3 WHAT IS BRAINWAVE ENTRAINMENT 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. Any stable frequency evokes a cortical response. The brain synchronises its dominant brainwave frequency with that of the external stimulus. This is called Brainwave Entrainment. 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 missed. 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. The brain does not operate in just one single frequency; the full spectrum of brainwave frequencies are always running, all the time. The dominant frequency determines our mental state and entrainment temporarily shifts our mental state by boosting one frequency to be louder than the others. 2

4 History Brainwave entrainment is nothing new. Ceremonial chambers acoustically tuned to specific brainwave frequencies have been found dating back to the Bronze Age, and the ancient Greeks used flickering sunlight shining through a spinning wheel to induce altered states. Since the 1970 s, a wealth of brainwave entrainment techniques have developed using digitally encoded audio beats, strobe lights, or low-energy electromagnetic fields. Type of Brainwaves Alpha (8-12Hz) The alpha band was the first common feature of the brain recognised in EEG recordings. Alpha is the human brain s natural state of awake rest. When the eyes are closed, or blinked, there is an almost immediate increase in alpha activity, between 9.5Hz and 10.5Hz. Alpha is the easiest range to entrain to, in fact, 10Hz is the only frequency where large scale entrainment is highly likely to occur. Alpha is associated with detached thought and is ideal for contemplation, mindfulness meditation, CBT-type therapy, anxiety and stress reduction and general relaxation. Beta (>13Hz) Beta dominates while we are engaged in anything that holds our attention when concentrating, studying, solving problems, performing memory tasks, etc. Low beta activity, often associated with excess theta, is implicated in depression and ADD/ADHD, with the imbalance often occurring asymmetrically between the brain hemispheres. Beta sessions are ideal for any form of active thought and for increasing overall energy and motivation. Beta waves tend to be of much lower amplitude than alpha, and large scale entrainment appears to be unusual. Delta (<3Hz) Delta waves tend to be much larger than any of the others and arise spontaneously during deep sleep. There is some debate over whether delta can be entrained, however it occurs in deep meditation, and delta sessions can certainly be an aid in achieving delta meditation states. Although most dreams occur while theta dominates, during REM sleep, dreams can and do regularly occur during delta. It is very difficult to identify the boundaries between waking delta and sleep, leading to questions of whether a deep meditator, exhibiting high delta, is actually awake at all or whether they are in a state more akin to a lucid dream. Theta (4-7Hz) When theta dominates, we experience the dreamy state between sleep and wakefulness. At this time we are particularly open to suggestions, thus its application in hypnosis and NLP. Unusual states of consciousness abound here, with hypnagogia, lucid dreaming, OOBE, astral projection and suchlike being reported. Theta is excellent for meditation, and can be valuable in accessing deep memories. Excessive theta is associated with depression and ADD/ADHD whilst deficiency is implicated in addictive behaviours. 3

5 Some notes before using the sessions Do not use this device if you have epilepsy. Use these sessions in a quiet, comfortable place, free of distraction, in a chair or lying down. After starting the session, close your eyes and relax. Your eyes should be closed throughout the session. Do not use this device or any light therapy device at night time or at least few hours prior to your bedtime. Exposure to bright light at night time can disrupt your sleeping pattern. Keep the volume of your player at maximum while you playing the sessions. Keep the brightness of the device as high as it is comfortable for your eyes. During the sessions try to remain as calm and relaxed as possible. Refer to the Relaxation Guide in the Guide Notes for more information. The Warnings Do not use brainwave entrainment if you are prone to seizures (or if youíre pregnant, in case you are prone to seizures and unaware of it). Take extra caution if under 26 years of age, as the brain is still developing and is more sensitive. If the following general guidelines are followed, it will greatly limit your risk of discomfort. Don t overdo it; most cases of side-effects come after overuse. A fifteen minute session is sufficient to begin. Everyone reacts differently, and you will need to determine your sensitivity before jumping in. If you experience increased anxiety, convulsions, overwhelming subconscious images, nausea, headaches, dizziness or increased heartbeat, discontinue use immediately and permanently. Do not use brainwave entrainment if you have any brainwave hyper-arousal or instability symptoms. The warnings done, it must be said that the vast majority of people have no ill-effects from brainwave entrainment. The most common side-effect is simply feeling a little unusual for a while. 4

