How do binaural beats work?
Our brains tend to play monkey-see-monkey-do with the stimuli around us. Whether that is a strobing light, a beating heart, a pulsing tone, or a binaural beat.
When you listen to a binaural beat (with headphones) a different frequency will play in your right and left ear. For example, 100 Hz in your right + 104 Hz in your left. Your brain interprets the 4 Hz difference between the two and begins to sync up with that frequency. In theory, this delivers the benefits associated with that frequency and brainwave range.
