Bioresonance Therapy is very helpful. A Shutterstock Licensed Image.

Pseudoscience involving quantum scanners? Bioresonance therapy should be banned in the US? Medical science on the warpath against this groundbreaking healing modality? Woash! Let’s all settle down!

Each of us is born from stardust and then infused with a soul and a specific signature comprised of electromagnetic vibrations. Given that we embody and emanate electric current, it stands to reason that electromagnetic or vibrational therapy would be of benefit for a long list of our physical diseases, emotional challenges, and other ailments.

Functioning in ways similar to how adjacent guitar strings affect each other’s tone, electromagnetic waves are proven to be useful in diagnosing and treating human illness.​

While this effective modality might not be entirely curative in every category, many doctors, naturopaths, and patients have experienced Bioresonance to be a highly beneficial, complementary therapy.
Bioresonance therapy: does it work? You betcha.

“Our Bodies … Are Electromagnetic Machines. We Simply Can’t Move A Muscle Or Produce A Thought Without An Electrical Impulse – And Wherever There Is Electricity, A Magnetic Field Is Also Produced, Which Is Why We Link The Two Together Into One Word: Electromagnetic.”
― Ann Louise Gittleman

What Is Bioresonance Therapy?

Bioresonance therapy is often referred to as Electrodermal testing or evaluation, Bio-physical information therapy, BIT (Bio-energetic information therapy), Energy medicine, and Vibrational medicine. The premise of this therapy is based on the fact that electromagnetic currents emitted by diseased cells are noticeably unique when compared to healthy cells.

An energy wavelength machine, known as a Bicom device, determines the unhealthy wavelengths that are emanating from your body and emits a counter-balancing frequency to restore an individual’s energetic equilibrium.

Benefits Of Bioresonance Therapy

Bioresonance therapy has a growing list of benefits. As a result, every year there is an increase in discerning practitioners and grateful patients who believe in its healing properties.

Here is a general list of its benefits:

• Bioresonance therapy works with the natural flow of the body
• It’s non-invasive and without side effects
• It provides additional energy for people with low energy
• It will improve the overall frequency of the human body
• It improves mood and attitude
• The therapy is useful in physiotherapy
• It’s a helpful diagnostic tool for many illnesses

Additionally, Bioresonance therapy has been promoted as a useful or curative modality for the following:

• Allergies
• Food intolerance
• Digestive disorders
• Arthritis
• Back pain
• Degenerative discs
• Joint disorders
• Atopic dermatitis (eczema or red, itchy skin)
• Depression
• Tumor therapy
• Cancer support
• Organ problems
• Hormonal disorders
• Migraines
• Sports injuries
• Pre-operative and post-operative support
• Gum disease
• Low energy
• Chronic fatigue
• Osteoporosis
• Gynecological disorders, including painful menstrual periods
• Hair loss
• Obesity and weight loss programs
• Infections – bacterial, viral, fungal (candida, too)
• Thyroid disorders
• Cigarette and drug addiction
• Complementary therapy for a variety of other physical abnormalities

While several periodicals declare that Bioresonance has no scientific validity, include Dr. Weil’s website and quackwatch.org, there is a growing list of studies found on NIH.gov that state the exact opposite.

WebMD.com states: “There is no reliable scientific evidence that Bioresonance is an accurate indicator of medical conditions or diseases or effective treatment for any condition.” Many doctors, veterinarians, and naturopaths have evidence to the contrary.

While the scientific research on Bioresonance is expanding, it seems there are misunderstandings around one very simple idea: the universe is made of electric currents and infused with spirit. We are comprised of current; therefore current can help us heal. Here are a few interesting conclusions from recent studies:

• Bioresonance therapy can improve gastrointestinal problems.
• Bioresonance therapy is clinically effective in helping people stop smoking.
• Electromagnetic field treatment is helpful to patients with chronic lower back pain associated with degenerative discs.

It might also be interesting to note that Bioresonance therapy is listed with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, in their National Library of Medicine, where it’s been indexed under Complementary Therapy since 1989.​
Does Bioresonance Therapy Have Side Effects? No.

“Sensitivity to electromagnetic radiation is the emerging health problem of the 21st century. It is imperative health practitioners, governments, schools, and parents learn more about it. The human health stakes are significant”.
— William Rae MD

Bicom: The Bioresonance Therapy Machine

While the effectiveness of Bioresonance therapy machines is long disputed, more and more evidence is emerging, all derived from careful research and double-blind scientific trials.

