How it works Sensate works using near-infrasound resonance via bone conduction on your sternum (chest bone). Keep it snug against your chest by laying down or reclining, and adjust the lanyard to keep it in place. The best results, like with most things, come with regular practice. Try at least 10 minutes per day for a cumulative effect to tone the vagus nerve and improve the natural relaxation response.
Get started 1. Using your smartphone, search for ‘Sensate’ in the App Store (iPhone) or Google Play (Android) and install the app. After downloading, open the app and follow the instructions to complete your setup 2. Make sure that Bluetooth is enabled on your phone and the phone is near the Sensate 3.
Exploring the app – the nature of sound Sensate includes a library of musical soundscapes that are available as free downloads in the app – download the ones that suit your moods or needs. To explore the library, tap ‘select track’ and browse the different themes. You can adjust the sound volume for your headphones, as well as the intensity of the Sensate resonance, after starting any track.
Before – make the most of your sessions ◗ Set aside some uninterrupted time – as few as 10 minutes is enough ◗ Put your phone on sleep mode or do-not-disturb to avoid notifications ◗ Recline or lie flat, with the Sensate on your chest – over light clothing or directly on your skin ◗ Adjust the lanyard to keep it in the right place, especially if you’re reclining at an angle ◗ Darken the room or use an eye pillow ◗ Make sure Bluetooth is on, start your session through the app, and relax...
After – what should you expect? Even though Sensate works from the first session, the overall results are cumulative and can vary, over time.
