Binaural Beats â?? Brain Wave Entrainment

You must have heard of binaural beat frequencies. Neurophysiologists have used this for cognitive and neurological research. Ordinary people can also benefit from this discovery by Heinrich Wilhelm Dove way back 1839 as you’ll see in a little while.

A little about sound waves.

A sound wave is produced when an object moves back and forth for more than 20 times per second (the lower threshold of human hearing). Imagine when you fan yourself in a hot summer day, the number of times the fan completes a cycle – from the starting point all the way in one direction then going back in the reverse direction and back to the starting point – in one second is called the frequency or cycles per second. We cannot hear sound waves from the fan because we cannot attain the lowest frequency that our ears can hear.

The upper threshold in which our ears can hear is 20,000 cycles per second. We may not be able to hear that frequency because as the frequency nears the extremes, our sensitivity for those frequencies also diminishes.

Brain Waves

Different brain activities produce different brain waves. Depending on our activity; walking, reading, having a conversation, dreaming, etc., our brains produces different brain waves in the range between less than one cycle per second up to 40 cycles per second.

When you are in deep sleep or delta sleep, your brain waves produces .5 cycles per second up to 4 cycles per second. This is the stage where most body repair or healing takes place.

The theta state, 4 cycles per second to 8 cycles per second occurs just before we go to deep sleep. This is the state where most meditation practitioners try to lengthen because of the many benefits that this state can bring to our learning abilities, cognitive abilities and so on.

The state before theta is alpha where you are in a relaxed and a little alert state. Our brain produces 8 to 14 cycles per second of brain waves.

The alert state or fully awake state is the beta. 14 to 30 cycles per second are produced by the brain waves in this state.

Binaural Beats

When our ears hear different frequencies from our ears, our brain resonates to the difference in frequency and keeps in step in that frequency. If for you have a headphone and the right channel produces a tone of 200 cycles per second and the left channel produces 197 cycles per second, our brain resonates to the difference – 3 cycles per second. This means that if your brain was in a certain brain wave pattern say the theta state, your brain will shift to the delta state if it would resonate to a 3 cycles per second binaural beat. This is called brain entrainment of frequency following response.

Usefulness

Several people have designed binaural beats to help people achieve a desired state. For example, if you need healing; physically or emotionally; a binaural tone designed to bring you to the delta state is produced.

Some binaural beats are designed to give you a restful sleep. It takes you from the beta state, alpha, theta and then to delta. A comfortable mattress bed plus binaural beats can give you better and restful sleep which can relieve us of stress, anxiety or depression which we all need to rejuvenate us for another day of activities.

The Healing $13.98 Relatively unknown before their collaboration with Ghostface Killah on the song “Milk ‘Em” in 2005, Strange Fruit Project, the group of three MCs (S1 doubles as a producer, though much of that responsibility is taken over by guests on The Healing) also found a fan in the Roots’ ?uestlove (which proved useful for Okay Player advertisements, of which they received a fair amount) and were able to distribute their music to a larger audience with the release of 2006′s The Healing. Mr. Thompson had valid reasons for being so complimentary about them, and the impressive assortment of featured artists on The Healing (Erykah Badu, Jake One, and both Little Brother and 9th Wonder) also attests to the group’s talent, and SFP are certainly deserving of this recognition. Instead of expanding the boundaries of hip-hop (either lyrically or musically), Strange Fruit Project look to bring the Native Tongues style back, which means that there are lots of nice, jazzy beats with socially conscious lyrics. S1, who also plays many of the instruments on the album, grew up playing piano in church, and that kind of gospel-inspired key work is found throughout the entire album (not to mention the many references, often in the form of brief, soliloquy-like skits about looking for God), but there are also the requisite synths and drum machines needed to make a nice clean beat. While the production is not particularly experimental, it’s always good, and it swerves away from predictable on tracks like “Pinball,” with its video-game beat and lyrics, “Get Live” (possibly because of Badu’s contributions), and the eerie bonus track, “After the Healing….” The rhymes are the general mix of gentle boasting about skills, problems in life, and perseverance found on so many albums of this sort, but all three SFP MCs (besides S1 there’s also Myth and Myone, who has a delivery that is sometimes similar to Dré from OutKast) do a good job of not repeating the same tired verses. They’re thoughtful, introspective, and intelligent, which then makes the one party track on the record, “Cali Cruisin,” seem a little out of place. The Healing is an album of solidly good hip-hop, nothing that really will blow any underground fans away, but absolutely enough to keep them listening. ~ Marisa BrownOkay Player advertisements, of which they received a fair amount) and were able to distribute their music to a larger audience with the release of 2006′s The Healing.
