"Aloha everyone, I wanted to connect a few new dots for us and even cover a method to decalcify our pineal glands. All to help with neurological disorders like Alzheimer’s and more.

#Brainwaves….most of you are aware of a few but I have come across a few new ones. Keep in mind that lower frequencies have higher amplitude. This is what it means to increase your vibration.

#Delta - approximately 0.5-4HZ (cycles per second) which is usually associated with deep sleep. Less dreaming means lower HZ.

#Theta - approximately 4-8HZ. This is when we are day dreaming or in meditation.

#Alpha - approximately 8-12HZ. This is when we are awake and relaxed

#Beta - approximately 12-30 HZ. This is when we are awake and thinking.

{Monks in #Tibet showed researchers a new state which is even higher than that}

#Gamma - approximately 30-44HZ. This is achieved with Deep focus.

Under laboratory conditions monks achieved two new states.

#HyperGamma - approximately 44-100 HZ. This is a far deeper focus than Gamma

Seeing how excited the researcher were about this the monks showed them they could go even further.

#Lambda - approximately 100-200HZ. At this point, both of our brain hemispheres synchronize.

This really got me excited because I have gone through the Monroe Institute Gateway Experience for brain hemisphere synchronization years ago and still use them daily. Helping others as a Monroe Community Guide for all interested and all for free.

This also explains why my meditation went to the next level and beyond after only using this method for 1 week. My mother and a few others close to me could see a big difference in me too. They asked if I was doing drugs? As it turns out though, our brains do make #DMT, #seratonin, #melatonin and more.

If this sounds interesting to you, I have a thread here covering the Gateway Experience and I’m helping people in person here on the Big Island of Hawai’i.

There was one last brain state discovered in lab testing at the other end of the spectrum.

#Epsilon - approximately starting at 0.5 Hz going down to 0 (zero). Honestly, I don’t have my own words to describe how & when this is achieved. However, the researchers describe this as nothing being emitted from the brain. A state of suspended animation. No heartbeat. No pulse. No breathing. Yet, very much alive & conscious.

Now, referring back to the original post about Alzheimer’s and other neurological disorders. These occur when our brains become calcified. There is a build up of plaques called beta amyloids. Thereby adding massive “resistance” (Ohms) to our bodies communication. This is why you see porcelain insulators on power lines. They DO NOT CONDUCT.

In one experiment with mice, researchers genetically modified their neurons to respond to light. After which, mice were pulsed with light flashes in Gamma frequency 1 hour per day for one week. After which, those mice had 1/2 as many plaques in the visual cortex compared to the control group. This showed that Gamma activity boosts immune cells “gobbling up” plaques changing how the proteins (beta amyloids) are processed leading to less plaque and far more conductive neurons.

This got me thinking about our pineal glands. For some reason, they have color receptors the same as our eyes but they are in the middle of our brains literally never seeing the light of day. Hmmmm…..why would that be?

Well, there was a researcher by the name of Dr. Jacobo Grynberg-Zyllerbaum who got to spend some time in Mexico with Shamans and came back with an idea.

The experiment happened like this. Two meditators were connected to electroencephalograph (EEG) machines to measure brainwaves. These two meditators brainwaves became synchronized while in the same room. After a while, one meditator was moved to a different room completely shielded from ambient EMF and still synchronized with the other meditator.

Researchers began to hit the 1st guy with pulses of light. Though he was in deep meditation, those flashes were causing spikes in his brainwaves. What do you think happened to the other guy’s brainwaves down the hall?

The exact same spikes were showing up on his EEG machine without being hit by these pulses of light…

This shows that our brains & neurons respond to light without the genetic modification. And, pulses in the Gamma frequency range decalcifies our brains improving how our brains work with better internal communication due to a lack of resistance. Beyond that, we are quantum & all connected. Sensing and experiencing what someone else is experiencing.

With all of the cyborg brain interface stuff happening now showed us that chimpanzees can control a dot on a monitor like the Pong game with only their thoughts. The idea was initially they had a joystick to control this dot on a screen and anytime they got this dot inside of a moving circle, they received a drop of juice. After a while, the joystick was removed and eventually the chimps began moving the dot with their brains…what are humans capable of?

All of this food for thought has me wondering how we can create these pulses of light in Gamma frequencies for healing others and ourselves. I would love for all of our brains be put to the task for the betterment of all. Right now, I’m thinking of using an oscilloscope and connecting it to a light source but I’m sure some of you have far better ideas.

Lastly, I encourage all of you to get involved with my brain hemisphere synchronization, worldwide group meditations and distant energy sessions. Helping our minds connect and communicate with the Field that we are, not in. I do this just to hone my own skills but more of us that work together we begin to amplify our efforts. All for free and nothing to sign up for. No set schedule & no obligation."

