Brainwave entrainment is a method to stimulate the brain into entering a specific state by using a pulsing sound, light, or electromagnetic field. The pulses elicit the brain’s ‘frequency following’ response, encouraging the brainwaves to align to the frequency of a given beat.

It was very much the norm in times gone by to have been put onto some form prescription medication should you present any symptoms of any type of mental disorder, including for these attacks treatment.

However, this mindset is beginning to change with a lot of anxiety and panic disorder sufferers looking for alternatives to this form of anxiety and panic attacks treatment. The truth be told, many of the alternative treatments for these disorders have actually been around for centuries in one form or the other.

There are a whole host of alternative anxiety attacks treatment which are available on the market today, each of which has been proven to be very effective at treating this type of mental disorder, the only downside is that most of them tend to be rather time consuming and require a very strong dedication and commitment from the patient to be effective.

Some of these anxiety and these attacks treatment methods have a very good track record when it comes to treating disorders which are related to anxiety and panic. Some of these treatments include hypnotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, acupuncture and brainwave programming.

All of these are very natural and side effect free treatments and have been tried and tested and proven to work especially when it come to mental disorders. After all, the condition which the sufferer of anxiety and panic attacks is suffering from falls under the category of mental disorders.

It is therefore self explanatory why treatments such as hypnotherapy and brainwave programming could prove to be very effective in the treatment of these types of disorders as they address the cause of the problem instead of trying to disguise the symptoms.

Both of these can be considered to be very effective alternative anxiety and panic attacks treatment methods and should be carefully considered by anyone who is looking for alternative ways to overcome these mental disorders.
Brainwave entrainment is a method to stimulate the brain into entering a specific state by using a pulsing sound, light, or electromagnetic field. The pulses elicit the brain’s ‘frequency following’ response, encouraging the brainwaves to align to the frequency of a given beat.

This ‘frequency following’ response of brainwave entrainment can be seen in action with those prone to epilepsy. If a strobe flashes at their seizure frequency, the brain will ‘entrain’ to the flashing light, resulting in a seizure.

On the positive side, this same mechanism is commonly used to induce many brainwave states; such as a trance, enhanced focus, relaxation, meditation or sleep induction. The brainwave entrainment effectively pushes the entire brain into a certain state.

Brainwave entrainment works for almost everyone. It is a great way to lead your mind into states that you might usually have difficulty reaching, allowing you to experience what those states feel like.

THE HYPE
There is a lot of marketing hype around brainwave entrainment. It is sold with promises of increasing IQ, promoting weight loss, ‘mind-tripping’, enhancing creativity, concentration, inducing spiritual states and more.

While these claims are not entirely true, they are not altogether false either. In practice, the claims are based on an overly-simplistic view of how the brain and the brainwaves function.
THE RUB
People are very seldom deficient in a certain brainwave type in all areas of their brain. Usually the distribution is much spottier, with an excess in one area and a deficiency in another.

We are all different, especially when it comes to the distribution of our brainwaves. Boosting a certain brainwave state may be beneficial for one person, and emotionally uncomfortable for another. Without knowing each person’s starting position, entrainment can be rather ‘hit and miss’.

If brainwave entrainment leaves you with unwanted side-effects (see below) or discomfort, you’re probably encouraging a range of brainwaves that are already excessive in some area of your brain. The way around this is to get a brain map to see what your brain’s strengths and weaknesses are, and see what (if any) brainwaves could use some encouragement.

It was the spring of 2011 when I was woken up very early one morning by a phone call from my best friend, Kara. She sounded panicky, which made me sit bolt upright and the annoyance I’d felt at being woken up that early on my day off slipped away quickly. I asked her to calm down as I could barely understand what she was saying and to explain what was wrong once she’d caught her breath.

Once she did explain coherently, I was even more annoyed than at first. Searching for appropriate engagement rings and wedding bands was the last thing I wanted to do during my vacations. But there are certain things you cannot say no to, especially when your best friend is due to get married soon. So I agreed to go on the quest to find rings for her husband-to-be and provide some male insight into wedding bands for men.

We went to the closest jewelry store first, and worked our way out in a circle. Although men do not traditionally wear an engagement ring, Kara was insistent about getting an engagement ring and wedding band set for her fiancé. I found a pair that I liked at the fifth shop we went into but it wasn’t quite right as far as she was concerned. I hate shopping and if I had any say in the matter, we would have bought a set from the very first shop. But then I did not have any say in the matter, none whatsoever.

So we continued our little quest and with Kara adamant about finding the perfect ring/band set, I was close to tearing my hair out in frustration by the time we entered into the twelfth store. Or was it the twentieth? Once again I found a pair that I liked and once again Kara shot me down. It was fast becoming one of the worst days of my life and it climbed further up the charts when she threw up her hands and burst into tears as we made our way out of yet another shop.

