Relaxation, concentration and Zen
Widex has developed the Zen™ program – a harmonic sound program based on fractal technology.
Music’s ability to help people concentrate has been the focus of widespread research.
Generally researchers agree that music can affect the ability to perform specific tasks by masking unwanted and disturbing noise.
The positive emotional and psychological effects of music are also well documented in the literature, with most researchers agreeing that music can reduce stress, make people feel more relaxed, comfortable and less anxious.
Widex Zen
Inspired by this, Widex has developed the Zen™ program – a harmonic sound program based on fractal technology and offering a choice of soothing tones and chimes.
In the Widex Zen™ program, the music is based on fractal technology, which ensures that the music is rather predictable without repeating itself. The user has a choice of “musical tones” called Zen styles, and it is possible to further individualise these by adjusting the tempo and pitch of the styles.
Listen to the Zen styles
The Zen styles can be adjusted by the hearing healthcare professional via Widex fitting software Compass.
