Meditation has been shown to physically change the structures of the brain to create a new and improved brain over time.

Most busy corporate types I know who do meditation to reap its benefits usually do it for 20-30 minutes a day. It's far more prudent to adopt a 20 minute practice which will be done consistently over 6 months than trying to force a 1 hour practice which one can easily lose motivation or interest in.

Should also be noted that just passively playing the recording whilst not doing much else probably won't yield very much in the long run.

I already meditate on my own for 20-30 minutes a day, but bought these to help me access a deeper, more intense meditation. But having to run through the entire program in one long sitting sounds like a huge chore, and later on, when I'm fully employed again, sounds like it will just be impossible. The instructions clearly state that the track is guided--the first 10 minutes wind you down, then you spend 30 minutes in the state itself, then the next 10 minutes regulate you, and the final 10 minutes "awaken" you. It seems like if I woke up and simply ran the track for only 20-30 minutes, I would be stuck in that brainwave state throughout the rest of the day.