I took her to a nearby café, tried my best to ignore the weird looks I got from complete strangers, bought her a coffee and tried to calm her down as best as I could. That’s when the brainwave came crashing in. I couldn’t believe I hadn’t thought of it before. I’d come across this website once that had all sorts of men’s rings. Fortunately the café had Wi-Fi and I could bring up a search on my phone.

Tungsten was my savior. Not only did browsing their website make Kara stop crying, she finally looked like she might find what she’d been looking for. I sat there quietly sipping my coffee as she browsed through the collection of tungsten rings, searching their section about wedding bands for men. It took her about thirty minutes to squeal in delight and almost break my neck in an across-the-table hug. She’d found the perfect engagement ring/wedding band pair at last.

This was my first experience with Tungsten and wedding bands or engagement rings. Looking back, I’m glad I decided to go out and help my friend look for them. If you’ve had similar or interesting experiences, please feel free to share them with us.

It was in 1996 that I plunged into a side business. I had no background, and little training. And of course, it became a failure.

But I learned that “it” was not the one that failed. It was “me” who failed. Those were tough words to own up to.

I watched others who knew exactly what they were doing. And I asked myself:

“What does it take to become successful like them? Why wasn’t I blessed with their talents? How do I earn that kind of money?”

I had to admit–I was clueless.

Then one side business led to another, which led to more failures. It wasn’t the failures that disturbed me as much as not knowing why I failed.

Then I was introduced to self-development: getting coached from success leaders who walked their talk. I must confess–I wasn’t a big fan. I hadn’t picked up any books since college, and “reading” was no longer in my vocabulary.

But I highly respected my friend who introduced me. He said, “Listen to these tapes and tell me what you think.”

It’s because of those circumstances that I’m writing you today. You see, I had chosen my vision and was living it. Little did I know–it was a tiny one.

My job paid well, but I became braindead. My mind turned into mush. The repetitive patterns subdued my right-brain creativity. Or more accurately, it testifed I had little brainwave activity to begin with.

I devoured the books and tapes, took on a few mentors, and became a serious student. But this time, I chose my faculty and my courses. I didn’t have to pick from a limited school list.

I played tapes while driving to work, read books during my breaks, and booked flights to attend seminars. I learned to invest in myself, break bad habits, and change course. I have to admit–change isn’t fun. Just necessary.

So I traded my tiny vision for a larger one. I knew I had found my calling. A calling I couldn’t see before.

And I bet you have a larger vision than the one you’re living.

You have dreams and goals that have been latent for years. You know it’s easier going lateral than vertical. And you have layers of hidden fears… of failure… and success.

Which is why I’m writing you…

I have been where you are now. I have struggled with the same stuff you do. And I have transformed from a person who didn’t believe in myself, to a person who helps people strenthen theirs.

So I have to ask, “What are you failing at lately?”

If you’re not failing at all–you may not be trying very hard. You’re comfortable in your comfort zone. You’re guilty of taking baby steps and not venturing from the crib.

Which means your one-year goal has now become a seven-year goal. The Mercedes you wanted doesn’t come in your color. And of course, it’s childish to show up the Joneses.

Hogwash!

Failing is part of the success equation. Everyone fails. But only those who get back up have a real chance at reaping the rewards.

Please don’t make failure your goal, but picture it as the ultimate teacher. Once you’ve gone through it, sort it inside a folder. Just like this e-zine.

So don’t treat failure as an enemy or something to avoid. It will come. The secret is not giving up at the first sign of disappointment. Keep focused on your goals and you’ll learn to leverage failure to your advantage.

It was a warm summer night. The line of customers waiting to get into the chic Los Angeles restaurant stretched all the way down the street and around the corner. It was like this every night. People waited for hours to get in.

The restaurant is that hot.

But something was about to change. Not the restaurant’s popularity, but how guests have to wait in line. Down the avenue, a fleet of limousines approached. Their tires screeched as they halted in front of the people. Chauffeurs got out. Someone stepped to the front of the line and got on the restaurant’s microphone system. Everyone stared, until they heard what was up their sleeves.

From now on, restaurant guests would wait for tables while relaxing in limousines. They’d enjoy some appetizers, maybe have some cocktails, and escape Los Angeles’ summer heat.

Who came up with this crazy idea?

A company in Los Angeles. The company rents limousines, and the owner also happens to love this restaurant, but he hates the lines. One night, as he was waiting with his wife, he thought how nice it would be if he could just wait in one of my company’s limos instead of standing in an infernal line.

Then it hit him. Wouldn’t everyone like that? He talked to the owner that night. It was hard to get into a conversation with him, with all the busyness, but he was interested in hearing the idea to “deal with the awful line situation.”

It turns out he had been hoping to get a bigger restaurant, but pickings were slim. Plans to build a second floor fell through, thanks to Los Angeles’ complicated permitting system. So the owner of the limo company told him about his brainwave: Rent a few vehicles from a Los Angeles limo company and let guests wait while riding around town. It would be great promotion too. The new clients that came along just for the ride would offset the rental costs.

