This mode uses the same full spectrum colours as the Balancing mode, with the
addition of light pulsations at the Gamma brainwave frequency of 40Hz. Gamma
brainwaves' function is still not fully understood, but they are generally
associated with high levels of cognitive functioning. Ongoing research indicates
that Gamma pulsations may contribute to improving cognitive functions, for example, in the
case of Alzheimer’s disease
. Although the Gamma mode could be especially useful for seniors
experiencing a decline in mental ability, it also can be enjoyed by everyone looking for a
cognitive boost. Because the Gamma high frequency is less perceptible to our eye, the light
pulsation level is higher is this mode. Some
individuals prefer to have Gamma mode in
operation all day, adjusted to their preference setting.
The Gamma mode starts with the colour indigo-blue.

This mode delicately lulls you towards a deep and restful sleep. Creating a soft and
soothing mood, it can also be beneficial in case of insomnia.
It features slow colour transitions ranging from amber to turquoise, with some
purple moments. It reduces the deep blue colour to levels low enough to avoid any potential
melatonin suppression effect, known to be capable of disrupting our circadian rhythm. The
Evening Mode integrates Delta brainwaves of deep sleep (1-4Hz).
The Evening mode starts with the colour green.
This mode focuses on a soft amber colour, with prolonged, nearly imperceptible
variations. Designed to transform the SensoSphere into a night light, it eliminates
any trace of the blue colour known to disrupt the circadian rhythm through its
suppression
of melatonin, our “sleep hormone.”
The NightLite mode has its
brightness adjustment, separate from that of the other modes, which you will generally want to set
to much lower levels for night use. The NightLite mode is ideal as a comforting lullaby of light for
toddlers.
The NightLite mode starts with low-brightness colour amber.
