HOW IT WORKS
Check your mobile plan. If you have unlimited data, then your carrier won’t charge you any extra fees to stream from QuietSelf. If you’re on a limited data plan, then time spent streaming from QuietSelf will be part of your usage. If you are instead using WiFi to access QuietSelf, then your mobile carrier will not assess data usage fees. For QuietSelf, and everything else, always use WiFi when you can. It’s faster and doesn’t hit your data plan.
Paid memberships to QuietSelf provide you with access to the subscriber-only audio in the Library. The Free Membership, on the other hand, entitles you to 3 Experiences we’ve selected from the current library. Additionally, while paid Memberships are renewed either annually or monthly, depending on which you choose, Free Memberships never require renewal.
Brain entrainment is a technology whereby the brain naturally aligns and synchronizes itself with brainwave frequencies. Audio brain entrainment uses auditory stimuli to trigger this synchronization. You can read more about QuietSelf brainwave technology here.
Not at all. Hypnosis is a relaxed state of focused awareness electively entered into by the participant. Hypnotherapy is the use by a trained clinician of hypnosis modalities to assist clients and patients in coping positively with life issues. Brain entrainment, on the other hand, is a technology of helping the physical brain (not to be confused with the mind) function at certain frequencies associated with natural physical states such as calmness, dreaminess, alertness, etc. You can read more about QuietSelf brain technology here.
First and foremost, headphones or earbuds are a great way to help you tune out the external world of noise and stress and focus solely on your meditation or introspection. Additionally, some audio brain entrainment can be of benefit only if both ears are engaged with different frequencies. So, we put one frequency in the left headphone and another in the right headphone. As you play the audio through headphones, each ear receives only its frequency, and not the frequency the other ear receives, thereby creating the entrainment process.
