- Self-Improvement
Karen Newell is an author and specialist in personal development with a diverse body of work that rests upon the foundation of heart-centered consciousness. As an innovator in the emerging field of brainwave, entrainment, audio meditation, Karen empowers others in their journeys of self-discovery by demonstrating how to connect to inner guidance, achieve inspiration, improve wellness and develop intuition. She is co-founder of sacred acoustics and coauthor with Evan Alexander III, MD, of Living in a Mindful Universe.
The Power of Sound
Sound has been used for millennia to healWe are mostly water and water is highly impacted by vibration/frequency, so this makes senseCertain tones can be very calming (like crystal bowls, tuning forks, or brass bowls – see links below)If meditation is difficult for you, try using sound (think of it as training wheels)Sound will help you pay less attention to the thoughts (that will always be there)YOU CAN MEDITATE! Research by Dr. Anna Yusim found a 26% decrease in anxiety levels, better sleep and better focus after using the technology for just two weeks (this pilot test used the Whole Mind Bundle)Brainwave entrainment is moving the brainwaves to a particular state.
You might not find results with recordings on YouTube due to the way the sound is delivered (so give Sacred Acoustics a try – link below).
Get the best results by using headphones or earbuds (so you are delivering the sound to each ear separately).
Brainwave states
Delta – sleep state 0-4 Hz
Theta – meditative state 4-7 Hz
Alpha – focused state 7-12 Hz
Beta – waking state 12-30 Hz
Binaural beats are used to deliver a different frequency to each ear. The difference between the frequencies creates the brainwave state.
Sacred Acoustics uses binaural beats, monaural beats and harmonizes the frequencies so the sound is pleasing to the ears.
Bottom line: We all have a unique brainwave print (like a fingerprint). So different sounds will impact people differently. Don’t give up! Keep on trying. You might have results immediately, or it might take a few weeks.