He looked pensive. Then he was called away to deal with some problem in the kitchen, but promised to think about the “interesting idea.” The limo owner didn’t get the impression that he was sold on it, and a couple of weeks passed with no word. He figured the manager had decided he was a nutcase.

Then one Saturday morning, the limo owner got a call. It was the restaurant owner. “Hey, are you the guy from the Los Angeles limo company?” Yes, it was. He told how the night before, the line was long as usual. He watched as clients got tired of waiting and left. Then he remembered the limo idea. He decided any solution was better than the current situation.

So they gave it a shot.

His restaurant is now nicknamed the Limo restaurant. Business has boomed even more.

Limo companies love coming up with new ways for businesses to use limos to achieve success. They always tell clients, be original. Have fun. Try something new and crazy. Hey, chances are, it’ll work.

It was a hot day and a very poor milk woman hobbled along the long, dusty road that led to the bazaar. By her side skipped her little girl sometimes lagging behind to pick the daisies that grew on the verge. As she was so tired the milk woman laid down her heavy metal cans brimful of milk, kicked off her shabby sandals to rest her weary feet and fell fast asleep in the strong sunshine.

Suddenly two Eagles swooped down from the cloudless sky with a great fluttering of wings. They winched up the little girl by her yellow ribbons, and swiftly bore her away to their nest in the topmost branches of a high tree. Their home was made of bronze and teakwood and to get in and out you had to bolt and unbolt seven massive teak clad bronze doors.

The Eagles loved the little girl as if she was their own daughter because she was so like a little bird. Mr Eagle looking at Mrs Eagle with his bright brown eyes said, ‘we’ll call her Surya Bai which means Sun Lady.’ And how they pampered her! Nothing was too good for her – wonderful toys and clothes and gifts, fit for a princess.

Surya Bai lived happily with them for many years. On her sixteenth birthday, Daddy Eagle said to Mummy Eagle. ‘You know, Surya Bai doesn’t have a ruby ring like most princesses. I think we ought to remedy that.’

‘Just what I was thinking! You’re a mind reader!’ exclaimed Mummy Eagle smoothing her feathers, ‘but I’ve heard that the only place where we can locate anything like that is by the Red Sea and that will mean an expedition lasting… ‘ and she broke off to count on her claws ‘… almost twelve months’.

The Eagles fretted about leaving Surya Bai all alone but then they decided she’d be completely safe and secure in the virtually impregnable home with a year’s supply of food and the dog and the cat to keep her company. And so they kissed her goodbye and soared away.

Now the cat, jet black with white ears and white tail, was very mischievous and one day she gobbled up rather more than her fair share.

‘You naughty, naughty kitty,’ scolded Surya Bai,’ just look what you’ve done!’ The food has got to last until Mummy and Daddy Eagle return and if you persist in eating at this rate, we’ll soon have nothing left and we’ll starve, you included. You ought to be ashamed of yourself.’ And she banished the cat into a far corner for the rest of the day. Puss was very annoyed and hissed and spat. She was furious at being punished, especially as the dog was making provocative faces at her. So she ran to the fire that was kept burning all day and all night and huffed and puffed till she’d blown it out.

Surya Bai was at her wits end. ‘What am I to do now? How am I going to re-light the fire?’ she wondered, ‘and if I can’t cook myself a meal, I shall starve and die,’ and she burst into tears.

‘Don’t cry, Surya Bai’, begged the dog. ‘Dry your eyes and stand at the edge of the nest and tell me if you can detect a plume of blue smoke in the distance.’

Surya Bai sniffed and blew her nose hard and running to the window fastened her gaze in the direction where the dog pointed with his paw, ‘Yes,’ she said ‘so there is. I’ll climb down and see if there’s someone who’ll lend me some matches.’

She slid down the tree carefully shutting each of the seven doors behind her and made her way towards the billowing smoke. Before too long she found herself in a clearing by a tiny cottage made entirely of black volcanic mud and banana leaves. Surya Bai tapped on the door.

A voice croaked, ‘who’s out there? Is it you my son?’

‘It’s me, Surya Bai,’ she replied. ‘My fire has gone out-would you lend me some matches?’

Now what poor Surya Bai didn’t know was that she’ d wandered into the country of the rakshas and the voice was that of an old crone who was none other than a rakshas herself. A rakshas is a particularly hideous and nasty demon with a long hairy nose, long pointed ears and slit eyes and it can transform itself into any shape it wants.

When the hag of a rakshas caught sight of Surya Bai she said to herself, ‘what a pretty little thing and what a simply delicious meal she’d make for my son. I’ll see if I can detain her here until he returns home.’

She turned to Surya Bai and smiled cunningly. ‘Ooh you poor little mite. Don’t you worry yourself. I must have some firelighters or matches somewhere. But first help me to pound this rice; I’m frail and my arms aren’t as strong as they once were.’

Surya Bai squatted on the floor and pounded the grains, backwards and forwards, backwards and forwards with a flat, crescent shaped stone. When she had finished, the junior rakshas still hadn’t returned from hunting.

