Discover The RoXiva rX1
Therapeutic and Cognizance Device in Personal Sessions or in Group Gatherings
The RoXiva rX1 uses 16 white & warm LED lights that flicker in sequences aligned with natural brainwave rhythms and frequencies.
Combined with sound frequency and sometimes body vibration, this provides a intensely immersive experience and encourages the brain to "entrain"—which means to synchronize—to the rhythms and frequencies chosen relative to your intent, eg. calm, relaxation, expansion and or inspiration.
Depending on the program, it can guide you into states like alpha (relaxed), theta (deep meditation or dreamlike), or even gamma (deepened & expansive awareness). Because it’s non-invasive, you stay in control—you can simply allow the light, frequency and experience to support and guide you, or stop when you wish.
Often referred to as a hypnagogic light machine or audio-visual brainwave entrainment device. The many programs provided within the Roxiva are expertly crafted with extensive knowledge. This expertise guides the brain’s neural activity, this activity/entrainment then provides the intended effects dependent on the individual’s physical and mental state.
By altering frequency, you can alter your state of being,
by calming the nervous system, settling the overactive mind, supporting cognitive flow and so much more.
In addition to this device, integrating other therapeutic processes can bring an effective application to a desired intention and or outcome like releasing, managing and resourcing, not just mentally but also, emotionally, physically and energetically.
The sessions with the device by itself, span from calming, meditative excursions to potent drug-free hallucinogenic journeys comparable to plant medicines like Ayahuasca, or other consciousness altering substances like MDMA, Ketamine and more, this is offered to assist those who feel the need to experience an expanded state of conciousness, experiencing something about themselves that has been hidden or unacknowledged. The use of these programs become a safe and supportive way to experience these aspects without ingesting substances and experiencing unwanted side effects.
Wether you are going through medical treatments, have a sensitive digestive system or other body burdens, have drug testing for your work or career and or are simply not sure wether the use of psychedelics is wise for you, this can be a helpful alternative in a mindful, knowledgeable and integral environment.
Light and frequency therapy involves engaging the mind just as we do with our physical body. Similar to how the body becomes stiff and inflexible without exercise, our brain functions in a similar manner. The use of light and frequency therapies serve as a healthy option to support our needs. The mental, emotional, physical, energetic/spiritual aspects...including our nervous system and gut/brain axis, is a complex system that can regenerate itself, rejuvenate and balance into states sometimes never before experienced.
Creating a controlled chaos within this system and then removing and reframing it, fosters the potential for our systems to release the old and rebuild into a different way. This principle is known as recapitulation and or hormesis, the ability to adapt to circumstances, events and experiences. This includes the impactful presence our ancestral influences our systems as well.
This gift of resiliency is priceless.
Benefits & Effects of Light and Frequency Therapy
With a long list of benefits and effects, all of them experienced as individual as there are people, here are some of the top benefits and effects of this therapy.
Nervous System Regulation
Nervous system regulation is the body's ability to maintain a balance between the sympathetic nervous system (SNS)'s "fight, flight, freeze or fawn" response and the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS)'s "rest, digest, connect and create" function, adapting to stressors and returning to a calm state. Effective regulation allows for resilience and recovery from stress, while dysregulation leads to chronic and constant level of stress, emotional instability and health issues.
With light, sound and frequency brain entrainment, these states of mind and body, all directly linked to your nervous system can be supported and resourced, bringing your whole system into a healthier state of being. Some other common methods for improving regulation include deep breathing, consistant sleep, spending time in nature and developing body awareness to identify what could use some love and attention.
Deep Meditation
The advantages of meditation are widely known, as it enables us to establish a mental space for unrestricted thinking, separate from the daily stressors of our hectic lives.
By engaging in light and sound meditation, one can attain altered states of consciousness with this device almost immediately, those who have no meditative experience and those that do can land in the frequesncies desired with ease, simply by surrendering to the light frequencies that will lead the way.
When combined with other methods, the benefits can be magnified.
