So wird es beschrieben

Alpha is the ultimate "feel-good state" of the brain. In this state, you are awake and alert, yet simultaneously physically and mentally completely relaxed. It is the perfect state for working productively without stress, learning, being creative, or diving into the famous "flow state".

Ideal for studying, working, or reading – stereo headphones recommended.

Die einzelnen Frequenzen

Lower Alpha (Mu Rhythm)

8–9 Hz

Motor planning, mirror neurons, and empathy

The lower alpha range overlaps with the mu rhythm – a brainwave originating in the motor cortex that is associated with mirror neurons. Mu waves are suppressed when we observe actions or empathize with others.

At 8–9 Hz, the brain is in transition from theta to alpha – a state of deep physical relaxation with light mental activity. This range is explored in neurofeedback research for social cognition and empathy training.
