In this busy, overstimulating world we live in, meditation has become more necessary than ever to achieve mindfulness and a peaceful state. The relaxation produced through meditation is not about concentration or focus, it’s more about clearing your mind if any thoughts at all.
A calm mind is what will lead you to better concentration, better clarity, improved communication, and real relaxation. The result of meditation is an overall feeling of peace and joy; a more balanced energy level.
About Meditation Audio
Meditation Audio – Awaken the Wisdom Within has been developed to guide you through a meditative state through brainwave audio tracks that are pleasing, and will guide you into a deep meditative state. Featured are multiple technologies to enhance their effectiveness, allowing you to feel at peace.
Brainwave entrainment is a natural synchronization of electrical activity in the brain to rhythmic sensory stimulation, for example sound pulses or light flickers. When brainwave entrainment occurs, your brainwaves will resonate with the frequencies of the sounds you are hearing. Brainwaves are the electrical impulses produced by the brain, and are measured in hertz (Hz) generally through EEG.
When you are exposed to a brainwave entrainment audio track, your brainwaves will be guided to the same frequency that is in the sounds you are hearing. For example, listening to an audio track that is designed to play at 10Hz, which is your dominant brainwave frequency, you will over time begin to resonate with the audio track at about 10Hz.
There are different ranges of frequencies associated with different ways of thinking, doing, or feeling. The five categories being Gamma, Beta, Alpha, Theta, and Delta. Each of these carries its own benefits.
Gamma brainwaves are the fastest, and are associated with cognition, attention, memory, and information processing. Beta brainwaves, which are present in the normal waking state, are associated with simply being awake.
Alpha brainwaves are associated with being “in the moment”, producing feelings of calmness and being present without too much thinking happening. This is most naturally our state upon waking and before going to sleep. Studies show that seasoned meditators have a large increase in alpha brainwave activity.
Theta brainwaves are related to deep relaxation, or the early stages of sleep. Theta brainwave states can be used for mental programming as in affirmations and self hypnosis. People often claim to have lucid dreams or visions while in this state.
Delta brainwaves are associated with deep, dreamless sleep. These are the slowest brainwaves, and are present when our bodies are in deep sleep, during healing, and repair.
How Meditation Audio Works
Meditation Audio uses isochoric tones, or little pulses and beeps of tones. This is the main force behind brainwave entrainment. They are generally more powerful that binaural beats, but Meditation Audio has worked hard to balance the isochoric tones so they are pleasing to listen to and an effective source of brainwave entrainment.
The soundscapes available are neutral or tempo synched to the entrainment frequency. Using techniques such as pitch and music to make them more effective and to embed brainwave entrainment into the soundscapes, never looping them. When choosing the one(s) right for you, it’s important to listen to the samples before choosing.
Bilateral Stimulation is used to make the tracks ultra-relaxing to listen to. This technique moves the 3-D sounds into the audio tracks back and forth. This allows the user to feel like they’re being gently rocked back and forth as they listen to it and delve into a state of relaxation. Overall this is to make the audio tracks sound gentler.