6 Artistic Connect With The Spirit World With Harmonics Theta, the state of mind we achieve when in a deep sleep, is just below the level Shaman consciousness is unlocked. Normally when you are near the state of shaman consciousness, you're unconscious and dreaming, so you can't understand or appreciate what's going on truly. Often dangerous rituals were implemented to induce this state in shaman students, but no more. Our unique programs naturally take you to the Low Theta range required so you can reach the area of your mind associated with astral travel, intuition, and spiritual awareness without losing the experience due to sleep. Our sessions are designed to bring your mind directly to the Low Theta state without the need for any practice or other influences. 1 - Raven Medicine 14.6 Hz Duration: 10:20 Shamanic drumming, shaker, and rattle to take you into a deep trance. This track uses AudioStrobe and Isochronic beats for brainwave entrainment at the frequency range of Low beta. Good for afternoon power naps and quick setups! 2 - Tranquility 18 Hz, 9 Hz Duration: 20:00 Start your day with focus and tranquility. This track uses AudioStrobe and Isochronic beats for brainwave entrainment at the frequency range of beta. 3 - Saturn's Gate 4.6 Hz Hz Duration: 31:00 This sound journey is a dynamic, experimental, atmospheric soundscape providing a backdrop for explorations beyond. Using methods from the practices of sonic mysticism, this set resonates Saturn's planetary tempo, frequency and symbol correspondences. This track uses AudioStrobe and Isochronic beats for brainwave entrainment in the frequency range of theta and beta. 4 - Spirit Guide 7.5 Hz,4.5 Hz Duration: 35:00 This frequency is said to be perfect for awareness of self and purpose and contact with spirit guides for direction. As a great side effect, this frequency is also perfect for enhancing creativity. This track uses AudioStrobe and Isochronic beats in the frequency range of alpha and theta for brainwave entrainment. 5 - Lam-Astral Seed Meditation (432 hz) 10.4 Hz Duration: 30:00 1-hour electronic ambient meditation. The 32.11hz tone throughout in 432hz tuning hz is the note C1 in 432hz tuning. This track uses AudioStrobe and Isochronic beats for brainwave entrainment in the frequency range of low beta. 5

7 Cognition Stay Alert Few things can be more frustrating than trying to focus on the task at hand only to find that your mind is drifting off and losing its ability to stay alert. There are many methods people use to improve their alertness and ability to stay "in the zone," but many of these do even more harm than good. You know that coffee and medication have several side effects, but did you know these side effects can sometimes impact the very things they are supposed to help you with? There's got to be a better way! Luckily, thanks to the power of our entrainment therapy there is! From birth on into old age we must retain our abilities to be alert. Every missed opportunity, every misheard word, and every moment of inaction can cost us valuable time and require us to eventually deal with problems we ordinarily would not have. By improving your own cognition you can take a task that would ordinarily take several days and accomplish it in one. Information immediately comes easily to the alert individual and removes barriers allowing each new bit to be put immediately in perspective. The world comes easier to the alert individual, and they are better able to make decisions based on their own abilities rather than solely on how much they were paying attention. *Note: These sessions can be used either to train your brain to be more alert long-term through repeated use or through an immediate boost in your alertness while using. 6 - Attention & Focus Hz Duration: 28:00 This is a low beta session designed to facilitate attention and focus while studying or working. 7 - Attention & Hyperactivity Help 13 & 18 Hz Duration: 25:00 This session is meant to speed up the brain while keeping the left hemisphere dominant (good for attention, concentration and reducing emotional response and hyperactivity). 8 - Brainstorming & Idea Generation (Random frequency) Duration: 15:00 This session acts to encourage new mental connections and the formation of new ideas. Instead of incorporating a highly structured protocol such as those used in most other sessions, this session jumps frequencies hundreds of times in an unpredictable and largely random fashion. 9 - Beta Stimulation 13 Hz to 20 Hz Duration: 25:00 This is a stimulating beta session using isochronic beats, audio strobe, and entrainment embedded into randomly generated sound Attention & Focus (brain healing) 20 Hz Duration: 20:00 This session is meant to speed up the brain while keeping the left hemisphere dominant (good for attention, concentration and reducing emotional response and hyperactivity). ADD and similar disorders are often characterized by "slow-wave" EEG patterns, particularly in the left frontal region. As such, this session stimulates the left brain hemisphere with Beta frequencies and the right with SMR. 6