It seems that the most popular Bioresonance devices are made by the German company, Regumed. Their two primary devices have been sold since 1987. Several medical companies and clinics also sell their machines. The Regumed devices, known as Bicom Optima and Bicom Optima mobile, store the electromagnetic frequency spectra of over 400 substances as frequency patterns.​
Controlled by computer software, often including a patient management system, this complementary treatment, and upgraded software can document patient treatment sessions and simplify billing.

​While the Optima is a stationary device, Optima mobile has all of the primary device’s therapeutic functions and can be used for practice visits or at home. It can also be quickly charged in a car.

The Origin Of Bioresonance Therapy

The original researchers and inventors of traditional Bioresonance therapy (for example, MORA, BICOM, etc.) are Frank Morell and Erich Rasche. The name “MORA” was born from the first two letters in their last names. In Morell’s and Rasche’s early experiments, they sourced an electromagnetic field within a human organism, and the rest is history.

Strangely, Morell had early ties to Scientology and was fascinated by the e-meters that the cult uses to test emotional trauma in their devotees. Morell believed these devices to have a purpose far more valuable to humankind than a manipulative, enrollment tactic. “With The Development Of Utility Electricity For The Masses In The 1900s, Very Few People Realize That A New Era Of Sickness And Disease Was Unleashed That Are Collectively Called Radiation Sickness.”
― Steven Magee

Bioresonance Therapy Cost

The cost of Bioresonance therapy is reasonable, falling on average between $75 and $175 per session, with the initial consultation being more expensive due to patient intake. Sessions are usually between 30 and 45 minutes.​
Given that every situation is unique and the intensity of a particular disease or abnormality might be severe, the total cost will depend on the number of required treatments prescribed over time.

Warnings

If you are uncomfortable with the claims of your therapy practitioner, do not engage their services. As with all naturopathic and alternative modalities, perform ample research so that you can make empowered, informed decisions.​

If your Bioresonance therapy session involves the use of a specific device, be aware that the ASA (the British Advertising Standards Authority) has issued warnings to several device companies about the unproven claims stated in their marketing materials.

​While the FDA has also banned some of these devices, the FDA website states that Bioresonance devices are within Class III, ”devices that use resistance measurements to diagnose and treat various diseases.”

Bioresonance Therapy Reviews

Perusing the posts on a variety of medical device and doctor websites, I see a long list of positive reviews. Hundreds, if not thousands of people have stated that Bioresonance therapy has been a game-changer for themselves or their families.

From chronic depression and Lyme disease to degenerative discs and eczema, patients around the world are standing behind their claims that Bioresonance therapy is a powerful tool for healing their most discomforting and challenging diseases.

Here is a breakdown of the 13,000+ Bioresonance therapy practitioners and professionals:

• 6500 Doctors
• 770 Dentists
• 5600 Naturopaths
• 700 Veterinarians
• 280 Veterinary Naturopaths

This list of professionals proves one significant thing: This powerful and curative modality is no longer a fad. Bioresonance therapy is healing, curative, and here to stay.

Spleens are beautiful! A Shutterstock Licensed Image.

Your beautiful, useful, little spleen is a vital organ found under the ribcage, in the upper left part of your abdomen. According to Western Medicine, your spleen is the largest organ in the lymphatic system, making spleen health crucial. It is sister to your tonsils, adenoids, and thymus. Helpful to your digestion and immune system, your spleen is like a youth hostel for the different aspects of your blood.

Your lymphatic system is a compilation of tissues and organs that rid your body of waste, toxins, and other non-beneficial materials. Your “lymph” is a powerful fluid that contains white blood cells, the little warriors that fight infections. According to Western Medicine, the spleen keeps your bodily fluids in balance, yet it is possible to live without it. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) offers similar ideas, yet expands upon these premises.

There are many similarities between the attributes of Western Medicine and TCM perspectives. Rather than distill each as a separate pathway to spleen vitality, I’ve combined most of their similarities and offer suggestions on dietary and behavioral changes in support of your spleen’s health.

In all things related to your health, seek forward-thinking doctors, D.O.s, and naturopathic practitioners to advance your health and well-being.

What Is the Healthy Spleen’s Function?

As a filter for blood, and a hunter of harmful bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms, the spleen is vital to your health and immune system. While the spleen stores platelets (thrombocyte) and white blood cells, it also recycles your old and tired red blood cells. TCM dives a little deeper into the value and functions of the spleen, thereby giving us a broader, more specific, and more relatable picture.

