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.

We all have bad habits. This is the reality of the world today. The cigarette industry is a multi billion dollar a year industry which has roped in more than 1 billion people into its web of addiction. We don’t need to smoke. There is no physical benefit in smoking. Science has proven that it is the main cause of 4 types of cancers and more than 30 other types of ailments. Science has also proven without a shadow of a doubt that there are more than 1,000 toxic elements within the cigarette that people are ingesting with each puff.
Why do we still do it? Why, in the face of all these facts, the face of all the deaths in the world do we still maintain this habit, no matter how much we want to quit. This is a premier example of subconscious addiction. The drug is not in the cigarette and nicotine is not even the main cause of this constant craving for smoking. The feeling that we think we get whenever we smoke is all down to the brain ‘remembering’ and ‘enforcing’ and ‘augmenting’ the feelings we have, in a constant cycle that finally becomes a craving that leads to an addiction. We can’t stop because our subconscious – the most powerful controlling agent in our body, is telling us we must smoke to feel good.
So how do we change? How do we do subconscious reprogramming to change life for the better and kick the habit for good? The answer is brainwave entrainment technology and it is a phenomenon that has been picking up speed ever since it was introduced.
This cause for addiction is the same for everything we do. We overeat not because we are hungry; we do drugs not because we need to. Everything we are hooked on is the result of our mind telling us that we need to smoke, need to eat again and need to do that thing that is damaging us.
The solution is to reach into our mind and remove the messages of addiction that is branded with fire in our subconscious mind and the only way to do this is with brainwave entrainment technology. It places the mind in a state of meditation that shuts down the defences of the conscious mind and gives us access to the subconscious.
The entrainment technology than induces an electromagnetic frequency response that makes the subconscious open for reprogramming. It sounds easy because it is easy, one you are in that state you are able to use the power of positive and powerful messages to start you on the road to a better life. Find the root of the problem and change it from there, this is how subconscious reprogramming can change your life for the better.
There are all sorts of brainwave entrainment technology out there for you to choose from and they come in simple forms – even the form of a CD. There is no excuse for you not to try it.
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.
