Deep Delta

Another Jeffrey Thompson product on deep-delta.com

And be sure – it will not be the last one… ;-)

Thompson simply publishes some of the best brainwave-related products.

Not the newest sleep CD. But still one of the best.

This one is aimed at those who want to get a full night’s sleep. It can be cycled/repeated all night long and will support natural sleeping patterns.

To quote one happy user:

“I have sleep apnea, insomnia, and I snore like a bear. I have had Delta Sleep System for over a year now and it has made a huge impact to my overall stress / energy levels. With it I fall asleep in 5-10 minutes and get actual real refreshing sleep. It also reduces my snoring (however this is not a cure). The next day I feel calm and happy.

The music / ambient noise itself is clearly designed to slow the mind down. It’s not just white noise like surf or rain. The effect is better with a quality stereo or headphones. As a very skeptical person in general — I must say this has convinced me.

I typically set it to loop both cds and find this does move me up / down the various levels of sleep. The only issues I have are: 1) after prolonged use I crave a little more variety, 2) when I wake up if I do not IMMEDIATELY turn it off, I can’t move / fall back alseep. 3) The effect is hypnotic — just thinking about it can lure me into a nap.”

But not all humans and sleep improvement CDs are created equal, and not everyone reacts in the same way to this kind of recording.

Some have pointed out there are some “weird” or “spooky” sounds in there (probably triggering off their unsolved fears regarding monsters and demons under the bed… ;-) ) and others have noticed there are some sudden changes in the music and in the sound volume, which “startled” them.

The first one is a totally personal experience – I can not confirm it. The second is true – but usually this is due to users listening to brainwave recordings WAY to loud. Turn down the volume. This stuff should be just above the level where you ask yourself “errr, did I press the play button??”, so when correct volume levels are maintained the “peaks” won’t startle you but just have the desired effect: induce the natural slepping patterns where phases of deep sleep are mixed with times where you sleep less deeply.

Oh, one more thing: some people are afraid that they will need this kind of “music” forever, like a drug. But opposite to chemical drugs brainwave-related sleep enhancers “train” your brain to relax and follow natural sleep rythms. Many people report that after a couple of months they do not need the CDs any more (but often still use them just because they love them).

Verdict: one of the best sleep improvemend CDs out there. Get it. Sleep better.

1 CD, Second Edition: 2-CD-Set:

(please note: there are several versions available. I recommend getting either the “older” 2-CD set – my favorite – or the “Delta Sleep System 2.0″ which is one CD and has had some improvements if you use it with ordinary speakers instead of headphones.)
