The app will walk you through exactly what to do for your first session, so you don't need to memorize anything here. But for whenever you need a quick reference, let's get familiar with how your device wakes up, charges, and communicates with you. The Dock
If you are reading this before your very first session, don't worry about memorizing these steps. We will guide you through an interactive, step-by-step setup right in the app. However, if you're reading this after your session, it is completely normal to wonder, “Did I actually
When starting with a neurostimulation device like Mave, few common questions we hear are: Am I doing this right? Is the setting too high? Is it too low? Because the session involves an actual physical sensation, often a mild tingling or warmth, it is entirely natural to wonder what the
If you are looking at your headset right now and negotiating reasons to skip today's session, we've been there too. Data consistently shows that the middle of the first week is the exact point where new routines face the highest failure rate. Let's take
Our natural instinct with anything good for us is to assume that more is better. If 20 minutes is helpful, an hour should be life-changing. If five days a week yields results, seven days must be the ultimate goal. However, neurostimulation (the tech underlying your Mave headset) does not follow
If you are in the middle of a session and your app suddenly alerts you that the session has been paused due to "Contact Loss" or "Headset Loose", you might wonder if you did something wrong. You didn't. This is a built-in feature designed
Life rarely gives you a perfectly uninterrupted 20 minutes. A call comes in, the doorbell rings, or you just need to adjust the headset. You can pause the session using the Mave app at any time, but because active neurostimulation is involved, pausing works a bit differently than hitting stop
Congratulations on completing your first session. Starting a new habit, especially one involving a new technology, takes a bit of a leap. You’ve taken that step, and we are thrilled to have you here. What You Might Have Felt During your session, you might have felt a mild tingling,
In January 2023, we lost a dear friend to depression. We were left with painful questions. What went wrong? Why do current interventions fail so many? That experience pushed us to look closely at how broken and outdated most solutions still are. What started as personal loss turned into a
Here is a quick primer on safety aspects linked to tDCS-the technology powering your Mave headset. Is tDCS Safe? Short answer: Yes-when used within established research protocols, tDCS is considered safe and well tolerated. Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive technique that has been studied for more than
Our nervous system is the control center for all physical and psychological functions, comprising the brain, spinal cord, nerves, and neurotransmitters. Neurostimulation (Neuromodulation) refers to various techniques, both invasive and non-invasive, used to modulate the nervous system. The goal is to improve an individual's quality of life by
We all experience stress, which is globally on the rise. For years, measuring stress relied on subjective self-reports. Researchers have long sought an objective measure, and Heart Rate Variability (HRV) has emerged as a promising indicator, reflecting how your nervous system regulates the body. What is Heart Rate Variability (HRV)

Rachel, a 28-year-old living in a metropolitan city, is constantly juggling work, loved ones, chores, hobbies, and health. Like many of us, her life is a constant flurry, leading to overwhelm and tiredness. Stress is a natural response to life's challenges. Usually, our body recovers once the challenge

When we talk about "focus," we're describing an experience: staying engaged and following through on a task. This experience is driven by two core brain capacities: attention and working memory. How the Brain Focuses The brain is constantly filtering information: deciding what to let in and
