Ritual Quotes

“The first is the beta wave, at 15 to 40 cycles a second. This is when our mind is highly engaged. If you’re making a speech, you’re in high beta. Then come the alpha waves at 9 to 14 cycles a second. This is when we take a break from work, sip a cup of tea or go for a walk. The third is the theta wave with 5 to 8 cycles a second. We’re in theta state when we’re daydreaming, running, painting or meditating. Sometimes when we’re in the shower we get a brilliant idea. This happens when the mind is in the theta frequency. The last is delta at 1 1/2 to 4 cycles a second. This happens when we sleep.”
