Abstract: Brain waves are electrical impulses generated by neuronal activity, which serve as critical indicators of cognitive and neurological states. The monitoring of brain waves is essential for ...

Achieve peak productivity by manipulating brain wave states. Instead of constantly operating in beta, shift to alpha for creativity, theta for deep insight, and gamma for breakthrough. Find "flow ...

When it comes to understanding the mystery of human consciousness, scientists have long sought the hidden mechanism that transforms mere neural firing into the rich experience of thought. Now, a ...

On neuroscience’s big stage Nov. 15, MIT Professor Earl K. Miller will propose that thought and consciousness emerge from the fast and flexible organization of the cortex produced by the analog ...

SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) — A weeklong meditation and healing retreat may do more than just calm the mind — it could rewire it. Researchers at the University of California San Diego have found that an ...

Summary: A week-long retreat combining meditation and mind-body healing produced significant changes in brain activity and blood biology, demonstrating how consciousness-based practices can transform ...

Every day, thousands of people use indoor gun ranges that are designed to limit the hazards of target shooting, including lead exposure and stray bullets. But shooting indoors poses another hazard ...

For over a century, scientists have studied the brain’s rhythmic waves of synchronized neural activity. Now, Yale researchers have uncovered where gamma waves—patterns disrupted in conditions such as ...

Summary: New research shows that the brain’s ability to detect subtle visual changes—like spotting an anomaly on a security monitor—depends on theta-frequency brain waves (3–6 Hz) that rhythmically ...

A new study has found that a certain kind of meditation could reverse brain aging by an average of almost six years, while also potentially reducing risk of Alzheimer’s and dementia. Referring to ...
