ASBH Home Page Effects of 6-10 Hz ELF on Brain Waves Article by David S. Walonick, originally printed in Borderlands (Vol. XLVI, Nos. 3&4, May – August 1990) There is evidence that ELF magnetic waves can affect brain waves. The specific ELF frequencies I was interested in studying are 6-10 Hertz. A question of importance is: “If we can electronically shift the brain wave frequencies to alpha or theta, will a person’s moods or thought patterns change to those commonly associated with those frequencies?”. When I began these experiments, I was well aware of the possible ethical implications involved in ELF research. I decided to undertake this research with full knowledge of the ethical implications. I began by collecting all the available research on ELF fields. Equipment The equipment required for this research was easily attainable, with the notable exception of a stable frequency counter with .01 Hertz resolution. The transducer was a 24″ diameter hand-wound coil, consisting of 1000′ of #25 magnetic wire. Experimental Design Results Summary

Core - The Power of Vibrations “In the beginning was the word.” The Big Bang Theory. What do they each express? The vibration of sound … the primordial sound … the power of vibrations … the life force … the vital spark that shows that living entities are more than a simple collection of chemicals … all this and more. In studies thousands of years ago the Hindus in India named these vibrations prana, while the Chinese called it ch’i and created their entire practice of medicine around this vibration of life. The Japanese call this power of vibration the ki. The vibrations of the human energy field are now shown, measured, and photographed by modern scientific instruments to diagnose and treat disease states … witness the use of EKG’s, EMG’s, EEG’s, and X-rays. In the laboratory scientists can use the SQUID or Superconducting Quantum Interface Device to detect the ultra-sensitive magnetic field surrounding the hands of a healer intent on sending healing energy to a recipient.

Society for Science-Based Medicine Isochronic Tones - What They Are: The Research and the Benefits What are isochronic tones? Why use isochronic tones and other brainwave stimulation? When isochronic tones are utilized as a stimulus under specific circumstances, research has shown evidence of beneficial outcomes such as anxiety reduction and increased concentration. Here are just a few of the reasons one might use this technology, with links to even more information and supporting research. Cognition / Attention / Focus: A growing body of research is showing that brainwave stimulation can be an incredibly effective tool to promote attention and focus. Learn more... Stress Reduction: The sessions included in NP3 are designed to be naturally relaxing, but it also comes with sessions specifically designed for stress and anxiety. Emotional Stability / Mood Support: Decades of neurofeedback research have revealed specific brainwave patterns characteristic of negative moods and overly emotional mental states.

Institute for Science in Medicine (ISM) Health effects caused by noise : Evidence in the literature from the past 25 years Ising H, Kruppa B - Noise Health Traffic noise is the most important source of environmental annoyance. According to the Environmental Expert Council of Germany, severe annoyance persistent over prolonged periods of time is to be regarded as causing distress. Previously, extraaural noise effects were mostly assessed using a paradigm in which the sound level played the major role. On the basis of this paradigm the relatively low sound level of environmental noise was not considered to be a potential danger to health. Keywords: Noise, environmental, occupational, annoyance, stress hormones, cardiovascular risk The Federal Immission Protection Act (BundesImmissionsschutzgesetz) specifies adverse environmental noise effects on the general public or in specific neighbourhoods as hazards, such as health risks,substantial losses, e.g. in property values,substantial disturbances. Acute noise events which do not cause permanent health impairments are considered as non-substantial. sufficientlimitedinadequate
