Different types of electrical activity within your brain dominate during certain times of day or during specific activities. Harnessing your brain’s alpha waves can help you enter a flow state, which ...

Can’t sleep? Between screen time and the demands of daily life, your brain doesn’t just shut off when you hit the pillow. Sleep experts say your brain waves control how well you sleep. Think of your ...

Neuroscientists recently made a correlation between an increase of alpha brain waves—either through electrical stimulation or mindfulness and meditation—and the ability to reduce depressive symptoms ...

Alpha waves or Alpha rhythm are macroscopic neural oscillations in the frequency range of 8–12 Hz likely originating from the synchronous and coherent (in phase or constructive) electrical activity of ...

Rhythms produced by the brain can reliably be used to predict how sensitive we are to pain, new research shows. The living brain is constantly producing regular rhythmic patterns of activity, which ...

The strength of alpha brain waves reveals if you are about to make a biased decision, according to research recently published in JNeurosci. Everyone has bias, and neuroscientists can see what happens ...
