Theta: 4-8 Hz. Theta binaural beats benefits include:<ul><li>Meditation</li><li>Deep relaxation</li><li>Creativity</li></ul>

Theta

Alpha: 8-14 Hz. When you are in an alpha state of mind, your brain is focused and productive. Alpha brain waves help you to:<ul><li>Relax and focus</li><li>Reduce Stress</li><li>Maintain positive thinking</li><li>Increase your learning capabilities</li><li>Easily engage in activities and the environment because you are in a state of flow</li></ul>

Alpha

Benefits of binaural beats include:<ul><li>Increased creativity and cognitive enhancement</li><li>Reduced <a href="https://www.webmd.com/anxiety-panic/guide/causes-anxiety" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">anxiety </a>and improved mood</li><li>Helping you enter a meditative state</li><li>Helping to improve focus, attention, and memory retention</li></ul>Note note note!There is a lack of clinical research for binaural beats. So talk to your doctor before trying to use binaural beats for any health reasons.&nbsp;

Benefits of Binaural Beats

Your brain interprets the two tones as a beat of its own. The two tones align with your brain waves to produce a beat with a different frequency. This frequency is the "difference" in hertz (Hz) between the frequencies of the two tones. For example, if you are listening to a 440 Hz tone with your left ear and a 444 Hz tone with your right ear, you would be hearing a 4 Hz tone.

Your Brain and Binaural Beats

When you listen to binaural beats, your brain activity matches the frequency set by the frequency of the beat. This is called the frequency-following effect. This means you can use binaural beats to entrain your mind to reach a certain mental state.

The frequency-following effect. 

There are five different brain waves:Delta: 1-4 Hz. Delta is the lowest frequency state, and it’s linked to:<ul><li>Deep sleep</li><li>Healing and pain relief</li><li>Anti-aging: cortisol reduction/DHEA increase</li><li>Access to the unconscious mind‌ </li></ul>

Types of brain waves

Beta: 14-30 Hz. Beta is a higher frequency brainwave and helps in:<ul><li>Keeping your attention focused</li><li>Analytical thinking and solving problems</li><li>Stimulating energy and action</li><li>High-level cognition</li></ul>

Beta

As many binaural beats are freely available, the reactions to the beats vary from one individual to another. Individuals need to experiment with different binary beats to find ones that suit them. The effectiveness of binaural beats depends on the listener. Some people will find the beats effective. Others might find them irritating and unproductive.

A note however

Gamma: 30-100 Hz. With a higher frequency than beta, these brain waves help in:<ul><li>Increased cognitive enhancement</li><li>Attention to detail, helping in memory recall</li><li>A different way of thinking, which is a sign of creativity</li></ul>
