After using Holosync and Hemi-Sync products to meditate and sleep for the last 10 years, I decided it was time to start making my own binaural beat tracks that didn't have all the extra sound effects and dated music added on top.
Before making my own track, I came to YouTube and was shocked to see all the garbage there is out here. Unlock your codons with a DNA-healing miracle tone? Please. That's not remotely how binaural beats work… and 528 Hz is an annoying, uncomfortable tone to listen to. Schumann resonance doesn't apply here, either, because we're not vibrating every cell of the body with a loudspeaker, we're only playing gentle tones into the ears.
This video isn't perfect, either, and much of the information contained in it has not yet been verified by perusing actual scientific research papers. There's a ton of information about binaural beats on the Internet, the vast majority of which is basically made-up trash.
For now, based on what I know today, I'm certain that listening to the audio contained in this presentation (with stereo headphones) will help anybody enjoy a peaceful, restful, deep sleep … or, at the very least, become very calm and relaxed. I used myself as a guinea pig and tested this track for a week before posting it here. I was thrilled with the results!
As far as volume goes, make sure it's loud enough that you can clearly hear the tones in both ears, but quiet enough that you'll be able to fall asleep without being distracted by the noise.
Enjoy!

what headphones do you use to sleep? also are you a side sleeper like i am? my wife and I do get some snuggle time in so I picked up some blue tooth speakers so I don’t strangle myself when I roll over. Recommend brands ?
Hey Josh! Speakers will create a monaural beat, not a binaural beat … some people say a monaural beat is just as effective (though I haven’t tried it myself).
If you’re looking for headphones that won’t get in the way while you’re trying to sleep (especially on your side), check out these flat headband headphones (CozyPhones): https://amzn.to/2TcdGaK
These are wired, however — I still haven’t found any Bluetooth headphones that I really like.
When I’m especially insomniac and need some binaural beats to help slow my brain down, I wear a set of standard “over-the-ear” headphones (lying on my back) and listen until I feel myself getting super-heavy. Then I just take off the headphones, roll over and go to sleep.
Do the sleep headbands work for binaural beats as there aren’t in ear or do they still work with the flat speakers?
Thank you jody.
You can use any over-the-ear headphones with binaural beats. They don’t have to be in-ear.
