The states of our Brain

Have anyone seen the movie The Secret? It is a movie about 'law of attraction'. 
Thoughts become things. So, what we think will happen/manifest no matter what we think, if its the thing you don't want or the thing you want the most.

This post is just a prelude. Step by step I'll continue to write about the innermost thing that I want to share. So, today, I'm writing about the four states of our brain(what are the patterns of our brain and what are its characters)

BETA (13 to 40 Hertz)
Characterized by:
Alertness
Concentration
Cognition
You are wide-awake, alert, your mind is sharp, focused.

ALPHA (7 to 12 Hertz)
Characterized by:
Relaxation
Visualization
Creativity
Alpha is also the home of the window frequency known as the Schuman Resonance - the resonant frequency of the earth's electromagnetic field. 
 
THETA (4 to 7 Hertz)
Characterized by:
Meditation
Intuition
Memory
Theta brings forward heightened receptivity, flashes of dreamlike imagery, inspiration, and your long-forgotten memories. Theta can bring you deep states of meditation. Theta rests directly on the threshold of your subconscious. Theta is an ideal state for super-learning, re-programming your mind, dream recall, and self-hypnosis. Theta meditation increases creativity, enhances learning, reduces stress and awakens intuition and other extrasensory perception skills. 

DELTA (0 to 4 Hertz)
Characterized by:
Detached Awareness
Healing
Sleep
Delta is the brain wave signal of the subconscious, the seat from which intuition arises. That means Delta-based programs are not only an ideal choice for their sleep and deep regeneration potential, but also when you want to access your unconscious activity and help that wellspring of information flow to your conscious mind for clearing and for empowerment.


Researchers around the world has developed the audio programs to activate those states of mind. Yes, by simply listening to the music you can attain above brain state's character. I mean you can meditate, you can sleep, you can heal, you can improve you intuition and so on. The benefits are profound since I am using these programs. 
You all may be wondering that the audible frequency (the ones which human ear can perceive) is between 20Hz to 20KHz. Yes you are right but there are audio technologies like 1. Binaural Beats 2. Isochronic beats and 3. Monaural beats. Using these technologies these audio programs sends those waves to the brain and it works at cellular level of our body. My next post will be dedicated to how sound affect our thoughts and the subconscious mind.
