Your brain works in different “waves,” depending on what you’re doing or how you’re feeling. Sound healing helps shift your brainwaves into states that can help you tackle stress, anxiety, sleep problems, and even unlock your creative flow. Here’s how:
1. Delta Waves (0.5–4 Hz): Deep Sleep & Healing
Struggling to fall asleep or get quality rest? Delta waves are the brainwaves of deep sleep and healing. Sound frequencies in this range help you reset, recover, and wake up feeling restored—perfect for anyone battling insomnia or fatigue.
2. Theta Waves (4–8 Hz): Creativity & Relaxation
Need a boost of creativity or a mental escape from stress? Theta waves guide you into a deeply relaxed yet creative state. Whether you’re meditating or brainstorming, these frequencies unlock your intuition and creative spark.
3. Alpha Waves (8–12 Hz): Calm Focus & Clarity
When life feels overwhelming and your mind is scattered, Alpha waves help you focus while staying calm. Think of it as the “sweet spot” for staying productive without burning out. Sound healing can bring you into this balanced, relaxed state, ideal for work or studying.
4. Beta Waves (12–30 Hz): Calm Overactive Thinking
Got a racing mind? Beta waves are linked to active thinking and problem-solving, but too much Beta activity can leave you stressed and anxious. Sound healing can help quiet those overactive thoughts, bringing clarity and helping you reduce mental fog.
5. Gamma Waves (30–100 Hz): Mental Clarity & Peak Performance
Want to be at your sharpest? Gamma waves are associated with peak cognitive function—the brainwave of high-level processing, focus, and insight. When stimulated by sound, Gamma waves help enhance your awareness and clarity.
