Sliding Binaural Beat MP3 Files

These binaural beat MP3 files span a range of frequencies and therefore evoke a corresponding range of brainwave frequencies. The pitch starts high and ends low.

brainwave entrainment binaural beat MP3 file downloadRight-click on each filename to download the MP3 file. Save it to your hard drive, put it on your iPod/iPhone/G1 or MP3 player, burn it onto a CD, or listen to it on your computer. Remember you must listen to these files using headphones in order for them to work.

Set aside a regular time each day and find a quiet place to sit. Relax, focus on your breathing, and use these modest MP3 files as a tool. Establish the habit. It's a small investment with large rewards.

This first MP3 file is called Total Sweep and it spans the beta through alpha to theta brain wave frequencies. It goes from 25Hz -> 4Hz on (L 123.6 -> 134.1 and R 148.6 -> 138.1)

The next three binaural beat files each map to one type of brainwave: beta, alpha, and theta. They slide from the high end to the low end of the range. The base sound is a 136.1 Hz sine wave. (Big shoutout to MichelleT7)

The next set of files slide between brainwave ranges.


Delta Dreams is a two-part slide that goes from 10Hz to 2.5Hz followed by a sustained section at 2.5Hz. Each portion is 10 minutes long, making Delta Dreams 20 minutes total. This file is designed as a sleep aid. It goes from Berger's Rhythm to down to delta (deep sleep).

Unless otherwise specified all binaural beat files are centered around a 136.1 Hz sine wave. This tone is called "Nada Brahma", the sound associated with Om.

I also made some meditation timers, both audio and video files of varying length. Time yourself from 10 to 30 minutes in 5 minute intervals. No binaural beats, just a single bell at the end of silence.

Don't stop. Learn more by reading some of these meditation books. Buy them or visit your local public library.

Don't forget to sit.
