ADHD Focus
How to Use
Put on headphones and start the session before beginning your task. The SMR frequencies work best when you are actively engaged in a task, not passively listening. Keep working throughout the session.
How It Works
ADHD is associated with reduced beta power and excess theta — your brain struggles to maintain the alert, focused state that beta represents. This session targets the sensorimotor rhythm (SMR, 12-15 Hz) — the specific beta frequency used in neurofeedback treatment for ADHD. SMR training helps regulate attention by strengthening the brain's ability to maintain calm focus. The binaural beats encourage your brain to produce more SMR activity, mimicking the neurofeedback protocols that have clinical evidence for improving sustained attention in ADHD.
Frequency Guide
This session uses the sensorimotor rhythm (SMR) band at 12-15 Hz. SMR is the frequency range most consistently shown to help with attention in ADHD research. The session gently ramps from 10 Hz alpha to 13 Hz SMR, holds at 14 Hz, then returns.
Science & Research
SMR neurofeedback (12-15 Hz) is the most evidence-based frequency training for ADHD. A 2014 meta-analysis found that SMR neurofeedback produced clinically meaningful improvements in inattention. Binaural beats at these frequencies may produce similar entrainment effects.
