Alpha Brainwave and Mystical Experiences

There are three brainwave states: gamma beta alpha, theta and delta. One is not better than the other but all important for optimal performance. Gamma waves observed during higher mental processing, problem solving tasks,. Also interestingly in states of heightened consciousness which suggests that they may also play a role in mystical experiences. Beta waves associated with alertness, concentration, decision making, and exercise indicating that theyplay a role in motor function. Too much beta brainwave can result in a person overthinking.
