Connect your Children with Mother Nature
Humanity is going through existential crisis. Rapid industrialization and fast paced lifestyle is leading mankind to various perils associated with physical, mental and emotional health. The fundamental reason for this is disconnection of man with Mother Nature. Have you ever thought that Mother Nature needs no connection with you. Actually, you are part of Mother Nature Herself !
You forget the simple fact that you are not machines but living, thinking and feeling entities of the great wonderful power whom you call Mother Nature. So when do you start losing connection with Her ? It begins right from your childhood when you start going to school. You start schooling to gain education. Unfortunately, modern education system simply cuts you off from Nature from your very first day of school. Nature Herself is powerful teacher. Once a child starts to understand the language of Nature, it will automatically begin to love Nature and develop into a wonderful and complete human being.
Do not repeat this mistake with your children. Spare some time with your children everyday and take them outdoors in the open under the sky. Let children directly perceive Nature. Show and explain various aspects of the five aspects of Nature as follows:
- Sky: Show various colours of sky at various times of days and seasons.
- Water: Show them snow, rain, rivers, streams, wells, ponds, sea
- Earth: Show them various types of sand, colors of sand, varieties of sand
- Air: Make them experience humid, chill, warm, hot air
- Fire: Show sunrise, sunset and noon time sun. Show them horizon and various colors of sun.
Benefits of Binaural Beats
For example, if a person hears a tone of 405 Hz in one ear and a tone of 415 Hz in the other, they would be hearing a binaural beat with a frequency of 10 Hz. Your right and left ear each receive a slightly different frequency tone, yet the brain perceives these as a single tone.
Binaural beat therapy is an emerging form of sound wave therapy. It helps in the treatment of anxiety, stress, and related disorders. This self-help treatment is usually available in the form of audio recordings that a person listens to on stereo headphones. Doctors consider this treatment to be semi-experimental.
Listening to binaural beats for a recommended period can affect a person’s subsequent behavior and sleep cycles.
Our brain waves have different frequencies as per our mental state. They are as follows:
- Beta waves (13-16 Hz) occur when we are awake and alert.
- Alpha waves (8-12 Hz) happen when we are relaxed with eyes closed, as in meditation.
- Theta waves (4-7 Hz) are common in the lighter stages of sleep or the transition from waking to sleeping.
- Delta waves (0.5-4 Hz) signify a state of deep sleep.
A binaural beat with a frequency between 4 and 7 Hz therefore is more likely to align with theta brain waves, promoting sleep and relaxation.
The purpose of using binaural beats therapy may differ among individuals. Some people may need help decreasing their anxiety, while others might want to increase their concentration or deepen their level of meditation. Proponents of binaural beat therapy suggest that the potential benefits include:
- Reduced stress and anxiety
- Increased focus, concentration, and motivation
- Improved confidence
- Better long term memory after exposure to beta pattern frequencies
- Deeper meditation
- Enhanced psychomotor performance and mood
How to use Binaural Beats:
To listen to binaural beats, a person will need a pair of stereo headphones and an MP3 player or another music system. Many apps, podcasts, and other online services provide free access to binaural beats - often in conjunction with guided meditations, music, or other auditory stimuli intended to promote relaxation or focus.
Today's modern fast paced lifestyle causes stress, anxiety, sleep issues and restlessness. It is always best to use safe, alternative healing methods than to go for allopathic medicines that have serious side-effects. Binaural Beats is therefore a good way of trying to deal with the above problems.
