Arden says:
"I designed The
Brain Tape to help create more efficient
use of our mental processes, for example,
the ability to learn and to exercise creative
thought. This original music promotes expansion
of conciousness and mental clarity. The mind
is our greatest tool for creating a successful
life and its smooth functioning is essential.
These tracks can be used by all ages." |

Sit
or lie with headphones. Materials
required: several large pieces of
blank paper and a drawing implement
of some kind pencil, crayon, pen,
felt tip, paint brush and paints
etc.
When you start the music take a
few moments and breathe deeply and
slowly. Allow your diaphragm to
relax so that the air can enter
more easily into the abdomen first,
then expand the sides of your body,
your entire back and your chest.
Imagine that with both hands together
you are drawing a circle first clockwise,
then counter-clockwise. Visualize
these movements as clearly as you
can. Next, draw what you visualized,
first at a natural speed for you,
then as fast and as slowly as you
can. Try it also with your eyes
closed. Draw small, medium and then
large circles. Try other geometric
forms or shapes e.g. triangles,
hexagons, squares etc.
Effect:
promotes co-ordination of
both hands so that they function
as one unit.
Required:
a long, tapered white candle. Place
the candle in a holder of some kind
so that the candle can be held at
arm's length in front of you with
the top of the candle a few inches
below eye level. Light the candle
and start the music.
Practice the breathing technique
as described in exercise 1 for this
tape, inhaling through your nose.
After a few breaths, instead of
exhaling straight away, hold your
breath for 5 slow counts and exhale
gently through your nose. Repeat
3-4 times. Then open your eyes and
gaze at the flame for as long as
you can. If you must break contact
with staring into the flame, do
so as consciously as possible. Rest
your eyes for as long as necessary
and then return to gaze at the flame.
Variation:
hold one of your thumbs at eye level
between the candle and your eye.
Focus on it until you see the candle
as a double image, one on either
side of your thumb. Hold the double
image as long as possible. You can
also take your thumb away, still
maintaining the double image. If
you lose it, bring your thumb back
and focus on it again until you
see the double image of the candle.
Then take your thumb away again.
Do this as often as necessary to
develop this kind of focus.
Next, reverse the process and focus
on the candle until you see your
thumb as a double image. Maintain
that as long as possible. When you
have the double image of the thumb
clearly, you can take the candle
away with your other hand.
Effect:
promotes hand and eye co-ordination.
Helps to develop poise and self-confidence.
