Hi Sue,

The deepsleep is really intended to help you fall asleep easier. But some people who use these kind of CD's even when not for sleep report that they feel more refreshed with a little less sleep.

You can use the binaurals when doing other tasks but if doing very alert tasks, that will work against the frequencies trying to bring them down lower.

However, depending on the person, some people can do tasks while being in a deeper state...more in an observation mode but still performing tasks. I used to use these kind of tracks while surfing the web every day. I'd listen to them the first time around and would chill with them. Then I'd put it on repeat and would have headphones on and would just listen to them over and over while surfing.
