Thinking Bliss

The brain is an electrochemical organ using electromagnetic energy to function. Electrical activity emanating from the brain is displayed in the form of brainwaves. There are four categories of these brainwaves. They range from the high amplitude, low frequency delta to the low amplitude, high frequency beta.

BETA - 13-30 cycles per second – awake & aware this is an extroverted state where one is concentrating or thinking logically. This is also a state of active conversation or debate.  A person making a speech, teaching, or hosting would all be in beta when they are engaged in their work.

ALPHA - 7-13 cycles per second - relaxation times, non-arousal, meditation, hypnosis

THETA - 4-7 cycles per second - day dreaming, dreaming, creativity, meditation, paranormal phenomena, out of body experiences, ESP, shamanic journeys.

DELTA - 1.5-4 or less cycles per second - deep dreamless sleep

Theta experience: ever drive for a while, daydreaming perhaps & suddenly you arrive& forget how you got there? Or are engaged in some activity that is so repetitive its automatic….like you are operating on auto-pilot? That’s a theta state. Do you ever find you do best thinking or get the best ideas in the shower or going to the bathroom? The physical act is so automatic, your brain is able to disengage and suddenly inspiration comes. These times often feel inspired, divine, or pleasant. That’s the Theta Wave Bliss. That’s the goal of meditators.

The techniques available here today are ones that train your mind to the Theta wave. Even after your meditation is long over, you will feel its positive effects linger. You will be open to more wisdom-based reactions to the day-to-day situations that pop up, and will find less resistance in all areas of your life, heath and overall well-being. 

Above all the science of brainwaves etc….the ultimate experience is a spiritual one. It’s the quieting of the physical/human to facilitate the song of the soul/divine.
