5 Things You Must Know About Brainwave Entrainment
by Stephen Pierce


1. The History of Brainwave Entrainment

Years of research has shown that brainwaves not only provide insight into an individual's mind and body, but they can be stimulated to actually change that person's current state.

By causing the brain to produce or decrease specific types of brainwave frequencies, it is possible to bring about a large variety of mental states and emotional reactions.

The benefits of brainwave entrainment - the process of enhancing your normal brainwave state - has been known to many scientists and doctors for years.

These benefits include, but are not limited to, improvements in the following areas: Temporary Pain Relief, Temporary Stress Reduction, Sleeping Disorders, General Relaxation, and Meditation.

Up until the recent discovery of the more effective Isochronic tones, binaural beats were the most recognized form of brainwave entrainment.

Binaural beats were first discovered in 1839 by a German experimenter, H. W. Dove.

The human ability to "hear" binaural beats appears to be the result of evolutionary adaptation. Many evolved species can detect binaural beats because of their brain structure.

In humans, binaural beats can be detected when carrier waves are below approximately 1000 Hz. Here's why: wave lengths below 1000 Hz are longer than the diameter of the human skull. Thus, these wave lengths actually curve around the skull by diffraction and are thus heard by both ears.

As the sound wave passes around the skull, each ear hears a different portion of the wave it's this difference that allows for the accurate location of sounds below 1000 Hz. OptiMINDzation

2. How Brainwave Entrainment Really Works!

"Entrainment" is a principle in physics, where 2 cycles synchronize naturally with each other in order to work more efficiently. Entrainment is applied to chemistry, astronomy, electrical systems and much more - but can also be applied to the brain. OptiMINDzation

Here's how: When the brain is provided with a stimulus, through the ears, eyes or other senses, it emits an electrical charge in response. This is called a Cortical Evoked Response.

These electrical responses travel throughout the brain to become what an individual sees and hears. OptiMINDzation

When the brain is given a consistent, repeating stimulus, such as drum beats or flashes of light, the brain responds by synchronizing, or entraining, its electric cycles to the external rhythm.

This is commonly called the Frequency Following Response (or FFR), and it can be used to effectively alter the brainwave pattern of the audience.

In other words, by listening to a specially designed CD such as OptiMINDzation, you will hear sonic tones that will induce low frequency energy which your brain will attempt to duplicate - or 'entrain' - to.

These frequencies are normal, everyday frequencies found in the EEG waveforms of humans, and in the case of listening to the OptiMINDzation CD can alter brainwaves so that you enjoy increases in:

  • Memory capability
  • Mental absorbency
  • Intellectual stamina
  • Thought power
  • Mental acuity
  • And overall intelligence

3. The Types of Brainwaves That Brainwave Entrainment Influences

The brain is made up of billions of brain cells called neurons, which communicate with each other using electrical signals.

All of these neurons sending signals at once produce a large amount of electrical activity commonly called a Brainwave pattern, because of its "wave" or cyclic-like nature. OptiMINDzation

Researchers and scientists have found that different bands of brainwaves are associated with different mental states.

For instance, the brainwaves of a sleeping person are much different than the brainwaves of an individual that is wide awake.

The speed of a brainwave is called a frequency; which is measured in Hertz. You can tell a lot about what is going on in a person's head simply by measuring the Hertz value of their brainwaves.

Brainwaves are divided into four predominant speed ranges, or bands. The brain is constantly emitting nearly every type of brainwave. However, based on the strength of certain bands of brainwaves and depending on where the EEG electrodes are placed on the scalp, a person can be said to be "in" a certain brainwave or band.

Here are the common types of brainwaves:

Beta (15 - 38Hz) - In this frequency range, a person is fully awake and generally alert. The low Beta range (15-20 HZ) is associated with an increase in metal abilities, IQ and mental focus. The high Beta range (20-38 HZ) is linked to alertness but may also produce agitation.

SMR (12 - 15Hz) SMR (sensorimotor rhythm) is related to body motion and linked to increased focus and improved attentive abilities.

Alpha (8 - 12Hz) - The majority of the population experiences this state just after waking and right before sleep. This range is linked to Relaxation, Stress Relief, Self Hypnosis, stimulation of the Immune System and Accelerated Learning.

Theta (3 - 8Hz) - The majority of the population enters into this state during light sleep or extreme relaxation. Low Theta (3 - 5 Hz) is ideal for Meditation and Sleep Replacement. High Theta (5 - 8 Hz) is ideal for Improved Sleeping Patterns, Treatment of Insomnia and Creative Visualization.

Delta (0.2Hz - 3Hz) - This state is experienced during deep, dreamless, non-REM sleep. While in Delta the body is healing itself and resetting internal clocks. Delta is ideal for Accelerated language retention and stimulating the release of growth hormone.

4. Why Binaural Beats Are No Longer the Optimum Brainwave Entrainment Method!

Binuaral beats are probably the most recognized form of brainwave entrainment.

With binaural beats, a slightly different tone is presented into each ear. The tones then combine in the brain to form a pulse or "beat". The pulse heard by the listener is actually the difference between the two tones. For example, if the left ear is given a tone at 20 hertz and the right ear is given a tone of 30 hertz, then the listener will hear a beat of 10 hertz. And the brain will entrain to that rhythm.

For this reason, binaural beats require the listener to wear headphones. However, there are many new brainwave entrainment techniques being developed, such as Isochronic tones, that do not require the use of headphones and that have actually been proven to be two to three times more effective than binaural beats. OptiMINDzation

For example, Isochronic tones are a somewhat less well known form of entrainment that is much more effective than binaural beats.

Isochronic entrainment uses a single tone that is manually spaced, turning on and off in a precise pattern. This actually enhances the effectiveness of audio entrainment.

Here are three more reasons why Isochronic tones have replaced binaural beats as the brainwave entrainment technique of the future:

1) Binaural beats require the use of headphones or special speaker assignments. Isochronic tones do not rely on speaker assignments, and therefore can be used without headphones or any special speaker assignments.

2) Binaural beats are incapable of entraining the brain's hemispheres individually (because they require both ears). Binaural beats are a disadvantage because many of the modern entrainment protocols used in clinical work currently requires the use of separate stimulation to each ear. This is useful for deep meditation, depression, ADD treatment and cognitive enhancement.

3) Studies have found that binaural beats are not as effective as isochronic tones due to the way brain processes the beats. Dr. Gerald Oster's, a pioneer in the field of brainwave technology, study of binaural beats concluded that the depth or intensity of the resulting "beat" is only around 3 decibels or 1/10th the volume of a whisper.

5. How to Best Use a Brainwave Entrainment audio CD!

To get the most out of your brainwave entrainment audio CD, we recommend that you do the following:

  • Listen to your CD in a quiet area where you are sure that you won't be disturbed. Ideal places include a spare room, a home office, a bedroom, etc. Be sure to take your phone off the hook and clear the room of any other electronic communication devices.
  • Before listening to the CD, you should perform some basic relaxation techniques to get into the proper mood. For example, if you are sitting, do not cross your legs or arms. Sit upright, not slouched. Try slow, deep breathing - concentrating on each breath. Do this for about 5 minutes. During this relaxation time, try to empty your mind and focus your attention on the blackness you see with your eyes closed and the quietness of the room you are in.
  • After your short relaxation period, begin playing the audio CD at a moderate volume. You should be able to hear all the tones well, but the sound shouldn't be so loud as to be overbearing.
  • As you listen to the CD, concentrate on the repetitive beat frequencies and think about nothing else. Let your mind drift while focusing on the tones.
