Binaural rhythm helps control brain activity |
|
Our brain waves influence how we think and react to everything around us.
They guide us to learning, work and relaxation, but they can also pull us away in any other direction.
Each our activity is connected to a certain function.
When you are in a relaxed state, your brain has only one frequency, when you are awake and focused, it has a completely different frequency.
Is it possible to control the activity of our brain? The answer is yes. There are techniques like hypnosis, meditation and autosuggestions, but they take a lot of time and require a great deal of discipline.
But, newest studies confirm that there is a safer and more efficient way to stimulate brain waves.
We are talking about binaural rhythm, or binaural tones - a simple and effective method that can be available to everyone.
Brain activity influences our lives
Our brain is an electrochemical organ. Researches have shown that brain in full function generates ten Watts of energy. The electrical activity of the brain is described by brain waves.
Brain activity controls our life. Brain waves influence how we think and react to everything around us. Our mood depends on them.
Our brain encourages us to work, learn and solve problems, but it also gives us a signal when we need to rest.
There are several forms of brain waves with various amplitudes and frequencies. In the following table are listed various frequencies (brain waves) and how they influence our lives.
< 40 Hz
Gamma waves
High mind activity, including observation, problem solving, fear and conscience.
13 – 40 Hz
Beta waves
Activity, productive thinking, concentration, vigilance, knowledge.
7-13 Hz
Alpha waves
Relaxation (in awake state), pre-sleep, napping.
4-7 Hz
Theta waves
Sleep with dreams, deep meditation.
> 4 Hz
Delta waves
Deep sleep (without dreams), loss of physical awareness.
Is it possible to control brain activity?
Yes, and people have been doing it since the dawn of time. Many people knew that sound can be used in a purpose of inducing various states of mind.
From Tibetan chants, rhythmic drumming of American Indians, a sound has always had an important role in healing and spiritual exercises of many people throughout the centuries.
Ancient cultures had been aware of positive effects of brain waves long before modern science did.
By researching the use of drums, it has been discovered that drumming frequency was responsible for guiding the shaman into the higher spheres of consciousness.
It is not a coincidence that drums’ frequency, i.e. the frequency that guides the shaman into a state of bliss and extreme relaxation, is about 4.5 Hz, which corresponds with low the theta level.
The use of repetitive rhythm and chants for healing and achieving extraordinary mind states is known to North-American shamans, Hindu healers, Tibetan monks, Sufi dervishes, trained yogis etc.
In India there are mantras and songs specially created for healing diseases. They are practiced by Babas - Hindu curers. Those chants can even be used against terminal diseases.
The newest research has discovered a law that is behind all ancient healing methods. There are simple, efficient and scientifically proven ways of brain stimulation that can be available to everyone!
Binaural tones
Binaural rhythm was discovered in 1839 by a German scientist H.W. Dove. He discovered that when two sounds of a different frequency are heard by each ear separately, our brain “hears” the third, phantom, sound.
Brain then starts emitting that signal, which is equal to the difference between those two signals heard by each ear individually. That signal is called binaural rhythm.
For example:
If one ear hears a signal that has a frequency of 100 Hz, and other one hears a signal that has a frequency of 109 Hz, our brain “hears” the difference between those two signals - signal that has a frequency of 9 Hz and then our brain start emitting that signal. That way, by using binaural rhythm, it is possible to set brain waves to desired level.
Right ear (hears the second signal) Left ear (hears the first signal = Binaural rhythm
How can this help me?
It's simple.
You feel tired and sleepy all the time? With the help of binaural tones you can change brain waves so that you feel fresh and ready to work.
Or,
You want to spend a lot of time in a state of concentration (for example, you are planning to write a book) but your mind is not concentrated. Binaural rhythm will help you to collect your thoughts and start thinking clearly and creatively.
Or,
You just need to relax, but your mind cannot stop thinking about worries and problems you faced during the day. All you need to do is to set your brain frequency to beta or alpha, in other words – you have to slow down your brain.
In order to make this technology more available to a large number of people, binaural audio CDs have been made.
Binaural audio CDs contain scientifically obtained binaural tones that help you adjust your brain waves to a desired level (alpha, beta, delta etc.) Each CD contains a special combination of binaural tones that stimulate the brain and encourage it into a desired activity.
Binaural CDs can be found in the following fields of life:
- motivation
- concentration
- creativity
- learning and exercises
- relaxation and sleep
- meditation
- self-healing
- anti-depression, anti-stress and anti-anxiety