How to Strengthen Your Spleen?

In TCM, your spleen does not have the same definition that you’ll find in western medicine, although both schools of thought appear to be more aligned than opposed. If we extrapolate from both methodologies, the spleen seems to be at least a vital partner to the stomach, and does the following:

Location of the spleen

• Digests information and environmental stimulus
• Assists in the digestion of food and converting it to energy
• Controls the blood
• Controls the muscles and the four limbs
• Influences transformation and transportation
• Connects with the lips and mouth
• Associates with enthusiasm, sadness, and worry
• Participates in digestive processes
• Houses the spirit and intellect
• Influences emotions
• Affects our minds and houses our thinking processes
• Controls our increasing energy (Qi)
• Provides warmth and vitality

In a society overloaded with messages and stimuli, our spleens tend to suffer. But through right-action, we can nurture our spleens into abundant health.

The spleen is akin to the Earth element and loves Summer through early Fall. Its Ayurvedic dosha is Kapha, which tends to be slow, conscious, thoughtful, careful, and grounded. When we allow ourselves to adopt some of these Kapha attributes during the Summer and Fall, we feed, heal, and nurture our spleens. To increase enthusiasm and positivity, consider researching Pitta Aggravated diets.

Sadly, given how overworked our minds, bodies, and lives are, most spleens are not always in balance. In TCM, the condition is called, “Spleen Qi Deficiency,” and it’s characterized by sadness, loose stools, fatigue, confusion, feelings of being overwhelmed, decreased vitality, weakened immunity, poor digestion, and feelings of defeat.

But wait, there’s more! You can protect your spleen’s health with just a few simple changes in diet and behavior. You’ll find 60 total ways to support your spleen within this article. Try these on for size:

1. Avoid cold drinks and ice in your beverages
2. Honor and express your emotions, especially sadness
3. Be mindful about your schedule and related stressors
4. Be careful when taking on new projects
5. Chew your food slowly and thoroughly
6. Eat warm, veggie-abundant soups and broths
7. Take breaks
8. Pause activities and thinking often
9. Try acupuncture and acupressure
10. Laugh to open the heart, and release tension and toxins
11. Pray to inspire hopefulness and positivity
12. Meditate to reduce worry, anxiety, or overthinking
13. Seek ways to “get over yourself” and reduce negative attitudes
14. Fake happiness until you embody aspects of happiness
15. Cuddle your loved-ones often

Foods That Support Your Healthy Spleen

Whether coming from Western Medicine or TCM, everybody seems to agree: Eating five small meals per day is healthier than eating three large meals, and adding spleen-friendly foods to your diet can turn your spleen into a heroic warrior.

Spleen aficionados suggest these foods for improving your spleen’s health:

1. Winter squash, carrot, rutabaga, parsnip, turnip, sweet potato, yam, pumpkin
2. Legumes like garbanzo beans, kidney beans, adzuki beans, lentils, black beans, and peas
3. Sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds
4. Seaweed and kelp
5. Green tea, jasmine tea, raspberry leaf tea, chai tea
6. Walnuts, chestnuts, pine nuts, pistachios
7. Aloe vera gel and juice
8. Grapes
9. Pomegranates
10. Ginger, pepper, cardamom, onions, garlic, cinnamon, clove, fennel, rosemary, sage, turmeric, thyme, horseradish, cayenne, and nutmeg
11. Instead of heavy sweets, try these less aggressive sweeteners to your diet: cooked fruits, rice syrup, barley malt, molasses, and stewed cherries
12. Add a little protein to every meal
13. Add a little bit of organic beef or bison to your weekly diet

Foods to Avoid Consuming for a Healthy Spleen

While many of these removal suggestions are helpful to your overall health, they are particularly beneficial for your spleen:

Depiction of the lymphatic system

• Cold, raw, and frozen foods
• Ice in your drinks
• Dairy
• Wheat
• Processed foods and refined flour
• Refined sugar
• Coffee
• Alcohol
• Peanuts and products like peanut butter
• Cucumber
• Winter melon
• Grapefruit
• Lettuce
• Bananas
• Avocados

How Do You Check Your Spleen?

Your doctor and your Ayurvedic and TCM practitioners will check to see if you have a healthy spleen or if it is enlarged during your next physical exam. By gently pressing on your upper left abdomen, your practitioner can learn a lot about your spleen. Your doctor might also suggest imaging and blood tests to help identify the causes of your enlarged or inflamed spleen.

