This page describes a binaural-beat track made for stress. Binaural beats are an auditory illusion: when a slightly different tone plays in each ear through headphones, the brain perceives a third, pulsing tone.
The frequency notes below come from the binaural-beat and sound-healing tradition. They are not established medical findings, and this audio is not a treatment for stress or any other condition. Any effect varies from person to person and may be small or absent. It complements, and does not replace, care from a doctor or mental-health professional.
About 7.83 Hz
The notes tie this track to 7.83 Hz, known as Schumann’s resonance. In this tradition the earth is said to vibrate at that frequency, and it is treated as a natural reference point found throughout nature. One suggestion from the tradition for reconnecting with it is to spend time in nature, away from machines.
Effects the tradition attributes to 7.83 Hz include easing jet lag, improving stress tolerance, and stimulating the pituitary gland to release growth hormone (said to help build muscle, recover from injuries and rejuvenate). It is also said to leave you feeling revitalized, like a day in the country, and is described as “the earth’s natural brainwave,” with reports of faster healing and learning. These are the tradition’s claims, not clinical findings, and this page cites no study for any of them.
