Australia has no official religion. Section 116 of the Constitution of Australia states: "The Commonwealth shall not make any law for establishing any religion, or for imposing any religious observance, or for prohibiting the free exercise of any religion, and no religious test shall be required as a qualification for any office or public trust under the Commonwealth."

The Christian festivals of Easter and Christmas are public holidays.[3]

Binaural Beats Freak The Brain Wave Audio Expert You are here:  Home   /   Binaural Beats   /  10 Huge Benefits of Listening to Theta Binaural Beats 10 Huge Benefits of Listening to Theta Binaural Beats Theta binaural beats are essentially sound waves with a frequency that corresponds to the Theta brain state. The frequency range is 4-8 hertz (Hz) and is sometimes cited as 4-7 hertz. These frequencies (binaural beats) are embedded underneath meditation-style music or nature/ambient sounds, and when you listen along, your brain is encouraged to follow and produce more theta brainwaves. This is made possible through a process called “frequency following response.” I cover exactly how this process works  here . But read that later. Let's continue for now. Generally, we associate theta with deep relaxation, meditation, creativity, and heightened intuition. Theta waves also play a role in the early stages of sleep. As detailed in  this post , there are nume...
