Binaural Beats for Lucid Dreaming

Binaural beats dramatically improve your ability to wake up in dreams and generally explore different levels of conscious reality. I highly recommend them for lucid dreamers and other altered states explorers.

Read on for my top picks among Hemi Sync, Mind Sync, Brain Sync, Holo Sync and Unexplainable Store.

Brainwave entrainment CDs are ideal if you seek meditation on demand. You have valuable opportunities to enter deeper conscious states just before waking up in the morning. Just set your alarm 30 minutes early and pop on your headphones. It's a great way to start the day.

How Does it Work?

The human brain goes through many frequency cycles during every day. Each has a different effect on your level of consciousness. So you can enter altered states on demand by gently guiding your internal frequencies.

However, the ear itself doesn't react to frequencies below 20 Hz. So binaural beat technology was created. It works by playing two separate frequencies into each ear (eg, 100Hz in the left ear, and 110Hz in the right). Your brain compensates for the difference, and creates an internal frequency of exactly 10Hz - thereby tuning you into a 10Hz operating state.

This diagram from the pioneer of binaural beats, Hemi Sync, illustrates the effect of brainwave entrainment:

How Does it Affect the Body?

This has an amazing effect on the mind and body. Within minutes of listening to binaural beats for the first time, you can expect:

• Your body to feel heavy and deeply relaxed
• Vivid visualizations, colors and patterns
• Separation of the conscious and subconscious mind
• Total relief from anxiety and stress
• A feeling of sedation or total weightlessness

There is no evidence to suggest binaural beats are dangerous, since we touch upon these frequencies every day as we fall asleep. However, you must never listen to them while operating machinery.

Below are the most powerful brainwave entrainment products I have come across. Follow the links to read more articles and access free samples.

Hemi Sync is the original brainwave entrainment product line. Created by the Monroe Institute, Hemi Sync uses a variety of altered brainwave frequencies, music and hypnosis to guide you into deeply relaxed meditative states. The range of Hemi Sync meditation CDs use binaural beats to produce altered states of awareness in anyone who listens to them. I have been using Hemi Sync for over 7 years, and it has brought many direct benefits.

Mind Sync

Mind Sync is a no-nonsense brainwave entrainment product. It has a huge range of binaural beats MP3s - from lucid dreaming to astral projection to remote viewing. There are also some fascinating meditation CDs like manifestation and speed learning. The Mind Sync lucid dreaming MP3 is ideal for inducing Wake Initiated Lucid Dreams and Dream Initiated Lucid Dreams. The white noise is similar to the sound made by a Tibetan bowl. In the background is the sound of the sea.

It is used in hospitals and recommended by doctors and psychologists around the world.

Holosync

Holosync is a set of powerful meditation CDs for personal growth. It claims to be the most revolutionary mind development tool on the planet! I can't say I've tested every program to verify this but I can say it had a very positive effect on me. Newbies to Holosync should look at the Awakening Prologue. This is a stunning introduction to the power of meditation. Listen to it every day for profound inner change.

Unexplainable Store is a product-specific range of CDs and MP3s based on brainwave frequency harmonics. (If you hadn't guessed, that's another term for binaural beats or brainwave entrainment.)
