Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between brown noise and white noise

Brown noise emphasizes low frequencies and feels grounding.

White noise spreads all frequencies evenly and feels neutral.

For long focus sessions, brown noise is often more supportive.

Do binaural beats really affect focus

They can.

Their impact depends on structure, duration, and how they are integrated into a sound environment.

Mindful Frequencies Lab uses musical design to make binaural listening sustainable, not mechanical.

Beta supports active thinking. Alpha supports calm concentration.

The right state depends on the task and your energy level.
