Glossary Brainwave EntrainmentBinaural Beats Binaural beats are a form of brainwave entrainment using two separate sounds that combine to form one sound inside your brain. One benefit that is often mentioned is that in order for the brain to create a binaural beat, it must use both hemispheres of the brain (right and left), which is claimed to produce "hemispheric synchronization". Binaural beat audios must be listened to with headphones. Binaural beats or binaural tones are artificially induced rhythms that the brain produces when exposed to two separate sounds one in the left and the other in the right ear. The beat that is created is the difference between the two frequencies. For example, if 300 Hz is played in one ear and 310 Hz in the other, then the binaural beat would have a frequency of 10 Hz. Stereo headphones must be used to create this effect because a different sound must be played into each ear. The frequencies used must be below 1,000 hertz and the difference between the tones must be 30 Hz or less. If not the effect will not occur and the two sounds will be heard as two rather than one different beat. Binaural beats are better known than other brainwave entrainment tones but they have been found to be less effective than isochronic tones. For this reason we do not use binaural beats alone. Harmonic Box X Harmonic Box X is a tone-based brainwave entrainment method described by James Mann in his book, Awakening Mind 1. It has become quite popular in recent years. The method is unique in that it incorporates both monaural and binaural beats, in a harmonic formation. Because it uses binaural beats it requires headphones. Our Alpha Relax audio uses Harmonic Box Monaural Beats Monaural beats are similar to binaural except that the brainwave entrainment sound is formed outside the brain. This means you do not need to wear headphones. Isochronic Beats Isochronic beats do not rely on the interaction of two tones to form a beat. Instead, a beat is formed manually using audio modulations. They have been found to be very effective in inducing entrainment. You do not require headphones to listen to isochronic beats. Our sleep induction audios use isochronic tones. |

It works!! I've been a poor sleeper all my life. I've tried many things to help me sleep and by
experimenting and trial and error I thought I had my insomnia pretty well under control.

"You have made a great deal of difference in such a short time." Thanks for your two e-mails. I am sleeping better with the new recordings I bought from you which is great. Although I am waking up in the night, the recordings are sending me back to sleep pretty quickly so I am really pleased about that...for me this is a good result, so I am really grateful. Getting enough sleep, eating healthy and staying fit are essential to leading a healthy lifestyle. ...Thank you for being so great. You have made a great deal of difference in such a short time. With very best wishes Sheila Leeds, UK |

"You really did a lovely job with this program and I’ve loved getting the emails." "The nicest thing, and whether it is psychological or not, is that the sleep sound brainwave entrainment has really helped as much as I could expect (I have apnea problems and am still dealing with claustrophobic reaction to a CPap). It really does help me get back to sleep much faster, thank heaven." I’d be very interested in further sleep sounds. Wanted to know if that was your voice in the first one? It’s soothing all by itself!" Liz Wade New Jersey USA

"I now awake very refreshed. Thank you !" I would lie awake at night, very tired, but my mind would not shut down. From the last TV show I watched to all of the days conversation, I would keep playing them over and over. This program helped me let go and let my mind rest. If I would wake up in the night, I just popped the sound portion back on my headset and drift back to sleep. I now awake very refreshed. Thank you ! Karen Westerville Ohio |

"I would recommend this program to anyone who has sleeping problems, of any kind" I am so greatly impressed by your program- it really works! I am a former Graves' Disease patient and insomnia is one of the most debilitating symptoms of this disease. Since I have your Sleep Audio Program I have no problems sleeping all night. My 10 year old daughter is also listening to her "Sleep CD", she even called me from England where she was in a summer school and could not sleep because of the time difference. I had to put the CD on the phone so she can listen, but soon she will fell asleep and we had no problems. I would recommend this program to anyone who has sleeping problems, of any kind and I am recommending that to all my clients suffering from this problem as well. Thank you!
