Emotions
Given that brainwaves and emotions are interlinked, it is logic that
different emotions from happiness, love, joy, enthusiasm and euphoria to
sadness, hatred, fear, anger and depression come with different levels of
brainwaves.
Beta waves are associated with anxiety, anger, nervousness; Alpha waves
can lead to a very contented and happy state of mind; the Theta brainwave
state of mind is associated with strong, powerful emotions like feeling
carefree and emotionally connected with others; and the Delta state can
give the feeling of a deep trance and listlessness. However, it is
important to understand that problems can be caused if a brain wave rhythm
becomes too dominant. Too much beta brainwaves will often block out our
emotions or keep us from fully experience our natural emotions. This will
be reversed when theta brainwaves return or are strengthened so that we
can ‘learn to feel and understand our emotions better.’

Depression and other often hidden emotions such as fear, anger, shame and
grief ‘can negatively affect us long after the original event that
caused them. When our body fails to “let go” of these emotions, we can
find ourselves with unhealthy patterns, destructive beliefs and negative
relationships, even physical problems,’ Neuro Emotional Technique®
(N.E.T.)* – therapist Roxanne Dominis states.
*N.E.T. ‘uses acupuncture meridians to help clients tap into where we
are storing emotions in our bodies.’
One more thing about the relation between brainwaves, mental state and
emotions: When the right brainwave patterns occur, ‘they seem to evoke
certain super states of the brain. These can range from mental focus,
great creativity and even the ability to overcome any of the phobias,
addictions and other mental disorders in the brain.’ By using
brainwave entrainment technology, ‘you can directly affect your
emotions, get rid of the negative ones and only use the positive ones to
amp them up and make them a tangible force in your life.
