BAUD (Bioacustical Unit Device)
It is a handheld biofeedback device utilized as part of therapies in the field of neuroscience. Developed by Dr. G. Frank Lawlis, Ph.D, it helps you "tune into" your individual stress source by adjusting frequency dials, and then listen to frequency-separated sonic waves. It induces a third frequency, a "binaural beat," deep in your brain. It helps create a mental state facilitating the release of stress. It then helps you reshape reactive patterns of thought, feeling and action, and to quiet those negative urges.
