There are now a wide selection of relaxation audio tracks available. Unfortunately, most of these just offer soothing sounds or music. You might find that this helps you to relax bit if you are highly stressed, it probably won’t.
Binaural meditation solutions have been around since the nineteen seventies. By a process called entrainment, it can reliably put you into a calming meditative state without effort on your part.
Your brain generates electrical signals of various frequencies. In order, these are beta, alpha, theta and delta. This ranges from being fully conscious and active to deep, dreamless sleep.
Each side of your brain produces all of these frequencies, all of the time but the strength of each signal depends on what activity you are engaged in. The aim of meditation is to reach the lower, more relaxed frequencies.
It is possible with traditional meditation to reach alpha or occasionally theta, but long practice is needed. It is hard to maintain these levels consistently, or even to know that you have reached them.
The binaural beat meditation method plays a different tone in each ear. The brain generates an electrical signal which is equivalent to the difference between the two original sounds.
You put your headphones on and you are getting the benefits of deep meditation. You are free to think about your shopping list or whatever, knowing that it is working. The guesswork is taken out of it.
You can’t know subjectively if you are meditating, but with binaural beat relaxation audios, you don’t have to worry. This tried and tested technology means that you reach these deep meditation levels every time.
