Training the Mind: Neurofeedback
Neurofeedback training for the brain is similar to physical training for the body. A significant portion of our suffering comes from pervasive recurring thoughts and feelings in which our minds can become 'stuck' in the subconsious. Neurofeedback prompts the brain to draw from it’s existing resources and pull itself out of these mental ‘ruts’. The result can create a more open and positive mindset in which confidence grows, obstacles are more manageable and problems more resolvable. Sensors are placed on the head which then read and divide the brainwaves we want to increase (good focus and attention) and the brainwaves we want to decrease (poor focus, anxiety or agitation). Signals are sent to us via graphic displays and auditory prompts when the software detects a negative tremor in your brain wave pattern which encourage a change in mental state and challenge the brain to reset and thus function more effectively. The audible signal is just a micro second pause in the music you will be listening to sounding much like static. This pause is highly significant to the brain and allows a “reorienting” and “relaxation” response to take place. By repeating this many times, the brain ‘learns’, becomes more resilient and more flexible.

FAQ
How many sessions are needed to feel the effects?
Each individual is different. Some people will feel an immediate effect, while others make take 3 - 4 sessions. It is recommended that a minimum of 10 sessions be completed for a baseline of training. Are there any side effects?
No. Think of it as a deep dive meditation. |
How long will each session take?
Each session lasts 33 minutes. We do ask that a full 45 minutes be allocated to allow for hook up and removal of the sensors. |
NEUROPTIMAL®
NeurOptimal® is an advanced neuro-technology that offers training to the brain, enabling it to function at its best. It’s mathematically designed to communicate directly with your central nervous system and has been called “the most effective bio-hack on this planet”. Hype aside however, NeurOptimal® does have a long and venerable history with well over THREE MILLION HOURS of safe and effective usage, and it is celebrating its seventeenth year this year!
NeurOptimal® was developed by Clinical Psychologists Drs. Valdeane and Susan Brown, Founders of Zengar Institute Inc. It utilizes an original Dynamical Neurofeedback® algorithm developed by the Drs. Brown, which is exclusive to NeurOptimal®. This innovative form of neurofeedback is not a medical treatment, but instead is a TRAINING for the brain. It does not require diagnosis, but rather it dances micro-second by micro-second with your brain offering it the information it needs to RE-ORGANIZE ITSELF. And when your brain does that, a whole lot of complaints drop away. You feel calmer, clearer, happier and able to function better in your life. Copyright Zengar® Institute Inc. All rights reserved |