Ayurvedic practitioners will check the pulse of the spleen, along with the pulses of other vital and symbiotic organs. As one of Earth’s oldest medical sciences, including Ayurvedic methodologies, can provide a wealth of information. The more informed we are, the better decisions we’ll make, especially when trying to improve our physical health and emotional well-being.

Each of Western, Chinese, and Ayurvedic disciplines will help you nurture your spleen back to a blissful state.

Causes of Weak Spleen and Problematic Symptoms

According to Western science, many conditions can cause an enlargement of it. These include a variety of infections, Parasites, Anemia, Leukemia, Hepatitis, Jaundice, Malaria, Liver disease, and some Cancers. Some of the symptoms of a weak spleen might include:

• Pain in the upper left abdomen
• Pain or discomfort in the left shoulder
• Feeling full without eating
• Fatigue
• Frequent infections
• Bloating and gas
• Weak limbs
• Little desire to speak
• Prolonged headache
• Dizziness
• Tired eyes

Herbs and Supplements for a Healthy Spleen

The company Standard Process has several products that help the immune system. They also sell excellent products directed at the spleens, most notably, “Spleen Desiccated.” These types of products are finding their ways into western medical research and are showing encouraging outcomes when compared to pharmaceuticals and other types of supplements. Consider researching bovine and porcine concentrated, desiccated spleen extracts to improve the health of your spleen.

Other supplements include products directed at the adrenals, thymus, Qi, and reducing stress. Consider that when the liver is overburdened, the spleen is under excess pressure to perform. You’ll find that liver supplements and trace minerals might also be beneficial to your spleen.

Traditional Chinese Medicine tells us that the following herbs can be helpful to your spleen:

1. Astragalus (黄芪)
2. Ginseng (人参)
3. Codonopsis (丹参)
4. Chinese Yam (Huai Shan)
5. White Atractylodes ( 白术)
6. Licorice (甘草)

Naturopathic doctors might also encourage you to incorporate herbs such as Dandelion, New Jersey Tea, Barberry, and Iris into your health strategy.

While every instance of a weak spleen might require an individual regiment, the Ayurvedic supplements that might support your spleen, include:

• Ashwagandha
• Turmeric
• Holy Basil
• Gotu Kola
• Shilajit
• Brahmi
• Trikatu
• Triphala
• Sandalwood
• Cordyceps
• Cloves Bud
• Amla Fruit

Each of us has a unique set of emotions, environmental influences, and karmic attributes that filter through our spirits and physical bodies. When seeking improvements to our health and well-being, it’s beneficial to do lots of research and invite the counsel of medical, healing, and spiritual professionals.

While TCM, Western Medicine, and Ayurvedic Medicine each offer unique perspectives, the best solution is the one that works for you. Research each of the pathways outlined here to find the solution that brings you the most vitality and vibrancy. You might find that a combination of these methodologies to be your most successful pathway to an empowered spleen and abundant health.

EMF Radiations can impact our health. A Shutterstock Licensed Image.

For a company to push innovation forward, they must first lobby for laws in their favor. Sometimes they lobby for the removal of laws. It’s all about what most serves their wealthy board members, shareholders, and revenue.​

Industries like pharmaceuticals, dairy, manufacturing, energy, and wireless tech, plus many more, spend billions of dollars annually to successfully protect their agendas, pay packages, and profits through lobbying.

We might think that the government prioritizes our best interests, but this is rarely the case, and the rush to allow an unregulated 5G wireless infrastructure is a prime example of this. Which is why you should know how to protect yourself from 5G and EMF radiation.

How Tech Innovation Works

1. Companies unearth an idea that’s years ahead of its time.
2. The moment they file a patent, they hire lobbyists to set the stage for their technology’s success, whether it’s dangerous to the public or not.
3. Tech is built-in stealth. Testing is limited. The focus is on profit.
4. Through lobbying, secret payoffs, mutually self-serving deals, and insane incentives, laws are gutted and rushed. The public has little choice in the matter. In the end, everybody loses.

Because we have no laws in place that genuinely protect humanity from greed, and many regulations that glorify the corporation, the agendas of technology companies will continue to supersede the health of the planet and all living-beings for years to come.

What Are EMFs, And Why Do We Care About 5G Radiation Dangers?

