places are best. Be fully reclined, if possible.

HRV and Breathing

calmly. Breathe in for 2
heartbeat sounds and
breathe out for 2 heartbeat
sounds.
Refer to the Delight Operator’s Manual and
the DAVID AVE User Guide for more
information.
Start by preparing your space and yourself. Drink
a glass of water before starting and visit the
washroom. Make the area around you
comfortable: have a place to lie down or recline,
arrange cushions or pillows as needed, dim lights,
shut out distracting noises as much as possible.
Follow the Quick Start directions and select one
of the Meditate sessions. Close your eyes
and breathe slowly. You may find that the session
puts you to sleep. When the session finishes, rise
slowly and allow yourself time to wake up fully.
Continue to use the Meditate sessions for the
first few days as you get used to the Delight.
Adjust the intensity and volume settings until you
find ones that are comfortable for you.
When you are ready to try other sessions, read
the DAVID AVE User Guide and fill out the
Personal Profile Questionnaire to help evaluate
which sessions are most targeted to your life
situation.
Your First Sessions
The Delight monitors the battery level and
displays it on the graph when you first turn the
unit on and periodically during the session.
If the battery level is blinking 2 bars, we
recommend you replace your battery before
you run a session.
If the battery level is blinking 1 bar, the battery
must be replaced immediately.
The Delight can also be powered by a 9-Volt
power adapter. Plug the adapter into the
jack.
