Neuroscientists recently made a correlation between an increase of alpha brain waves—either through electrical stimulation or mindfulness and meditation—and the ability to reduce depressive symptoms ...

Numerous potential treatments for neurological conditions, including autism spectrum disorders, have worked well in lab mice ...

Can you 'think' yourself into clearer skin? Neuroscientist Ana Ibáñez explains how Alpha brainwaves lower cortisol and unlock ...

Achieve peak productivity by manipulating brain wave states. Instead of constantly operating in beta, shift to alpha for creativity, theta for deep insight, and gamma for breakthrough. Find "flow ...

Can’t sleep? Between screen time and the demands of daily life, your brain doesn’t just shut off when you hit the pillow. Sleep experts say your brain waves control how well you sleep. Think of your ...
