Brainwave entrainment refers to the use of external sound stimuli to produce a frequency following response of brainwaves, matching the frequency of the external stimuli.


The result is a focused, whole-brain state known as hemispheric synchronization, where the left and right hemispheres are working together in a state of coherence.

Since the earliest days of the Monroe Institute, sound has played a principal role in helping people reach and explore the powerful states of expanded awareness.
The Awakened Mind™ is a unique brainwave state that is represented by a distinct shift in brainwave patterns and the quality of experience. This pattern has been well documented in the 1960s by Maxwell Cade, who discovered it while monitoring the brainwaves of experienced meditators and yogis, using an EEG instrument called the Mind Mirror.

Real time EEG reflects the user’s state of consciousness, allowing to adjust mental activities to reach clarity, creativity, insight, intuition and spiritual awareness goals through a neurofeedback process.
