How Do I Know My Brain Falls Into The Beta, Alpha, Theta, And
Delta State?
BETA State:
This usually occurs in your daily activities provided that
you're not resting or sleeping.
You're definitely awake, attentive and alert. Your brain is
highly tuned and focused. It makes you respond quickly in your
activity.
In the Beta state, the brain neurons fire up in great number and
in rapid succession. The purpose is to heighten your
performance. The downside of it is that you will not have
intuition.
If excessive High Beta brain waves are created, it can result in
anxiety and panic.
ALPHA State:
The brisk patterns of Beta will slow down into mellow waves of
Alpha.
In the Alpha state, you're very relaxed. And your awareness of
surrounding expands. A creative energy is about to explode as
the state approaches near Theta. You'll have flashes of new
ideas and solutions to problems. But most people won't able to
grasp it unless the mind state is near Theta. Besides this
result, you'll experience a sense of peace and well being.
When Alpha state becomes more dominant, the left brain activity
usually drops it function to act as filter or censor to the
subconscious. The intuitive, emotional and creative parts of the
mind become increasingly influential.
Wonder why people buy stuff base on their emotions unwittingly?
Because salesmen knows how to inject a soothing sales process to
the mind. It appeals to the subconscious mind which can only be
activated when the environment is positively warm and peaceful.
THETA State:
At this state, your mind slows almost to the point of deep sleep.
Theta is the brain state where hidden and unexplainable power is
awaken. It brings forward crystal clear dreamlike imagery,
increased receptivity, the lost memories and surges of
inspiration.
In the deep state of Theta meditation, some people can
experience a sensation of suspension or floatation. This happens
when the state is just at the beginning - The sensory input of
the body is almost detached from the brain. But it is fully
conscious of the surrounding. The dormant brain reaches its peak
of unseen productivity because most energy is distributed to it.
DELTA State:
The slowest of all brain wave frequencies, Delta brain waves are
long, deep and undulating, most commonly associated with deep
dreamless sleep. Your deep Delta state of brain wave activity is
one of harmonious relaxation, where both sides of the brain work
in synchronization. The Delta state promotes accelerated
physical healing.
