![]() If you want to be motivated, alert, fully engaged mentally, then it makes sense that your brainwaves need to be in that high-frequency beta, higher than 15 Hz range.īut if you are looking to be rested and calm, then the frequency range would need to be between 9 and 14 Hz. Our brainwave frequencies depend on what our state of mind is, and our state of mind can vary because of our brainwave frequencies. Today, scientists and doctors do a lot of studying on people’s brainwave frequencies. Does it appeal to you, this fun, easy way of becoming happier and more relaxed? The whole purpose of this, the underlying benefit is to feel happier, more chilled, and sharper. ![]() It is deeply relaxing and you can get the same effect of meditating for one hour in as little as 12 minutes. I've used it for a few years and even wrote a review here. If you can squeeze even 12 minutes of your day for a binaural meditation it may be one of the best things you can do for yourself.įor instance, Zen12 is a Binaural Beats meditation program designed to bring fast and effective meditation to the masses. There are benefits to all this – call it brainwave entrainment. This means your brain is no longer ‘training’ itself or adjusting to the two different frequencies. If you were to take one of the headphones off, you will notice the pulsating sounds disappear altogether. This means your brain is busy interpreting the tones, listening for that difference, and then adjusting and responding. ![]() When using both headphones, the sound in your ears will pulsate. But the effect would be reduced, compared to headphones. You could listen through your speakers if your head was positioned in the right way between the left and right speakers and if you were close enough. To trigger the frequency response process, the brain needs to pick up the right and left tones at the same time. When a person’s brainwaves are at 6 Hz, then the person can experience a lot of calm and feel a deep sense of relaxation. This is the binaural beat it is the frequency that your brain will follow along to. So if a frequency of 200 Hz was sent to your left ear and 205 Hz to your right ear, there’s a difference of 5 Hz between your ears. If not, then the two tones will be heard separately in your ears and the brain won’t perceive any beat. Also, the difference between the two different frequencies must also be less than 30 Hz, or equal, for this effect to occur. And this process is called ‘frequency following response’.įor the ‘music beats’ to be noticed though, the tone frequencies need to be below 1,000 Hz. Your brain picks up the difference in the tones, and then ‘trains’ itself to ‘hear’ the difference between the frequencies to which it is listening. The difference in the frequency between the two tones being heard is what is called binaural beats. When you hear the two tones together through your left and right ear, your brain perceives these tones as ‘music beats’, audible to your ears. That means that each tone will be at a slightly different frequency as you listen through your headphones. That’s what the word binaural means – “having two ears.”Įach of your ears will receive a slightly different frequency, all at the same time. If you know binaural beat therapy, you know that two separate tones are heard in your ears. If we introduce an external rhythm that vibrates our body or our auditory system, we will also experience the entrainment the clocks did – it’s called brainwave entrainment.Įntraining Your Brain the word binaural means “having two ears.” These rhythms are present in our hearts, and our brains. Humans, like clocks, also have rhythms present in our own bodies. ![]() They entrained themselves back on the same wall, back to the same pattern of movement and speed of the other clock. He realized that the vibrations on the shared wall were what “communicated” the two clocks. ![]() If he moved one of the clocks to another wall, there was no synchronization. He noticed the synchronization of speed and angles of the pendulums. In the 1600s, Christian Huygens, a Dutch scientist noticed two clocks with pendulums hanging together. These melodic sounds make us conscious of the connection between the body and the mind. We all love nature and the sounds it makes. You can get frequencies that go even beyond these measurements, but they are out of the human audibility range. Low noises we will hear at around 20 Hz, or we can hear up to very high frequencies, such as 20,000 Hz. Frequencies are measured in Hertz (Hz) and each cycle is measured in Hertz.Īs humans, our hearing capacity is measured in hertz too. What is meant by frequency? It is the number of times sound waves cycle between the negative and positive brainwaves or vibrations, per second. The Science Behind Binaural Meditation is Frequency ![]()
