EPISODE SUMMARY:

I’m sure you have heard or used the expression “I had a brainwave”. But while this saying refers more to the fact that you or someone may have had a great idea or some light bulb moment, brainwaves are a real thing.

Brainwaves are patterns, created by constant electrical activity in the brain, that influence your mood, emotions and performance. They also determine if you are focused, relaxed, creative or even asleep.

This episode will introduce the five known and researched brain waves, their frequencies, associated states, functions, other important aspects and with the final section of how to shift between brainwave states.