An electron is a subatomic particle that’s charged with negative electricity. This is how electricity is delivered throughout the world. An electromagnetic field, often referred to as an EMF, is born when electrons begin to accelerate. Upon movement, charged particles create fields. The realm of this field, the range of frequencies of radiation, is known as its radiation spectrum. When compared to the cute little spectrums of radio frequencies, 5G’s radiation spectrum is a beast.

5G (or 5th Generation) technology refers to the latest trend in wireless systems, involving larger channels, higher speeds, and the ability to connect a host of devices from one location. As related to EMFs, having 5G in your neighborhood is like turning on a microwave oven in every room of your house, and opening all the oven doors.​
With 5G towers and mini-stations being installed throughout every city and neighborhood, we appear to be building a global microwave oven. Oh, and I forgot to mention: microwaves cause cancer.

There has been minimal testing of the effects of 5G, but over 180 scientists in 40 countries have already proclaimed, “Stop 5G. It could kill us.” At the very least, 5G can cause nausea, hair loss, depression, confusion, and infection. Short of a revolution, 5G will evolve into 10G, and so on. These futuristic technology companies aren’t to blame; it’s our individual and collective addictions to our devices that have brought us here.

How To Shield Yourself From 5g

Since there’s little chance of a significant shift in how these types of technologies are tested and approved, the only thing we can do is prepare for the onslaught of radioactive frequencies. If we research like scientists and establish protective plans, we can mitigate EMFs and their effects on our health.

Here is a comprehensive list of how you can protect yourself:

1. PURCHASE EMF SHIELDS: Purchase an EMF shield, and continue to measure the levels of radiation within 100 feet of your home. Research all the consumer products in this category so that you can protect yourself as much as possible.
2. STAY EDUCATED: Continually educate yourself about the wireless industry and the global, governmental support of this insane endeavor.
3. TECH TIME-OUT: Refrain from using your cell phone for long periods of time, including never keeping your cell phone in your bedroom. If possible, keep your mobile devices five to ten feet away from you. When traveling with your cell phone, store it in an EMF protective bag.
4. BE PROACTIVE & STAY OUT OF FEAR: Remain positive and strong, and continue to improve your vibration through positive thinking, forgiveness, and with increased attention toward mental, emotional, and physical health.
5. LEARN TO GROW YOUR FOOD: Food born from our soil can improve our vibrations. Our vibrations are akin to electromagnetic fields because they birth fields of energy and light that inhabit and surround our bodies, which can protect us. Many enlightened masters have said that it is time for the pendulum to swing the other way, in that, we must learn to break our dependencies on manufactured food. We must learn to grow lettuce, potatoes, carrots, fruit, and more. Amma, The Hugging Saint, once said to me, “To start, learn to grow enough food for one day per week. Over time, you can learn to do more.”
6. LOVE: Focus on loving yourself and your family. Love has a profound effect on our health. It also can shield us from darkness, negative energy, and quite possibly, EMFs. Spiritual masters have been embodying love for centuries. A few examples include Jesus, Mother Mary, Buddha, Guanyin, Krishna, Amma (there have been many), Lau Tzu, Guru Nanak, Paramahansa Yogananda, and many more.
7. EAT SUNLIGHT: We often forget how powerful sunlight is for our health. In addition to Vitamin D, super powders and supergrasses can drastically improve our energy, immune systems, emotions, and overall health. They’re infused with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties. Try some of these and monitor how your physical and emotional bodies improve: Barley grass, Chlorella, Alfalfa herb, Wheatgrass, Moringa (drumstick/horseradish tree), and Spirulina. The nutrients found in these powerful foods can quickly improve our health and vibrations.
8. SUPERFOODS: Superfoods can quicken your healing and improve your body’s ability to protect itself. Here are some of the most nutrient-filled vegetables, legumes, nuts and seeds on planet earth: kale, Swiss chard, collard greens, turnip greens, spinach, raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, green tea, eggs, turmeric, garlic, ginger, lentils, peas, peanuts, alfalfa, pecans, pistachios, walnuts, cashews, Brazil nuts, macadamia nuts, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, flaxseeds, hemp seeds, kefir, yogurt, sweet potatoes, mushrooms, and seaweed.
9. EARTHING: Spend at least two hours in the forest every week. Trees absorb our negative energies, improve our immune systems, and nourish our hearts and souls. Hugging a tree and walking barefoot in the woods can change your health, mind, attitude, thoughts, and intentions, and therefore, your current life-trajectory. Connecting with the earth in this way feeds our meridians and electromagnetic systems, which in turn can protect and empower us.
10. CRYSTALS: Consider purchasing Orgonite, which reportedly scatters electromagnetic fields and turns them into beneficial ones. Dr. Wilhelm Reich developed this unique composite. Elite Shungite is an equally powerful, EMF resistant stone. Crystals, gems, and stones are living beings. Talk to them, love them, infuse them with light – and they will do the same for you.
11. CHOOSE YOUR HOME WISELY: If possible, do not live near a cell tower or mini-station. Also, get involved in local politics so that you can learn about all of the potentially dangerous plans your city council has in store for you.

