Description

Many depressed individuals have an overabundance of right frontal activity and insufficient left frontal activity. Thus, the goal of this session is to stimulate beta activity in the left hemisphere while soothing the right hemisphere with alpha rhythms. Beta is sent to the right ear to stimulate the left brain and alpha is sent to the left ear to stimulate the right brain.

I have also incorporated the sacred seed syllables of AH & HUM from eastern meditation practices.
AH is the seed syllable associated with the heart and is used to generate peace and compassion. In most mystical and religious traditions around the world, interestingly the sound AH is contained within the name for the divine (God, Allah, Yahweh, Brahma…). It is a primary sound that we utter on every exhale, a sound we naturally make to express relief and the sound we utter when we make a discovery or gain clarity. An extended AHHHH on a long exhale has been shown to release oxytocin (the bonding or love hormone) into the body.

HumThe last word, ‘Hum’ or ‘Hung’ means indivisibility, or something which cannot be torn apart. It holds both wisdom and method and this cannot be broken or divided. It is a reminder that each one of us has purity within us—we just have to go through the paths to e

This track features my voice, Michaels’ ambient electric guitar, chimes, bowls, voice and beach sounds.

Headphones are required.

Special Instructions:

For a high quality listening experience and to aid in blocking out external noises and distractions, a good pair of headphones are highly recommended and required for this track. Before each session, make sure you are well-hydrated. The brain is 75% water and needs water to function fully and well. Brainwave entrainment is a workout for the brain. Find a quiet, comfortable place to sit or lie down, free of distraction. After starting the session, close your eyes and relax.

Standard precautions regarding the use of brainwave entrainment:

Isochronic tones are a form of audio brainwave stimulation and are deemed as a safe technology to use, but there are certain groups of people and situations where it is contraindicated. These warnings are largely precautionary in nature, because of the lack of research in these areas.

Although there isn’t any scientific research that I know of suggesting isochronic tones can cause a seizure, if you are someone who is prone to them or considered at risk for them, you should consult a doctor or medical professional before using brainwave entrainment with isochronic tones, just to be on the safe side. Also do not use isochronic tones:

• If you are pregnant or wear a pacemaker.
• Under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
• While driving or operating potentially dangerous machinery.
• If on any prescribed medication, it is also recommended that you consult a doctor before using it.
