Embark on a sonic journey that sponsors deep relaxation, enhanced focus, and a greater sense of being in the moment. The melodious flavors and subtle guidance of the tracks “Borealis” and “Polaris” will call you back into their comfort and mystique, again and again.

• Increase creativity and resourceful states

• Lift and stabilize mood

• Experience enhanced focus and expanded flow of awareness

Alpha Arising is designed to bring the listener into a broad-range alpha brainwave state (non frequency-specific), with an emphasis on promoting resourceful states. This can be experienced as “being in the zone” or flow state awareness while engaged in an activity, so immersed that one loses track of time. The writer becomes writing versus doing writing, for instance. Also, a calm focus is more easily attained — sustained attention with much less mental chatter.

Enhanced creativity and effortlessly making new connections happens naturally. These tracks can also coach the listener into a variety of depths of relaxation, based on the need and intention of the moment. We have also included a 7.83 Hz Schumann Resonance rhythm as a subtle influence of the Earth/Nature/Home feeling that is associated with this frequency, which exists at the threshold of moving from theta into alpha. Some brainwave models still consider 7.83 Hz as within the alpha range.

Alpha waves can amplify your clarity and imagination and boost your performance and creativity. They are said to be the “artist’s brain waves,” where new ideas and solutions are sparked and you connect to your inner playful state of clarity and wisdom.

Alpha helps you become fully present in a state of multidimensional awareness, which increases problem-solving capacity, and you may even experience a sense of deep connection, belonging, and flow.

Alpha is also fundamental to our spiritual growth, since we need a strong alpha in order to establish connections during states of trance, deep meditation, and dream sleep.

The compositional structure of each track is chiefly responsible for the alpha entrainment and relaxation benefits. This includes a psycho-acoustic approach to the melodic flow as well as special emphasis placed on the timbres and overall form of each sound layer in the whole. We have also moderately used vibro-acoustic tones intermittently, to both deepen the state and enhance attention. There is also a subtle isochronic rhythm of 7.83 Hz to round it out.

All of these approaches, coupled with the sonic interpretations of Borealis and Polaris, are designed to immerse the listener in the moment with calm and focused attention.

Track Details

01 Borealis [16:49 minutes]

Moves into alpha dominance. Lush and ambient textures combined with emotive melodic moments. Uses psycho-acoustics, vibro-acoustics, and a Schumann Resonance isochronic rhythm.

02 Polaris [27:53 minutes]

Moves deeper into the alpha/theta domain. Spacious and expansive textures combined with soothing melodic expressions. Uses psycho-acoustics, vibro-acoustics, and a Schumann Resonance isochronic rhythm.

Alpha Arising contains two immersive tracks designed to promote focus, calm, and flow, both by sponsoring alpha waves in the brain and by guiding psycho-emotional experiences through the compositions. These soundscapes were created with the idea of space, our Milky Way galaxy, and Earth’s place within it. This greater perspective of connection fosters a sense of belonging, a deep calm. By having the sense or feeling of safety, comfort, and belonging, we can turn our focus onto what we choose with greater depth and attention. We find ourselves more fully present and in the moment, absorbed in the flow of experience.

Borealis – Flow: Think of the ebb and flow of light and color, shimmery streams of expression within the greater field of cosmic display. Find comfort in the flexibility of awareness, of keeping a calm attention, and adjusting fluidly to the rhythm of the moment.

Polaris – Focus Into Calm: Known also as the North Star, or Pole Star, Polaris is that reference point in the night sky that has aided navigators and travelers for millennia. This relatively fixed position makes it the ideal focal point to help bring everything into focus, to stay the course throughout the journey.

Both of these tracks have been tuned to the life-affirming and grounding Earth (Schumann’s) resonance of 7.8 Hz, a nice lower alpha target frequency.
