That is a specific brain wave state: alpha. I've also heard theta is a good for the IMing state. This is because asking or praying for something is done in a non-ordinary state of consciousness. That really, if one can be one with all and move that consciousness into a desire it manifests, because that consciousness is oneness where everything possible exists. so it's said.

I don't know how ALG does it. But most usually sit or lie down, with closed eyes and no distractions and relax the body with auto suggestion and focus on breathing. Like scan each body part and say something like, my feet are so relaxed and with each breath they relax more and more. Once the body is totally relaxed you are probably in alpha or deeper.
