Thank you
Feel free to pass this on. This group is going to read my dashboard analytics on Monday so you could go a couple of reads worth if that does not conflict with your ethics?

My daughter was born with a lesion which blocks memories from recall once in long term memory in the brain. The learning specialist used a series of sound waves and very low dose Adderall, to train the brain to intake material through new avenues…the results were amazing…then we added using the cell phone and lap top into the process and Voila she is now a college graduate – and if she wanted to she could pass algebra too….probably not higher thinking maths…but what an opportunity …
I love learning all these new things and I thank you for sharing them..
Food has quite an affect on the brain also.
Love the drawings…

If you are between 1-4Hz it is the Delta state (slow wave sleep), 4-7 is Theta (drowsiness – between sleep/wakefulness), 8-12 is Alpha (relaxation), and 12-30 is Beta (alertness/active concentration).

We’ll get Tim on board somehow…

I’d love to do a guest spot for you, and I’m really glad you like the blog. Can’t wait to see your new site, as well.

Yes, I definitely think people need to start with the cheap $10 versions. If they have somebody to give them a roadmap, that would make it easier to pick the right ones.

PS – I agree with your take on product positioning. Tim Ferris makes a similar point in the ‘Four Hour Work Week’ – price high and people assume you are awesome. I agree that Holosync does this well, but I imagine the cost is a massive barrier to entry to people considering binaural beats for the first time. As such, I feel my duty is to tell the world that you can get very similar results from $10!

I genuinely believe the world would be a happier place if everyone used these crazy things. It might not cure world hunger, but it would probably stop people from being furious with their lot in life. I might even buy Tim some for Christmas, he’ll love me forever…

It’s always great to meet another Holosync user who’s had massive benefits – and one who proselytises everybody he knows!

I agree that Holosync is exhorbitant compared to every other alternative out there. I’ve reached the conclusion that what you’re paying for is the exclusivity factor. I’m sure you’ll know the marketing theory that you either price yourself just below the competition, or miles above as a “designer” effect. Amazingly, people will pay more because they associate paying more with getting a better product. And because it prices people out of the market – the ones to whom they want to feel superior.

Not that that’s why Holosync users pick Holosync. I chose it simply because people I trusted used it. It’s always been hugely expensive and long before the Secret came out, people complained that it was expensive.

I agree that it’s really worth a try for everybody. Please let me know when your site is up and running and I’ll promote it on Zen in Heels.

I’ve used Holosync, Meditation Machines, Binaural Beats, Isochronic tones and just about every other brainwave entrainment tool I can get my hand on.

I’ve also brainwashed friends, colleagues and family members to try them out too. Almost universally, they seem to work… in fact, my father was the only person I know who HASN’T got good results from using them, and his main complaint was in the repetitive tones (now you can get MP3s with relaxing music over the top)

For me, not only do the short term effects make the investment worthwhile (you feel amazing afterwards – relaxed, calm, positive), but the longer term benefits I’ve experienced include a better outlook on life; increased happiness; less stress. If I wasn’t scared of being mocked by this healthily sceptical crowd, I’d say that the right and left sides of my brain tend to get on better now too, resulting in quicker decision making and problem solving skills.

Admittedly, I’ve been focussing on personal development and NLP a lot so this has to take some credit too, but binaural beats and all their curiously named brothers are well worth a look in my book.

I’m actually about to start a second website focussed on brainwave entrainment – I want to convince the masses to give this affordable and potentially life-alterning technology a go. I’ve convinced so many sceptics to try this stuff and it really does seem to work – you can put it on your ipod too and listen on the go.

My final thought is that Holosync is awesome but very expensive, and I get similar results with $10-$15 downloads from a couple of awesome online stores. With Holosync, I think you’re paying for the name (Bill Harris who runs the company was featured in Tim’s favourite, The Secret)

Cor… rant over.