Could Techno Be Used to Treat Parkinson’s Disease?...

McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, is finally going to answer some hard-hitting questions like: What do brainwaves look like when they're waiting for a fat bass drop? Or, how would your killer Chromeo cover band sound if they played at Carnegie Hall?

The Large Interactive Virtual Environment (LIVE) Lab is a one of a kind studio that makes use of active acoustic control, EEG (electroencephalogram) caps, heart rate monitors, motion sensors, and various other tools in order to measure both the audience and the performers' reactions to music. Since the applications of such an impressive array of equipment aren't necessarily obvious by mere mention alone, Dr. Laurel Trainor, the Director of McMaster's Institute for Music and the Mind, explained things.

LIVELab is able to incorporate the audience into the performance, and not in a bullshit "you, our dearest fans, are the fifth member of the band" way. They can actually make you part of the show by measuring your brainwaves in real time and then converting them into sound. Brainwaves occur as oscillations, similarly to how sound waves are visualized — making their transition to audio entirely possible. Once transformed into sound, brainwaves can then be played as backing music for the performers to improvise over, or directly influence the flow of the show. Then, while your brain rocks a synthesizer, you can even get your heart working a drum-machine, while your skin tries to figure out why _your _cracked version of Ableton keeps crashing, according to Dr. Trainor (though definitely not in her words).

"In addition to brainwaves, we can also measure heart rate and breathing rate, and what we call galvanic skin responses," Dr. Trainor tells THUMP. "When someone gets more emotionally involved, they sweat a little bit more, and we can measure that on their finger. So, it's basically just how much resistance there is if you pass a tiny electric current, from one point to another point on the finger, which tells us how emotionally involved they are."

After your internal organs have laid down some personal beats, body language also plays a role: giving detailed information to LIVELab's 28 infra-red cameras. The cameras observe all three-dimensional movements made by the audience and performers, which is used to answer questions about physical, unspoken musical cues.

"We can track these very complex dynamics of movement through all the people in the space," Dr. Trainor explains. "We can figure out how important that is, how it contributes to people's enjoyment of a performance, how the musicians use it, how people react to the way that performers move. The whole visual thing is something we think is very important. In concerts, it's not just the sounds you hear, but it's what you're seeing and how the two fit together."

The utility of movement tracking goes even further with programs like Dance for Parkinson's, where LIVELab's equipment is used to aid people suffering from the disease. According to Dr. Trainor, music isn't just rhythms and auditory signals, but something that's read by the motor part of the brain too. A lot of movements, such as walking, are actually rhythmical, meaning that our ability to process rhythms may have started with our movement systems.

"What we're finding is that when we play an auditory rhythm... it's like a different way of helping the motor system get started. Those auditory cues actually help people with Parkinson's to make movements. With some patients it's quite pronounced, you just put on some music with a strong beat and their walking just instantly changes, it becomes much more fluid," says Dr. Trainor.

If a strong beat immediately brought techno to mind, then join the club. It's not beyond the realms of possibility that the pounding four by four genre could prove effective in treatment. "I don't know of any studies that have specifically used techno or house music with Parkinson's, but I expect that the strong regular beat of much of this music would give a strong cue to help movement," Dr. Trainor tells THUMP.

Medical reasons like Dance for Parkinson's are a noble aspect of LIVELab's research, but just a small section of the studio's vision. "What the lab is about is trying to understand human interaction," says Dr. Trainor. "For a large part, we use music as a model for that, because music is very demanding in terms of how we interact with other people. If you're talking to someone, you have to listen and think about what you're going to say in response at the same time, so even that's quite complicated. In music, however, if you're playing with another musician you have to be right there with them at the right time. We really want to understand these processes."

Despite the fact that the lab has only been in operation since fall 2014, it has already yielded some interesting results. "One of the things we've been shown in there is that if you're playing with someone who's really in sync with your timing, you're actually better at detecting other aspects, like the wrong pitch," Dr. Trainor explains. "Whereas if you're playing with somebody who isn't that good at following your timing, you're constantly sort of fighting about playing together, then you don't process the rest of the music as well, so you're not hearing these pitch changes in the music... When you're really in the groove, then your whole perception of everything else is enhanced, like you've got more processing power to devote to that."

These preliminary tests only scratch the surface of LIVELab's potential. Given time, perhaps it will yield scientific answers to all those pesky questions, like: Why is it so hard for these bros to jump right at the drop? Does Aphex Twin's "Bucephalus Bouncing Ball" activate a record-breaking number of nodes? Why do I start sweating profusely whenever an Avicii song plays? Only time will tell.