Improve Mental Health & Relieve Stress
Give yourself permission to unwind, release tension, and boost your mental well-being. This is a tool that can help you achieve in mere minutes what would normally take years of practice to master. With stress and anxiety being major struggles in today’s fast-paced world, having access to a system that enables you to lie back and relax while listening to music and sound or being guided, along with proven relaxation frequencies is truly a gift. Additionally, this combination can help you enhance your focus, and imagination, and induce deep relaxation – making it a potent tool for promoting mental health.
Creative Inspiration and Mood Enhancement
Those utilizing this technology encompass creatives such as artist, performers, composers, and innovators, and they express gratitude for the imaginative sparks it ignites. The combination of captivating visuals and transformative states of mind bring forth novel concepts and provoke inspiration. Regularly, individuals attest to a heightened sense of well-being, instilling inspiration and more drive to accomplish tasks. The use of particular brainwave frequencies and the resulting relaxation and transcendent states contribute to this improvement in mental state. Naturally, improved mood translates to improved performance.
Psychedelic and Immersive Journeys
These sessions are incredibly enjoyable and you’ll be amazed by the psychedelic frequencies that can take you on a expansive journey or help you relax in a colorful world without drugs. There are subtle experiences for drifting off into a dream state, as well as more intense ones like ‘Crystal LSD’ and ‘Spaceship Dream’. The most extreme sessions were created in collaboration with music artists, such as ‘RoXiva K-Ketamine’ and ‘DMT-Talamasca Trip’, users often report unique and rare experiences.
Pain Relief
Visual brainwave entrainment has been found to provide unexpected advantages, among them being alleviation from pain. Numerous individuals have reported experiencing relief from migraine, PMS, and chronic long-term pain after using brainwave entrainment. In some cases, improvements were observed in just a few sessions. Under medical guidance, individuals have reduced or entirely eliminated pain that conventional medications failed to address.
Sleep Improvement
Roxiva have created customized sessions that aim to establish typical wakeful brain patterns and then typical sleep state patterns, enhancing the profound levels of brain function wherein restoration, rejuvenation, detoxification, and memory retention occur.
Out-of-body and Awakening Experiences
Enlightenment is a transformative voyage that unites an individual’s connection to both themselves and the universe. This expedition can include a variety of experiences such as lucid dreaming, astral projection, out-of-body experiences, and inner explorations of insight and epiphany. These occurrences are often sudden and intense and can be a part of one’s path to living an awakened existence. Some people have even undergone experiences similar to a near-death encounter, resulting in a significant shift in their perspective and experience of life.
As a death/Thana Doula, this opportunity to discover what may lie beyond our physical experience can be liberating and bring a great sense of peace. Getting curious about your own relationship to what lies within and without can change the way your live and empower the way you invision death as well.
How does it work?
To experience this light and sound therapy is simple. The experience begins either sitting or lying down, as harmonised light and sound pass through closed eyelids and auditory pathways with headphones rhythmically stimulate the senses.
This stimulation can trigger natural phenomena in the brain, including synchronisation with the frequency of the external stimulus—a process known as audio-visual entrainment (AVE). But this device takes this further,
elevating the concept of AVE with uniquely immersive experiences designed to awaken the brain’s deeper capacity for calming, creative and perceptual exploration.
By blending visual landscapes of colour, shape, and motion with intricate sound architecture, this device introduces a multi-layered, dynamic interplay of light and sound. This approach moves beyond conventional rhythm-based reinforcement, inviting the brain into a state of adaptive engagement—encouraging calm, creativity, introspection, and moments of clarity.
As the session unfolds, the brain’s neural networks respond to this immersive environment, supporting a state of deep rest and a gentle detachment from the everyday stream of thought.
In turn, this allows conscious thinking to soften and the inner world to become more accessible—opening space for reflective insight and personal exploration.
