What are the different brain waves and their functions?
Here is a brief overview. We have five brain frequencies (Gamma. Beta, Alpha, Theta, Delta). Each frequency is measured in cycles per second (Hz) and each is a state of consciousness. Gamma (above 40Hz) – Insight Bursts of insight and high-level information processing from different brain areas. Beta (14-40Hz) – Waking Consciousness And Reasoning Normal waking consciousness and a heightened state of alertness, logic and critical reasoning. But also associated with stress, anxiety, unease, fight and flight. Alpha (7.5-14Hz) – Deep Relaxation Present in deep relaxation, whilst daydreaming, when eyes are closed. It heightens imagination, visualization, memory, learning and concentration. Good for positive programming and accessing intuition. This is the entry-point to the subconscious mind. Theta (4-7.5Hz) – Light Meditation And Sleeping Present in deep meditation, light sleep and REM sleep. Realm of vivid visualizations, inspiration, profound creativity and insight. Here lie deep-seated programmes in the subconscious. Delta (0.5-4Hz) – Deep Sleep The realm of deep, dreamless sleep and transcendental meditation where awareness is fully detached. A time of deep healing and regeneration. Unconscious mind. During a Hypnotherapy session we utilise this understanding of brain waves to optimise the use of our brains for making positive changes. We encourage conscious, logical reasoning, followed by relaxation to connect the conscious decisions with the subconscious mind so that the entire mind is focused on creating what is wanted. The trance is then deepened to a sort of replication of REM state to help a person creat the changes they want to see.
