Binaural Beats For Relaxation

Beta Brain Waves When the brain is actively engaged in mental activities it produces beta brain waves - these are the fastest brain waves and range from 15 - 40 cycles per second. If you are engaged in an exciting conversation, solving a puzzle or writing a document then your brain is in the Beta state.

Alpha Brain Waves Alpha brain waves are slower, they range from 9 to 14 cycles per second. You might go into this state when you are relaxing right after completing an important task or if you are taking a walk in the park on your lunch break at work.

Theta Brain Waves The frequency rate of Theta brain waves is normally between 4 and 8 cycles per second. If you've ever been driving for a while and can't remember the last five miles, then you were probably in the Theta state. Sometimes you can slip into this state when you are cleaning your teeth or reading a book, or when you do things on "automatic pilot". When you are hypnotized your brain is in the theta state and you are very receptive to suggestions.

Delta Brain Waves The final brainwave state is Delta when the frequency rate of brain waves in between 1.5 and 4 cycles per minute. This state normally begins just as you are about to fall asleep and continues when you are in a period of deep, dreamless sleep. When you are dreaming your brain is normally in the Theta state.
