For Meditation, Happiness and Contentment - Lifting Your Mood with the Gamma Rhythm

This CD is one long track of a continuous Gamma Metronome sound. The Gamma frequency is associated with greater feelings of happiness and contentment. Evidence from recent studies suggests that the Gamma rhythm induces a lift in mood with people experiencing elevated levels of joy and a compassion for oneself and others. This is believed to be affected by the release of endorphins - the body's natural opiates.

Track 1: Gamma Metronome (70 min) - On this recording are many tones at different amplitudes with the overall effect giving a 40 per second frequency.

Benefits of the Gamma brainwave state:

  • Increased happiness and compassion - In June 2002 studies done by scientist Richard Davidson on Mattieu Ricard, a Fench-born monk from the Shechen Monastary in Katmandu, showed extraordinary elevated levels of Gamma oscillations in his brain when he was asked to meditate on "unconditional loving-kindness and compassion". Subsequent studies and investigations have shown that even short periods of meditation produce changes in the brain associated with increased levels of happiness and joy that are linked to elevated levels of the Gamma frequency.
  • Boosted intelligence and learning – people with higher levels of Gamma brainwaves are thought to show higher intelligence and an ability to learn quicker and process information at a greater rate.
  • Enhanced sensory perception – all the senses come alive with an increase in Gamma brainwaves. Our senses are perceived collectively giving you the ability to tune in more acutely to the real world and the changes that occur.
  • A unified perception of consciousness – in the Gamma state you can experience a holistic world view - a feeling of oneness with the universe and creation. This can lead to blissful states of consciousness.
  • A positive outlook on life and increased focus – All meditation can lead to a more positive outlook but the Gamma brainwave seems to elevate this even more and the benefits of greater focus and concentration naturally follows.

How to use the Gamma recording
Find a quiet place to sit or lie down making yourself comfortable. When listening to the recording the goal is to still the mind, let go of extraneous thoughts and relax into your space. You may like to concentrate on the silence between the sounds, which can help you focus and remain alert. While the best results come from a willingness to focus your attention, if you find yourself drifting off then don’t let it concern you - this can be part of the experience and may lead to insights and unusual perceptions. Acknowledge every experience you have. With practice, you will be able to slip into deeper states of meditation while remaining mindful and perceptively relaxed.

Research information on Brainwave States
Due to the collective electrical activity of neurons, the brain produces a resonant frequency measured in cycles per second or hertz (Hz) called a brainwave state. At any one time the brain produces all frequencies but collectively a dominant one can be measured. The brain is highly dynamic and during the day and night we pass through all states being dependent on our physical and mental activities.

Gamma (40+Hz) associated with a lift in mood, happiness, intelligence and greater feeings of love for oneself and others.
Beta (14+Hz) - everyday working conscious state - as you read these lines you are most likely in the Beta state.
Alpha (7-14Hz) - a calm relaxed state. Occurs while daydreaming and during light meditation but can also occur when one is focused and mentally alert. Has links to dreaming during sleep, simple problem solving and a positive outlook on life.
Theta (4-7Hz) - for deep meditation, relaxation and exploring psychic phenomena. Associated with creative insight, flashes of intuition, advanced problem solving, altered states, better sleep and boosting immune system function.
Delta (1-4Hz) - associated with deep sleep and body healing but also linked to benefits of deep meditative states such as profound visions, bliss altered states.

Research using techniques known as Biofeedback has shown that an external stimulus (such as the repetitive metronome tone) induces the brain to match the resonant frequency. This enables the subject to access the different levels of brainwave activity. Many people have shown that through practice they can maintain consciousness while accessing the benefits of being in any of these states. These include deep relaxation; more energy and better sleep; enhanced focus and concentration; accelerated learning;  feelings of joy, happiness and compassion; body healing; plus phenomena associated with altered states of consciousness such as out of body experiences, feeling of rebirth, vivid dream recall, an explosion in creativity, strange time/space occurrences and many others.
