Safe ways to enter the alpha state:
Classic meditation. It requires some practice and time. Those who practice meditation regularly, at least a few minutes a day, learn to relax and enter the alpha state.
Neuroacoustic programs. By listening to neuroacoustic meditations (programs) you will synchronize the brain hemispheres. When you listen regularly to a program with embedded alpha-rhythm you will feel a surge of energy. You will experience better mood and an overall improvement in well-being. You do not need any effort or training. The alpha-rhythm begins to develop in a just few minutes after you start listening to a neuroacoustic program.
Yoga. Yoga makes it easy to immerse into the state of relaxation and boosts the alpha rhythm. Regular yoga exercises increase the alpha brain waves.
The technique of deep breathing is a method to saturate brain cells and the body with oxygen. If you use this technique in everyday life, your brain will produce the alpha rhythm automatically.
Visualization. Close your eyes, relax and start dreaming, drawing images, as the brain begins to develop alpha waves. Close your eyes for a few minutes, and imagine a sunny landscape or sea surface, the surf. These will be ideal conditions to induce the alpha state.
Hot bath relaxation. There is nothing better for relieving stress than a hot bath filled with aromas. The bath boosts alpha brain waves.
An outing to nature. Rustling leaves, murmuring water, crackling fire, raindrops, all this triggers the alpha state.
Sunbathing. Many enjoy sunbathing under the caressing sun on a warm coast, feeling the gentle rays of the sun enveloping the body. This feeling of deep relaxation arises from increasing alpha waves.
Dangerous ways to enter the alpha state:
Alcohol is the most dangerous way to boost alpha brain waves. People easily get used to relieving stress with alcohol. A person who needs a drink to relax suffers from a shortage of alpha brain waves. This is what causes people exposed to stress and anxiety to take alcohol regularly. When you consume alcohol the brain produces a huge volume of alpha waves and dulls your mind. There comes a false state of relaxation and tranquility.
Stimulation of alpha brain waves with neuroacoustic programs is the best way to fight alcohol and drug addiction.
Smoking. Smoking increases alpha rhythm but harms health.
Drugs. Drugs put a person into a trance. Alpha and theta activity increases. With the help of neuroacoustic stimulation, you can end drug addiction, there are scientifically proven methods to quit drug use.
Gluttony. When you eat a lot you stimulate the pleasure center in the brain and increase the alpha rhythm. Would you like to be overweight? You can boost alpha brain waves using better and safer methods.
