How Binaural Beats Work

When you hear two slightly different frequencies in each ear through stereo headphones, your brain perceives a third "beat" at the difference between them. This can influence your brainwave patterns through a process called entrainment.

Delta (0.5-4 Hz) Deep sleep, healing
Theta (4-8 Hz) Meditation, creativity
Alpha (8-14 Hz) Relaxation, calm focus
Beta (14-30 Hz) Alertness, concentration
Gamma (30-50 Hz) Peak awareness

🎧 Headphones Required: Binaural beats only work with stereo headphones, as each ear must receive a different frequency.
