]]> Comment on The Mystery of Sleep and the lucky few who don’t need it by Lauren http://www.mindupdate.com/?p=44#comment-1279 Lauren Sun, 30 May 2010 17:03:32 +0000 http://www.mindupdate.com/?p=44#comment-1279 I am one who only needs 4-6hrs sleep most nights. Infact, if I have an nap for an hr, it can keep me going all night.. It's frustrating because there are those days every now & then that you REALLY need a good sleep, but just can't. I agree with Luke & Emily. I am a very ambitious, perfection seeking artist/designer & I suffer from anxiety. Perfect concoction for less sleep. Sadly, night is when I am most creative :( These days I don't have a choice as my boyfriend, who has a deviated septum & post nasal drip, keeps me awake all night with his coughing/spluttering/stratching & random yells. I think sleep is all relative to the type of person you are, ie. ambitious = always thinking & less sleep. Repressive of emotions = restless sleeper, etc.. One thing I do notice is that I have ridiculously slow circulation. I am ALWAYS cold often I wake up cold. Anyone else have this problem? Perhaps our body temperature drops too low & our body says 'NO! TIME TO GET UP & GENERATE HEAT!'. Lol, just a thought! I am one who only needs 4-6hrs sleep most nights.

God bless you all! very good and helpful article indeed,

]]> Comment on Analyzing binaural beat CDs, and a tip for BAVSA users by binaural beats http://www.mindupdate.com/?p=83#comment-1266 binaural beats Wed, 19 May 2010 21:54:46 +0000 http://www.mindupdate.com/?p=83#comment-1266 Great Article ! I was going through BAVSA programs and found some really interesting frequencies in many of CDs. For eg. frequencies found by bavsa on CD "Orientation Focus 3": it starts with 3.9 herz (at 300 herz carrier frequency) then it changes into 3.9 (300) 0 (60) and again changing at 23 min. into more complicated 1.4 (114) 3.5 (111) 6.3 (116) 3.8 (300) CD "Super Sleep": 1.5 (100) 49 (74) 51 (75) CD "Cable Car Ride": impossible to read, due to its strange and ever-changing frequencies. The same goes for CD "HemiSync in Motion." PS. I don't know if bavsa really does the reading and if I read the frequencies correctly. Great Article !

frequencies found by bavsa on CD “Orientation Focus 3″:

impossible to read, due to its strange
and ever-changing frequencies.

I don’t know if bavsa really does the reading
and if I read the frequencies correctly.

A study done just last year appears to confirm it. Enjoy. http://ccsenet.org/journal/index.php/cis/article/viewFile/1793/1702 I have personally been experimenting with "binaural beats/isochronic tones" for the past couple of months. I have composed a soundscape of my own that I find very effective I'd be willing to share if you're interested.
