hi doug, jim, and everyone else.
in regard to binaural beats, I have only used the brain wave generator. andit has had some positive effects on me. while I think it is possible that I am only using the tones as a focus point for meditation, I really think that it is having some sort of more direct effect on my brainwaves. the mainreason i think this is for one it gets me to a deeper state faster than I have been able to do on my own, the other is that if i set it to go quite low then level off at a point between consciousness and sleeping it seems tohelp keep me from falling asleep while still keeping me in a deep state. my biggest problem with meditation is doing it without falling asleep, so this is rather helpful.
I guess the only way to know would be to create a blind test to see if it really is affecting the brain waves or if it is just the power of suggestion.
in any event, whether entrainement or focus point, it helps me a lot, and Iwould recommend anyone who needs a little help meditating to try it, but not to pay any money for it until you can see for yourself that it helps you.
LJDarten.