8 Healing Get your daily dose An assessment of medical music research studies conducted in the 1980s showed that music had a significant impact on pulse rate, amount of pain medication required, perceived or observed pain, muscle relaxation, anxiety, stress hormone levels, blood pressure, mood and attitude, motor ability, and length of labor in childbirth. Recent studies also found that music improved immunity function, walking speed, exhalation strength, physical comfort, length of hospitalization, and satisfaction and contentment among patients undergoing medical treatment. Today, doctors and nurses are using music in clinics, hospitals, and hospices to facilitate treatment, control pain, and heal. At Kaiser Permanente in California, music is used to prep patients for surgery and chemotherapy and to help treat back pain, spinal injuries, high blood pressure, migraines, and ulcers. Other medical facilities from Beth Israel Hospital in Boston to Mount Zion in San Francisco have added music to their roster of treatment. Take a tip from the length of medical history and let brain tuning music help keep you well and weather the traumas of being sick Addiction & Dependency Reduction (Dissociative) 7.83 Hz & 15 Hz Duration: 35:00 This session reduces the urge to self-medicate by relaxing the listener and increasing Alpha and Theta waves (a common component of drugs and alcohol). This session also works to correct a brainwave deficiency commonly found in addictive personalities.this session also uses a technique called Dissociation to help particularly restless people relax Chronic Aches & Pains Relief 1 Hz Duration: 20:00 This session uses Sub-Delta (0-1 Hz) frequencies, which are theorized to have soothing effects on the limbic system, which operates at delta frequencies. This may be the reason delta frequencies can be so helpful with conditions involving chronic pain Chronic Aches & Pains Relief (Dissociative) 0-1 Hz Duration: 20:00 This session uses Sub-Delta (0-1 Hz) frequencies, which are theorized to have soothing effects on the limbic system - the amygdala and hypothalamus in particular, which themselves operate at delta frequencies. This may be the reason delta frequencies can be so helpful with conditions involving chronic pain, such as fibromyalgia. This session also uses a technique called Dissociation which is particularly useful for people who are restless and have trouble relaxing Fibromyalgia or Chronic Pain 1Hz & 8 Hz Duration: 25:00 This is a soothing sub-delta (0-1 Hz) session designed to help with fibromyalgia and chronic pain. Entrainment is provided by tone beats, audiostrobe, randomly generated wind chimes, and entrainment embedded into a sound file Immune System Support 6.5 Hz Duration: 40:00 This is a relaxing Alpha/Theta session designed to guide you to a stress-free, meditative state where the immune system is optimized Muscle Contraction Headache Relief 1-2 Hz Duration: 05:00 This is a session designed to relieve muscle contraction headaches using 1-3 Hz stimulation. It is based on a study by Solomon, in which a device using only photic (light) stimulation is used successfully to relieve this specific type of a headache. 7

