Using binaural audio will help your meditation practice by slowing your brain waves and taking you into a very deep state. Your brain waves naturally slow when you meditate and it's been shown that external methods to achieve the same end are very beneficial to your experience of meditation.

Commonly this is used for meditation, but that's not the only use by far. You can use it to put you into a receptive brainwave pattern that will enhance your learning ability and retention

Long term use of a binaural program will “entrain your brain waves” What this means is that by externally inducing a particular brainwave, and the beneficial effects that you’ll experience from this, you begin to get those benefits all the time.

it's like the more you run it the deeper the groove becomes and the more easily that your mind slots into it. This is pretty exciting stuff because it means that we aren’t always going to need to rely on a particular audio track to reach a brainwave state.

Different levels of brainwave activity:

13 to 40 Hz - Beta waves

This is the most common brainwave level to be at during most of our waking hours. It’s at this level that we experience joy, sorrow, anxiety and anger. We can feel worried and stressed, but also alert with some focus.

7 to 13 Hz - Alpha waves

This is a more relaxed state when we are less alert than in the beta state but we are still receptive to learning and retention. This level can be induced simply by listening to baroque music, which has a certain tempo that will put most people into an alpha state

4 to 7 Hz - Theta waves

This is the level of sleeping and dreaming, we spend most of the night at this brainwave level. This is also where we are hypnotized and are very receptive.

Less than 4 Hz - Delta waves

This is the lowest brainwave level that we can experience and it is associated with extremely deep meditation but most people only ever experience it in the small hours of the morning for a brief time.

Much of the repair and refreshment of the body occurs at this time. Who hasn't had a night of restless and disturbed sleep?) then you wake up feeling like you’ve not slept at all even though you’ve spent 8 hours in bed. Often this is due to the fact that we didn't reach a very slow level of brain wave at all. Over the course of the night we almost aim for this deep level, spending only a few minutes a night there.

Many cultures use music and especially drums to produce a trance like effect on the listeners, taking them to a low brain wave state while they’re still awake. In its many varied guises this is a quick way to access the spiritual realm through external stimulus.

The concept of brainwaves being altered has been around for years, but it is only in recent years that recording technology has allowed us to fully harness the power of this amazing knowledge.

Using binaural audio you don't need to wait to get the benefits of meditation and all the rewards that follow. Research keeps on showing more and more benefits, many of which are well known to monks and yogi’s but there is now scientific validation to those claims and best of all the benefit are available to us all.
