Brainwave entrainment (BWE) refers to the use of external stimuli to produce a frequency following response of brainwaves to match the frequency of the external stimuli. The current paper is a brief review and aims to focus on BWE process as a therapeutic approach to vitalize cognitive functioning along with well-being of individuals. Also, it aims to observe the prospect of BWE as an intervention in India. Thirty studies met the criteria and were critically analyzed on the basis of demographic and clinical variables. Findings suggest a shift from the physiological to psychological implications of BWE. Review suggests that there is a dearth of longitudinal studies and with children. However, some studies have highlighted improvement in overall functioning after BWE sessions. The paper suggests that there is a need to conduct studies on clinical and child population to apply BWE as an intervention to promote overall well-being in children. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