9 Headache and Pain Remedy (Sessions No. 12 & 13 & 14 & 16) Headache Pain Relieved by the Brain Whether you feel a headache about to come on, or you're in the middle of what feels like a battle in your brain, just slip under the light, put on the headphones and let our Delta frequency calm every nerve in your head down. As your headache leaves you shortly thereafter, you will feel once again in control of your life. Best used just as a headache is approaching, but also good for those day long brain pounding aches brought on by stress. Note: Use these session with relatively lower brightness. Holistic Become Whole Since life began, the Earth has been surrounding and protecting all living things with a natural frequency pulsation of 7.83 HZóthe ancient Indian Rishis called OM. "Schumann Resonance" refers to the frequency of the electromagnetic field of the earth. Whether by coincidence or not, it also happens to be a very powerful frequency to use with brainwave entrainment. The discovery, from 1954, has spurred much research. We incorporated subtle Isochronic tones and light signals in the music. This frequency has been associated with high levels of hypnotizability, meditation, increased HGH levels and cerebral blood flow levels seem to be much higher while this frequency is being stimulated Mahamrityunjaya Mantra 174 Hz Solfeggio_ Pain Relief Hz Duration: 14:12 This frequency appears to be a natural anesthetic. It tends to reduce pain physically and energetically. 174 Hz frequency gives your organs a sense of security, safety, and love, encouraging them to do their best Healing Earth 7.83 Hz high Theta Duration: 25:00 This is a relaxing session stimulating with earth resonance at 7.83 Hz (Schumann Resonance) with isochronic beats, audiostrobe entrainment embedded into sound files Reiki Whale Healing 1 Hz Sub Delta Duration: 25:00 Reiki Whale Healing provides healing songs from the gentle giants of the deep echo throughout this unique collaboration of whale and man Schumann Resonance 7.83 Hz Duration: 30:00 This is a session which ramps down to the Schumann Resonance frequency of 7.83 Hz. Research done with Zen meditators shows that 7.83 is a significant frequency, and other research indicates that stimulating the Schumann frequency results in more blood flow to the brain than any other frequency. 8

10 Meditation Meditation State Reached Within Minutes Meditation begins when you move from the Beta every-day state to the Alpha state where your mind takes on a more powerful role in calculating, higher language function, and higher cognitive understanding. This is where problems arise for many beginning meditators. The Alpha state isn't easy to just naturally "achieve" out of nowhere, unless you know how to do it consciously. The very act of raising to an Alpha level can take years of study to achieve unless you have a point of reference. We offer that point of reference with our sessions so you actually go in the right direction when meditating, rather than just falling asleep. After mastering Alpha Meditation, you can progress to Theta. Originally, it may take weeks or even years to achieve this state, but with brainwave entrainment, you'll be able to achieve it without problem. Theta meditation entrainment lowers your brain wave patterning more, promoting a sense of peace, balance, and calm. Those who have mastered Theta meditation enjoy greater health, and a better understanding of the universal peace within us all Alpha for Visualization 10 Hz Duration: 30:00 This is an Alpha session which ramps down to 10 Hz or mid-alpha. This protocol is meant to put the listener into a relaxed, receptive state where mental imagery is more easily created and visualization techniques are more effective DNA Upgrade Hz Duration: 20:00 Calming Music based on Solfeggio Frequency of 528 Hz which is also known as the Love Frequency, Miracle Tone, Frequency of Transformation Pineal Gland Activation 16 Hz Duration: 22:00 Pineal Gland activation with 936Hz Solfeggio frequency, Brow Chakra 24 - Pineal Gland Stimulation 7.25 Hz Duration: 30:00 POWERFUL Pineal Gland stimulation with 936Hz Solfeggio frequency is associated with awakening intuition and activating Pineal Gland. 9

11 Mood An Antidepressant With No Side Effects Using music to treat depression was one of the original applications of the practice of music therapy. Musicís ability to induce both elated and depressed moods is clinically proven, and itís widely agreed that music operates at psychophysiological, emotional, aesthetic, social, cultural, and spiritual levels to help you have fun. But its mood-boosting power can also be more specific and useful than that. The elevating Brain Tuning music in this chapter stimulates optimism, breaks emotional paralysis, and provides a natural energy lift and an antidepressant with no side effects. It comes handy when you need help with: Temporary setbacks and sadness depression Negative or recurrent thoughts Overeating Shyness 25 - Cheer Up! 18 Hz Duration: 14:00 Do you need to wake up in the morning without copious cups of coffee? This should be the trick. Use this session in the morning as a caffeine replacement, or anytime you need an energy boost Mood support for persistent depression 20 Hz Duration: 30:00 This session helps to correct a hemispheric asymmetry that is common in depressed individuals. Persistently depressed people tend to have an overactive right (emotional) hemisphere. This session, therefore reduces activity in the right brain hemisphere, while increasing activity in the left, giving more control over to the left (logical) brain and reducing irrational and overly emotional thought patterns Mood Support for SAD 20 Hz Duration: 21:00 Depression is often grouped into a category called "slow-wave" disorders. Depressed individuals tend to have an overabundance of slow wave activity, such as Theta, particularly those with Seasonal Affective Disorder. This session attempts to correct this by speeding up your brainwaves, reducing slow wave activity and increasing blood flow to the brain. 10

