Binaural Beats

I wanted to let you all know about something that I swear by: Binaural Beats. For this next #TeamChallenge post I am excited to share this subject with you

I ALWAYS meditate before I do any Spellwork. It helps me focus my mind and energy into what I’m about to do. I’ve always had a hard time meditating because my mind is always going. Once I discovered binaural beats, I noticed a HUGE shift in everything I did. I was finally able to calm my mind and meditate and I was able to focus my energy much better i my craft.

What is A Binaural Beat?

A binaural beat is defined as when you hear two tones, one in each ear, that are slightly different frequencies and your brain processes a beat at the difference of the frequencies.

Binaural beats in a way hack into your brain to allow it to process information differently. They can increase your memory, allow more efficient thinking andante help you expand your retention.

The Science Behind It

There are tiny neurons in your brain that fire off information to all the areas of your body in a complex, and beautifully synchronized network. When these neurons fire off, they create small amounts of electricity that produce frequencies called brainwaves. These brainwaves can be measured by an EEG and scientists discovered that the higher the brainwave frequency, the more alert and awake you are. Also, lower frequencies show the different stages of sleep you’re in.

There are a bunch of different brainwaves scientists have discovered that help your body. These different brainwaves are Gamma, Beta, Alpha, Theta and Delta. Each of these brainwaves are triggered depending on the difference between the tones in each ear.

🧠 DELTA 🧠

Your Delta brainwaves function at 0.1 Hz - 4Hz. When this occurs, usually in a deep sleep, it helps with pain relief, and healing.

🧠 THETA 🧠

Your Theta brainwaves function at 4 Hz - 8 Hz. When this occurs, usually in REM sleep, it improves your creativity, and relaxation.

🧠 ALPHA 🧠

Your Alpha brainwaves function at 8 Hz - 13 Hz. When this occurs you are usually in a relaxed focus state. It also reduces stress, and improves positive thinking.

🧠 BETA 🧠

Your Beta brainwaves function at 13 Hz - 30 Hz. When this occurs you are usually in a focused and attentive state. It also improves your cognitive thinking and problem solving skills.

🧠 GAMMA 🧠

Your Gamma brainwaves function at 30 Hz and above. When this occurs you are operating at a high-level of cognition. It also improves your memory and peak awareness.

How Binaural Beats Help

Research has shown that listening to binaural beats can change how you feel. If you want to feel more active and alert you can listen to frequencies that are further apart, and if you want to relax or get ready to sleep, you can listen to frequencies that are closer together. The binaural beats temporarily change your brainwaves. They are completely safe to use because the beats basically just give your brain a push into a brainwave state that it is completely able to reach on its own.

Binaural beats help with meditation, anxiety, sleeping, relaxation, creativity, and sometimes for me it helps cure my migraines.
