How Brainwave Training Works...
"Brain training is the medicine of the future."
~~ Deepak Chopra
Ever wonder why some people always seem calm, even when everything around them is chaotic? And why others are always excitable, even if there’s really nothing to be excited about?
These differences reflect the direct result of the brainwave patterns in their minds at that moment.
Most super-achievers naturally control their brainwaves, even if they’re unaware of doing so.
Right now...as you are reading this...your brain is sending out electrical impulses through your complex network of neurons (brain cells). These electrical impulses can be measured by an EEG machine, and viewed on a monitor as your brainwave patterns.

Your basic brainwaves
The speed (or frequency) of your brainwaves determines your state of mind and how you react to your environment. Basically, the faster your brainwaves, the faster thoughts are moving through your brain. And in the case of your brain, faster is NOT necessarily better.
Beta - Your “Analytical” Brainwaves
Beta brainwaves vibrate at about 12 to 30+ cycles-per-second (cps). They are dominant in your normal waking consciousness, and are active anytime you talk or try to solve a problem. The slower beta brainwaves (from 12 to 15 cps) are especially productive.
The higher level Beta vibrations (above 30 cps) are often referred to as “Gamma” brainwaves, and often accompany high levels of stress and anxiety.
Alpha - Your “Creative” Brainwaves
Alpha’s 8 to 11.9 cps vibrations are generally more dominant when you are relaxed and have your eyes closed. The faster Alpha vibrations occur with focused meditation, while the slower vibrations mark a shift from waking toward sleep.
Alpha brainwaves are the building blocks for higher levels of awareness – and for the highly desirable “whole brain integration” brain state.
Theta - Your “Integrative” Brainwaves
Your Theta brainwaves vibrate from 7.9 down to 4 cps. Many think Theta is only found in the state of dreaming sleep. But a unique and wholly trainable Alpha/Theta brainwave combination is also directly connected to creative inspiration, super-learning, integrative emotional experiences, and enhanced memory.
Delta - Your “Intuitive & Healing ” Brainwaves
Delta brainwaves vibrate from 3.9 to an estimated .01 cps. Delta is the frequency of deep sleep, but is also a deeply healing frequency. In Delta our brains release Human Growth Hormone (HGH) – a natural anti-aging hormone.
Delta brainwaves are also the "voice" of your deep intuition - a skill that is well-known to most super-achievers.
Why slower brainwaves?
Every mental state you experience is the result of a combination of brainwaves. The proven benefits of the slower brainwaves typical of super-achievers includes:
Anti-Aging
Induced hemispheric synchronization offers anti-aging benefits. Dr. Robert Cosgrove, a MD and biomedical engineer, feels this brain state is “an excellent neuro-pathway exerciser that promotes optimal brain performance.” Cosgrove feels regular achievement of synchronization “could delay deterioration of the brain due to aging for decades.” Also the human growth hormone (HGH) produced in Delta offers proven anti-aging benefits.
A study conducted by Dr. Giampapa, an ex-President of the American Board of Anti-Aging Medicine, reveals that Alpha, Theta and Delta brainwaves increase the production of hormones important for increased longevity and well-being.
At slower brainwave patterns, the production of DHEA and melatonin increases significantly: DHEA as much as 90%, and melatonin up to 300%.
Widened Scope of Awareness
Dr. Lester Fehmi of Princeton University believes that induced brain synchronization is the best known method for getting information into the “whole brain." According to Fehmi, during such an experience you “widen the scope of your awareness (and) become less self-conscious and function more intuitively."
Super-Learning
One valuable benefit of sound-induced brain synchronization is an improved ability to learn. What is today known as “ super-learning” first began with the work of Bulgarian psychiatrist Georgi Lozanov.