We all know that it’s not solely about 5G. There’s fluoride in our water, carcinogens in our farming processes, and insidious greed at the foundation of our health industry. There is no turning back without a thoughtful, conscious, non-violent revolution.

The only way we can evolve is to become educated, proactive, and self-sufficient. If we do these things correctly, we can reduce our dependencies on corporate and government systems, which would reduce their profits and decrease our personal expenses. While being little sheep feels cute and heartwarming, sometimes it’s vital to become the wolf.

Isochronic Tones are the rage. A Shutterstock Licensed Image.

The brain is experiencing quite the renaissance as of late. Not only has brain research become more easily accessible and immediately applicable, but the implications of the latest research are pointing to a wonderful outcome: we now know that specific locations in the brain can be pinpointed, accessed, addressed, flooded with light to heal symptoms, and healed through the emission of sound.

What’s even more compelling is that several categories of brain research are inspiring the creation of accessible and wearable technologies that can help soothe and heal the brain, along with other parts of the body. The brain is no longer an anomaly. It’s now scientifically proven that when the brain is nurtured by light, sound, and frequencies, it passes that healing along to the whole system.

“If You Want To Find The Secrets Of The Universe,
Think In Terms Of Energy, Frequency, And Vibration.”
– Nikola Tesla

It’s All About Light & Sound

Sound therapy has come a long way since its new-age hippie roots. Sound Therapy is now utilized by a variety of global organizations and businesses. This includes business offices, hotel chains, medical facilities, universities, and a variety of treatment programs, as an effective treatment to alleviate pain and depression, lower blood pressure, overcome feelings of stress, improve learning, improve balance, and promote physical and mental endurance.
According to the Mayo Clinic, light therapy treats seasonal depression and other conditions by exposing a person to artificial light. During light therapy, the individual sits or works near a device called a light therapy box, which comes in a variety of forms, shapes, and sizes.

If you’re into frequencies and healing through sound and vibration, you’ll want to research everything you can about Sound Wave Therapy. It’s not only healing sleep deprivation, it’s been reported to improve focus and take the edges off depression. Within Sound Wave Therapy is audio-based brainwave entrainment (or just brain entrainment), which has become one of the hottest topics in transformative technology.

Brain entrainment is a simple idea with remarkable implications: communicate with the brain using audio and light, and the mind and body will respond. After all, each of us is comprised of light and sound. Many believe that, over time, this therapeutic category will also be responsible for healing a long list of physical problems, although scientific research is at an early stage.

“If you look at the anatomy, the structure, the function,
there’s nothing in the universe that’s more beautiful,
that’s more complex, than the human brain.”
– Keith Black (Discover magazine, April, 2004)

What Are Isochronic Tones?

If you’ve heard of binaural beats, you may have learned about its younger cousin, isochronic tones. These tones are defined by a single tone being turned on and turned off in rapid successions, like pulses. Imagine putting on a headset and listening to regular beats of a single tone. This is known as isochronic.

While it might sound monotonous, if done correctly and if emitted within the most successful parameters, listening to this simple set of sounds can reduce your stress, boost your immune system, and help you achieve a meditative state. Isochronic tones are part of a compelling trio that also includes binaural and monaural beats.

What Are Binaural Beats?

Binaural beats is an auditory experience whereby the receiver listens dichotically (a unique frequency in each ear), where each frequency is lower than 1500 Hz, and the difference between the frequencies is lower than 40 Hz. The tones inherent in binaural beats can vary.

What Are Monaural Beats?

The sounds of monaural beats and binaural beats are similar, except that monaural beats are more specific. They consist of two separate, steady tones produced and mixed externally.

