Relaxation
How to Use
Sit or lie comfortably with headphones. No special preparation needed. This session stays in the alpha range — you will feel relaxed but alert throughout. Great as a daily wind-down or pre-meditation warm-up.
How It Works
Alpha brainwaves (8-13 Hz) are your brain's natural resting state — present when you're calm but awake, like closing your eyes after a walk. This session holds you in the alpha range using binaural beats, reinforcing the rhythm your brain already produces during relaxation. Unlike deeper sessions that take you toward sleep, this one keeps you in that comfortable middle ground between alert and drowsy. It's the neurological equivalent of putting your brain in neutral.
Frequency Guide
Stays entirely within the alpha band: upper alpha (12 Hz) eases into mid alpha (10 Hz) and settles at low alpha (8.5 Hz) before returning. Alpha is the brain's natural relaxation frequency — calm but conscious.
Science & Research
Alpha brainwaves (8-13 Hz) are the dominant rhythm during relaxed wakefulness. They increase with closed eyes and decrease with anxiety. Alpha binaural beats have been shown to increase alpha power and reduce perceived stress across multiple studies.
