Who can benefit from using the ZenFram
technology?
Anyone who is not sensitive to flashing light and would
like the benefits of stress reduction. The ZenFrame technology
in combination with Creative Visualization & Relaxation
(CVR) create a powerful tool to focus the power of the mind
and keep one focused on results in their life.
What happens when I have a CVR session?
With special glasses - which look like sunglasses - over
your closed eyes and headphones over your ears, you are
immersed in a perfect mixture of cool blue light through
closed eyelids. Some people experience colorful geometric
patterns. Your eyes will be treated with specially designed
frequencies and your ears with specially designed music
to enhance your experience and invite a higher degree of
alpha brainwave activity. The light and sound pulse rate
shifts from wide-awake beta to a dreaming drowsy state of
theta as the session progresses. Using the science of frequency
following response (FFR), your brain wave activity will
follow the pulse rate of the ZenFrame system and fall into
synch with the changes. At the same time, your conscious
mind learns to rehearse the changes or improvements you
desire.
Can you give another explanation of
how CVR works?
One of the best definitions of CVR came from a satisfied
client, who said, "CVR is like this: my body is asleep,
but my mind is awake." CVR is a natural state, very
much like sleep. In CVR, you are going to be given information
that you want to apply when you are awake. This is called
a post-CVR suggestion. It works like a sticky note. You
write yourself a little note and post it somewhere as a
reminder. Most people really want to make a change. They
have all the best intentions in the world, but they never
rehearse the change. What we are going to do through CVR
is rehearse new behaviors, attitudes, and beliefs and plant
post-CVR suggestions into your mind, so that when you encounter
old triggers, you're simply going to "forget to remember
by remembering to forget." Through CVR, you will have
programmed new behavioral responses to these triggers. As
your new responses take hold, you are going to be convinced
that you can be tobacco-free, or lose weight, or reprogram
any negative behavior. It's that easy. Isn't that something
you would like to do?
What are some of the outcomes achieved
by using the ZenFrame system?
The majority of users of the PorterVision family of machines
have reported stress relief through deep relaxation, falling
asleep easier, improved memory, improved learning skills
such as concentration and recall of information, emotional
stability, a sense of being calm, increased focus, lucid
dreaming, and increased physical energy. We are always researching
these benefits with our users and partners in the field.
The ZenFrame machines are designed to help you reach your
full potential; however, we cannot guarantee your results
with the use of the ZenFrame system. Please understand that
results will vary from person to person.
How important is the music & sound?
The entrainment mechanism is both visual and auditory. Environmental
sounds and music have been used for centuries in many cultures
to create an altered state of consciousness. Tribes would
use drums, chants, and environmental sounds like wind and
rain to provide strong mental pictures and associations
- the same way people find it relaxing to go sit by the
ocean and listen to waves crashing to shore, or to listen
to a river flowing over rocks. These pleasant sounds are
much more enjoyable and relaxing than one-note beeps or
tones such as those used by other machines. PorterVision
incorporates the most sophisticated sound generation circuitry
of any light/sound device, using a patent pending encryption
process to employ digitally synthesized sound. Each session
is fully synchronized with the light and audio program to
ensure that the session starts and stops with precise timing.
What are "binaural beats?"
Binaural beat generation is a sound feature on all PorterVision
systems. Using two sound synthesizers during the recording
and encryption process and by specifying slightly different
sound frequencies for the left and right channels, it is
possible to induce a third frequency which is the difference
between the left and right in the mind of the user. This
is known as binaural beat frequency generation. The perceived
beat frequency is how the ZenFrame system trains your mind
to be in sync with the paired pulsing lights.
Why are blue LEDs used instead of incandescent
lights?
Light emitting diodes -- LED's -- are state of the art solid-state
devices that convert small amounts of safe electrical energy
into light. They can be switched on and off much faster
than incandescent lights, producing the crisp strobe-like
pulses which have been shown to be most effective at inducing
the frequency following response needed to guide the user
through the brainwave states. The blue LED was picked for
its very pure cool color. Our operational research showed
that users prefer the blue effect through closed eyes better
than any other LED available. It is important to note that
a person who is prone to seizures should not use the light
portion of the ZenFrame system.
Are the cVR session Effective without
the use of the glasses?