The old rakshas was determined to keep Surya Bai there for as long as it took so she said, yawning and showing her pointed black teeth, ‘I’m exhausted – look, grind this corn for me and afterwards you’d be doing me a great favour if you’d sweep the floor and clean the house as it’s in need of a good going over.’

So Surya Bai, who was a willing, obedient little girl, ground the corn and swept the floor with a broom she’d found under a pile of rags in the kitchen. But there was still no sign of the junior rakshas and the mother knew she couldn’t persuade Surya Bai to stay very much longer without arousing her suspicions. ‘Why are you in such a hurry to go, dear? If you fetch me some water from the well, I’ll give you several big boxes of matches.’

Surya Bai went round to the back of the cottage, lowered a tin bucket into the well and drew up some fresh, cold water which she poured into a glass and handed to the old rakshas.

‘Thank you, dearie,’ said the rakshas. ‘Now you’ll find the matches in a trunk near my sewing basket. And before you go take some dried corn and sprinkle it along behind you as you make your way home so as to leave a trail behind my place and yours because I want my son to bring you a thank you present for all you’ve done for fragile old me.’

Surya Bai beamed and as she skipped back to the nest she scattered handfuls of corn as she ran along. The dog wagged his tail furiously when he saw her but the cat was still sulking. After re-kindling and re- lighting the fire, she cooked supper, fed the dog but not the cat, and then, because she was so tired, fell fast asleep.

Just after she’d left the old rakshas, the junior rakshas had come rushing home, famished after a day’s hunting during which he’d not managed to bag a single buck.

‘Be quick, son,’ urged his mother ‘you’ve just missed a tasty little morsel. But no problem- I told her to leave a trail and you’ll have no trouble following it.’

The junior rakshas set off in hot pursuit and soon reached the bottom of the tree. He scrambled up to the outermost door of the nest. ‘Oh, I can easily get in,’ he thought for he was the champion wrestler of the rakshas. ‘The door is no match for me. I’ll just shake and keep shaking until the whole thing disintegrates.’ But the door didn’t yield. Then he had a bright idea. ‘Let me in little one,’ he called, disguising his voice, ‘it’s me- Daddy Eagle. Mummy Eagle and I’ve brought you some magnificent surprises from the pyramids of Egypt.’

But Surya Bai didn’t hear him because she was asleep. Now all this shaking and banging and mimicry had made the young rakshas rather irritated and hoarse so he gave the door another kick and thumped it for a good ten minutes. It still didn’t budge an inch. Then, disgusted, he gave the door a final swipe and in all the to-do, one of his fingernails broke off and got stuck in the door. You may not know this but the fingernail of a rakshas is more poisonous than a scorpion’s bite.

Next morning, when Surya Bai opened the doors one by one till she came to the seventh and final door, she felt something graze her hand. It was the rakshas’ fingernail and she immediately collapsed in a coma.

At noon the Eagles returned to the nest delighted to be home again. On the threshold they found Surya Bai with her eyes tightly closed. They did their best but failed to revive her and were convinced she hadn’t long to live. They couldn’t bear to see her like that so they kissed and cuddled her and Daddy Eagle slipped the gorgeous ruby ring on her finger and with Mummy Eagle flew sadly away.

That afternoon, about tea time, a Rajah happened to ride by on an ebony horse. He was out hunting with friends and, glancing up, the nest had attracted his attention. ‘Get up there and tell me what it is,’ he commanded an aide. The Rajah was young and very handsome; he had a black moustache and curly black hair and wore a suit of the purest gold edged with precious gems and decorated with wild geese feathers. On his left shoulder perched a falcon.

The aide, who had by now reached the top of the tree, couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw Surya Bai lying there so beautiful and motionless. He felt her pulse and realised she was just in a deep sleep. He slithered down as fast as he could and reported excitedly to the Rajah. ‘Sire, oh Sire,’ he said, hardly able to find the words, ‘there’s the loveliest girl imaginable up there.’

The Rajah gave a quick order to six footmen to bring her down. ‘What’s this?’ he muttered to himself as he saw something sticking out of her hand. It was the fingernail. He jerked it sharply out of her palm and slowly Surya Bai opened her eyes, blinked and gazed round her. The Rajah bent over her and said very tenderly, ‘Dear lady, I am the Rajah of Indahaar. I was out riding when I noticed that strange object,’ and he pointed to the nest. ‘Curiosity got the better of me. Won’t you tell me who you are?’

‘I am the Eagles daughter,’ Surya Bai told him, ‘and that’s my home. The Rajah threw back his head and laughed, ‘I can’t believe it,’ he said. ‘You must be of royal birth and a princess.’ Surya Bai shook her head and sighed. ‘Alas, I am not and now I’m all alone what’s going to become of me?’

