Brainwaves
The brain is an electrochemical organ made up of approximately 100 billion cells called neurons that are connected to each other forming a complex network through which neurons communicate with each other by means of electrical impulses, which when sent simultaneously generate what we know as Brain Waves, since their voltage rises and falls like a wave. The brain is capable of generating up to 10 watts of electrical energy. These electrical impulses change according to what you are doing, thinking and feeling at each moment and are the root of all your thoughts, emotions and behaviors. Brain waves have different speeds or frequencies of vibration, each frequency is related to different states of consciousness and attention ranging from deep sleep, tranquility, daily activity, learning or problem-solving states, anxiety, anguish and anger to spiritual peace, meditation, happiness, abundance, love, joy and all other states of attention, consciousness and emotions that we humans have. The speed or frequency of vibration of the brain's electrical waves is measured in cycles per second, that is, how many electrical signals the brain produces every second. The symbol that describes this speed of vibration per second is called Hertz or abbreviated as » Hz «. Each and every one of these states of consciousness is directly related to a specific frequency of vibration of the brain waves. The electrical vibrations of the brain are divided into five different «frequency bands» or ranges of vibration speeds, ranging from slow waves to fast waves, each of which is related to specific states of consciousness and attention, these are:
Delta Waves - 0.5 to 3 Hz

They are the slowest, and are generated in the deepest states of meditation and when you sleep without dreaming.

In this state you disconnect from the consciousness of the outside world and enter into a deep state of healing and inner regeneration, this is an essential state for your healing processes.

Theta Waves - 3 to 8 Hz

They occur while you are extremely relaxed, or are beginning to fall asleep or wake up, as well as when you are in a state of deep meditation. In this state our senses turn away from the outside world and focus on the signals originating from within, generating dreams, intense images and intuition.

In this state is where you store the material of your fears and problems, but it is also the door to learning and memory, as well as hypnosis and mental reprogramming.

Alpha Waves - 8 to 12 Hz

They are present when you are calm and at the same time alert, in which your thoughts run smoothly and calmly, but at the same time it is not a state of meditation but a state of rest of your brain in which you are calmly in the present.

This state can be perceived as sublime, floating, light, peaceful and calm, it is a state that helps mental coordination, calmness, integration of mind and body and learning. In this state you can achieve the best performance in your activities.

Beta Waves - 12 to 38 Hz

These waves dominate your normal waking state, when your attention is directed toward tasks in the outside world.

Beta is associated with rapid brain activity, present when you are alert, attentive, solving problems, evaluating situations and making decisions, when you are immersed and focused in mental activities.

The Beta state should not be maintained for too long as it consumes a large amount of brain energy.

Gamma Waves - 38 to 42 Hz

These are the fastest and highest frequency waves, in which the brain processes and consolidates information simultaneously in different areas. They are associated with the formation of ideas, language, memory storage and various types of learning processes.

These waves pass through the brain so fast that you have to be calm to be able to connect with them.

The Gamma state is also related to expanded consciousness and spirituality.
