When working from you (home) office,
People are constantly distracted — every day, everywhere. This likely includes you too.
Ongoing distractions not only hinder Deep Work but also lead to fewer concious relaxation moments and poor sleep. These distractions are also linked to higher levels of anxiety, insomnia, and even burnout or depression.
Or while traveling during long flights.
During long flights, distractions are constant — making it hard to work, relax, or sleep well.
These ongoing interruptions not only prevent you from being productive but also leave little time for relaxation or quality sleep. As a result, you may feel fatigued and unproductive, making your journey less enjoyable.
But what is happening in your brain?
Distractions disrupt your brain’s balance by disrupting its natural frequency patterns.
When brain waves are out of sync, it leads to feelings of imbalance. Often, this results in heightened activity in the left brain, hindering the optimal collaboration between the rational and creative sides, reducing overall efficiency.
Research shows that when brain waves are not in their optimal frequency, it can lead to discomfort and imbalance.
For example, the Dutch Brain Institute highlights that excessive beta waves, associated with focus, can cause stress. Additionally, studies on binaural beats show how listening to specific frequencies can improve brain wave synchronization, enhancing relaxation and focus.These findings emphasize the importance of balanced brain wave activity for better mental wellbeing and performance.
Your goal is to balance both brain hemispheres for optimal performance.
