Our brain works primarily with bioelectrical energy, and it is demonstrated to be a machine of low frequencies. Our brain, in addition to processing information that is recieved by the senses, is capable of emitting extra-sensory information received via similar “electromagnetic waves.” It has been proven thanks to the EEG that the brain emits waves of varying intensity and frequency depending on the mental state of the person being observed. These mental states range from the state of stress with Gamma Wave frequencies to states of deep sleep with Delta frequencies. The chapter introduces the use of music, sound, hypnosis, and meditation to induce particular states of mind that can help people achieve desired personal goals, such as learning, creativity and relaxation as therapy anxiety and other mental illness.