Yes. Although the best benefits can be reached by using
the complete system including the LEDs and binaural beats,
music therapy and guided imagery processes alone have been
effective forms of relaxation long before the invention
of the computer chip which makes the ZenFrame possible.
Is CVR safe?
Completely. The two components to CVR?creative visualization
and relaxation are 100% natural and have no side effects
. . . unless you count more restful sleep, a boost in energy,
enhanced memory and concentration, and an overall sense
of wellbeing! CVR cannot make you do anything you morally
or ethically wouldn't do normally. In the history of CVR,
there has never been a negative side effect.
What are some natural examples of creative visualization?
Have you ever driven down the road so engrossed in your
thoughts that you missed your exit? You were in such a deep
state of concentration that you were completely unaware
of your surroundings. That is a kind of CVR.
Have you ever found yourself so enthralled in a TV show
that you did not hear a family member calling your name?
Perhaps, after several attempts, you finally tuned out the
television show and tuned back into reality. This is a form
of CVR.
CVR happens when we are doing what we enjoy. Whatever the
hobby, time flies while you are actively enjoying your favorite
activity. This is because we experience time differently
while in the state of CVR. When Einstein developed his theory
of relativity, he said this about time: When you are with
beautiful people for an hour, it seems like a minute. If
you are sitting on a hot stove for a minute, it will seem
like an hour.
We cannot make anyone do anything they don't want to. If
I could do that, I would make my son clean his room (I would
make my husband mow the lawn) etc...
Can anyone use CVR?
Generally speaking, every normal person is can achieve a
CVR state, that is, people with an I.Q. of at least 70 who
have no severe mental disorders. Therefore, most anyone
can take advantage of the benefits of the PorterVision system.
With your cooperation and a reasonable commitment, you can
expect excellent results with the ZenFrame and our CVR programs.
How will I know I've reached the Alpha or Theta state?
Everyone's experience is uniquely different. No two people
experience the same feelings or sensations while using the
ZenFrame system. You could experience lightness, heaviness,
or a tingling sensation. You might even start to feel your
eyes quiver. You might tear up. All of these things are
indications of being in the state the ZenFrame is designed
to take you.
How does the ZenFrams and CVR produce
effective results?
What we are going to do in CVR is program behaviors so they
are natural, unconscious, and automatic. Do you know how
to drink water? Do you know how to eat naturally? Do you
know how to exercise? So you have these abilities, right?
So our job is not to give you the abilities. You already
have those. Our job is to give you a response to those abilities,
to create responsibility. That's what CVR does. We are responding
to your own abilities. CVR provides the motivation, the
determination, and the drive to succeed. That's what you
want, isn't it?
What if I'm skeptical -- what will take that away?
When you begin to notice that you're creating a new reality
in your daily habits and behaviors, your skepticism will
vanish!
I'm afraid of losing control.
You are actually in more control in the state of relaxation
than you are right now. In the state of Alpha and Theta
while practicing CVR, you have discretionary access to your
other-than-conscious mind, allowing you to tune into your
thoughts, feelings, and emotions on a deeper level. Then
with the help of the ZenFrame process and the CVR program
you will to rehearse what you really want out of life.
Is it safe for me to drive after I
have had a session of CVR?
Yes, it's safe for you to drive after a session on the ZenFrame
system. You will find you feel refreshed, just like you
would if you went on a mental vacation. When you come out
of the relaxation state, you will feel positive and recharged,
as if your entire being has changed. If you feel "groggy",
ask for a drink of water.
What is the youngest age you can work
with? Can you work with children?
As long as they can sit still in a chair for 20 or 30 minutes,
we can work with them. We have worked with clients as young
as seven years old.
What changes am I supposed to be making?
It's different for everyone. Most people see results after
their first visit. Some results are going to be slower than
others. Remember to pace yourself and not try to do everything
at once. Just take it little by little.
How fast should I experience results?
If you are following all the components of the program exactly
as laid out, you should begin noticing immediate changes.
Why do I have listen to the processes
at least twice a week?
Just like athletes need practice to perfect their skill,
listening to your processes will help you perfect the skill
of eliminating unwanted behaviors.
Why can't I use the ZenFrame unit in
business?
The ZenFrame is a personal system and for personal use only.
