Across alpha regeneration
Synthesized sounds take us from the scenarios of the past day into the
oasis of relaxation. Silence prevails, you immerse yourself in a world of
sound. What remains is a ight of thought over owering gardens, past all
walls of our civilization, to this old tree that has put down its roots here for
more than 100 years. It represents the recurring blossoming in the course
of the world. The old man has been sitting here for all his life and tells this
story about the only thing important in life ... love.
Underwaterlove alpha focus
Water is not only an elixier which gives us strength and is an
indispensable component of ourselves, but is also the habitat for a large
variety of creatures and plants. On a trip into the unexplored depths of our
fascinating water landscapes we discover undreamed-of beauty. Immerse
into a crystal clear sea of satin and enjoy iridescent colors and forms of the
underwater world.
Countryside alpha activate
The classic: natural sounds to relax and feel well. Chirping birds and
purling brooks, calm and contemplative spirits in nature, experience a
summer day anytime and anywhere. Created by the child therapist Dr.
Arndt Stein. more information: www.vtm-stein.de

Deep Relaxation delta sleep
These frequencies induce natural meditative states, accompanied by deep
physical relaxation, which may also lead to a recovering, natural, and
healthy sleep. Inner state: Deep physical relaxation is consciously
observed or replaced by recovering sleep.

Beach theta relax
A contemplative walk along a deserted beach, only the sound of the
waves and the call of the sea gulls. You are at one with yourself and feel
the elementary power of the sea. This relaxation classic was also created
by Arndt Stein.

Didgeridoo alpha activate
From time immemorial the didgeridoo has been used by Australian
Aborigines as cult instrument. The overtone wind instrument produces
rhythmic vibrations deeply a ecting the body, thus leading to a
synchronization, so to speak a "reset", of various body frequencies. Let
yourself be carried o by the trance of the musician into the night of the
Australian bushes.

Chanting delta transcendence
Overtone singing is a singing technique in which the partials of a sound
wave are selectively ampli ed and made audible. Each pitch that we hear
contains additional pitches which determine the tone color or timbre of the
pitch. Everyone can experience these pitches in his or her own voice by
slowing down the modulation of the vowels. In the schamanic singing of
many cultures the overtones play an important role to contact other
consciousness dimensions which transcend the usual forms of our
perception.

Bionik theta visualize
"We are not the innovators we think we are; we are just repeaters." Often
inventors have only copied what plants or animals have been doing for
thousands of years. Applying the principles of nature is so common that a
name has been coined for it: BIONICS.

Lovely theta visualize
The ashing ascent of our galactic, great giver of warmth and light - the
sun. A spirited, beautiful day full of live and unique moments. The entire
color spectrum of nature followed by an inspiring sunset on the horizon. A
vespertine, crackling open re blazes against the background of a crystal-
clear night with full moon and thousands of jingling stars. The cuddly
warmth of the glowing logs makes the body comfortable and conveys a
languorous feeling of timelessness.
Asien Highlands delta regeneration
In the poikilothermic areas of our earth the life of man is constantly
a ected by the forces of nature. Where the summer rain falls downhill
onto the leafy canopies of the tropical forests, the fresh high land wind
blows over the seemingly endless high mountain ranges, driving
enormous wafts of mist, there is a place of relaxation for anyone. Who
responds to the call of nature far from the densely populated civilization
experiences the overwhelming diversity of species of primitive times.

Vibrations delta sleep
"Vibrations" is a journey through a world of unheard and yet strangely
con dent sounds touching your inner self. The sound of the crystal sound
bowls of Carlos Michael, starting gently and getting more intensive later
on, creates multilayered vibrations which can be physically experienced.
Experience yourself as a vibrating part of the infinite space.

Unique: many more sessions with synchronized light and sound by
professional authors are available in our Session-Shop. With the free editor
software, 'LaxEdit' , you can create classic impulse sessions as well as
sessions based on any other audio content in the form of MP3. Light and
sound can be exactly synchronized and adjusted with numerous
adjustable parameters such as frequency, color, color gradients, etc ... to
1/10 Sec.
Innovation
The LAXMAN breaks new grounds: the patented LAXMAN glasses can
create every color of the light spectrum. The light is transmitted indirectly
onto the closed or open eye. Interference patterns generate kaleidoscopic
structures in all colors. These structures are programmed in accordance
with neurophysiological research ndings. Additionally, a Ganzfeld e ect is
generated to enhance the experience. The device can also be used in
color and light therapy to counteract the lack of light in winter. In a session,
you also wear headphones to enjoy the auditory stimulation. Contrary to
traditional systems, the LAXMAN audio range also comprises ambient and
nature sounds. But the LAXMAN also creates the classical impulse
frequencies known from conventional mental training systems as well as
Binaural-beats and Hemicircle Sounds, which provide a very special sound
experience. These impulse frequencies de ne rhythms the brain will
happily follow. The device has 22 pre-installed programs or sessions for
various situations that run 20 minutes each. Professional users have the
option to set frequencies and other program characteristics manually. The
expandable memory card provides enough space for a large number of
self-created sessions or MP3 titles. With the user-friendly Session
Designer software LaxEdit, convert your own audio tracks into
psychoactive audiovisual Laxman sessions tailor-made to your individual
tastes.

How does it work?
Basically, the LAXMAN works on simple, natural principles: everybody
knows that it is relaxing to watch a ickering ame or the glittering surface
of a lake. The LAXMAN uses underlying physiological mechanisms which
are known as the ?frequency following response?. The relaxation you feel
when gazing into an open re, for example, is caused by a change of the
brain wave pattern. The frequency of these patterns de nes our mood.
Visual and auditory stimuli may in uence this frequency from the outside -
as can be seen in EEG tests. Over the last decades, this principle has been
the subject of numerous studies. The great majority of the scienti c tests
showed extremely positive results. A profund study with the Laxman at
the Charité in Berlin shows an improvement of concentation of about 14%
and an improvement of Relaxation of about 20% after a three weeks
application. The system very e ectively creates a state of relaxed clarity
and concentration. Furthermore, the receptiveness e.g. for study contents
is increased signi cantly, and the perfusion of the brain is optimized ? this
supports mental fitness.
