Gamma Activation

Breath Pacers

This track is intended as an energy tool (with appropriate setting and intention). It is not intended as a vehicle for meditation per se, but can be approached as an audio activation (Brain Wave Entrainment -isochronic at 40Hz, 10Hz, and 5Hz, Hemisphere Synchronization, Solveggio Tunings -emphasizing A=432 and 528).

Relax in a comfortable space where you will not be interrupted. Use headphones or ear buds.

The track is tuned to A=432. It opens with a slow (5 sec. in - 5 sec. out) breathing rhythm, and features:

* A full scale (un-looped) 20-minute sound design, engineered to set up and maximize the "Gamma Effect" (whole brain coherence experienced as relaxed wakefulness -- bit.ly/2DIcaHJ ).

* A unique 40 Hz (Gamma) brainwave entrainment formula

* Binaural nature recordings for 3D "immersion".

* Brain hemisphere synchronization support

Gamma Land

This track is intended as an energy tool (with appropriate setting and intention). It can be used as an audio activation (Brain Wave Entrainment -isochronic at 40Hz, 10Hz, and 5Hz, Hemisphere Synchronization, Solveggio Tunings -emphasizing A=432 and 528).

The track is tuned to A=432. It opens with a slow breathing rhythm, and features:

* A full scale (un-looped) 15-minute sound design, engineered to maximize the "Gamma Effect" (whole brain coherence experienced as relaxed wakefulness -- bit.ly/2DIcaHJ ).

* A unique 40 Hz (Gamma) brainwave entrainment formula

* Binaural nature recordings for 3D "immersion".

* Brain hemisphere synchronization support

Relax in a comfortable space where you will not be interrupted. Use headphones or ear buds. The music depicts the various stages of a 24 hour day: Waking to an active morning, relaxing into the afternoon, being lulled to sleep (harp passage), dreaming ("shaman" encounter), and slowly waking again.

Enjoy and feel well!

Gamma Time

First lighten up with some hemispheric balance and enlivenment
Then immerse in a warm tub and relax.  A 'Gamma 'scrub' is followed by another period of relaxation.

Gamma Spa

40 Hz gamma entrainment is embedded in the various elements of this track, as well as some bilateral brain activation. Tuning is A=432. Rhythms are octaves of 40Hz

Gamma Tonic

Gamma immersion in 4 three-minute movements  (Earth, Water, Fire, Air). Tuned to A=432, with masked gamma entrainment.

Gamma Densities

This track is a breath pacer to promote neuro-physical balance and integration through parasympathetic activation.  The breathing pattern is a 'six beat inhale - nine beat exhale' golden ratio pattern derived from the Buteko research. At 72 beats per minute, this works out to a four second inhale and a six second exhale. The 72 beat tempo was selected for it's resonance with the Gamma range of brain wave frequencies. .1Hz is the Epsilon frequency correlated with high states of consciousness.*

The track offers non-verbal guidance as you deeply relax, knowing you needn't count breaths. Instead, counting the 6 and 9 beat rhythm as it's happening will facilitate a flow state during which the autonomic system will naturally fall into balance. This tracking process morphs into 4 and 6 beat rhythm but without changing speed.  It may be challenging to make the shift from 6 and 9 to 4 and 6.  This is an intentional challenge for your steady focus.

The music is tuned to A=432. It includes 40Hz isochronic entrainment, a prominent 528 solfeggio tone and brain hemisphere synchronization.

For best results, arrange to be comfortable and undisturbed. Use headphones or separated speakers.

Breathe only through the nose and deeply into the abdomen.

Use as little air as is needed.

Avoid stopping the breath or yawning.

Epsilon Breath Puzzle

This track is a breath pacer to optimize neuro-physical balance and integration. The target breath rate is five breaths per minute. To facilitate adjusting to this slow pace, the track begins at a moderate pace, and gradually slows until the target is reached (after 72 seconds). The breathing is a 'five beat inhale - eight beat exhale' fibbonacci pattern derived from the Buteko research. After 30 breaths (at 5 breaths/min.) you will hear a prominent piano tone to signal the beginning of a 40 second exhaled breath hold. During the hold you'll hear a piano cue every 10 seconds. The length of your comfortable breath hold reveals the degree of balance in the autonomic nervous system. A 40 second hold signifies a healthy baseline.

