Your Brain Training

Musicians Re-tune Your Brain After Too Much of the High Life!

Sat, 26 May 2012 03:44:00 GMT

If you are a professional musician or have been seriously involved in the high life and now find your brain is foggy and your not:

As sharp as you used to be
Mentally and/or physically as energetic
As good at learning and remembering

You may now experience

Performance anxiety
Competitive anxiety
Moodiness
Lower concentration and focus

Your brain has probably been de-tuned and is in need of some serious tuning!

Your brain is like a musical instrument very robust yet delicate on a tuning level and easily de-tuned. Every musician understands that they must regularly tune their instrument for their playing to sound right...otherwise even the best musician will sound terrible playing a poorly tuned instrument.

Your brain is exactly the same and all those years living the high life and/or just the long term pressure of performing and disturbed sleep cycles will absolutely de-tune your brain. As your brain controls everything from;

Emotional states
Thinking
Concentrating
Learning
Remembering
Physical movement

A de-tuned brain can affect every aspect of your:

Performance
General wellbeing

Recent applied research with high achieving students at the prestigious Royal College of Music London demonstrated that neurofeedback substantially improved student's:

stylistic accuracy
interpretive imagination
incidental error count

Their overall improvement resembled a years worth of practice and experience except it only took 5 weeks of neurofeedback training!

Apart from being reported in several scientific journals there was also an article in the Financial Times 2003.

Other research has shown improvements in concentration, memory, creativity, emotional stability and athletic ability. Think about it…everything you experience and do is based on your brain!

Neurofeedback is a safe, natural and non-invasive training process that utilises brainwaves produced by your brain. One or two censors are placed on your head that detect your brainwaves, which are fed back to you via graphics on the computer screen. Learning to control the graphics means you are learning to control your brainwaves. This process enables your marvellous brain to re-tune itself. In science this wonderful ability of your brain to re-tune itself is called brain plasticity or neuroplasticity or brain plasticity.

Neurofeedback can be used to strengthen weaknesses or enhance strengths. We have worked with children and adults with anxiety, learning and concentration problems to professional and Olympic athletes, as well as performing artists for peak performance. Jon Stevens and Deni Hines of Australia use our Brain Trainer.

Neurofeedback is the most effective way to manage recovery and stress for high achievers, which can significantly increase general emotional wellbeing adding up to powerful improvements in quality of life and professional performance. Neurofeedback is a cutting edge tool for performing artists who want to open up their creativity and eliminate any anxiety or depression....No drugs needed!

In fact neurofeedback can eliminate drug dependence or revitalise your brain after the ravishes of too much of the high life and/or long hard work.

So you are using your brain power to train your brain...no hands just brainwaves!

“In my opinion, if any medication had demonstrated such a wide spectrum of efficacy, it would be universally accepted and widely used." Prof. Frank. M. Duffy, MD. Paediatric Neurologist, Boston Children’s Hospital. Neurology editor, EEG and Clinical Neuroscience Journal, Jan. 2000 Research

In reviewing the literature in a recent edition of Current Opinions in Paediatrics, Dr Katie Campbell Daley, who serves on the staff of the Department of Medicine of the Children's Hospital Boston and in the Department of Paediatrics of the Harvard Medical School, wrote: “...parents interested in non-psychopharmacologic treatment can pursue the use of complementary and alternative therapy. The therapy most promising by recent clinical trials appears to be EEG biofeedback." (also known as neurotherapy) Research

WHEN Greg, 12, first began neurotherapy he had all the usual symptoms of ADHD: he was hyperactive, aggressive, had mood swings, poor self esteem and struggled with his behaviour and school work. By the time he finished six months later he was captain of his football team. His confidence had sky rocketed, his school work had improved dramatically and he was much calmer. “It's incredible how my son's life has improved after doing neurotherapy” said his mother.

If you child is exhibiting these behaviours:

Aggression
Moodiness
Tantrums
Not taking responsibility for their behaviour
Blaming others excessively
Being vengeful or spiteful
Manipulative

There could be an issue with the way your child’s brain is functioning in structures like:

Cingulated cortex- which controls attention and gives thoughts an emotional tone. When its out of tune it creates poor focus and short temper or obsessive thoughts.
Prefrontal lobes- controls inhibitions, empathy, sense of responsibility and motivation when it is out of tune there is a lack of all these qualities.
Temporal lobes- controls emotional drives and memory when they are out of tune there can be moodiness, aggression, anxiety, reactiveness, poor listening, poor learning and memory.

