Headphones Required: Binaural beats only work when using headphones or earbuds. Each ear must receive a different frequency independently.
If you are prone to seizures or epilepsy, are pregnant, or are being treated for a neurological condition, check with your doctor before using brainwave entrainment — and stop listening if you feel unwell.
How It Works
When two sine waves of slightly different frequencies are played separately in each ear through headphones, your brain perceives a third "phantom" beat at the difference frequency.
For example: 200 Hz in left ear + 210 Hz in right ear = 10 Hz binaural beat (Alpha waves for relaxation).
Brainwave States
- • Delta (0.5-4 Hz): Deep sleep, healing
- • Theta (4-8 Hz): Meditation, creativity
- • Alpha (8-14 Hz): Relaxation, stress relief
- • Beta (14-30 Hz): Focus, alertness
- • Gamma (30+ Hz): Peak performance
