When the Brain Tuners are simultaneously sounded - one in the left ear and the other in the right ear - the two hemispheres of the brain function together to integrate the two sounds, creating a third, different tone called a binaural beat. When the Fundamental Brain Tuner tuning fork is sounded with a Delta, Theta, Alpha, Beta or Gamma tuning fork the difference between the two tuning forks creates a binaural beat which is heard as a pulsation. The binaural beat gently signals the brain to shift into a different state of consciousness.

When we go through a 24-hour cycle, we shift into different states of consciousness determined by our life requirements. One can visualize a car that shifts into different gears as necessary to meet the requirements of the road, i.e. a low gear for pick up and climbing hills, a medium gear for slow driving, and a high gear for highway cruising. In a similar way, living our life requires shifting into "different gears" for different situations.

The Amazing Spiritual Benefits of the Gamma Brain Waves!

Gamma brain waves are the fastest brainwave frequency with the smallest amplitude.

They are associated with the “feeling of blessings” reported by experienced meditators, such as monks and nuns. Gamma waves are associated with peak concentration and high levels of cognitive functioning.

Neuroscientists believe that gamma waves are able to link information from all parts of the brain.

The gamma wave originates in the thalamus and moves from the back of the brain to the front and back again 40 times per second. This rapid “full sweep” action makes the gamma state one of peak mental and physical performance. Gamma is the brainwave state of being “in the zone.”

Methods to Sound the Tuners

One method for sounding the Brain Tuners is called "the knee tap":

Hold your tuning forks by the stems with moderate pressure - not to tight and not to loose. Do not hold your tuning forks by the prongs because the prongs need to vibrate in order to create the sound.

Gently tap the flat side of the tuning fork on your knee cap. Do not hit your kneecap. All it takes is a gentle firm tap and your tuning fork will sound. You can also use an activator.

It is best to tap the Fundamental Brain Tuner on one knee and then the Delta, Theta, Alpha, Beta or Gamma Brain Tuner the other knee.

Bring the forks slowly to your ears, about 3 to six inches from your ear canal, and listen to the sounds.

Another Method is to use another object on which to tap the forks such as the sole of a tennis shoe, a hard rubber ball, or similar surface. For the 2 forks to sound independently, it is best not to tap them together.

Gamma (31+ Hz)

• Associated with peak concentration, sensory perception, and heightened cognitive function.

Beta (14-30 Hz)

• Supports high alertness, hand-eye coordination, and visual acuity.

Alpha (9-13 Hz)

• The state of relaxed awareness, creativity, and introspection.

Theta (4-8 Hz)

• A deep meditative state known for vivid imagery and heightened intuition.

Delta (Below 4 Hz)

• Deep sleep state connected to healing and revitalization.