12 Relaxation Beat Anxiety With Frequencies "Hey, just relax!" To someone suffering from anxiety, those words are unsympathetic and unhelpful. How could anyone possibly understand what it feels like to worry constantly? Those who have lived with it for a while understand the heart palpitations, fatigue, nausea, chest pains, stomach-aches, headaches, and depression associated with long-term anxiety. Those who have just started feeling it, find themselves immersed in a terrifying new world filled with uncertainty. Say it aloud: That world ends now. Anxiety is a general apprehension and fear that can't quite be defined. It's an uneasiness about a situation rather than a fear of something specific. Anxiety can be treated with drugs, but these often are addictive, have major side effects (including more anxiety), are expensive one use items, and can even damage your body and liver in the end. Worrying does nothing to help your situation, no matter what it is. Knowing that, you still know it's not as simple as just "relaxing," since your mind is so used to dealing with anxiety. Think of it like a broken switch that cannot be turned off. So it just keeps going over the same ground, blowing things entirely out of proportion. In your good moments you realize you're overreacting, and things can't possibly be that bad. So why do you find yourself doing it again and again? Your mind needs some help remembering what it's like to be relaxed and in charge. We can give you the tools to do just that so you can get back to having fun with your life Note: Listen and let your fears and worries slip off your shoulders. Visualize positive events and watch your whole outlook change for the better Anxiety Reduction (Dissociative) 8.4 Hz Duration: 35:00 This session uses Alpha stimulation to help relax the listener and alleviate anxiety and stress issues. In some cases, severe anxiety is also helped by Beta sessions, so the session also stimulates low beta at the end. This session also uses a technique called Dissociation which is particularly useful for people who are restless and have trouble relaxing Delta Waves - Music to Help you relax (Night Version) 1 Hz Hz Duration: 30:00 This is a simple sleep session that guides the mind slow down to a deep Delta state, with a stop at 7.83 Hz on the way to help rid the mind of excess chatter. Note: you can use this session at night time before you go to sleep. This session only uses the red spectrum of light and doesn't affect your circadian rhythm. * 30 - Sleep through the rain- low Delta (Night Version) 1.05 Hz Duration: 30:00 Relax or fall asleep with this soothing instrumental session. Note: you can use this session at night time before you go to sleep. This session only uses the red spectrum of light and doesn't affect your circadian rhythm. * 31 - Stress Relief 6.5 Hz Duration: 30:00 This session uses an Alpha/Theta protocol to quickly relieve stress and deeply relax the listener. Additionally, the session acts to train the user to have better control over their own mental states in the future using the SMR frequencies near the end Theta Relaxation with singing bowl 5.43 Hz Duration: 40:00 This track uses Tibetan singing bowl for meditation and relaxation, and it will help you reach the deep meditative mental state of Theta. 11

