What Are Binaural Beats?

Binaural beats occur when you listen to two slightly different frequencies in each ear (for example, 210 Hz in the left ear and 200 Hz in the right ear).
Your brain perceives the difference (10 Hz in this case) as a rhythmic "beat," and it tends to entrain to that frequency.
