Most of us live in a constant loop of to-do lists, pings, and performance pressure. This non-stop mental chatter keeps your brain in high-frequency beta mode great for survival, but not for clarity, creativity, or peace.

But there's a better way.
When your brain enters Alpha wave mode (8–12 Hz), you experience:
Effortless calm
Focused awareness
Mental clarity
A deep, non-reactive state of observation
It’s not just a state of relaxation. It’s a superpower hidden in your nervous system.
🧘♂️ How Do You Access Alpha Waves Naturally?
At Shrimath, we integrate two time-tested Yogic practices to help people shift into this powerful brain state:
1️⃣ Antar Mouna (Inner Silence)
A practice that enables is to cultivate the witness attitude - training your mind to observe without judging. It builds resilience, clarity, and emotional balance.
2️⃣ Yoga Nidra (Yogic Sleep)
A guided practice that helps you to experience a state of relaxation and conscious rest. It restores the nervous system, improves focus, and promotes deep healing from within.
The higher levels of this practice facilitate desire manifestation, thereby easing our journey towards self discovery.
Together, these practices help you rewire your stress response—not by escaping life, but by observing and acing it differently.
⚡ Don’t Wait—Try This 3-Minute Practice Now
If you’ve got 3 to 5 minutes, try this quick method inspired by Antar Mouna and notice the shift:
✅ Sit with a straight spine, relaxed shoulders, and soft chest
✅ Place your hands in Chin Mudra on your thighs
✅ Close your eyes gently and wear a smile 😊
✅ Listen to the sounds around you—don’t react, just observe
✅ If thoughts arise, don’t resist or judge—gently return to listening
✅ Let go of guilt or control
✅ Just be... and breathe
You’re not doing it wrong. You’re simply witnessing. That alone brings calm.
⏳ Got More Time? Explore Yoga Nidra
Give yourself 15 minutes of guided Yoga Nidra (ideally taught by a trained teacher or audio guidance). You’ll likely feel:
More rested than after a nap
Mentally sharper
Emotionally balanced
Energetically light
And yes, your brain will naturally shift into Alpha.
💡 Why This Matters More Than Ever
Stress is not going away. But your reaction to it can change.
Through Alpha practices like Antar Mouna and Yoga Nidra, you create an internal buffer a space between stimulus and response. That’s where growth lives.
And if you're a coach, professional, educator, or simply someone looking for clarity this practice could change your game.
The beauty of these practices is that you carry the tool within you no app, no gadget, no subscription.
At Shrimath, we don’t just teach Yoga and it’s allied practices. We help people experience transformation through ancient methods rooted in science, silence, and self-awareness.
