Want to Improve Your Memory?
Have you ever struggled to remember someone’s name when you meet them?
When you remember names, past events, faces or any information at all, your brain wave patterns momentarily change from Beta to Alpha brain wave patterns. If the switch from Beta to Alpha brainwaves doesn’t happen or your Alpha brain waves are not strong enough, you’ll have difficulty remembering.
Remember that Alpha is the bridge that links the conscious and subconscious mind? That’s why the mind switches into Alpha level so that you’re able to draw the memories stored in your subconscious mind to your conscious, thinking mind (Beta) where it can be remembered, processed, interpreted and used.
Researchers have discovered that every time your eyes look up about 30º, your brain momentarily generates Alpha brain wave patterns. If you close your eyes and look up behind your eyelids, the Alpha brain waves are even stronger. It’s been proven that closing your eyes increases Alpha brainwaves. Western scientists still don’t fully understand why this happens. However, spiritual teachers and Eastern philosophers explain that this is because you’re accessing your subconscious through one of your chakras (situated roughly between your eyes). |
Improve Your Focus & Concentration
Have you ever had the experience of being on a roll, the feeling that you could do no wrong? A time when everything seemed to go right. When you so totally focused and engrossed on something that you’re doing. Maybe it was a tennis match when every shot hit the line or a business meeting where you had all the answers.
It’s what athletes call "being in the zone". Everything just flows smoothly and you perform to the best, or even better, than what you could have imagined. Time flies by and before you realize it, you’ve accomplished what you wanted to do.
Wouldn’t it be fantastic if everything always went that smoothly?
The good news is that you can learn to get into that state of mind. Another great advantage of being in Alpha brainwaves is that it improves your concentration and focus.
That’s because it makes use of both sides of your brain, instead of only one side. Normally, people usually are dominant in only one side of their brains, either the left or right side. When you’re in Alpha, both sides of your brain start to work together.
It’s like when all the rowers in a racing boat start to work together and synchronize their rowing. The boat moves much smoother and faster and goes a lot further than if the rowers were rowing out of phase with each other. Got it?
Unlimited Energy, Vitality and Enthusiasm!
Think about how enthusiastic and eager young kids feel about everything. They always have that bright, enthusiastic and eager look in their eyes.
Researchers measured the brain wave patterns of young children and discovered that they spend most of their waking hours in the brain wave patterns or Alpha or Theta. As they grew older and learnt to be more "grown-up", their minds would start generating more Beta brain waves.
That’s not necessarily a bad thing because without Beta, we would not be able to reason, analyze, work things out and function in our everyday adult lives. Reasoning, analyzing, logical thinking, scheduling and planning are all best done in Beta.
The problem is, most adults spend far too much time in Beta and not enough in Alpha or Theta brainwaves. This results in an imbalance and a feeling that something is missing in their lives.
That’s what people refer to when they talk about trying to "recapture or relive the excitement and innocence of youth".
Alpha brain waves bring back the energy, enthusiasm and zest for life that young kids naturally have.
Imagine having all the energy and vitality to channel towards achieving your goals. It won’t even seem like work because you’ll be so enthusiastic doing what you have to do!
I wonder how much your life will improve if you had an endless well of energy, enthusiasm and vitality to help you accomplish all of your goals, especially the really big, life-changing goals?
Improve Your Health and
Fight-off Coughs & Colds!
Recent discoveries in the science of psychoneuroimmunology (which is a long word for the relationship between the mind and body) have demonstrated a clear link between the mind and the health of the body.
It’s been proven that people who are emotionally depressed, stressed-out and feeling negative have weakened immune systems and fall ill easily.
Research has shown that the healing of tissues, wounds, cuts and diseases is accelerated at slower brain waves. Some researchers even claim that healing is 10x faster at the slower Alpha and Theta brain wave patterns.
