Train Your Brain To Work For You, Not Against You

“Don’t worry be happy, things will work out fine”

“You need to think positive thoughts!”

“Be positive!” or “Be happy and you will be happy!”

“Trust God, you are not alone”

“What is the matter with you or what is wrong with you!?”

“Just snap out of it!”

How many times all your well meaning friends, relatives and family members said those words to you when you were not at your best?, when you don’t even know why you were feeling depressed easily and get affected by events, and the happenings so easily?

Those are all well meaning words and advice nonetheless, but there is a missing link. What is the missing link?

I didn’t know why and what was the missing link when I was going through those bolts of depression. I thought I was the most positive person around, because I love reading and listening to positive stuffs. Nothing wrong with those positive stuffs, but what I didn’t know was…there is a missing link in my brain !

I love all the positive stuffs, and who wouldn’t? But are those positive stuffs helping at all.? I would say it does, but it only help on the surface and not at the root.

As I have mentioned, my parents hardly give us encouragements, or say anything that are praiseworthy. So when I spoke affirmations over myself, my subconscious mind, silently and automatically rejected those positive words.

Even though I was such, I did manage to do pretty well in my previous career and was enjoying my life. But I also got into many situations that I didn’t understand why, especially in the area of relationships.

I had a few relationships that ended because of self-sabotaging. What I saw and heard during childhood, how my parents fought and quarreled frequently, and those negative words from my mother, had affected my views on relationships and myself.

I called off the last relationship and didn’t understand why I did that. However, today I am not here to tell you how I broke off with my ex boyfriend, I am impressed to share with you about the power of Brainwave Technology. Huh… what is that? I am not an expert on Brainwaves, but I am certainly someone who has greatly benefited from these technologies.

It has altered my brainwaves to a state of calmness, creativeness, happiness, alertness and also helped me to be more positive about things around me and myself. It has helped me to stop those unwanted mind chatters. You know what I am talking about, those negative mind chatters that kept coming back, no matter how you yell STOP! or GO AWAY!

In fact the more you place your energy on those thoughts, the more it appears. And even if you think you are not placing your energy to those negative thoughts, actually you are.

Recently my dear friend Lorraine Cohen’s Radio talk show, invited Guy Finley for an interview. I learned something interesting from Guy. He gave a technique to test out how by resisting something is actually making it worse.

Here is the test.

Put your two palms together. Start by using your left hand so that you are pushing your right hand. Then use your right hand to resist by pushing your left hand back. When your right hand is resisting the left hand by trying to pushing it away, your right hand is moving towards the directions of the left hand? So by resisting it, it is actually giving the energy and attention to the left hand.

Wow! that is a very good example to use for describing the problem I was facing. The more I yell STOP! GO AWAY! the more it manifest! That is crazy isn’t it?

Now I don’t yell STOP! But I just let it be OK…I already know what is the cause of the root problem, it was all in my subconscious mind. So now what I need to do, is to alter the state of my brain, so that it will know how to accept all the positive things I input now.

I use the Alpha and Theta stage of the Brainwaves, to relax my brain, and I combine these with those Hypnotic words and listen to them every single night. I also use other different stage of brainwaves for different part of the day.

By the way, instead of telling someone “Just snap out of it!, I suggest you recommend the person to read about brainwave information and how to get help. Because by just telling the person “Just snap out of it!’, it won’t help much if the root problem is not dealt with.

If you are curious what is Brainwave Technology and Brainwave Entrainment, here are some information for you.

What are Brainwaves?

Your brain is made up of billions of brain cells called neurons, which use electricity to communicate with each other. The combination of millions of neurons sending signals at once produces an enormous amount of electrical activity in the brain, which can be detected using sensitive medical equipment (such as an EEG), measuring electricity levels over areas of the scalp.

The combination of electrical activity of the brain is commonly called a Brainwave pattern, because of its cyclic, “wave-like” nature.

Below is one of the first recordings of brain activity.

Here is a more modern EEG recording:

Brainwave Frequencies

With the discovery of brainwaves came the discovery that electrical activity in the brain will change depending on what the person is doing. For instance, the brainwaves of a sleeping person are vastly different than the brainwaves of someone wide awake. Over the years, more sensitive equipment has brought us closer to figuring out exactly what brainwaves represent and with that, what they mean about a person’s health and state of mind.

The Significance of Brainwaves

You can tell a lot about a person simply by observing their brainwave patterns. For example, anxious people tend to produce an overabundance of high Beta waves while people with depression tend to produce an overabundance of slower Alpha/Theta brainwaves.

Researchers have found that not only are brainwaves representative of mental state, but they can be stimulated to change a person’s mental state, and even help treat a variety of mental disorders. Certain Brainwave patterns can even be used to access exotic or extraordinary experiences such as “lucid dreaming” or ultra-realistic visualization.

What Is Brainwave Entrainment?

Brainwave Entrainment refers to the brain’s electrical response to rhythmic sensory stimulation, such as pulses of sound or light.

When the brain is given a stimulus, through the ears, eyes or other senses, it emits an electrical charge in response, called a Cortical Evoked Response (shown below). These electrical responses travel throughout the brain to become what you “see and hear”. This activity can be measured using sensitive electrodes attached to the scalp.

When the brain is presented with a rhythmic stimulus, such as a drum beat for example, the rhythm is reproduced in the brain in the form of these electrical impulses. If the rhythm becomes fast and consistent enough, it can start to resemble the natural internal rhythms of the brain, called brainwaves. When this happens, the brain responds by synchronizing its own electric cycles to the same rhythm. This is commonly called the Frequency Following Response (or FFR):

FFR can be useful because brainwaves are very much related to mental state. For example, a 4 Hz brainwave is associated with sleep, so a 4 Hz sound pattern would help reproduce the sleep state in your brain. The same concept can be applied to nearly all mental states, including concentration, creativity and many others. It can even act as a gateway to exotic or extraordinary experiences, such as deep meditation or “lucid dreaming” type states.
