with a regular recovery routine (Rescue, PowerNap, FlowState) for mental and physical restoration.
