Daily life is often filled with problems, questions that generate stress.

As we know, this situation is not good for health and therefore for the brain.

Relaxing it allows you to find a necessary inner peace.

The brain and how it works

The organ in the middle of our head is made up of approximately 86 billion neurons.

This nerve cell handles information processing and communication.

This is quite simply what allows us to be endowed with a certain intelligence.

Without neurons, no language, no memory, no emotions.

The senses that we have are therefore useful thanks to the neurons which allow the transmission of information thanks to an electrical substance which they release and which is called a neurotransmitter.

If the brain is the scene of the crossing of electric waves, then it can be seen as a generator which is traversed by an electric voltage.

These waves can be measured at their different frequencies, expressed in Hertz, which result from brain activity.

It is possible to classify them into different categories:

• Gamma waves or concept emergence waves (> 30Hz): this is high-level intense mental activity
• Beta waves or waves of daily waking activity (13 to 30Hz): produced in active wakefulness
• Alpha waves or light relaxation waves (8 to 12Hz): The attention is slackened when our arousal state decreases which has the effect of slowing down brain activity. The waves are then of low frequency.
• Theta waves or deep relaxation waves (4 to 8Hz): they are produced in a state of slow sleep or deep relaxation
• Delta waves or sleep waves (0.1 to 4Hz): those related to sleep or to the unconscious state

Finding inner peace goes through a phase of relaxation which is necessary for the brain.

Here are some keys that will allow your body and mind to relax.

Meditation is a powerful key to lasting relaxation.

The brain is an organ that needs to be very oxygenated.

So it ultimately depends on healthy breathing.
