Question 1

What are binaural waves?

Accepted Answer

Binaural waves are auditory illusions created when two slightly different frequencies are played in each ear, creating a perceived wave frequency that can help with focus, meditation, and sleep.

Question 2

How do binaural waves work?

Accepted Answer

Binaural waves work by playing two slightly different frequencies in each ear. Your brain perceives the difference between these frequencies as a third frequency, which can help entrain your brainwaves to different states like focus (beta/gamma), relaxation (alpha), meditation (theta), or sleep (delta).

Question 3

Do I need headphones for binaural waves?

Accepted Answer

Yes, binaural waves require headphones or earbuds to work properly. Each ear must receive a different frequency to create the binaural effect. Speakers won't create the same effect because both ears would hear both frequencies.
