    An hour-long binaural beat track described as being for creativity and visualization. Binaural beats are an auditory illusion the brain perceives when two different tones are played, one into each ear. That purpose is the track's own description, not an established finding.

    About This Binaural Beat: Increasing Creativity

    The track description says it uses a carrier frequency of 263 Hz, which it associates with creativity and speech.

    The audio begins at the theta frequency of 6 Hz and plays for ten minutes. After ten minutes it moves up to 10 Hz for another ten minutes. The description says this 6 Hz to 10 Hz combination is noted for enhancing creativity and visualization; that is the track's claim, not an established finding. The 6 Hz to 10 Hz cycle plays two more times, and the audio finishes at 10 Hz for an hour-long session.

    The combined electrical activity of the brain is commonly called a brainwave pattern, because of its cyclic, “wave-like” nature.

    This track complements, and does not replace, care from a doctor or mental health professional.
