I know you’re sitting around thinking to yourself “why can’t I concentrate, sleep, slow down the aging process, wake up in the morning or become more creative?” The reason you can’t is because you’re a failure, and you’re doomed to be subpar in everything you do - but wait! There’s hope!

This site has a program you can download that will generate “binaural frequencies” when you’re wearing headphones. It’s my understanding that these are basically inaudible frequencies that are generated by playing a different frequency in each ear, and leading your brain to create the difference as a sub-audible sound. Why do this? According to Wikipedia (my foremost resource for blog research):
“some believe that binaural beats can influence functions of the brain besides those related to hearing. This phenomenon is called frequency following response. The concept is that if one receives a stimulus with a frequency in the range of brain waves, the predominant brain wave frequency is said to be likely to move towards the frequency of the stimulus (a process called entrainment).”
I know! Can you believe it! I have a collection of effects, some of which actually claim to be things as far fetched as anti-aging, astral projection, weight loss, grow-your-hair-back. Ridiculous. I called bullcrap on this, but I’m playing with it anyways - if you see me next time with a full(er) head of hair, a long beard, walking with a confident stride, 10 pounds lighter, and well-rested you can take that as undeniable proof of the placebo effect.
