If you've written an article or have an idea for an article, or if you've written a book that can be excerpted, we're interested in publishing you. Drop me a line. There's a new radio show covering bio/neurofeedback, Brain, applied psychophysiology and related topics. Shows will be broadcast Sundays, 9-10 PM EST on 1360 AM, reaching Metro philly and S.

Carol Schneider talks in depth about Mild Traumatic Brain Injury, particularly in the military. Jay Gunkelman talks about his work with the military, how he's learned the new language needed to get paid for neurofeedback. And he talks about using EEG and neurofeedback among other tools to assess and help wake up coma patients with great success. Click on the link above to access the recording of the show.

By learning from advances in both cognitive neuroscience and brain imaging about the brain, neurofeedback has learned to better target different areas of the brain.

Pushing neurofeedback for epilepsy into the mainstream By Celeste DeBease, PhD
Parapower stands for the amazing power that accompanies the deliberate activation of the parasympathetic nervous system. To understand it, I'll provide you with the basics of the human nervous system. Then, I'm going to suggest something fairly radical; that the only way to become more spiritual is through activation of this system.
Head Chaise: Couching One's Thoughts into a Brain Wave Sofa [Slide Show]
what happens when you take the plot of a few seconds of alpha brain waves and turn it into a sofa? A slide show shows the process.

advocates' uses of brain research, and their reliance on 'hard' science, raise some potentially troubling questions about the potential impact of this science on ideas about human potential.

Beyond the amelioration or healing of an immune system disorder, biofeedback-assisted psychophysiologic therapy provides the experiential knowledge of self-regulation, self-mastery, and voluntary control, and an improved and empowered self image. This has far-reaching consequences, for the image that we hold of ourselves influences everything that we are and everything we do.

This study examines intentional increase of blood perfusion in a chosen brain area when the subject is suitably informed of the rCBF of that brain region.

To co-create new social realities, we have to work with two distinct fundamental forces that are in tension: power and love. This assertion requires an explanation because the words power and love are defined by so many different people in so many different ways.Power and love are difficult to work with because each of them has two sides. Both power and love have a generative side and a degenerative side

Neurofeedback is an emerging neuroscience-based clinical application, and understanding the underlying principles of neurofeedback allows the therapist to provide referrals or treatment, and provides clients with a framework for understanding the process. The brain's electrical patterns are a form of behavior, modifiable through "operant conditioning,"...

Priming is a phenomenon where being exposed to a certain stimuli makes a particular response to a second stimuli more likely to happen. For example, smelling the freshly baked bread when you walk into a store makes you more likely to buy some bread.

The core behavioral treatment of urinary incontinence is pelvic muscle re-education. Biofeedback "takes the guesswork out of pelvic muscle training" (reference NIDDK) because it enables the patient to improve pelvic muscle function through muscle awareness, which, when combined with a home exercise program, leads to increased muscle strength and improved coordination.

Modern neurofeedback therapy is compared with the experience and goals of the traditional ayahuasca ceremony. A program of conducting neurofeedback training in conjunction with the ayahuasca ceremony is described. It's argued that such a combination enhances the goals of each program by providing better preparation and post-training support.

Joseph Campbell described a mythic pattern that any hero, any person going through a process of growth and increased personal awareness experiences. This model works very well for biofeedback practitioners, describing the stages, steps, experiences, problems, opportunities, challenges and rewards you can expect to encounter on your path to becoming a master of the world of biofeedback.
By Michael Cohen
Can a parent or individual do training on his own with limited or no neurofeedback training? These questions arise often. Wouldn't it be more convenient to do training at home, and less costly? Can't you do more training per week and make progress faster? The clinician/technician just pushes some buttons - couldn't I do that just as easily myself at home? If it were only so simple.
