In brain wave frequencies,
theta is the
frequency range where
drowsiness,
unconciousness,
dreaming states and deep
tranquility happen. Most daydreaming occurs while in the theta range. It is normally a very positive mental state.
Theta is approximately 4 to 7 cps (cycles per second). Some researchers regard theta to be 5 to 8 cps.
With practice,
meditation can also lower a person's brain wave frequency to theta while allowing the meditator to remain concious.
Prolonged states of the theta brain wave frequency while
concious can be extremely
productive and a time of very
meaningful/
creative mental activity.
