Excerpt from Chapter 10 Let Magic Happen:
Adventures in Healing with a Holistic Radiologist

Monroe had spontaneous out-of-body experiences while experimenting with sleep learning techniques. His book describes his attempts to apply the scientific method to evaluate his adventures traveling in what he described as the “second body.” He created a technical breakthrough of “binaural” beats sounded through stereo headphones with a slightly different frequency in each ear. These binaural beats entrain the brainwaves to the “beat frequency,” which is the difference between the two frequencies. To shift to the alpha state, Monroe used frequencies that differed by 8 to 12 Hz, one in each ear. For theta states, he adjusted the difference to 4 to 8 Hz, and for delta states, to 1.5 to 4 Hz.