13 * Sleep Aid ( Sessions No. 29 & No.30 ) Sleep Easily With Low Delta Frequencies Sleeping pills are potentially habit forming, meaning you will need them every night or you won't be able to sleep. We have a program designed to help with addiction, but in the mean time our sleep program could help with the immediate problem. Even non habit-forming pills have the potential to be hazardous to your liver if taken over and over throughout the course of your life. Our program naturally guides you from the alpha to theta and then delta brain waves. This process is actually quite natural, and mimics natural healthy sleeping patterns. With our sleep program, it's no longer difficult to fall into a quick relaxation state and get started with important REM sleep. Rather than toss and turn for hours on end, just try the Night Version sessions at your bedtime. Almost immediately you'll enjoy a more relaxed state. Before you even know for sure that it's working, you will be quickly transported to that state of consciousness you've been desperately trying to get all night. Note: The Night Version sessions use only yellow and red light, which won't affect your circadian rhythm. Use these sessions with relatively lower brightness. Chakras The key Ingredient In All Spiritual Development Chakra Stimulation is an ancient art used by Practitioners of Yoga and Meditation experts to heighten spiritual awareness. Spiritual energy is the core of every ability you possess, and Chakras are the factories of this spiritual energy. In several ways, the Chakras are the most important thing to develop. The human nervous system is a network connecting the sensory organs to the brain. The Chakras, or energy centers, act as a "pump" which direct spiritual energy through this system. For example, Earth energy is drawn up through your Root Chakra and passed to the Sacral Chakra which is then passed to the Solar Plexus, then the heart, then throat, brow, and finally the crown. Once energy reaches beyond the crown, experiences and sensations move to realms beyond explanation. The Chakra system is considered by many to be the most important system to work on. It is a base on which most other development is built. The Chakra Stimulating system stimulates each of the seven Chakras with different frequency ranges and predetermined base frequencies. It has been reported to be extremely effective by users worldwide! The minds of yogis undergoing deep spiritual progression have been studied for years, and now by integrating our system into what we know of their brain patterns, we are able to give you the tools to reproduce their experiences. 12

14 33 - Root Chakra Duration: 15:00 Muladhara is related to instinct, security, survival and also to basic human potentiality. Physically, Muladhara governs sexuality, mentally it governs stability, emotionally it governs sensuality, and spiritually it governs a sense of security Sacral Chakra Duration: 15:00 This chakra is located in the sacrum and is considered to correspond to the testes or the ovaries that produce the various sex hormones involved in the reproductive cycle. Svadhisthana is also considered to be related to, more generally, the genitourinary system and the adrenals. The key issues involving Svadhishthana are relationships, violence, addictions, basic emotional needs, and pleasure. Physically, Svadisthana governs reproduction, mentally it governs creativity, emotionally it governs joy, and spiritually it governs enthusiasm Solar Plexus Chakra Duration: 15:00 Manipura is considered the center of dynamism, energy, willpower, and achievement (Itcha Shakti), which radiates prana throughout the entire human body. It is associated with the power of fire and digestion, as well as with the sense of sight and the action of movement. Manipura is "the center of etheric-psychic intuition: a vague or non-specific, sensual sense of knowing; a vague sense of size, shape, and intent of being." As such, some psychics recommend "listening" to it since it may help in making better decisions in one's life on many different levels Heart Chakra Duration: 15:00 Anahata is related to the thymus, located in the chest. The thymus is an element of the immune system as well as being part of the endocrine system. It is the site of maturation of the T cells responsible for fending off disease and may be adversely affected by stress. Anahata is related to the color green. Key issues involving Anahata involve complex emotions, compassion, tenderness, unconditional love, equilibrium, rejection and well-being. Physically Anahata governs circulation, emotionally it governs unconditional love for the self and others, mentally it governs passion, and spiritually it governs devotion Throat Chakra Duration: 15:00 Vishuddha may be understood as relating to communication and growth through expression. This chakra is paralleled to the thyroid, a gland that is also in the throat and which produces thyroid hormone, responsible for growth and maturation. Physically, Vishuddha governs communication, emotionally it governs independence, mentally it governs fluent thought, and spiritually, it governs a sense of security Brow Chakra Duration: 15:00 Ajna or third eye chakra is symbolized by a lotus with two petals and corresponds to the color indigo. It is at this point that the two side nadis Ida (yoga) and Pingala are said to terminate and merge with the central channel Sushumna, signifying the end of duality, the characteristic of being dual (e.g. light and dark, or male and female). The seed syllable for this chakra is the syllable OM, and the presiding deity is Ardhanarishvara, who is a half male, half female Shiva/Shakti. The Shakti goddess of Ajna is called Hakini Crown Chakra Duration: 15:00 Sahasrara or crown chakra is generally considered to be the state of pure consciousness; Nirvana, within which there is neither object nor subject. When the Kundalini energy rises to this point, it unites with the male Shiva energy, and a state of liberating samadhi is attained. Sahasrara involves inner wisdom. Its role may be envisioned somewhat similarly to that of the pituitary gland, which secretes hormones to communicate to the rest of the endocrine system and also connects to the central nervous system via the hypothalamus. According to Gary Osborn, the thalamus is thought to have a key role in the physical basis of consciousness and is the 'Bridal Chamber' mentioned in the Gnostic scriptures. Sahasrara inner aspect deals with the release of karma, physical action with meditation, mental action with universal consciousness and unity, and emotional action with "beingness." 13

