BrainTap Guided Meditation
A BrainTap session at Radiant Journey Wellness Studio is a quick and easy way to optimize your brain’s peak potential. Backed by neuroscience and research, BrainTap is proven to help people who experience high stress, difficulty sleeping, low energy, and other lifestyle challenges.
BrainTap Guided Meditation
Braintapping creates a symphony of brainwave activity, a feeling of calm focus that’s just right for learning and productivity. Each session is designed with brainwave balance in mind. The calming, rejuvenating effects of 10 to 20 minutes of braintapping serve to balance your nervous system and inoculate you against the stressors of everyday life. Braintapping trains your brain to be resilient and creative, and it activates the right mental states at the right time. In other words, you become your best version of you!

How Does BrainTap Work?
What is the SCIENCE behind BrainTap? In this short video, learn how BrainTap works from Dr. Patrick Porter, developer of the BrainTap system.
BrainTap Features
After decades of research, Dr. Porter has developed a truly revolutionary concept in BrainTap — a powerfully effective tool designed to help people like you achieve balanced brainwave states that enhance production of all the necessary neurotransmitters needed for optimal function of body and mind.
​
This exclusive, copyrighted technology has been extensively tested to create the perfect symmetry of sound, music, and spoken word for the ultimate in brainwave training and relaxation, providing your mind and body with all the benefits of meditation without the disciplined effort.
Binaural Beats
When two different tones, separated in frequency by only a few Hertz, are introduced — one in each ear — the brain perceives a third, unique tone. Binaural beats work by creating this phantom frequency, which the brain then mimics. For example, if we play a 220 Hz carrier tone into the left ear and a 226.5 Hz carrier tone into the right ear, your brain perceives the difference between the two, which is a subtle beat frequency of 6.5 Hz, the same frequency associated with deep, meditative states. Your brain naturally follows this frequency, and you experience this deeply relaxed state.
​
BrainTap’s proprietary algorithms have been shown to produce a state of calm and concentration in the brain, yielding the full effect of the guided visualization, and resulting in extraordinary levels of performance that would otherwise take years of practice to achieve.

10-Cycle Holographic Music
Another aid to the guided meditation is 10-cycle holographic music, which is a sonic technology that produces a 360-degree sound environment.
​
In this sonic environment, the visualizations become more real to the mind, helping the user take full advantage of the power of the visualizations by creating a more receptive learning state.
Isochronic Tones
Isochronic tones are equal intensity pulses of sound separated by an interval of silence. They turn on and off rapidly, but the speed depends on the desired brain frequency. The discrete nature of isochronic tones makes them particularly easy for the brain to follow.
While binaural beats rely on balanced hearing in both ears, isochronic tones work effectively for nearly everyone, except for someone with complete hearing loss. This is one of the reasons BrainTap’s proprietary algorithms incorporate both types of tones.
BrainTap Headset
The BrainTap headset uses unique frequencies of light and sound to produce incomparable brain fitness.
​
Think Better – BrainTap gives you the gift of a present mind. Instead of feeling overwhelmed and distressed, you feel energized, focused, and confident.
​
Sleep Better – Retrain your brain to relax into your body’s natural sleep pattern and awaken rested, revitalized, and renewed.
​
Perform Better – As your brain develops a heightened sense of clarity and your energy returns to full form, your performance accelerates naturally.
​
The added dimension of the headset’s light frequencies lets you reach the most advantageous brain states possible without years of disciplined practice. Pulsing light, in the correct pattern and intensity, can produce levels of deep relaxation known to affect serotonin and endorphin levels, with an average increase of 21 percent in one study. These increases not only can calm and relax the mind but also produce powerful effects in maintaining a positive outlook and optimistic thinking.
Brainwave Entrainment
Our brains produce electrical charges. These charges create a rhythm know as brainwave patterns. These patterns are observable through electroencephalograph (EEG) instruments. EEGs record and measure large amounts of neurons firing in unison. Although these are not all brainwaves, brainwave patterns are commonly grouped into four different categories: beta, alpha, theta and delta. In recent years, with better measurement technology, a fifth brainwave, gamma, has been identified. Each of these brainwave patterns is associated with various states of mind.
Beta brainwaves (13-30 Hz)
Active and Awake
This is the wide-awake alert state where you spend most of your waking life. Beta is your reactionary mind. It is the level of your mind where fears, frustrations and negative emotions are processed. This is also where the strongest filtering system operates. It is called the critical factor. The key purpose in using the BrainTap headset is to train your mind to get out of this state where stress is dominant. While we don’t train to beta, there’s an improvement that happens because of the harmonics that occur when using the proprietary algorithms of the BrainTap system.
Alpha brainwaves (8-13 Hz)
Relaxed, Intuitive, and Creative.
Alpha is the frequency most associated with creativity, imagination and flow. This state is the intuitive mind. It is also the brain state associated with relaxation, tranquility and daydreaming. Flow thinking, or a state of inward awareness, takes place in alpha. It is also known as a super-learning state. Alpha waves occur during rest, when daydreaming, when the eyes are closed, and during meditation or mindfulness practices. Alpha waves are the desired results of meditators. It may take 10 years of practice or more to produce consistent alpha waves using traditional meditation methods, but with the braintapping the enhancement of alpha can happen in just minutes. It is believed that many creative geniuses, such as Einstein, stayed in an alpha state of the time. These insightful people often had poor grades in school and were thought to be slow learners. They were likely too busy daydreaming and conceptualizing how the world works to pay attention in class.
Theta brainwaves (4-8 Hz)
Healing and Super Learning.
This is the breakthrough state where you can reinvent your life. Theta is the inventive mind. Often referred to as the twilight state, theta borders on sleep, where one is not quite awake but not quite asleep. It is a meditative state that provides access to the other-than-conscious mind where you have higher levels of creativity, learning, and inspiration, and it is a state that is known for improving long-term memory. Children under the age of 6 operate in theta almost all the time, which explains their unique ability to learn rapidly and without effort. Theta is also the state in which the BrainTap headset helps you to visualize and realize your goals. Theta is a somewhat mysterious and elusive state of mind. Most people find it nearly impossible to maintain because they fall asleep. But with the assistance of the audio-visual stimulation of the BrainTap headset, theta can be generated for much longer and more productive periods of time than could ever be achieved with one’s own efforts.
Delta brainwaves (1-4 Hz)
Deep Sleep and Recovery.
Delta waves are the slowest of brainwaves and are generated during deep, dreamless sleep. This state is the unconscious mind. With the exception of the Healthy Sleep Habits and PM Series, BrainTap audios keep you from falling into this state of sleep. This is why the light and sound patterns of the BrainTap headset system continue to change throughout the session. Newborns operate in delta alone, thus their constant need for sleep and perpetual dreamy appearance. There is growing evidence that individuals may maintain a slightly conscious state while in delta.

The only known side effects are improved memory, great sleep, focus, concentration, and reduced stress. However, flashing lights have been known to cause problems in people who suffer from serious medical conditions like epilepsy, seizure disorders, brain injury, or photosensitivity. If you have any of these concerns, you should ask your medical professional if light and sound technology is right for you.
