Meditation and Binaural Beats

[babushka]

I have been skeptical on the effects of the tones on meditation for a while and I have done the Monroe tapes.

Basically the idea is that these frequencies syncs brain hemispheres and gives you super powers during and after meditation. The main issue for me is that meditation is as old as time including synching brain hemispheres and so is whatever psychic abilities. 

Personally I'm of the opinion lifestyle and knowledge is where the magic is but regardless lets do some experiments.

Frequency band Frequency Brain states
Gamma (γ) >35 Hz Concentration
Beta (β) 12–35 Hz Anxiety dominant, active, external attention, relaxed
Alpha (α) 8–12 Hz Very relaxed, passive attention
Theta (θ) 4–8 Hz Deeply relaxed, inward focused
Delta (δ) 0.5–4 Hz Sleep

I will record my meditation sessions here using different frequencies over days or weeks or until I get bored

The first session was this morning at 8AM utilizing 10Hz (the time of day has nothing to do with my wakeful state I have a highly irregular sleeping pattern, recording for esoteric purposes)

Meditated for 30min. Got little random muscle spasms almost immediately, it's pretty much just like getting an electric shock in a localized area. Had a brief moment of 'fear of apparitions' but got over that quickly. Pretty chilled otherwise, mostly darkness and some light patterns. Right at the end I started getting hypnogenic hallucinations (nothing noteworthy) and was disappointed when the alarm sounded because I was ready to sleep. 30min is a long time for dream states to start usually it's much quicker 10min or so. Focus and relaxation was easy right from the start.

And that is the first entry...hmmm what else

I will try and do nothing weird and just stick with basic observation and clearing my mind. Mediation will be done with a mask that blocks out all light. Wondering if my eyes are open or not is a major distraction and so is portals opening up with little cherubs running around the room

12:15PM 7.83 Hz the Schumann resonance

45 min session, was aiming for an hour but got interrupted. It was difficult to focus or more accurately not thinking about anything and just observing. Wish I could just say it was because the day is in full swing and lots on my mind, but I normally have good afternoon session. Will do the same again tomorrow and just swap the frequencies/times.

Had some twitches starting out, more like jerks not the rippling electric stuff. Fully aware of my body the whole time. Annoying flashing at the start also, like looking into a strobe. Blood pressure or something I think.

I was surprised by how much time had passed at the end, it felt like visions started sooner but considering how much time had passed I'm not so sure. Maybe need to setup a timer that dings every 15min or something like that.

Pulsating sensations was prominent, particularly in areas where I had pain.

Did I say I had a hard time focusing? Had to do some tricks to relax, breathing and drawing energy through my chakras etc...

The visions, still images nothing dream like. One was overcast with blue sky showing through, standing slightly elevated looking towards the ocean with a telephone pole close to me. Then a dude with a cap, middle aged looking off to the side, seated. Dark clothing. Big guy I think. Couldn't make out much else of that. Somewhere in-between was a farm animal - a pig or bull something stuck on fence trying to get through, it wasn't super clear.

edit: forgot, said a prayer for a friend halfway through, that's how bad my focus was

[babushka]

Did guided meditation last night around 7:15PM, no weird tones or anything like that, just a lady taking for 50min or so.

Maintained good focus throughout. Could visualize everything, felt what ever sensation she suggested, 'feeling' I guess is a thing for me, the suggestion of feeling heat was felt. It's kinda weird...nothing else happened though. It was all guided so go figure.

Pulsating sensations again. I still don't get the vibrations thing that everyone talks about, I don't know if it's just a trope or what.

There was a free bit at the end where I was just supposed to let whatever images surface, can't recall anything now though so who knows.

Overall it wasn't very deep and I had trouble falling asleep even though I was tired after.

That's it, could clear my mind and maintain focus for 50min.

Today I'm not in a good space, seeing allot of annoying shit in the media and other comments on social media so probably not going to do anything. People are still viewed as insane for talking about ESP or any other phenomena and want us locked up. I have literally been threatened on having my life ruined for talking about this stuff.

I have had a lifetime of abuse in all forms and ridicule so I'm okay, others might snap.

[babushka]

Absolute disaster I don't even want to continue. Had the worst day yesterday. Mood was rotten and kept seeing everything I visualized, both mentally and physically in news articles and youtube video's etc. Is not good. Had trouble falling asleep again and I can put myself to sleep so it's all ridiculous.

I have a suspicion that whatever these tones does, the effects last long after and have read something to that effect. I want get some of the science stuff in here, there are many studies. Not sure when I will have time though.

This was the first thing that popped up on my phone https://hackaday.com/2026/01/06/faraday-...tic-field/ it's related... and this https://www.sciencealert.com/we-emit-a-v...study-says

I saw The Binaural Beats live in concert. 

