Binaural Beats / relax your mind

Binaural beats are an auditory illusion that occurs when two slightly different frequencies are played separately into each ear through headphones or speakers. The brain perceives a third tone, which is the difference in frequency between the two sounds. This effect is thought to influence brainwave activity, potentially promoting states of relaxation, focus, or meditation, depending on the frequency range used (delta, theta, alpha, beta, or gamma waves). Many people use binaural beats to aid in sleep, concentration, stress reduction, or as a tool in meditation and mindfulness practices.
