Binaural Beats Not Working!!!

Postby obinob » Mon Sep 01, 2008 3:07 pm
My friends and I recently started using BB. All of them are having a great time with it, but it doesn't seem to work for me. I just end up feeling drowsy. Any ideas?

[EDIT]
Three girls I know have tried BBs. All of them have ended up crying. Whats happening?????? THe boys that have tried it seem fine.

I don't know about the girls crying, but as far as feeling drowsy I had this experience when I first started using bbs. I started with Holosync, and the support materials say that even falling asleep can happen initially if your brain is being pushed.

You do hear the beating right? Not really everybody hears them, due to neurological problems, age, or else.
To enhance the effect you should try to sit comfortable and relaxed, and focus on the beatings keeping your thoughts lightweight, not caring too much of them, on what you feel on when you'll start feeling something, etc...
just enjoy the relax and focus on the music. If nothing happens, no problem you just used an half an hour for yourself, to meditate a bit. Good for you.
If you get entrained, even better, your meditation will be deeper and more peaceful.

Please consider that a big part in your friend's feeling "high" is probably played by a placebo effect, as for the emotional exploit of the girls. Many people has such a superficial knowledge of theirself that any little insight moment, deeply touches them, e.g. causing a cry.

Try again some times, as many as you feel confortable with. If you still only get drowsy, you'd better find something else to play with, like a good oldstyle meditation course (or, if you're on the fun side of it, a travel to Amsterdam :mrgreen: )

try:

-try to minimize any other noise (next door trimming edge etc)
-lying down in your bed, close your curtains
-use good quality headphones/earphones
-clear your mind before listening by couting to 10 slowly and thinking of nothing - you decide when your ready
-make sure you're relaxed
-whle listening, don't move - this distracts your brain and will weaken the effects
-lie flat, legs stretched, arms on either side not touching your body, legs not crossed

keep trying - sometimes effects strengthen after a few times

good luck

that's a good position too! It's used in many psychologic relaxation techniques. Less meditative but maybe more effective!

Thanks for the advice, I'll give it a go.

Interesting thought on the girls crying Joram, makes sense :)

Cheers

Effects varies for different people. And the effects also varies depending on the state of mind at the moment while you are listening to it. At first you might feel that it's not working. But you have to condition your mind prior to you lsitening the beats. I listen to BB couple of times a week. But it hasn't made me cried yet. The effect that it has to me, is that it clears my mind and calms me down.
