to two different frequencies in each ear leads to a third tone that can alter brainwaves for better sleep. <span class=\"credit\">kieferpix \u2013

relaxation.<\/p>\n<p>There are <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/nin.nl\/about-the-brain\/brain-waves\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">five main brainwaves<\/a> classified by frequency and measured by the number of vibrations or waves per second that correspond to different states of mind:<\/p>\n<aside class=\"single__inline-module alignright\">\n\t<\/aside>\n<ul>\n<li>Delta (0.5 to 4 Hz) happens during deep sleep<\/li>\n<li>Theta (4 to 8 Hz) is associated with drowsiness, falling asleep or meditation<\/li>\n<li>Alpha (8 to 14 Hz) happens while awake but relaxed<\/li>\n<li>Beta (14 to 38 Hz) is linked to active thinking and problem-solving<\/li>\n<li>Gamma (38 to 80 Hz), the fastest waves that happen during intense focus<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Some evidence that these psychoacoustic phenomena actually help sleep is fairly limited, but other research has shown promising results.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/16115248\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Early research<\/a> suggested that it can help people fall asleep and relieve anxiety.<\/p>\n<p>One study using binaural beats at a <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC6165862\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">frequency of 3 Hz<\/a> induced delta brainwaves, which lengthened stage three sleep, or deep sleep, necessary for feeling well-rested in the morning.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/23862643\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">another study<\/a> found that tones ranging from 2 Hz to 8 Hz improved quality of sleep and helped participants wake up more easily and less groggy.<\/p>\n<p>Better sleep is paramount to health \u2014 not logging enough hours can lead to a shorter life expectancy.<\/p>\n<p>Poor sleep can also raise your risk\u00a0of chronic health problems like heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes and obesity.<\/p>\n<p>There are numerous binaural beat soundtracks available online, as well as CDs and audio files that may be mixed with white noise for a relaxing environment.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share
