50m of high-tensile fence wire has a contact mic at each end for stereo audio delight. When visited by coal tit, blue tit, robin, magpie and jackdaw, the birds' dancing and balancing render an amplified sci-fi experience. Filmed by Hazel Palmer in Stirlingshire, Scotland, as part of the upcoming Perpetual Eco-Opera project. #EweTube #EcoOpera #Birdmusic
The newest science in hearing shows that natural brain function first processes the entire sound scene before focusing or selectively attending to the sound of interest.
That’s powerful new evidence to support the BrainHearing philosophy that maintains the brain works better if it has access to all sounds in an environment. Give us a call to learn more about @oticonglobal new BrainHearing technology

Do you have hearing aid insurance benefits? If you don't know, we can help you find out!
"It used to be that hearing aids were considered “cosmetic” by the insurance companies and the government. Anyone who has experienced or known someone who has experienced hearing loss knows that even a mild loss can make a HUGE impact in your work and personal life – not to mention to those lives around you!"

New Study of Hearing Loss Among U.S. Adults Aged 20 to 69
Who has hearing loss?
14 percent of adults aged 20 to 69 in 2011–2012
Prevalence of hearing loss has declined slightly from about 16 percent in 1999–2004.
Who is most at risk for hearing loss?
Older Age Groups
Prevalence of hearing loss increases with age.
8 percent of people aged 40–49
23 percent of people aged 50–59
39 percent of people aged 60–69
Men are about twice as likely as women to have hearing loss.
Hearing loss is defined as when the average threshold across four speech frequencies (0.5–1–2–4 kHz) is greater than 25 decibels hearing level. The statistics above are for hearing loss that may occur in one or both ears.

"Wearing a mask can be challenging for everyone. But for the 48 million Americans who, like Franklin, experience some form of hearing loss, it can be particularly fraught..."
Understanding speech is one of the most difficult tasks for those with a loss in hearing ability - especially in the higher frequencies. This is an excellent article by Consumer Reports with some great suggestions on how to combat this problem.
As the article suggests, we've been creating "mask settings" to boost the speech frequencies which has been helping a lot. In fact, Signia Hearing has a built-in "mask setting in their app!
If you would like such a setting, or have Signia hearing aids, please give us a call at (760) 434-4327 to schedule a tune up/training session on the app!

The Hidden Risks of Hearing Loss
Happy New yEARs! Welcome to 2021, we all finally made it through the decade that was 2020 :P
We wanted to drop a quick line, and let you know that we are open and taking extra precautions during this most recent spike: sanitizing all common area surfaces between people, disinfecting everything possible on a regular basis, and wearing masks at all times.
We also wanted to let you know that we are now offering "curbside" service appointments, in-home visits, and remote/telehealth appointments!
All hearing aids are now Bluetooth capable, and we now have RECHARGEABLE hearing aids!
If it's been longer than 1 year since your last hearing test, it's likely you are needing a tune-up. Typically we recommend a "clean and check" appointment every 3 months to change filters, domes, and give your hearing aids a good "once-over".
Call (760) 434-4327 or email us at info@lifeengaged.com to schedule your appointment.
Be safe, and we hope you have an amazing year this year! Let us know how we can help :)
