Brainwave Entrainment Meditation For Beginners
Brainwave entrainment meditation can be life-changing. It has helped people to overcome insomnia, release stress and anxiety, increase confidence, develop extra sensory abilities and experience lucid dreams and out of body experiences – and many other things besides. This article provides a brief guide to brainwave entrainment meditation for beginners.
Why Meditate?
Meditation used to be associated with Eastern mystics, hippies and various fringe types, but today it is a very widespread practice that has become much more mainstream. This is happening because more and more people have become aware of the many benefits of meditation offers, and science has also backed up many of the claims made for it.
Meditation has benefits for your physical health, such as reducing blood pressure and decreasing the likelihood of illness developing. It is also good for your mental health, helping to reduce anxiety and depression and increasing feelings of well-being. For those who are interested in exploring altered states of consciousness, meditation is an invaluable tool also, as it helps you to access those capacities of the human mind that remain untapped in most people.
So as you can see, there are many reasons why meditation is so popular. Unfortunately however, a lot of people have difficulty meditating, because they find it difficult to keep their minds quiet and focused for any length of time. Fortunately, brainwave entrainment makes meditation much easier, especially for those who are new to the practice, and if you use a good brain wave entrainment recording, you won’t have spent years learning to meditate before you can experience its benefits for yourself.
What Is Brainwave Entrainment Meditation?
Simply put, brainwave entrainment (which is also known as brainwave synchronization) involves exposing the brain to repetitive stimulus such as sound waves (or light pulses) within a specific frequency range. Thanks to a natural phenomenon called the ‘frequency following response’, the brain has a tendency to match its own brainwave output to the frequency of the sounds it is hearing.
Since brainwaves of different frequencies are associated with different states of consciousness, brainwave entrainment provides a relatively easy way to help your brain access different mental states at will.
For example, experienced meditators might enter a deep trance state in which the brain is predominantly producing theta brainwaves in the 4 to 8 Hz frequency range. Such a state is associated with increased creativity, access to the subconscious mind, as well as the experience of various psychic phenomena. While we all enter the theta state when going to sleep and waking up, most people find it difficult to maintain it while awake for any length of time. But with a brainwave entrainment recording that contains sounds in the theta frequency range, it becomes much easier to access this state and enjoy its benefits.
Sound recordings are the easiest and most accessible type of brainwave entrainment technology to use, although some people also like to use light and sound machines
How To Use Binaural Beats, Monaural Beats & Isochronic Tones
It is very easy to use brainwave organisation recordings. They are usually available in CD or MP3 format, so you can listen to them using any stereo or MP3 player. If using binaural beats, you’ll have to use headphones, and while headphones aren’t essential with monaural beats and isochronic tones, they can make your sessions more effective.
To use your recording, just sit or lie down in a comfortable, quiet place where you won’t be disturbed, and put your focus on the sounds that you’re hearing. Most people find that they can relax and enter the desired mental state relatively easily while listening to such a recording, although as with anything else, it takes practice to get the full benefit, so don’t be discouraged if you don’t get the results you’re looking for on your first attempt.
For best results, you should listen to your brainwave entrainment recording regularly – every day if possible. After a while the brain will become used to the process, and eventually you may get to the point where you can achieve an altered state at will without even needing to use the recording at all. This will probably take a while, but compared to traditional forms of meditation, brain wave entrainment meditation tends to produce results much more quickly.

If you decide to explore the power of binaural beats and other types of brain meditation recordings, it’s very important to get high-quality recordings, or you may not get the results you want. I recommend checking out the ‘Meditation’ tracks from The Unexplainable Store, which are available in binaural, monaural and isochronic formats. There are also free downloads available so you can try all three types out and see which you like best.