A brainwave assessment can identify where the issues are. Then we can target these structures with neurofeedback training and allow your child’s brain to re-tune itself safely and naturally, all in the comfort and convenience of your own home with home based neurofeedback.

Neurofeedback Eliminates Performance Anxiety and Increases Creativity

Sat, 26 May 2012 03:48:00 GMT

Train your brain in the comfort and privacy of your own home...when it suits you. For adults, teenagers and children involved in the performing arts.

Recent applied research with high achieving students at the prestigious Royal College of Music London demonstrated that neurofeedback substantially improved students stylistic accuracy, interpretive imagination and incidental error count. Apart from being reported in several scientific journals there was also an article in the Financial Times 2003.

Every musician understands the importance of a properly tuned instrument. In science this wonderful ability of your brain to re-tune itself is called brain plasticity or neuroplasticity.

You can think of the brain as an orchestra, where the control structures are the conductor and the different parts of the cortex are the instruments. Imagine if the conductor’s timing was only slightly out and the instruments were all just a fraction out of tune, what a difference it would make to the overall sound. Neurofeedback sharpens up the conductor and fine tunes the instruments thus improving the orchestra’s sound. In this case the sound represents your behavioural/emotional reactions and academic, athletic, artistic or musical performance.

Neurofeedback Eliminates Feeling Foggy or Spaced out after Meditation

Tue, 08 May 2012 09:46:00 GMT

Do you find it easy to go into what seem like deep states of meditation but you drift around in fantasy land and possibly they can turn dark very easily.

Do you often come out of a meditation feeling:

Foggy
Spaced out
forgetful
Low energy
A bit depressed or anxious

If you experience any of this it is very likely your brain is chronically under-aroused. Your brain is de-tuned in a way that it is producing too much Theta and/or Alpha and delta brainwaves in your day-to-day awake state.

Because your normal awake brain state is already producing alot of Theta and/or Alpha and Delta then you go into internalised states very easily, so it seems you go into meditation, deep relaxation etc quite quickly and deeply but you lack focus.

Eyes closed meditation could be making your under-aroused brain worse by locking it into this de-tuned state. In traditional yogic practice there is alot of eyes open meditation and breathing before you advance to eyes closed meditation. This helps to tune the brain and prepare you to go into trance. Its not just about being able to fall into deep states but having the focus and control to guide you in those states instead of floating around in fantasy.

Neurofeedback is the most powerful way to identify this under-aroused brain state with brainwave assessment and then re-tune your brain with training by reducing the excessive Theta and/or Alpha and Delta. Neurofeedback uses your brainwaves as feedback so you can control graphics via the software with your brainwaves. When you are producing too much Theta, Alpha or Delta the graphics changes allowing your brain to adjust itself and so retune. This is a very powerful and specific eyes open training focussed on the brainwaves and areas of your brain identified by the brainwave assessment.

Go here and put your details in so we can have a free phone consultation to discuss how we can help you train your way out of a foggy brain and be able to meditate properly and profoundly.

Overcome the Blocks to Learning Meditation with Neurofeedback

Wed, 09 May 2012 01:29:00 GMT

If you want to meditate, believe in it, think its a good idea, understand its benefits, perhaps you have been advised to do so for health or personal development reasons. You have probably tried to learn several... even many times but just can’t get much from it. You either crash into sleep and perhaps feel messy afterwards or you just can’t switch your mind off and let go. So either way you haven’t learned to do it and you aren’t getting any of the benefits you know you can get if only you could do it.

Are you someone who has tried meditation?

Yet despite your best efforts hasn’t been able to do it or has got very little out of it, even though you believe in it, think it’s a great idea and understand its benefits. This can make you feel frustrated, stressed and like a failure. It makes it very hard to justify spending more of your precious time trying to learn to meditate to improve with stress and increase your performance when it adds to your stress!

When you try to meditate you:

Crash into sleep and can feel foggy and/or spaced out afterwards
Just cant switch your mind off and/or relax your body
Gets bored and/or frustrated
Every time you just begin to relax and let go you feel anxious, your losing control or just agitated.

