About the Workshop

Created in the 1960s by Robert A. Monroe, a pioneering consciousness researcher and inventor, Hemi-Sync® is scientifically and clinically proven, patented, audio technology that works by sending a complex blend of different sounds (tones) to each ear via stereo headphones.

The two sides of your brain then work together to “hear” a third signal called a binaural beat that is the difference between the two tones. This is not actually a sound, but rather an electrical signal that can only be perceived within your brain when both sides of your brain are working together. The result is a focused, whole-brain state called hemispheric synchronization or “Hemi-Sync.”

When you listen to stereo headphones and a sound of 100 Hertz is played in one ear while a sound of 104 Hertz is played in the other ear, your brain “hears” the difference between the two sounds. In this example, 4 Hertz.

When you listen to binaural beats for a length of time your brain waves begin to synchronize according to the frequency of the binaural beat. This is why different combinations of Hemi-Sync signals can help you achieve different states of consciousness.

These maps of brain wave activity show how listening to Hemi-Sync can shift your normal random brain activity (left image) to a more focused and organized pattern (right image) enabling you to use more of your brain in an effective way.

Depending on the intended goals, Hemi-Sync products combine music, verbal guidance or subtle sound effects with Hemi-Sync to strengthen its effectiveness. Although Hemi-Sync® recordings use a mix of sound frequencies, learning products use predominantly Beta frequencies (14 -27 Hertz) to help you focus with laser-like attention, sleep products use primarily Delta frequencies (0.5 – 4 Hertz) to help you relax and sleep; and so forth.

After more than 40 years of research and clinical-testing Hemi-Sync has been proven to be safe and effective in a wide variety of applications.

While the list of things you can use it for is too long to include here, Hemi-Sync has been used for many years for the objectives listed below:

1. Stress reduction and relaxation
2. Sustained focused attention
3. Enhanced creativity and visualization
4. Creative problem solving
5. Emotional healing and releasing fears
6. Perceiving higher energy systems
7. Improved access to inner guidance
8. Experiencing your Higher Self
