GAMMA WAVES (40 or more cycles per second) & Your Dominant Brainwave Patterns

GAMMA WAVES (40 or more cycles per second)

  

Faster than beta waves, gamma waves are the only brainwaves found in every part of the brain.

Gamma waves range from the frequency of 40 Hz to 70 Hz and have only slight amplitude.

 

Gamma waves have not traditionally been considered with the 4 main brainwave frequencies,

but as more research is performed and more is known about gamma waves,

the more important they are considered to brain functioning.

 

It has been hypothesized that when the brain needs to process information

from its different anatomical areas that gamma activity consolidates the areas for simultaneous processing.

 

A good memory is associated with well-regulated and efficient gamma activity,

whereas a gamma deficiency creates learning disabilities.

They are associated with increased levels of compassion, feelings of happiness,

ideal brain functioning, conscious awareness of reality and increased mental abilities.

 

Advanced meditators have more gamma brainwaves compared to non-meditators

and the higher the number of gamma brainwaves present, the deeper the meditation state.

 

Gamma brainwaves are believed essential to performing at an ideal level.

Peak performers have large amounts of gamma brainwave activity compared with others.

Alpha followed by gamma creates peak mental preparation and performance.

 

Just like any of the other brainwave patterns, too much of one rhythm can cause problems.

Gamma brainwaves are present with increasing levels of stress and anxiety.

When many gamma waves are seen in combination with beta waves on an E.E.G,

usually high levels of anxiety are present.

 

In summary, there are five brainwave states that range from the high amplitude,

low frequency delta to the low amplitude, high frequency gamma.

 

These brainwave states range from deep dreamless sleep to high arousal.

Research has shown that although one brainwave state may predominate at any given time,

depending on the actions of the individual, the remaining brain states are always present.

 

In other words, while in an aroused state and showing a beta brainwave pattern,

there also exists a component of alpha, theta, delta and gamma,

even though these may be present only at the trace level.
