Lecture Research. Binaural Beats Theory. Types Of Brain Waves:

 

1. Beta Waves (12-30 Hz):

   • Frequency: High

   • Activity: Associated with wakefulness and active concentration.

   • State: Typically present during normal waking consciousness, when the brain is actively engaged in cognitive tasks.

2. Alpha Waves (8-12 Hz):

   • Frequency: Moderate

   • Activity: Associated with a relaxed and calm state.

   • State: Commonly observed when an individual is awake but in a state of relaxation, such as during meditation or light daydreaming.

3. Theta Waves (4-8 Hz):

   • Frequency: Slow

   • Activity: Associated with deep relaxation, creativity, and daydreaming.

   • State: Often observed during light sleep, meditation, or moments of deep insight and inspiration.

4. Delta Waves (0.5-4 Hz):

   • Frequency: Very slow

   • Activity: Associated with deep sleep and unconsciousness.

   • State: Dominant during deep sleep, the restorative stage of the sleep cycle, when the body undergoes physical and mental rejuvenation.

 

Binaural Beats Cause Brainwave Entrainment:​

Delta, Theta, and Alpha all reduce anxiety.  Recommended beats:

Beta: reduced depression.  Recommended beats:

To produce a binaural beat in the Beta range (14-30 Hz), you would need two tones with frequencies that differ by the desired beat frequency. For instance, you could use a tone of 200 Hz in one ear and 214-230 Hz in the other ear. The difference between these frequencies (214 - 200 = 14 Hz to 230 - 200 = 30 Hz) would result in a binaural beat within the Beta frequency range.

Carrier Frequencies:

For entrainment at around 10 Hz, the optimal carrier frequency is somewhere between 230 and 240 Hz1.

Tips:

It's hard to judge loudness in these frequencies.  Keep power low to avoid a headache..
Great video on binaural that trades straight across to our presentation.  Dangers of brain entrainment!