These slower brain wave patterns are similar to those experienced by meditators, and hence, it’s not surprising that the benefits are also similar. Improved high blood pressure, anger management, hypertension, freedom from headaches, minor pains and aches are just some of the benefits associated from regular sessions at Alpha and Theta.
When I first heard this, I had my doubts. However, after regular sessions at Alpha and Theta, I noticed an improvement in my energy levels and health. I didn’t catch colds or fall sick so often, and if I did, the severity of the illness would be much less than before and I’m always able to recover relatively quickly.
My Personal Favorite - Cure Insomnia & Fall Asleep Easily!
This is one of my personal favorites.
Going to Alpha the best way that I know of curing insomnia without the use of drugs, sleeping pills or alcohol.
I used to find it difficult to sleep at night, perhaps because of an overactive mind (too much Beta!). So, I started regular sessions at Alpha just before going to bed. It was so much easier falling asleep and, without fail, I would nod-off automatically every time my head touched the pillow.
If you think about it, it actually makes a lot of sense. Being at Alpha relaxes you physically and mentally. Once your brainwaves slow down from Beta to Alpha, it also stops the endless mind-talk that keeps you up at night.
Also, remember that your brain waves always enter Alpha just before you go to sleep. So, when you slow down your brain waves to Alpha just before you go to sleep, you’ll naturally just fall asleep.
So, now you can throw away all those sleeping pills, drugs and alcoholic night-caps!
Right? Right!
Great for a Pick-Me-Up after Lunch!...
It doesn’t matter if you’ve slept for a short while. What’s more important is which part of the sleep cycle that you wake up in. About 15-20 minutes after you fall asleep, your mind will have just settled into Alpha brain waves. Any longer and your brain waves will move from Alpha into Theta. If you wake up during the Theta or Delta part of your sleep cycle pattern, you’re likely to feel tired, sleepy and tired when you wake up.
That’s why a short nap after lunch can do wonders for you. Famous historical leaders who take power naps after lunch include John F. Kennedy, Winston Churchill, Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein, Napoleon Bonaparte and Ronald Reagan.
A Harvard University study demonstrated that volunteers who take a short afternoon nap perform better at
learning and memorizing tasks compared to those who don’t take a break. Companies who encourage napping noted a significant
improvement in employee morale and productivity, especially among shift workers.
Dr. Amanda Beck, the medical director of the Sleep Disorder Center of the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque, recommends taking 15-minute naps in the middle of the day. "It's a good idea. Even a 15 minute snooze under less-than-ideal circumstances can rejuvenate an exhausted worker. In a lot of ways, having a nap is lot better than a cup of coffee.", she says. |
So, remember to tell that to your boss the next time you take a power nap after lunch!
Improve Your Intuition!
Another interesting benefit of Theta and Alpha brain waves is that they help improve your intuition and psychic abilities.
Have you ever thought of a friend and then receive a phone call from them the next instant, or accidentally bump into them the next time you go out?
Alpha is the link between the conscious and subconscious mind. Whilst Theta is the realm of the subconscious and intuition.
So, if your Alpha and Theta brain wave patterns are strong enough, it’s a lot easier for intuitive messages from your subconscious or inner mind to reach your conscious mind.
Ever heard of women’s intuition? Well, it’s true.
Researchers compared the brain waves of both men & women, and discovered that women operate at a slower brainwave than men, closer to Alpha. That’s why women sometimes seem to intuitively know stuff that they couldn’t consciously know. Kids are also very perceptive. They always seem to know when something’s not right. That’s because young children are mostly in a state of Alpha. The same goes for animals. The brain waves of animals have been measured and found to be constantly in Theta. I’m sure you’ve heard of cats or dogs who seem to always know when their owners are coming back to the house, and would wait patiently by the door. Then, there are also many incidents of animals who seem to have a premonition or foresight of catastrophes or something bad happening before the event, and would act differently and somehow warn their owners. So, guys, the next time you think of sneaking out & having a good time with your buddies, and not telling your wife or girlfriend, think again. You might have a hard time hiding it from her! |
