Ok so far so good. Mostly. I did meditate Monday night before bed with some binaural beats I got from a Free App called BinauralBeat. I listened to quite a few previews on itunes and there are some great albums out there with good background music. The beat itself is actually just one continuous hum. I chose this app because it is free mainly but I am enjoying it. I do not love the background noises but you can listen to just the beat and I seem to prefer that. It does not specify what brain wave you are working on but based on the descriptions and the research I did on Monday I can figure it out.
On Monday and Tuesday before I went to bed I listened to a "Dream" beat. Probably a Delta. I did experience increased and more vivid dreams that I remembered long after I woke up. The remembering is a miracle, usually I wake up with my littlest saying "get up get up. I'm Hungry."Not a great way to wake up if you want to remember your dreams.
Today I found 30 minutes to meditate quietly outside thanks to a quick episode of Diego for the kids. I was enjoying myself at first then I became fidgety and distracted. I made it through a full 30 minutes but I am going to practice some more with this. I am also going to spend a few bucks on a real binaural mp3. Turns out I may just be enjoying a placebo effect with my free app. Apparently the good stuff cost a bit of money. We shall see. So far i am enjoying the beats and I am feeling a greater calm and sense of clarity, even if just a little. I will continue to meditate 1-2x per day with the binaural beats. Wish me luck and focus!
