What is BrainTap?

 Your brain naturally follows rhythms and patterns, and it will do just that with the lights and tones being delivered through the audio file and headset. As the light and tone frequencies change, so does the frequency in your brain. 

When playing any of the sessions, you get drawn into a state of mindfulness, focusing on the present moment, so you can remove yourself from the daily hassles of day-to-day living. As you disconnect from the day’s mind chatter, you will gain a new, fuller awareness of self, as is experienced during deep meditation. Dissociation can happen at any time as you’re listening, depending upon the algorithms built into the session, but usually occurs at around 7 minutes.

Your breathing will slow and become rhythmic, your hands warm and your will muscles relax. The limbic system is involved in motivation, emotion, learning, and memory.

People in a depressed mood tend to have low levels of serotonin and norepinephrine, often brought on by the stress response. Audio/visual stimulation has been shown to boost brain levels of serotonin, beta-endorphins and norepinephrine, which naturally occur when you reach the relaxation response, to improve overall well-being.
