Why Achieve Alpha?  Continued

 

If you are a student or are studying for a promotional exam, try utilizing alpha frequency sessions. You should find that any test anxiety you are experiencing will be decreased or negated altogether. And remember that alpha sessions can be highly beneficial before, during (wearing headphones) and after studying.

Here is a description of how this technology (alpha sessions in particular) has been applied in various businesses that I have worked with. There are a variety of ways to incorporate light and sound and/or sound only stimulation into a business environment. The following methods have been quite successful.

Many companies have developed stress management workshops for their employees, others have turned “break rooms” into relaxation areas and others allow personal light and sound systems into the employee workplace. Utilizing light and sound or sound only instrumentation in the work environment is a win / win situation for the employer / employee because the more relaxed from stressors a person is, the more resourceful, accurate and productive that employee becomes.

Employers who have incorporated learning / relaxation tools and / or seminars into their company have observed an increase in employee relations and productivity, and a decrease in employee absenteeism due to stress. Considering medical and research doctors estimate 70% to 90% of all illness is due to stress, these instruments become not only cost effective, but also increases the employee effectiveness within the company.

Stress management seminars for employees include a variety of tools and techniques for coping with daily stressors, improving on-task focus and achieving peak performance. Light and sound instruments can be used to attain each one of these goals. As mentioned previously, fifteen to twenty minute alpha light and sound sessions will allow you to relax, yet remain mentally alert and focused. For achieving peak performance, research indicates the utilization of many frequencies, mainly gamma. More information concerning peak performance can be found in the References & Suggested Reading section.
