Continued from How it Works

Here is a brainwave frequency chart showing some of the known frequencies and their associated mental states:

Wave	Frequency	Mental State
Beta	15Hz-38Hz	Low Beta (15-20Hz) Linked to increase in mental abilities, IQ and focus High Beta (20-38Hz) Linked to alertness, but may also agitate
SMR	12Hz-15Hz	SMR (sensorimortor rhythem) - Related to body motion. Linked to increased focus, attentiveness.
Alpha	8Hz-12Hz	Linked to the waking sate and right befor sleep allso accociated with Relaxation, Stess Relief, Self Hypnosis, Imune system responce and Accelerated learning
Theta	3Hz-8Hz	Low Theta (3-5Hz) Meditation and Speed Naping. High Theta (5-8Hz) Improved sleeping paterns and treatment for Insomnia relief, also efetive for Creative Visualization
Delta	0.2Hz-3Hz	Deep, Dreamless non-REM sleep. Release of HGH

Brainwave Entrainment refers to the brain's electrical response to rhythmic sensory stimulation, such as pulses of sound or light, but Music4yourBrain uses the term "Entrainment" because many people who have achieved various mental states using Brainwave stimulation via audio productions and other means: have found that they are able to re enter those desired mental states at will. Music4yourBrain encourages those using our products to observe and remember the sensations they experience and occasionally attempt to enter those states without the stimulation they benefit from with use of the brainwave entrainment recordings. Once you attain the states of consciousness associated with Accelerated Learning, Relaxation, Entry to sleep,etc.. (without stimulation), then at that time you may find you only need listen to the audio on occasion as a reinforcement to the ability you have already learned!
