About Me

FOR BINAURAL BEAT BRAINWAVE ENTRAINMENT EFFECT, IT IS CRITICAL THAT YOU LISTEN WITH GOOD QUALITY HEADPHONES . . .

Sonic Synergy is the convergence of two streams of sound as medicine: The contemplative and therapeutic tonal dynamics of ancient traditions blended with the 21st century Psychoacoustic/Vibroacoustic technologies of brainwave entrainment and resonant frequencies . . . . . Vibro (to feel), Acoustics (to hear); Psychoacoustics (the effect of sound on the nervous system). Sonic Synergy uses Binaural Beat technology to encourage brainwave entrainment into specific brain states.

Brainwave Frequency Spectrum:

Beta: alertness

Alpha: relaxation

Theta: meditation

Delta: sleep, healing

DETAILS OF BRAINWAVE STATES:

Delta Waves ( below 3.5 hz )

This is the frequency range associated with deep sleep. People do not dream when they are in Delta sleep.

Theta Waves ( 3.5 hz to 7.0 hz )

This is the frequency range associated with a hypnotic, deeply relaxed states of consciousness. Lucid Dreams are more prone to occur in theta. The mind is in a twilight state and is prone to free association resulting in amazing mental images. Many PSI phenomenon are noted to occur in theta such as remote viewing, out of body experiences, and astral projection.

Alpha Waves ( 7.0 hz to 13.0 hz )

In Alpha, we are awake, but relaxed. Alpha is sometimes described as the 'daydream' state as most daydream activity occurs in persons while in alpha.

Beta Waves ( 13.0 hz to 40.0 hz )

Beta is associated with the fully awake, fully focused mind.