15 40 - Seven Chakras meditation 432 Hz tuning Duration: 1:06:00 This track features music based on resonating frequency for each Chakra, with the root note frequency at the resonating frequency of each Chakra. Starting with root Chakra - the Muladhara - the foundation of all Chakras and moving all the way up to Crown Chakra - the Sahasrara. Sound Medicine Transform Your Life The Solfeggio frequencies have been known to help repair DNA. Research has shown that man typically uses less than 3% of his DNA. The rest are just there. The Solfeggio frequencies are effective because they work based on energy principles. You see, science ñparticularly quantum physics- has shown that every living thing vibrates at a particular frequency. The frequencies at which all things vibrate determine whether they are visible or not. All physical things currently vibrate at a very low frequency, hence the reason they can be seen with the naked eye. At the core of man is the vibrating energy that when imbalanced can result in illnesses and ailments. The Solfeggio frequencies incorporated into our program can help correct and relieve these maladies. Note: You can use these sessions with speakers positioned around you, so the healing sound can resonate with your whole body. The one thing most people who have used it say is that the frequencies resonated with them. What this means is that after a little exposure to the vibrations of these sessions, you could say they were vibrating at the same frequency which thus, restored them to a state of balance and hence, healing. When you are in the calm and centered state of mind that can be induced by our Solfeggio frequencies, you will experience holistic healing, higher mental and spiritual clarity, a feeling of purity, ease and unique problem solving capabilities. The Six Solfeggio Frequencies: UT Liberating Guilt and Fear RE Undoing Situations and Facilitating Change MI Transformation and Miracles (DNA Repair) FA Connecting/Relationships SOL Awakening Intuition LA Returning to Spiritual Order 41 - Sound Medicine Part one 6 Hz & 12 Hz Duration: 22:00 This track uses Audiostrobe and Isochronic beats embedded into a Solfeggio healing meditation music from Anima; celestial soundscapes of transformation & peace. 396Hz Release fear and emotional Patterns. 417 Hz Transmutation of negative energies. 14

16 42 - Sound Medicine Part two 7 Hz & 13 Hz Duration: 22:00 This track uses Audiostrobe and Isochronic beats for brainwave entrainment with a healing music from Anima which is tuned into ancient Solfeggio scale, to effectively change the frequency of user's brainwave into healing and meditative state. 528 Hz for transformation and miracles (DNA repair). 639 Hz for re-connecting and balancing, relationships. Suggested combination and time of use for improving your sleep quality and your performance MORNING Try any of the sessions in categories of Cognition or Mood which are in the frequency range of beta, to help you wake up sharp and fresh. A beta session in any time of day can work like a strong coffee! AFTERNOON Try any of the sessions in categories of Artistic and Holistic which are in frequency range of alpha, to help you become relaxed and energized. These sessions can work as a power nap! NIGHT Try sessions No. 29 and No. 30, which is made to use at nighttime, in the frequency range of delta. These sessions might not work as sleeping pills but helps you to entrain your brain into lower frequencies and hence achieving deeper sleep in the night time. *Note: These night version sessions, unlike other sessions, use only yellow and red light, which won't affect your circadian rhythm. Use these sessions with relatively lower brightness. Suggested sessions and time for meditation SUNRISE AND SUNSET Try any of the sessions in categories of Artistic, Holistic and Meditation. These sessions are made in the frequency range of delta and alpha which are associated with relaxed and deep meditative state of mind. 15

