Frequently Asked Questions

Opti trains patterns in the brain (the nonlinear domain), not levels, which is part of our patented algorithm. The two training programs are synergy (synchrony, balance in the brain) and Serenity (efficiency) in the brain. We train the skill of always creating balance in the brain (not a state). So whatever level of activation you are in, you will learn to create balance and then you can perform at a high level.  Performing the feedback on our apps requires more focus as compared to a meditative state. The other unique feature of Opti apps is that we will never train you to be like anyone else or to a standard. We are all unique individuals and we simply train the skill of synergy or efficiency. The effects potentially reach beyond sport performance.

During the Audio Feedback, make the music quiet – there are 3 volumes: quiet, moderate, and loud.

During Visual Feedback, make the video run at normal speed – there are 3 speeds: normal, slow, and stopped

The music quiets and the videos run normal speed when you have synergy (or serenity) in your brain. There is no strategy or method. In fact, the more you try to force it to happen, the more difficult it will become. Your subconscious knows what you want to do. The more you “let it happen”, the more successful you will be.

We suggest training 10-20 minutes daily, especially just prior to your sporting event, performance, board meeting, etc., or while you practice for one of these activities.

Auto calibrate is the default setting and it will select a difficulty level for you based on your current level of activity. If you prefer to select your own difficulty level use the settings icon in the bottom right corner of the app to turn auto calibrate off.

Start with Beginner difficulty and increase your level once you are consistently successful. We suggest increasing only 1 level at a time. The higher difficulty levels can be very challenging. You may also need to decrease your difficulty level if you change your training environment, activity, or if you add distractions or other similar modifications to enhance your abilities.

The audio feedback is ideal for use during an activity, as you do not need to look at your device to receive the feedback. If you are stationary both feedback modes are equally effective.

Most general issues can be alleviated by closing the program, along with all other programs running in the background. You can do this by double tapping the ‘Home’ button towards the bottom of your iOS device. This will bring up all the programs currently running. ‘Swipe up’ on each one to close them. Now re-open your Opti app.

Here a few things to consider:

• Lightly wet the headset with the Opti Free solution, especially if you have dry skin.
• Ensure the headset fits snugly across your forehead and tucks in right behind your ears – use a headband if you are moving around a lot or the headset does not fit well to your head.
• Ensure your hair is brushed off your forehead and pulled back away from your ears
• Relax! Especially your jaw, neck and shoulders. Try putting your tongue on the roof of your mouth to help relax your jaw. Be quiet and still for a few moments.

We are all different and unique. There is no one best brain pattern. Each individual’s brain pattern will look different. What your brain pattern looks like when it is in Synergy will likely look different (even significantly different) from anyone else.