Actually, I thought that was used in mind control experiments.

Yes it is used in mind control experiments but also just everyday by many people across the world.



Did 6Hz at 12:30PM for an hour

Passed out basically and that's it. Vaguely remember seeing allot of stuff and dreaming. Not very deep sleep. Couldn't focus at all, maybe 10 seconds at a time. In fact I would say I was unfocused, but very active visuals. At one point I was working on a computer and thought "oh shit I'm dreaming" and then nothing just the alarm going off

Oh look at this

that that combination of frequencies
1:09
played to the different ears,
1:11
actually get integrated within deep brain centers
1:14
and can increase focus and concentration, in part,
1:17
by increasing levels of the neurochemical dopamine
1:20
and acetylcholine,

Acetylcholine is the neurotransmitter used at the neuromuscular junction. In other words, it is the chemical that motor neurons of the nervous system release in order to activate muscles. This property means that drugs that affect cholinergic systems can have very dangerous effects ranging from paralysis to convulsions. Acetylcholine is also a neurotransmitter in the autonomic nervous system, both as an internal transmitter for both the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nervous system, and as the final product released by the parasympathetic nervous system.[2] Acetylcholine is the primary neurotransmitter of the parasympathetic nervous system.[3][4]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetylcholine


Could explain the weird spasm and the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nervous system is really what you try to mess with during meditation, the breathing exercise leans into that and you effect heart rate with meditation because of the rhythmic breathing.

There is some weird stuff about setting up standing waves that can be measured, need to look for that. Also how long the effects actually last. If it's chemical then probably a while.

Basically messing with my dopamine and acetylcholine levels and exaggerating that with meditation

[babushka]

Abandoning this line of research for various reasons. 30min to an hour and breaks is they way I think. Do it for 30min, stop for 4 hours, or stop for just 15min, really need to experiment. If you are brave try using Cholinesterase inhibitors with the tones.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cholinesterase_inhibitor

Cholinesterase inhibitors (ChEIs), also known as anti-cholinesterase, are chemicals that prevent the breakdown of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine or butyrylcholine by cholinesterase. This increases the amount of the acetylcholine or butyrylcholine in the synaptic cleft that can bind to muscarinic receptors, nicotinic receptors and others. This group of inhibitors is divided into two subgroups, acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (AChEIs) and butyrylcholinesterase inhibitors (BChEIs).

Used in chemical weapons apparently also and goes nice with mind control

ChEls are widely used as chemical weapons. Since November 2019 the group of ACheIs known as Novichoks have been banned as agents of warfare under the Chemical Weapons Convention.[9] Novichok agents are neurotoxic organophosphorus compounds and are considered more potent than VX gas, also a neurotoxic organophosphorus compound.[10] 

Could be interesting to start with this

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huperzine_A

Huperzine A, a Lycopodium alkaloid, was first isolated in 1983 from Huperzia serrata,[2][3][4] a plant used in Chinese folk medicine. Huperzine A also exists in other Huperzia species, including H. elmeri, H. carinat, and H. aqualupian with varying quantities

also..."weak NMDA receptor antagonist"..
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NMDA_receptor_antagonist

NMDA receptor antagonists are a class of drugs that work to antagonize, or inhibit the action of, the N-Methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR). They are commonly used as anesthetics for humans and animals; the state of anesthesia they induce is referred to as dissociative anesthesia.

Dissociative anesthesia is a state where a person feels detached (dissociated) from their body and surroundings, experiencing pain relief (analgesia), memory loss (amnesia), and altered perception, often with hallucinations, making them seem awake but unresponsive, with ketamine and PCP being key examples. This unique anesthetic effect, caused by drugs blocking NMDA receptors, creates a "catalepsy" where the patient appears awake but disconnected, unlike traditional anesthesia

Huperzine A may be used as a (very weak) Oneriogen.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oneirogen

An oneirogen, from the Greek ὄνειρος óneiros meaning "dream" and gen "to create", is a drug that induces a dream-like state of consciousness, also known as oneirophrenia. The term oneirogen, oneirophrenic, or oneiric, was introduced to refer specifically to ibogaine- and harmaline-type hallucinogens by William Turner and Claudio Naranjo in the 1960s and 1970s.[1][2][3][4][5] Subsequently, the term has also sometimes been used to refer to non-hallucinogenic drugs that facilitate dreaming.

Huperzia serrata, the toothed clubmoss,[4] is a plant known as a firmoss. The species is native to eastern Asia (China, Tibet, Japan, the Korean peninsula, the Russian Far East).[5] It is also found in the main islands of Hawaii with the exception of Maui, but is considered vulnerable by NatureServe
