Psychic Youth. Daydream Nation.

Hans Berger 1873-1941. German guy who invented the EEG, which measures human brainwaves. He died before its potential fully manifested, but the EGG is used in hospitals today to diagnose epilepsy and brain tumors. I don't know much more about him but what is amazing that he discovered is this-

Beta-The person is active and awake, the brain operates 12-15 cycles per second and up. this is conscious mind.

Alpha-brain activity occurs 6-14 cycles and up. This is where daydreaming takes place. It is said most hypnosis also takes place in this range.

Theta- Between 4-8 cycles per second. Emotional experiences are recorded here.

Delta-4-5 cycles per second. This is an unconscious state.

When we sleep the brain goes out of beta, through and out of alpha and theta, and into delta where it stays for a hot minute before it cycles back up to theta, then alpha where you dream for a while. Everbody's sleep cycle is different and changing all the time so it is unique to the individual how many times they will go in and out of delta and back to dreaming.

Why is this interesting?? Because it is said that most psychic experiences happen when your brain is chilled out, in an altered state, all tranced out or whatever a.k.a the Theta sate. So now the question is, how do I get there from the Beta state? Dudes its as easy as 1 2 3. Literally. What Hans Berger discovered is that just by simply closing your eyes your brain chills out to alpha. So then if you just count 1 2 3, you chill even more. Practice! Party on Hans Berger style.