LIGHT + SOUND + VIBROACOUSTICS
The sonic methodologies embedded within the roXiva device's audio provide a one-of-a-kind opportunity to elevate light and sound journeys with synchronised haptic/vibration feedback included in a chair or table. This integration translates sound into tactile experience, enabling full-body resonance and offering an additional dimension for immersive exploration. Together, this creates a seamless, multisensory environment designed to support specific internal states and deepen engagement—exemplifying the power of purposeful composition and elevating each session into a journey of awe and wonder.

Brainwave frequencies & brainwaves – what are they
by Lance Carter | Jul 16, 2020
Also known as neural oscillations, brainwave frequencies and brainwaves are the result of synchronised communication activity between many thousands of neurons in the brain. The brain by nature is electro-chemical. And it is the result of this constant interplay of electrical activity that produces our patterns of brainwave frequencies. Which are associated with our mental state.
Brainwaves are measured primarily by an EEG test via sensitive electrodes placed on the head. And the dominant frequencies present during certain states of mind and dis-orders have become well known.
Are relaxation brain frequencies different to active frequencies
Slower brainwave frequencies are associated with relaxing states. And faster brainwave frequencies are associated with more active mind states like creativity and physical action. Listed below are the range of known frequency bands of brainwaves. And included is a brief explanation as to the most common states of mind associated with those bands. One of the most useful applications of this information on brainwaves, is the practice of brainwave entrainment or audio visual entrainment. An example being the Roxiva audio visual brainwave entrainment device.
Do brainwave frequencies constantly change
Our brainwave frequencies are constantly changing during the day to suit the state of mind required for the context we are in. Usually at any one time there is a dominant frequency present. However, the overall brain state can often be more complex than that. There is a type of synchronised blend that creates harmonies of brainwave activity. And a feedback loop from one range or band of frequencies to another. For example in the case of Theta Gamma coupling where one acts as almost a type of operating system for the other.
The standard measurement for brainwave frequencies is given in cycles per second or Hertz (Hz).
Brainwave frequency listings:
The specific range for each band listed can change depending on who is giving it. Below are the most common.
I have separated them into two categories. Relaxation brainwave frequencies and arousal brainwave frequencies.
What are the brainwave frequencies associated with relaxation:
These brainwaves are more common in a relaxed body and mind state. Typically you will be inactive and purposely relaxing, asleep, or in a trance state like hypnosis and hypnotherapy. Although they are often present in combination with higher brainwave frequencies.
What are Epsilon/Slow waves (less than 0.5Hz)
Epsilon waves are most often referred to as super slow, infra low or just slow waves. And they are sometimes included in the Delta range for discussion. These frequencies are a little difficult to accurately measure but are most often detected during very deep sleep. They are considered to be an underlying frequency linked to many others and responsible for basic neural timing and function. And super slow wave activity is reported to modulate communication across the brain of all the other brainwaves.
Stimulation at these super slow brainwave frequencies can in rare cases create dissociation and very deep states of trance or meditation. Although the most common result is sleep. Theta waves are more useful for deep relaxation without sleep.
What are Delta waves (0.5 – 4Hz)
Delta brainwaves are most common in deep meditative states or non-REM sleep. And they are the state the brain goes into during the deepest phases of sleep where restoration, recovery and growth take place. Human growth hormone (HGH) is released during this brain state as well as processes of brain cleaning where toxins are removed. As people age they sometimes lack this level of sleep. And it is suspected that this is a major part of what causes age related disorders such as dementia and Alzheimer’s.
Stimulation at this frequency can create extreme relaxation and a feeling of rejuvenation and renewal.
Typically we sleep in 90 minute cycles of which Delta is the lowest dreamless state. And Theta is the most common where most of our dreaming occurs.
What are Theta waves (4 – 8Hz)
Theta is most common in sleep and also trance and meditation states. And is sometimes referred to as the twilight state.
This is where we dream and get access to our unconscious thoughts, memories and other worldly experiences. Stimulating frequencies in this range can lead to emotional release, meditation states, hypnotic trance and even increase blood flow to the brain. This state can also be achieved in the free flow of idea’s, thoughts and intuition. And this can happen when running, listening to music or relaxing in a shower or bath. The Earths pulse or Earth frequency falls in this range of Theta. Called the Schumann resonance, it is listed as 7.83Hz and can lead to a sense of feeling grounded. Young children up to the age of about 7 have a much higher percentage of Theta brainwaves. And this is one of the reasons they absorb information and learn so quickly.
