3 Things You Must Know Before Using Brain Wave Entrainment

Brain wave entrainment is the relatively new study of altering brain-states through an external, repeating stimulus to help you achieve your goals, and put your mind in the right “place” for specific activities. Using brain wave entrainment, you can help overcome addition, establish positive habits, experience more energy, fight insomnia, depression, anxiety, etc. The list goes on.

Brain Wave Entrainment Is Powerful

Because your brain controls all of the things mentioned above, it's safe to assume that brain wave entrainment is a pretty powerful tool considering it can literally place your brain in the state that you simply choose for it to be in—and all in just a few minutes.

Ancient monks used to spend most of their time “tuning” their brains into these states by meditating all day long—brainwave entrainment allows you to put your brain in these desired frequency ranges almost instantly, well in a few minutes anyway :-)

There Are Different Types of Brainwave Entrainment

There are different methods of brain wave entrainment, but the most common one is through audio CD's or audio files (such as mp3s). The two different types of brainwave audios are Binaural beats (BB) and Isochronic tones (IT). Binaural beats work by using headphones to

--IT Are Far More Effective Than Binaural Beats

--Below is a list of reasons why IT are far more effective than the other when it comes to brainwave entrainment:

---BB's require headphones—Isochronic tones do not, but you can use headphones if you want.

-Binaural beats rely heavily on high quality sound files because any slight adjustment or compression error could expose your brain to the wrong frequency—isochronic tones don't rely on the sound frequency, but rather evenly spaced audible pulses, so quality isn't a factor—you just have to be able to hear the subtle pulses.

--Isochronic tones are easier for your brain to follow, so the target frequency is achieved much quicker than with binaural beats.

--Total hemispheric synchronization is possible with Isochronic tones, but is not possible with Binaural beats due to the fact that a different frequency must be introduced to each ear.
