The practice
The Sitting
The twelve stones in series. Each one is shown at the size you can actually rest your eyes on while its two Solfeggio frequencies sound over the constant 7 Hz beat, and the breath the step asks for is paced beside it. Nothing here is new — it is the four things the canon already specifies for each step, finally in one place at one time.
Use headphones, and keep the volume gentle — the beat is made by giving each ear a different tone, so speakers cannot produce it. And before you begin: if you live with a serious medical or psychological condition — epilepsy or a seizure disorder in particular, where rhythmic sound and light can be a trigger — speak to a professional first. This practice is not a treatment, and nothing here replaces care. Stop if it disturbs rather than settles you.

Lime Yellow Square: Solar Consciousness
396 + 174 Hz · 7 Hz binaural · Manipura (solar plexus)
Kindle the solar fire — a bright, active breath at the navel, the seat of will and digestion.
Steps 4–12 are held for practitioners of the path. The whole progression opens the remaining 9 stones and the full sitting.

Best with headphones, and with the screen where you can see it.
What you are hearing
Each step carries its own pair of Solfeggio frequencies, and beneath every one of them the same 7 Hz beat holds steady — a container that does not change while the carriers do. The beat is not played; it is produced in the listening, by giving each ear one tone seven cycles apart, which is why headphones matter and why only one step can sound at a time.
