Potential challenges?

This looks complicatedWhat’s important?What’s relevant?

Delta• 0-4Hz

Theta• 4-8Hz

The Neuroscience


Delta• 30 seconds

Gamma• Every second

What it feels like


Delta• Every 30s

Theta• Every 20s

Alpha• Every 10s

Beta• Every 2s

Gamma• Every second

Stand up/ sit down!


Delta• Sleep on it

Theta• Dream about it

Alpha• Visualisation/ restful review

Beta• Physical/ Mental/ Exercises/ Challenges/ Activity

Gamma• Light bulb moments/ deep meditation

Harness them…


Think:How can I harness

brainwaves more effectively?

Share:What I will do to

harness brainwaves more effectively?


Suggest learners ‘sleep on it’

Time limit sessionsBuild in visualisations

Encourage learners to walk away and return

Use stories

What stimulates lightbulb

moments?


“This one day workshop with Stellar Learning had far greater impact than the five days of training that we’d done before. The return on investment has been huge.” Dave Spacey, Volvo Trucks
