(Jiloun3) Going deeper into relaxation, enter the elusive and mysterious Theta brainwave state where activity slows almost to the point of sleep but not quite. Theta is the state where magic happens in the crucible of neurological activity. Theta brings forward heightened receptivity, flashes of dreamlike imagery, inspiration, and long-forgotten memories. Theta can bring deep states of meditation and a sensation of "floating." Because it is an expansive state, Theta may take the mind beyond the boundaries of the body.Theta rests directly on the threshold of the subconscious. In biofeedback, it is most commonly associated with the deepest levels of meditation. Theta also plays an important part in behavior modification programs and has been used in the treatment of drug and alcohol addiction. Theta is an ideal state for super-learning, reprogramming the mind, dream recall, and self-hypnosis.
Theta waves range between 4-7 Hz. The Theta state is one of the more elusive and extraordinary realms to be explored. It is also known as the twilight state, normally experience only fleetingly as one rises out of the depths of Delta on waking or drifting off to sleep. In Theta one is in a waking dream, as vivid imagery flashes before the mind's eye and it is receptive to information beyond normal conscious awareness.
Theta has also been identified as the gateway to memory (mindfulness). Theta meditation increases creativity, enhances learning, reduces stress, and awakens intuition and other extrasensory perception skills. To enter the Theta state it may be helpful to try Deep Meditation, Sacred Ground, Guided Meditation, Deep Learning, or Deep Insight.
