Want to relax? Meditate? Learn faster? Focus attention? Increase your awareness? Try self-hypnosis?

Just put on the earphones and let BrainWave Generator take you to the state of mind you want.

The sound and visual stimulation functions of BrainWave Generator help you

* prepare for stressful situations or challenging tasks
* improve learning results
* alleviate sleeping problems and headaches
* ...and much more!

BrainWave Generator generates binaural beats that change your brain frequency towards the desired state, be it relaxation or enhanced attention.

In addition to using the more than 20 built-in brain wave entrainment programs, you can create your own programs (presets).

Getting rid of bad habits by meditation
Meditation and relaxation capabilities of BrainWave Generator may help to get rid of some bad habits:

* Quit smoking
* Quit drinking
* Lose weight

This is because habits such as smoking and excessive drinking or eating are often unconscious ways to control one's feelings and moods, for example, to alleviate anxiety. This is especially true in the case of drinking, as alcohol changes one's state of mind quite noticeably and can create an illusion of relaxation.

Theory Behind BrainWave Generator

EEG and the brain's state
EEG (Electroencephalography) technology is used to measure brain's electrical vibrations from the surface of the scalp. The resulting EEG pattern will contain frequency elements mainly below 30Hz.

Entraining the brain to a desired state
If external stimulus is applied to the brain, it becomes possible to entrain the brain frequency from one stage to another. For example, if a person is in beta stage (highly alert) and a stimulus of 10Hz is applied to his/her brain for some time, the brain frequency is likely to change towards the applied stimulus. The effect will be relaxing to the person. This phenomenon is also called frequency following response.

When the brain's state is close to the applied stimulus, entrainment works more efficiently. Thus, when doing a sweep from one frequency to another, the starting frequency should be as close to your current brain state as possible. The sweep speed should be such that your brain's state changes steadily with it, so that the difference never gets very large. In practice, it is difficult to determine your brain state without extra equipment (like EEG devices). However, you can quite safely assume that during the day your brain is in the beta stage (about 20Hz) and you can start the sweep from there. If you are already somewhat relaxed, you can use a start frequency of 15Hz or a few Hz lower.

Stimulating the brain with binaural beat frequencies
The easiest way of applying stimulus to the brain is via ears. Other senses could be used as well, and vision is actually used quite often (often in addition to hearing). However, humans cannot hear sounds low enough to be useful for brain stimulation, so special techniques must be used. One such special technique used is called binaural beats.

If the left ear is presented with a steady tone of 500Hz and the right ear a steady tone of 510Hz, these two tones combine in the brain. The difference, 10Hz, is perceived by the brain and is a very effective stimulus for brainwave entrainment. This 10Hz is formed entirely by the brain. When using stereo headphones, the left and right sounds do not mix together until in your brain. The frequency difference, when perceived by brain this way, is called a binaural beat.