The Rajah stood up and straightened himself to his full height till the jewels on his suit tinkled. ‘You shall be a princess by marriage,’ he declared, ‘for I shall make you my Rani (Queen).’ He swung her onto his saddle and rode off with her and she was crowned the very next day.

The Rajah was the step-son of the Queen Mother who was a spiteful woman and very jealous of Surya Bai’s beauty and sweet nature. For a long time she’d wanted her own niece to marry the Rajah and she resolved to break up the Rajah and his Rani but couldn’t find a way as they loved each other dearly.

Now Surya Bai had a faithful lady- in -waiting who was very fond of her and knew the Queen Mother was plotting against her. One day, as she helped Surya Bai comb her long black hair with a comb made from an elephant’s tusk, she said, ‘Rani, I want to warn you about the Queen Mother. She’s very embittered and will stop at nothing to stir up trouble for you.’

Surya Bai laughed. ‘What nonsense – she’ll soon get used to me. I don’t see why we can’t live happily together.’

But the Queen Mother was determined to get rid of Surya Bai and found the perfect way to do it. Surya Bai was trying on some jewellery the Rajah had given her and she and the Queen Mother were standing by a deep pond in the courtyard of the palace. The lady -in- waiting whispered to Surya Bai. ‘Stand back, Rani, you’re too near the edge,’ but Surya Bai didn’t hear her.

The Queen Mother sharply ordered the lady -in- waiting indoors. No sooner was her back turned than the Queen Mother took Surya Bai roughly by the shoulders and shoved her into the water. Then she hurried away as fast as she could. Surya Bai had never learned to swim and although she tried desperately to reach the bank she floundered. As she sank to the bottom of the pond, a lotus flower sprang up of a most delicate shade of pink and white.

The Rajah was frantic when Surya Bai was nowhere to be found and had the palace turned inside out. ‘What shall I do, what shall I do?’ he wailed in despair to the Queen Mother.

‘Ask Surya Bai’s lady- in -waiting,’ retorted the Queen Mother, maliciously seeing a way to get even with her, ‘she was her best friend.’

The Rajah summoned the lady- in- waiting and demanded to know what had happened to Surya Bai. But the woman remained silent knowing that she couldn’t accuse the Queen Mother without proof of her guilt. The Rajah, taking her silence for a confession of wrongdoing, had her incarcerated in the deepest and darkest dungeon in the palace.

The Rajah became so wan and unhappy that his subjects feared he was on the verge of death. Then one day, as he sat by the pond in a morose mood, he happened to notice the lotus flower and, as he watched it more closely, it glided towards him.

‘Oh, you beautiful thing,’ he said bending down to caress its petals, ‘you remind me so much of my love Surya Bai’ and every morning after breakfast, he’d go down to the pond and talk to the little flower and gradually gained a measure of peace.

The Queen Mother, jealous as ever, was enraged when she noticed the Rajah’s devotion to the plant. She ordered courtiers to rip out the lotus flower and burn it in the jungle when the Rajah was away. No sooner had they carried out her command and scattered the ashes of the lotus than a guava tree sprang up. At the very top hung the biggest and most perfect guava, both in shape and colour, which the kingdom had ever seen. People came from far and wide to admire it and the news reached the Rajah. He proclaimed that the magnificent guava was to be preserved specially for him.

One day, Surya Bai’s real mother, the milk woman, sat down to rest under the guava tree. Plop! Down rolled the guava into a milk can. The milk woman was horrified. ‘Goodness, I could be executed for being in possession of the Rajah’s prize guava. Nobody will ever believe it fell off accidentally.’ She loaded the cans on her shoulder and trundled home to her husband and her children as fast as she could.

After supper she told her family the story. ‘Deepak, ‘she said to her eldest son, ‘in that can over there you’ll find the guava. Lift it out and bring me a knife and we’ll each have a slice.’

So Deepak emptied the can. To the family’s astonishment a doll-sized woman clad in silk clothes stepped out. They could hardly speak so flabbergasted were they.

‘Let’s keep her as a member of the family,’ they decided,’she’s so pretty.’ So Surya Bai stayed and grew a little bit every day until she became the size of an ordinary young woman.

One day the milk woman said to Surya Bai. ‘Go into the meadow and milk the cows.’ She thought it was time Surya Bai learned a skill to earn her living. When Surya Bai had filled the pails with fresh milk the Rajah came riding past and caught sight of her. He recognised her at once and decided to follow her home.

Furious with rage he shouted at the milk woman. ‘So it was you who kidnapped my wife. Give her back to me this instant or I shall have you beheaded.’ The milk woman had never seen the Rajah in her life and thought he was mad. She picked up a stick and whacked him and his horse about the head, pulled his hair till he cried for mercy and chased him out of her garden.

The Rajah and his horse limped slowly back to the palace. ‘I’m pretty sure it was Surya Bai and I mean to get to the bottom of this,’ he thought as a doctor tended to his injuries. Then he had a brainwave. ‘This is what I’ll do. Surya Bai had a lady- in- waiting who was devoted to her. I’ll enlist her help.’

