Turn. Down. The Volume.

Heheh - just had to experience it myself again: a lot of people new to “brainwave stuff” make the mistake to listen to the sessions WAY too loud.

Why is that no good?

Two reasons:

1. If you “hammer” the binaural beats and the carrier tones into your ears and brain, you just get a headache. Or tinnitus. Or something. And no meditative states at all. Size/volume does not matter in that case - actually it is counterproductive.

2. If you use a guided meditation, are deep in trance, and there is a pause in the vocal track, the sudden assault of the voice after the pause can have a really unpleasant startling effect “Whoohooo???!? WTF? Who am I, where am I, and WHY the f*** is this voice so frigging loud and WHERE the heck does it come from???”.

So: better turn down the volume. Way more healthy and effective.

Most sessions can be listened to at a level where the voice can JUST be understood, more like a whisper. Your senses will be more alert during meditation anyways, so you probably won’t miss a thing.

I wish you pleasant meditations without any shock effects! ;-)
