The science behind PowerNap
Brain wave rangeAlpha & Theta (12Hz - 4Hz)
Alpha and theta are slower patterns of brain activity, common when you're relaxed but awake (alpha) and during drowsiness and deep relaxation (theta).
PowerNap is 20 minutes of restorative audio designed around alpha & theta frequencies (12Hz - 4Hz), with a frequency boost from Ignite near the end of the program.
