Regular use of binaural beats results in what is know as the “Binaural Brain”, which is a nickname for the conditioned brain of a person who uses this form of brain wave entrainment (BWE) on a regular basis.
This article will introduce you to 18 symptoms of the binaural brain – each one more glorious and inspirational than the last 😉
If you're not yet playing with binaural beats, and you like the sound of the practically unlimited possibilities of the binaural brain, I hope this article will inspire you to give binaural beats a go today.
18 Ways Binaural Beats Work to SuperCharge Your Brain!
1) The binaural brain experiences less stress than the regular brain. Anxiety drops, peace of mind increases. This has been proven again and again in binaural beat research studies. Win / Win.
2) The binaural brain produces more happy chemicals than the regular brain – including serotonin, DHEA and endorphins – which make you feel good. (Think post-exercise, post-sex kinda good 😉
3) There are more neural connections between the left and right hemispheres for binaural brains (the brain has to do this to actually process the sound of the binaural beats), suggesting improved “whole brain functioning” – a quality attributed to genius folks such as Edison, Leonardo Da Vinci and more.
4) Brain wave entrainment users develop the ability to enter a state of brain wave synchronisation, and get all of the associated health benefits.
5) The binaural brain is more self-aware. This may be due to spending time in alpha brain waves and theta brain waves, associated with the subconscious mind. I personally reckon binaural beats help us to communicate with our subconscious minds better – which is a massively transformative thing to do.
6) Over time and with practice, there is often more control over emotions and feelings for binaural beats users. The binaural brain helps you to manage your reactions to external events, helping you to become a more thoughtful, rounded person. It's almost as if you get half a second of calm before angry reactions kick in!
7) Whether you use binaural beats, isochronic tones, monaural tones or meditation machines, or any other form of brain wave entrainment…. you will still get the binaural brain.
Variety is the spice of life!
8) Binaural brains are more creative brains. This is probably because creative leaps and breakthroughs come in the theta brain waves state (which is very difficult to reach naturally – but binaural beats can get you there semi-easily.)
9) Binaural beats users tend to have higher levels of calm and inner peace.
No matter how stressful the life, binaural brains tend to have a chilled out and happy core. And believe me, they didn't all start like that 😉
10) Binaural brains experience less frustration. That's because they've learned how to be more centred, and not get over agitated and upset when things “go wrong”.
Sure, I get p*ssed off once in a while, but my tolerance to stress has risen immeasurably. For example, I used to go crazy with stress and frustration if I missed a bus, or if a train was delayed for even a few minutes. The old me was a bit of a stress head!
11) Users of brain wave entrainment tools feel that they are more intuitive. Prolonged access to the theta / alpha states helps this. Could you do with a bit more sixth sense in your life? And not the Bruce Willis movie kind?!
13) Prepare to experience more coincidences and “good luck” with the binaural brain. Don't ask me why, but it just seems to happen! Perhaps taking the time to chill out for a few minutes every day opens us up to an inner wisdom we normally keep covered up? Controversial perhaps, but what do you think…?
14) Binaural brains are bigger brains – literally. When you listen to binaural beats, your brain has to create new neural pathways to process the sounds, meaning that your brain gets bigger (physically!) every time you use them. Do you want a bigger brain? You think that could be pretty cool? Damn right! 😉
15) When you use isochronic tones and binaural beats, your ability to handle stress increases. You won't react as aggressively anymore. You'll take a deep breath. Chill out. Assess the situation. Relax… Sure, you'll get angry still, but a lot less often. See crazy Virgin Atlantic experience above – I didn't curse Richard Branson's name once during the whole ordeal… OK, maybe once…
16) Binaural brains are sharper brains. Probably something to do with all the training you give it…
… And the extra neural connections. And the increased meditative focus. And the rest you give it when you use BWE tools. Something to do with that, I reckon!
17) There are more “ah ha!” moments for binaural beats users. This is because creative breakthroughs come from the theta state, and most people can't access this on demand. BWE tools can certainly help you to get into this beneficial state.
I had the idea for this website, ironically, when I was using some binaural music.
What kind of ideas could you start having? Perhaps you could learn to express yourself creatively better? Earn a second or passive income? Start doing what you love?
The possibilities are near endless!
18) Fans of brain wave entrainment tend to be more confident, more optimistic and happier. This is probably due to the masses of “happy” natural chemicals produced when binaural beats are played, as well as a mixture of the past 17 reasons you have just learned. Pick one 😉
A Final Thought
Binaural brains are unquestionably more efficient and effective. If you want to have a chilled, happy, peaceful & creative brain, you should definitely try some of this special music today.

Hi Arvinder, sorry to hear that you feel this way. I have never heard of anyone becoming stuck in a delta state. Maybe you just feel sleepy because of lack of sleep or diet. I suggest trying something like Memory Enhancer (Gamma) or Super Brain Power (Beta) to stimulate your brain and get you feeling energetic and awake again.
hi there, great website! I have been getting into this because of difficulty meditating. What do you suggest we do when listening to the binaural beats? And are there differences in what we should be doing when the music is related to different waves? So different activity for theta waves, alpha, delta?? Please let me know.
Hi Suyog, yes. You should try to act in the way most conducive to the brain state you want to achieve. For example, when listening for a track for meditation or relaxation (usually theta), you should sit down and eliminate distractions as much as you can. Or when listening to a track for focus (usually alpha), you can work or engage in a task that requires deep concentration.
Is it safe to listen to binaural beats throughout the entire night while you sleep? How many minutes do you recommend people should listen to binaural beats?
You could listen to delta waves while sleeping, because this would promote delta wave production and help you get better recovery sleep, like this Blissful Sleep track. Be careful listening to other frequencies while trying to sleep though as this will interfere with the frequency pattern your brain produces when cycling through the sleep stages.
In terms of the amount per day: I’d suggest starting with 2 30-minute sessions a day. You can go up to 3 once you have gotten used to listening a bit.
Hope this helps!