So, not wanting any of the palace staff to know of his plan he picked his way carefully down into the dungeon, holding his nose as he descended the fetid, stone stairway. ‘I want you to befriend the milk woman,’ he ordered the lady- in- waiting. ‘Find out all you can. If you haven’t sorted it all out within a fortnight, I shall have you exiled to the land of the rakshas.’

The lady -in – waiting lost no time in becoming acquainted with the milk woman and soon she was invited in for a cup of tea. There she saw Surya Bai and knew she was the missing Rani. ‘Tell me,’ she asked the milk woman, ‘has the little lady ever said anything about herself?’

‘It’s very strange.’ The milk woman shook her head. ‘Not a word. She doesn’t talk very much, you know.’ The lady- in- waiting knew she could solve the mystery if she stayed a little longer. ‘Could I ask you for another cup of tea as your milk is so delicious and, maybe, we could encourage her to tell us something,’ she suggested.

The milk woman was delighted to hear how much the milk was appreciated and rose to make another, milkier, cup of tea. ‘What a good idea! I’ve never thought to ask because I thought it might seem like prying. But now that you mention it, I don’t see why I shouldn’t.’ And she called out to Surya Bai who was busy watering flowers in the garden,’ come here, my dear and tell us your story.’

Surya Bai neatly wiped the watering can and stowed it away in the shed and then came and sat down between the lady- in-waiting and the milk woman. She told how she had been snatched away by the Eagles whereupon the milk woman erupted, ‘you’re the little girl I lost!’ and hugged and kissed her. Then Surya Bai talked about her life in the nest and her encounter with the rakshas and how the Rajah had come by and made her his wife. The lady- in-waiting threw herself at Surya Bai’s feet and kissed them and said humbly, ‘Rani, we have all been mourning you for so long.’

Deepak was dispatched to the Rajah who arrived post haste resplendent in a carriage made of mica and sapphires drawn by twelve prancing horses. He climbed out quickly and flung open the milk woman’s door.

There he saw Surya Bai smiling shyly and he was almost weeping with joy and relief. ‘I thought I had lost you forever. Come my sweetheart let’s return in triumph to the palace.’ And he and Surya Bai holding hands and laughing and waving rode back in the carriage through the streets that thronged with cheering people. As they stood on the palace balcony acknowledging the roars of the crowd, the two Eagles power dived from the sky bringing with them the dog and the cat as a gift for Surya Bai.

And what happened to the Queen Mother? She had been bribed by the rakshas to destroy Surya Bai and weaken the power of the Rajah. The Rajah was beside himself with rage when he learned of his step-mother’s evil deeds. His first thought was to condemn her to a slow and painful death by pouring boiling oil over her. Then he consulted his Ministers and they agreed that she should die a quick death. So just before dawn the next morning, before the birds began to twitter, the treacherous woman met her doom when she was bound with ropes of steel and tossed into the pit of cobras that guarded the high walls of the town.

Brainwave entrainment is a method to stimulate the brain into entering a specific state by using a pulsing sound, light, or electromagnetic field. The pulses elicit the brain’s ‘frequency following’ response, encouraging the brainwaves to align to the frequency of a given beat.

This ‘frequency following’ response of brainwave entrainment can be seen in action with those prone to epilepsy. If a strobe flashes at their seizure frequency, the brain will ‘entrain’ to the flashing light, resulting in a seizure.

On the positive side, this same mechanism is commonly used to induce many brainwave states; such as a trance, enhanced focus, relaxation, meditation or sleep induction. The brainwave entrainment effectively pushes the entire brain into a certain state.

Brainwave entrainment works for almost everyone. It is a great way to lead your mind into states that you might usually have difficulty reaching, allowing you to experience what those states feel like.

THE HYPE
There is a lot of marketing hype around brainwave entrainment. It is sold with promises of increasing IQ, promoting weight loss, ‘mind-tripping’, enhancing creativity, concentration, inducing spiritual states and more.

While these claims are not entirely true, they are not altogether false either. In practice, the claims are based on an overly-simplistic view of how the brain and the brainwaves function.
THE RUB
People are very seldom deficient in a certain brainwave type in all areas of their brain. Usually the distribution is much spottier, with an excess in one area and a deficiency in another.

We are all different, especially when it comes to the distribution of our brainwaves. Boosting a certain brainwave state may be beneficial for one person, and emotionally uncomfortable for another. Without knowing each person’s starting position, entrainment can be rather ‘hit and miss’.

If brainwave entrainment leaves you with unwanted side-effects (see below) or discomfort, you’re probably encouraging a range of brainwaves that are already excessive in some area of your brain. The way around this is to get a brain map to see what your brain’s strengths and weaknesses are, and see what (if any) brainwaves could use some encouragement.

