When the peak of alpha is below 10 Hz (as we see in the TLC), your semantic memory suffers, working memory suffers, you may become more depressed/low energy, you may not sleep as well and your ability to learn (related to working memory) will tend to deteriorate.  One way of looking at this is to look at the relationship between 8-10 Hz alpha and 10-12 Hz alpha.  It the ratio of high alpha to low alpha is 1 or a bit higher, that's probably good.  If it's below 1.0, then you'll probably experience some of the above problems (also called age-related cognitive decline because it happens to many of us after we pass 50 or so).