Isochronic Tones Vs Binaural Beats

Isochronic tones are a form of binaural beats and are considered a subset. While binaural beats include a variety of tones, isochronic tones are specifically a single, repeated tone, constructed and emitted in the form of pulses.

Do Isochronic Tones Work?

According to several scientific trials, isochronic tones and binaural/monaural beats alleviate pain and reduce stress. Given that these modalities are helpful to people who have challenges sleeping, in some circles, they are affectionately known as sleep tones and sleep beats.

What Is Transformative Technology?

The definition of “transformative technology” has evolved. While it was once a fairly nebulous term related to different facets of everyday life, it’s now more pinpointed toward the idea that as we create and evolve new technologies, we must consider the lives, hearts, and minds of every species on planet Earth. Transformative technology now lives at the intersection of robotics, artificial intelligence, and the evolution of consciousness.

A leader at the intersection of tech and consciousness, and the co-founder of The Transformative Technologies Conference, Rui Ma has a mission. She recently shared, “…competence, autonomy and psychological relatedness are basic psychological needs that are necessary for well-being. Another concept

I’m fascinated by is beneficence – or the sense of being able to give to others. We have theories on what makes people flourish, not just what their systems “want,” but what we know are core psychological needs for people to lead a “good life”. What if we built companies around that?”

Light and Sound Technologies

There is a new wave of tech being birthed, known as transformative technologies. This category has come a long way. When it started in the late 1990s, the yield was poorly developed contraptions that made outlandish promises including brain growth, healing cancer, and doubling the IQ. It was a lot of snake oil backed by fascinating, abject hyperbole. Transformative technology’s early origin gave it a poor reputation and nearly broke it.

More recently, science has stepped in and started punching holes in the ideologies behind this category of theories and products, not to dismantle it, but to improve upon it. What they’re finding is that the premises behind transformative tech are not so penetrable. Since healing technologies are becoming more grounded in reality, science has changed its tune. It’s now more easily proven that light and sound can positively affect (heal) the mind and body.

What’s On The Horizon?

We know that the brain is not only fragile but also responsive and sensitive to external input. Its function is not solely information storage and retrieval. The brain can be accessed and healed through unique codes comprised of sound and light.
If science and light/sound technologists can work together to quickly iterate on theories and accessible technologies, we might learn that the brain is a key variable in the healing of some of our most elusive abnormalities and diseases.

We are at a pivotal point in the history and potential trajectories of technology. Until recently, consciousness and technology have evolved on two separate, independent tracks. If we can align them, if we can encourage deep and advanced dialogues between them, we will see immeasurable advancements in the human condition.

When this occurs on a global scale, technology will be of service to humanity, rather than the other way around.

When the final trickle of sadness evaporated, I became a fan of binaural beats therapy. In just 15 minutes, the unscientific new-age-ness of it all had evaporated and was immediately replaced by a measurable, grounded, and healing experience. I was more relaxed and I felt as though my brain and heart went through a (healing) car wash.

Recently on the fringe of alternative medicine, binaural beats returned to the scene with the backing of double-blind scientific trials, and a long list of brilliant supporters, including scientists, doctors, healers, and patients. What was originally thought to be a fluke in the early ear and brain quasi-experiments has become a powerful, if not profound, treatment for depression and anxiety, and potentially, a variety of physical conditions.

The binaural beats modality is the latest to emerge in “frequency medicine,” a broad category of healing techniques that tune to our body’s rhythms, patterns, sounds, and vibrations in order to gently guide, nurture, and improve them.

Binaural beats are essentially brain entrainment and live under the umbrella of Sound Wave Therapy, which some practitioners and therapists are using for everything from healing seasonal sadness disorder and improving sleep deprivation, to increasing IQ and even helping erectile dysfunction.

Do Binaural Beats Work? You Betcha.

Binaural Beats: What Is It?

The word binaural comes from the Latin, “with both ears.” The broad definition of binaural beats therapy is: when a person is presented with an audio stimulus, there is a change in their brain activity. More specifically, binaural beats are an auditory experience whereby the receiver listens in a dichotic manner (a unique frequency in each ear), where each frequency is lower than 1500 Hz, and the difference between the two frequencies is lower than 40 Hz.

Because of this dissonance, the listener perceives a cadence or beat that is absent from the audio being played. This can produce a meditative experience whereby the mind, heart, and body become more relaxed. The belief is that if our bodies and hearts are relaxed, they stand a better chance of healing. In most cases, the audio or music file being played in a binaural beats session is melodic, peaceful, and enjoyable.