The track offers non-verbal guidance as you deeply relax, knowing you needn't count breaths. Instead, counting the 5-8 rhythm as it's happening will facilitate a flow state during which the autonomic system will naturally fall into balance.
The music is tuned to A=432 and includes brain hemisphere synchronization sound technology.

For best results, arrange to be comfortable and undisturbed and use headphones or separated speakers. Do not use after a meal, as this will tend to affect the hold time. Use no force during, or at the end of the hold.

While performing the 30 breaths:

Breathe only through the nose.

Breathe deeply into the abdomen.

Use as little air as is needed.

Avoid stopping the breath.

Five Eight Flow

Use with buds or headphones to accompany an 11 minute walk in rhythm. The rhythmic phrasing is built around a four beat in-breath and a six beat out-breath. After every four complete breaths an extra beat is added to shift the rhythmic weight to the opposite foot to facilitate brain hemisphere balance. Tuned at A=432. A subtle 40 Hz gamma modulation is included for whole brain integration.  The 4-6 breathing (golden mean ratio) will induce heart/breath coherence, leading to optimum autonomic function. I have found that keeping focused on the breathing, challenging though it may be at times, enhances the overall effectiveness of the exercise.

Cheers,
Brian

The Gamma Soma Breathing Pacer

Purpose: This music is offered free to the Soma Breath community (Teachers and experienced students). Soma Breath teachers may add spoken coaching as desired. I composed this timing aid primarily for my own use.

Benefits: Similar to Holotropic Breathwork, Wim Hof Breathwork, Kapalabhati Pranayama, etc., Soma Breath has as its aim a state of mind and body that promotes healing, growth, and personal transformation. It involves holding the out breath for as long as 2 minutes. The Western medical term for this is Low Dose Intermittent Hypoxia This breath hold (in Yoga: “Bhaya Kumbhaka”) is prepared through a sequence of rhythmic breathing --a kind of moderated hyperventilation (Yoga: “Bhastrika”), which itself is considered to have many health benefits.

Description: The Gamma Soma Breathing Pacer consists of two rounds of rhythmic breathing: “Bhastrika1” (~9 minutes), and “Bhastrika2” (~7minutes). Following each of these rounds is a period of relative silence (~5 minutes) allowing for a self regulated sequence consisting of: the out breath hold, and in breath hold, a slow breath release, and a rest period for visualization and intention setting. There is no pacing during these portions of the practice apart from a nearly inaudible 40Hz drone.  

To use this pacer plan be undisturbed for at least 30 minutes. Sit or lie down comfortably and practice diaphramatic nose breathing. Although the more uptempo bhastrika is facilitated by exhaling through the mouth, in general mouth breathing is not recommended. The session begins with 3-minute slow breathing sequence (Coherent Breathing 6 second inhale, 6 second exhale with optional OM chant). This is meant to facilitate the “Spanda” or Cosmic Pulse (“flow state”) that is optimal for the practice.  Bhastrika2 begins with a Gamma Breath activation routine (energyofbreathschool.com). The entire session is laced with 40Hz gamma, and hemisphere synchronization entrainment.

Gamma Soma

Breath of Awakening is a sound entrainment session infused with Delta at 3Hz, Theta at 6 Hz, and Alpha at 12 Hz.  A proprietary gamma entrainment is also present throughout.  Included is a breath pacer modeled after the coherent breathing protocol developed by Stephen Elliott (6 sec. inhale and 6 sec. exhale with no pauses through the nose and low into the abdomen).  This pacer incorporates an alternate ear pattern similar to pranayama alternate nostril breathing.  Tuning is at A=432. 
Listening tip:  Focus on the alternate ear breathing sound, and feel the slow steady pulse.  Make it through the first minute or so and you're set.  Enjoy!