It turns out that both Sony and Microsoft have some new patents for video games whereby the system will produce brainwaves affecting the player. For instance, a player who is in a battle scene would be sent brainwaves to make them feel scared, or insight their adrenaline to start racing. If they were involved in a video game depicting a test of perseverance, brainwaves of drowsiness might be sent into their mind or feelings of severe fatigue.

Now then, I’m not going to mention the future of what the pornography industry might do with such brainwave tricks, but I do think that there are other applications rather than just playing video games for focused frequency brainwaves. The United States Air Force has considered using things like this to help attack pilots stay alert during times of required concentration. That makes sense. But I ask, what happens when they start using these techniques in the Olympics? Let me give you a scenario here.

What if one runner is running the marathon, and very tired towards the end of the race, a competitor has their coach sitting with a focused energy brainwave machine, and points it at their athlete to incite their mind to ramping up for peak performance? In this case it is possible that that extra boost of brainwave energy could reignite and overcome the fatigue of the body, causing that individual to win the race.

What if these focused energy beams were used at NASCAR, with drivers towards the other race becoming very tired, but then allowing them to focus when it really mattered, and to have their adrenaline pumping at the proper rate along with their mind at full capability to have the advantage? What if college students started using this when studying a few days before their tests? What if politicians used this during their big debate, boosting their brainwaves to a super efficient level as if they were high on caffeine? Instantly recalling facts and figures and so quick of the mind that they were unstoppable.

It seems to me the world is changing, and we should realize that these new technologies will change the way our society operates, and how we do things. It might even be the new drug of the future. Of course it isn’t without its own set of challenges, what happens when people get addicted to that sensation, and they end up burning their brains out from overdosing with frequency bombardment? They want to add more, because they like the sensation, the rush, and the ability to think clearly at the top of their game.

Do you remember the Hollywood movie which came out recently; “Unlimited” and in that movie it was a pill, but in the future it may not be, it could be something entirely different, albeit with the same overall effect. Indeed I hope you will please consider all this and think on it.

It seems that every year at Christmas time there is always one toy that is a must have. The “in” toy creates a buzz, everyone is talking about it, you hear about it wherever you go and every kid wants it. This year, Mindflex is that toy. Made by Mattel for kids 8 and up this unique game was tagged over a month ago to be a hot selling item and it looks like it is living up to that hype.

Is It A Complicated Game?

No, the game itself is not complicated at all. The object of the game is very simple, move a ball around the obstacle course that you set up. Easy, right? The concept is very easy, but do you have the level of concentration that is needed?

Before you begin your play, you must put on the headset. Then, it’s all about your ability to focus and concentrate in order to move the ball. You see, Mindflex reads your brainwaves (to put a non-technical spin on it) in order to make the ball go around the game board. The game comes with five challenging mental tests: Chase the Lights, Danger Zone, Mental Marathon, ThoughtShot and Freestyle. These will challenge your ability to focus in different ways as you guide the ball around.

A Game With Benefits

Wow! A child’s game that actually comes with a benefit! How many games can you truly say have a positive benefit? You can probably count them on the fingers of one hand. The benefit of Mindflex is that the player must really develop their level of concentration in order to succeed. The game even comes with various exercises that you can practice in order to increase you concentration. I’ll bet your video game doesn’t do that! If you have a child that has difficulties concentrating or focusing, I would recommend this game. It will definitely be challenging and fun and you might even find that you get caught up in the action too!

It really is quite simple. Entrainment is the syncing of two vibrating systems. Here we are referring to your brain and an audio recording that simulates the waves your brain produces.

Once your brain enters an alpha-theta stage, all the unwanted, crazy noise of your conscious mind begins to fade. The 50,000 thoughts you have a day can become one. The one thought being what you want to manifest in your life. You have calmed a raging ocean and turned it into a tranquil pond. Can you not see how effective the Law of Attraction can be for you now?

Entrainment is most often accomplished by one of two methods – binaural beats or isochronic tones.

Binaural beats require the listener to wear headphones. A different tone is heard in each ear. The brain interprets the difference as a pulse or beat. For example one ear may hear a 200 hertz frequency and the other ear a 210 hertz frequency. The brain interprets this as the difference and hears just a 10 hertz frequency.

Isochronic tones turn a tone on and off to simulate the desired frequency. Isochronic tones are actually becoming more popular. Evidence is showing them to be more effective. Plus you don’t have to use headphones. But headphones are often recommended to eliminate background noise.

If you have had trouble in the past entering a meditative state then binaural beats or isochronic tones just may be the magic you have been looking for.

They are also so much better than subliminal messages. When listening to a subliminal recording you are limited to impressing upon your subconscious mind only what is on the recording. Using brainwave entrainment you can enter an altered state of consciousness and you decide what to “tell” your subconscious. One recording can be used for multiple purposes.

If you have never tried brainwave entrainment, especially isochronic tone, do so today. Don’t delay. You only have everything to lose and everything to gain.

It only takes six minutes for your brain to start entraining.

Brainwave entrainment is a natural phenomenon that occurs when your brainwaves fall into step with an outside stimulus, usually sound and/or light, changing its dominant frequency to match that of the stimulus’ frequency.