17 Frequently asked questions How can I choose a frequency or session that works for me? One of the most important things to learn about any therapy is that nothing works for everyone, and nothing works for one person 100% of the time. An EEG brain map can really help determine what will work best for yourself or your client. In the absence of that, start with a short session to determine a reaction. Alpha is generally a good, safe start, but people with depression or ADD problems may want to start with an SMR or short beta session instead. When will I notice the effect? The time it takes to see results will differ from person to person and will depend on the goals of the client. Sessions involving relaxation should relax the client gradually over 6-10 minutes. Relaxation is a very noticeable effect, whereas with a concentration session it may take a few sessions to realize what effect it is having. Also, some sessions are meant for long-term changes and for them it may take weeks or months to notice an effect. If results are not as expected, try adjusting the settings or using a different session. Different frequencies and different types of sessions will work for different people. Increasing the intensities of the entrainment filters may also be worth exploring in some cases. Can I use Enkidu at night time? We designed certain sessions to use especially at the night time. These Sessions only uses warm light and red light. This way it won't affect your circadian rhythm and your sleep pattern. Other sessions which use cold white or full spectrum light should not be used after sunset which can disrupt your sleeping time. Is it possible to use Enkidu for more than one person at the same time or even for larger groups? Yes, two people can easily share the experience. Either lying down or sitting next to each other. For a group of people, you need to put the light further away to cover a larger area which results in losing some of the light intensity and therefore the effect, especially in light therapy. In this case, you need to use two or more light boxes at the same time. Enkidu is designed in a way that allows you to connect multiple devices together and run all of them at the same time with synchronicity 16

18 Can Children use Enkidu light machine? Although most children love the experience, you need to be sure that they are not sensitive to flickering light which might cause seizures. we recommend them to be examined by a physician for epilepsy or illnesses that may contribute to seizures prior to the use of this device, as they are more susceptible to seizures. What is Audiostrobe? AudioStrobe is the standard way to communicate with mind machines in order to control the flashing of LEDs. It is an inaudible signal sent with the rest of the sound of your session. You will probably not be able to hear it, but any AudioStrobe-decoding device will be able to interpret that signal and use it to drive the flashing of LEDs. Because AudioStrobe uses sound to drive the LEDs, it can be used from any sound device, such as an ipod, CD player, or from the speaker/headphone port of your computer. What is Isochronic Beat? Any string of pulses separated by equal time periods. In AVS this term is applied to the beats heard when a carrier tone at a frequency usually referred to as the pitch, is amplitude modulated by another signal, the frequency of which is commonly referred to as the rate, or entrainment frequency. The shape of the modulating wave can be chosen to create a variety of effects, ranging from the smooth, gentle sine, through triangle, square, etc. to custom shapes that might sound like drumbeats, clicks, etc. Some studies indicate that the evoked response is stimulated on the leading edge of the pulse and steep rise times tend to be more effective in eliciting a response. Beats heard during a ramp between frequencies are, by definition, not isochronic, because the period between them is changing. Such beats, or any random or variable rate, are just plain pulses. What is 432 Hz tuning? A=432 Hz, known as Verdiís ëaí is an alternative tuning that is mathematically consistent with the universe. Music based on 432Hz transmits beneficial healing energy, because it is a pure tone of math fundamental to nature. According to Brian T. Collins, a musician and researcher, the standard pitch (A=440 Hz) does not harmonize on any level that corresponds to cosmic movement, rhythm, or natural vibration. The greatest musicians, such as Mozart and Verdi, based their music on the natural vibration of A=432. Itís true that it is only 8 vibrations per second different from the standard tuning, but this small difference seems to be remarkable to our human consciousness. Thereís a growing musical and metaphysical movement for recovering optimal integrity in the music industry and spirituality through the 432Hz tuning. In April 2008 Dutch journalist Richard Huisken founded the ëback to 432 Hzí committee, claiming that this original tuning was used in ancient cultures and is found on antique instruments like the Stradivarius violin. 17
