What journey is best for me?
General Health, Energy, or Recovery
- NuCalm every afternoon to your natural endpoint when possible, otherwise a minimum of 20-30 min
- Use the Rescue tracks for 30 min. or longer (or Recharge if you really can only spare 20 min)
- An afternoon NuCalm can replace caffeine, naps, or sugar for afternoon dips in focus and energy
Stress or Anxiety Relief
- For daily stress or anxiety relief, NuCalm any time before 7pm
- For situational anxiety, NuCalm in anticipation of the stressful event
- For maximum relief, use the longer Rescue tracks
Cognitive Performance
- NuCalm before a presentation, exam, game, etc. for focus
- NuCalm after learning something new to improve memorization
- Use the Reboot tracks for focus, creativity, and cognitive performance
Injury, Post-op, Feeling Unwell, Cancer, or Hangover Recovery
- NuCalm as soon as possible and as frequently as possible to your natural endpoint
- You cannot overdo NuCalm, so NuCalm as much as you can until you feel better
- Always use the Rescue tracks for deep recovery – the longer, the better
Waking Up Tired
- Keep NuCalm by your bed
- Set your alarm half an hour before you have to wake up and replace it with a 30 min., or longer, NuCalm
- Replace your morning coffee with a morning NuCalm using any of the Rescue tracks
- NOTE: 20 minutes of NuCalm is equivalent to approximately 2 hours of restorative sleep
Trouble Falling or Staying Asleep
(if you do not have the Premium Subscription with DEEP SLEEP)
- Keep NuCalm by your bed
- Though NuCalm does not put you to sleep, it relieves stress and guides you toward the onset of sleep
- You can use earbuds for comfort in bed and remove them any time as you roll over and fall into sleep
- Use the Rescue journeys to help guide you toward sleep
Jet Lag
- Drink lots of water and add electrolytes to your diet as part of your pre-flight routine; dehydration during travel is common and increases the potential for jet lag
- Be sure to NuCalm before your travel day for at least 30 minutes
- Once you are comfortable in your seat, start NuCalm
- For longer flights, do another NuCalm session an hour before the end of the flight (keep your disc on throughout the flight)
- If you still feel sluggish or are having a difficult time adjusting to your local time zone, NuCalm again once you arrive at your destination
- When you wake up the next morning, start your day with NuCalm and try to fit in a NuCalm session each day you are traveling
