As your chemical and electrical impulses pass from one chain of neurons to another, the frequency of your impulses can be measured. We call these brain waves. As you go about your day you fluctuate between whatâs called beta and gamma states. These range from 15 to 70 hertz of electrical cycles per second. While this is ideal for quick responses and high level processing, it can also indicate high stress levels and anxiety.In deeper meditative states your brain waves can drop to between 4 and 12 hertz.
