When your brain activity moves into a more relaxed pattern, the game will move forward and you will receive visual and sound rewards. Over time, this repeated rewarding of helpful brain patterns can encourage your brain to use frequencies that are linked with less pain and greater calm. As you continue training, your brain will gradually change how it processes experiences such as pain, anxiety, and stress, by spending more time in brain states associated with a calm, relaxed focus and improving your quality of life.
Different people discover their own way of having a good session. For example, some people notice a light, daydream‑like state is helpful, while others prefer to think about pleasant memories, or simply rest their attention on the screen. Whatever strategy works for you will be the right one!
The aim is a relaxed mind, a relaxed body, and steady, comfortable breathing, so your brain can optimise its own activity. Try to stay as still as you comfortably can, keep your eyes open, and allow the game to progress, without forcing anything or trying too hard.
