This page is a continuation of the previous page on alpha waves during NSR.

The following are EEGs of the same subject practicing the NSR technique: one can clearly see alpha waves at 10-12 Hz, with an almost total absence of other frequencies.


Alpha waves during NSR: lower anxiety and stress


All this happens intentionally and systematically, and leads to a remarkable relaxation and reduction of anxiety. From a subjective point of view, the mind acquires a state of "restful alertness", a state of "pure consciousness" devoid of specific thoughts. In the yoga tradition, this is known as a fourth major state of consciousness (the first three being waking, dreaming, and deep sleep), or "a state of transcendence".

The following equivalences are valid as a first approximation:
state of waking = beta waves
state of calm wakefulness (transcending) = alpha waves
state of dreaming = theta waves
state of deep sleep = delta waves

Below we offer data for another practitioner.


Alpha waves during the Natural Stress Relief technique


We also obtained data of a long-time practitioner of NSR, that are not displayed here. Two dominant frequencies are observed, one slow alpha around 9 Hz and one theta around approximately 6 Hz. There is also a beta component around 18 Hz. All of this presents at first sight an apparently chaotic picture which actually turns out to show great order from a mathematical point of view.