Some scientists have called binaural beats “tech meds” or “digital drugs,” and they might be right. Patients and devotees of binaural beats say the experience is akin to meditating for 30 minutes, smoking marijuana, or ingesting a small amount of CBD oil. In all, binaural beats certainly aren’t dangerous and seem to have the potential to help millions of people.

Binaural Beats: How Does It Work?

Brain entrainment occurs when audio or light stimuli are used to coax our minds and hearts into new states of relating to our bodies and spirits. In other areas of science, entrainment occurs when a fluid attaches to and drags other fluids or solids along with it. It can be said that entrainment is where one element inspires other elements to attach to or follow it.

In Jungian psychology, this can be represented by “matching and leading,” whereby the therapist validates and mirrors specific phrases and behaviors in the patient, and then over time, makes healthy adjustments to these phrases and behaviors, thereby matching the patients and leading them to more conscious states of being.

In binaural beats therapy sessions, patients sit comfortably or lay on their backs. The practitioner places headphones on the patient and then plays a series of audio files. Some binaural beats music is melodic and hummable, and some is more akin to ambient, new-age electronic music.
During the session, a FitBit or similar device is used to measure heart rate and brain activity. In most scenarios, the results are clear and decisive: binaural beats therapy is a powerful modality for relaxation and healing.

• Increased life enjoyment
• Binaural Beat Science

While many claim to experience changes in physical conditions, scientific studies are still a little vague on this point. Additionally, science has recently found that binaural beats might not produce any effect on the personality, which this reader finds hard to believe.
One scientist reports that, because the thalamus is not affected during most binaural beat therapy sessions, any improvement in physical, emotional, or mental conditions could be limited, and difficult to prove. Not all the science points to binaural beats being the new cure-all, but most of the tests show measurable improvements in emotion and mind states.

Some of the more clever healers and practitioners out there are trying to find their own groove and unique value proposition in the market. As such, there is now a variety of repackaged and rebranded binaural beat therapies. While each one seems to march to its own drum, when compared to the basic tenets of binaural beat therapy, their offers are essentially the same.

The military has increased its investment in experimental technologies, especially tech focused on relaxation and mind/body control. This has tremendous and widespread implications because when the military invests, the business world tends to follow. We’ll see a variety of devices that produce effects similar to binaural beats in the coming months. Body and mind-enhancing tech is finally here to stay.

As binaural beats therapy evolves and as more research is funded, nuances in treatments, technologies, and methodologies will emerge. At present, the results and trends are promising.

Binaural Beat Technologies

If you’re hankering for a hunk of binaural beats tech, there is an emerging pile of technologies that will satiate both eardrums, and more. Here is a list of the headphones with the effective frequency responses for the therapeutic implementation of binaural beats.

• Bose QuietComfort 35
• Audio-Technica ATH-M50x
• Sennheiser HD 202 II
• CozyPhones Sleep Headphones
• Shure SE215-K Sound Isolating Earphones

If you’re into binaural beats science, you might try the Muse and Muse2, which, according to their website, sells “immersive meditation devices that provide real-time feedback on mental activity, heart rate, breathing, and body movements. I love the Muse and Muse2. I have both of them and have found them to be extremely effective for mental, emotional, and physical health improvements.

If you’re interested in the future of humans and consciousness-tech, including binaural beats technologies, check out the Transformative Technologies Conference. It’s an unusually comprehensive event featuring brilliant scientists and those interested in advancing human consciousness.

Binaural Beats In Summary

The Dalai Lama once said, “It takes a long time for me to settle into a deep meditation. If you can invent a device that will help me get into a deep meditative space, I will use it.”
While much of the transformative technologies space is still in early experimentation, the trends in research and the recent release of a long list of products point to a massive paradigm shift. Not only are the emerging technologies aimed at pacifying and healing pained and anxious spirits, they are also hoping to heal the body.

In a matter of five years, this category of technology went from “fru-fru-woo-woo” to powerfully and thoughtfully embedded in scientific research and trials. The next five years will astound us.

Many scientists (artificial intelligence, hardware/software, data science, etc.) who are in the conscious-tech space believe heart rate and brain waves are the key doorways that will lead us to meditative states and improved physical conditions.

While vibrational, energy and sound healers have believed in (and proven) the power of induced relaxation for centuries, so far, scientific research is still playing catch-up. The belief is simple: When our spirits are peaceful and aligned, our bodies will follow.