It happens naturally everyday.

When your mama sang you a lullaby, it wasn’t the words so much that put you to sleep. It was the tones emanating from her voice. Your brain matched its own wave frequency to the pattern produced by the tones (thank goodness it wasn’t the words–“the cradle will fall”–what’s up with that?). Before you could protest that you weren’t tired, all those alpha brainwaves had you lulled into a sweet, relaxed state.

And what happened the last time you went to an Ozzie concert? It didn’t take long for your brainwaves to duplicate the excited energy bursting from the magnificent bass guitar, did it? You felt charged and one with the sound.

That’s entrainment.

So what does it feel like when you listen to a designed brainwave entrainment session?

Well, to start off with, let’s find you a quiet place where you won’t be interrupted for at least 30 minutes. That means leave your phone in another room.

Okay now, sit or lie down…be comfortable. Loosen your clothes if they’re tugging at you. You don’t want a wedgy to distract you.
Put on a good pair of HEADPHONES. They are not necessary when using Isochronic Tones but they do ENHANCE the effect by blocking out any distractions….like a plane flying over, or the kids watching t.v. in the other room.
SHUT your eyes. This will immediately signal your brain to go into the alpha state and you will start to feel calm.
Relax your muscles. They will probably twitch here and there until they calm down.
Your nose, ears, or toe may itch. Anything that can itch, may itch. Ignore it and it will go away.
Your saliva production may speed up and you’ll swallow more…or you’ll drool…whatever is your norm.
You may experience hot flashes, even if you’re a guy.
Your eyes may dart back and forth like you are dreaming in REM.
You may notice your body feels heavy, just before you realize it is vibrating or non-existent. You are detaching, standing in the doorway between your conscious and subconscious self.
You are floating.
A flood of light or flashes of light fill your inner perspective.
Strange sounds like buzzing, droning, thunder, or the flapping of wings may draw your attention. You may even hear a voice.
Strong visual impressions with vivid colours and patterns may manifest–the presence of long deceased loved ones in strange landscapes could appear.
An intense state of euphoria and contentment rolls over you. You feel charged and tingly. Time passes in an instant.
Or, if you’re sleep deprived, you may fall asleep at this point–but no worries, you’ll still receive benefit from the entrainment. It takes practice and focused intention to stay awake.

And when it’s all over you’ll feel….

Good. Your brain has signaled your body to release serotonin, a”feel good” hormone.
Revitalized. Your body will be charged with a NEW energy.
High. You will experience a natural high from the release of endorphins.
Refreshed. You will feel like someone clicked your “refresh” button and you new again.
Clearheaded. Things won’t be so fuzzy now, or they won’t be such a problem. You can process information from a different perspective now…and it will bring relief.
Just Plain Happier. With new energy flowing through you, and all of your natural opiates coursing through your veins, how could you not feel happier.

So there you have it.

Brainwave entrainment, no matter what type of session you choose, will bring your mind to a higher level of operation and this is immediately reflected in your body and demeanor.

What is so cool about brainwave training, is that you can use it whenever you want.

You can experience whatever it is you desire…and its as easy as putting on your headphones and listening to your iPod.

You don’t need a prescription for this, and there are no ugly side effects.

AND IT FEELS GOOD.

It might not be such a big deal to other people but the truth of the matter is, the less peaceful sleep you have, the less are their chances on staying healthy. Medical research have shown that people who have less than 6 hours of sleep each day are more likely to have serious medical problems such as heart disease, lung cancer, diabetes and other forms of illness.

This is despite being physically fit and not being overweight. Not to mention, a lack of sleep can cause you to lose concentration in your work and can affect your relationship with your family since a lack of sleep can cause frustration and anger quite easily.

Yan Muckle SleepTracks Sleep Optimization Program is a natural insomnia cure that makes use of a new technology called brainwave entrainment.

Scientists have found that our brains electricity patterns varies when we are awake and when we are sleeping. Using an EEG (electroencephalograph), they can determine if a person is awake, sleeping lightly or deeply.

Yan has found that brainwaves can affect a person’s current state. Basically it means, it can help induce you to sleep deeply and without sleeping any kind of sleeping pills.

One of the biggest side effects of insomnia medication such as sleeping pills is that you can get addicted to them. There is a tendency for you to take more and more sleeping pills to get to sleep as you progress and it comes to a point where it can become dangerous due to overdose.

Yan Muckle Sleeptracks program will eliminate the dependency for sleeping pills. Sleeptracks is a series of audio mp3 programs that uses rhythms. As you listen to these rhythms, your brain will start to sync and matches itself to the rhythm. The mp3 rhythms are specifically designed to induce sleep pattern brainwaves so you can fall into a deep sleep.

All this is done naturally and there are no reported cases of side effects either. In fact, the chances of side effects are almost none since the mp3 are just basically reproducing the brainwaves most people have when they are sleeping.
