The effects of the binaural beat will depend on its frequency and the corresponding brain wave: Beta waves (13-16 Hz) occur when we are awake and alert. Alpha waves (8-12 Hz) happen when we are ...

As part of the study published in SLEEP, researchers at the University of Surrey manipulated the brain waves known as the alpha and theta oscillations in 18 healthy young adults while they slept.

Understanding your brain waves Of course, thinking starts with ... range from 13 to 60 pulses per second in the Hertz scale. “Alpha” is the second brainwave and is accessed when we are in ...

Research confirms these personal experiences with music. Current findings indicate that music around 60 beats per minute can cause the brain to synchronize with the beat causing alpha brainwaves ...

Just as a conductor coordinates different instruments in an orchestra to produce a symphony, breathing coordinates hippocampal brain waves to strengthen memory while we sleep, reports a new study.
