Your brain is a bustling hub of electrical activity. This is due to the fact that the cells in your brain, called neurons, use electricity to communicate with each other. When a group of neurons sends ...

Alpha waves or Alpha rhythm are macroscopic neural oscillations in the frequency range of 8–12 Hz likely originating from the synchronous and coherent (in phase or constructive) electrical activity of ...

Rhythms produced by the brain can reliably be used to predict how sensitive we are to pain, new research shows. The living brain is constantly producing regular rhythmic patterns of activity, which ...

Neuroscientists recently made a correlation between an increase of alpha brain waves—either through electrical stimulation or mindfulness and meditation—and the ability to reduce depressive symptoms ...

Different types of electrical activity within your brain dominate during certain times of day or during specific activities. Harnessing your brain’s alpha waves can help you enter a flow state, which ...

Alpha waves are electromagnetic oscillations in the frequency range of 8-12 Hz arising from synchronous and coherent (in phase / constructive) electrical activity of large groups of neurons in the ...

Composer Steven Halpern’s Deep Alpha was nominated for a “Best New Age Album” Grammy Award a few years ago. He used an 8-cyle-per-second frequency to let the music encourage its listeners’ alpha brain ...