Theta activity (coupled with Gamma spikes) is also present when memories are replayed and encoded into long term memory during sleep.
And Theta has a reputation for many benefits so is probably one of the most used brainwave frequencies.
What are Alpha waves (8 – 12Hz)
Alpha is the in between state of a quiet relaxed but semi alert mind. Almost like the bridge between our conscious and unconscious minds. And is the brains resting state of calm but aware. Mild meditative states, reading, a present focused mind, and a good mind body connection are encouraged with Alpha stimulation.
In healthy people, this is a common state to go into many times a day. Usually for short periods of time when you are active, or longer periods of time if you are inactive.
Walking in nature or closing your eyes will often quickly get you into an Alpha state.
What are the brainwave frequencies associated with arousal:
These brainwaves are more common in an aroused active body and mind state. Typically you will be active mentally and/or physically and enhanced creativity is one result of these higher brainwave frequencies. Although again, they are often present in combination with lower brainwave frequencies.
What are Beta waves (12 – 32Hz)
Beta is an aroused active state.
This is where you spend most of your day. Alertness and creativity as well as positive moods are common here along with some less desirable states like stress and anxiety. Therefore relief from anxiety can be found by entraining to lower frequencies like Alpha or Theta.
Beta is an outwardly focused state of mind compared to the lower frequencies that are more inwardly focussed.
Stimulation with these frequencies of brainwave can result in attentiveness, focus and problem solving to name a few.
Within the Beta range are levels common to readiness at the lower end, to active engagement in the middle, and excitement or stress at the higher end. Too much time spent here can be tiring and uses a lot of energy. Too little time here can lead to a low mood or depression.
The low end of this Beta range is also called Sensory Motor Rhythm (SMR) that is characterised as 12 – 15Hz. And this is considered an idling frequency of the brain. IE: A type of readiness for either going higher or lower in an instant.
What are Gamma waves (32 – 100Hz or more)
Gamma brainwaves are the fastest brainwave frequencies currently measurable with any accuracy. And are only recently becoming more important and measurable in research. Because improvements in EEG equipment has become more able to separate them from brain ‘noise’ caused by body movements and other interference.
These frequencies are fast but subtle. And are involved in many of our day to day functions including sleep, memory consolidation, and dream processes.
Long term meditators have been found to have higher amounts of Gamma in their brains. Leading to speculation that Gamma is an important part of higher conscious awareness, cognitive ability and more kindness and love based states. Gamma is also present in higher amounts during processes such as lucid dreaming.
Gamma is even in studies currently for it’s potential to improve cognitive function and possible even reverse or halt age related cognitive decline such as Alzheimer’s.
What are Hyper-gamma and Lambda waves (100hz + and 200Hz +)
These terms are rarely used and often this range of frequencies are included in the Gamma range. They are very hard to measure but some reports refer to them as being the source of loving kindness, empathy and high awareness states.
Again these benefits are usually included in the Gamma range but experience in creating sessions for people that include this level of stimulation has produced some quite dramatic results.
A summary of brainwave frequencies
In summary, your moment to moment state is naturally linked to your brainwave frequencies and patterns. An imbalance or over stimulation in one range can create a number of mental challenges ranging from ADHD to anxiety.
There is a growing body of research and knowledge to suggest that stimulation can and does help people correct imbalances. Resulting in a kick start to parts of the brain. Examples of such stimulation being audio visual brainwave entrainment technologies and neurofeedback practices.
And then there is the more fun centred entertainment and inner journeys that can be experienced. Particularly with Roxiva psychedelic brainwave entrainment. This is where photic light based stimulation of brainwave frequencies known to cause visual displays of colour, pattern and movement are combined with music to create a drug free psychedleic trip. And that, is another subject entirely.