These are all indications of a certain ways your brain is tuned that is blocking you from learning meditation the traditional way. Neurofeedback is such a powerful method it enables you to easily move past these blocks into high quality meditation so you can begin to experience all the benefits you need and want like:

Greater physical and mental energy
Improved focus and concentration
Increased creativity and problem solving ability
Improved interpersonal skills
Improved relationships with spouses, children and work colleagues

Feeling so much more:

Happier
Confident
Optimistic
Calm
Clear headed and switched on

Would you like to let your brain guide you into meditation instead of blocking you?

Well now you can with Neurofeedback. We use cutting edge EEG technology that monitors your brainwaves and tells you when you are producing synchronous Alpha or Theta in real-time. Let your brain tell you how best to meditate!

This is called Alpha Theta training and its a form of neurofeedback (brainwave biofeedback, neurofeedback training, biofeedback meditation) that powerfully mimics meditation practice by giving you real-time feedback by playing a tone when you are producing synchronous alpha and/or theta brainwaves.

“I can now shift mental gears and move easily from a ‘pumped up’ state to a more relaxed ‘idling’ state, still maintaining a crisp sharp focus and productivity, and not use more energy than is necessary. I feel I am making decisions quicker, without any loss of quality. Generally this Alpha Theta training has sharpened my natural abilities.” B. Carr. CEO. Tea Tree Gully City Council Adelaide.

Reverse the Effects of Brain Aging

Thu, 05 Apr 2012 02:20:00 GMT

Instead of getting slower, more tired, losing your memory and generally getting worse as you age, you can reverse these effects and actually get better with age…way better.

Imagine owning a car for 40 years and never getting it tuned! As the motor ran more poorly you would have to go to specialised mechanics that had PhDs in chemistry as they handle very dangerous chemicals that were added to your fuel to keep the motor running. Imagine if these highly qualified mechanics had no idea let alone an understanding that you actually tune the motor.

So you had these extremely dangerous chemicals to your fuel and then you go to a specialised driving instructor or workshops to learn to drive in new ways to deal with the deteriorating performance of your motor.

This sounds really stupid but we do this with our brains. We use them for 40 plus years and do nothing to tune them and just manage our deteriorating performance with:

medications
drugs
herbs
stimulant drinks
therapy
fitness training

We modify our behavior to manage our decreased performance. We just accept this as getting old and joke about it or get frustrated but never think we can tune our brains.

However there has been a revolution in neuroscience research about plasticity which is all about how the adult brain can learn and retune itself.

There is a suite of tools you can use for:

deep relaxation
revitalizing
draining away stress and fatigue
clearing away brain fog

Switching on parts of your brain to improve:

memory
concentration
mood and motivation

Working with these tools you will feel:

10 years younger
more switched on
greater energy both physical and mental
happier
more confident
relaxed

You can train your brain like you train your body. Training your brain makes so much sense because your brain controls your mental function, your emotions, behavior and your body.

Scientist Reveals the Power of Alpha Neurofeedback

Wed, 02 Nov 2011 03:55:00 GMT

Dr James Hardt of the Biocybernaut Institute is one of the many pioneers as a scientist and trainer in the field of Alpha enhancement that have inspired me.

I have had many discussions with Dr Hardt over the years and he has made it clear that from his research and work training people, alpha enhancement can:

Increase creativity
Uplift mood states
Reverse brain aging
Increase mental clarity
Access you to deep spiritual insight
Produce true healing and happiness through deep forgiveness

He says that deep forgiveness happens in alpha states and it is only this deep forgiveness that leads to real healing and happiness. I have had the same experience from 22 years of working with clients! Testimonials

Go here to watch a video on Alpha neurofeedback

I want you to experience the power of deep Alpha states so Im offering a 1 hour introductory session with me (worth $100) over Skype to discuss your needs and how Alpha/theta training can help you achieve your dreams, goals and desires. I have 22 years experience with adults and children for healing/remediation and peak performance.

Alpha theta brain training for high energy people

Sat, 03 Sep 2011 06:39:00 GMT

Do you know you should meditate because you understand its benefits and believe in it, but despite your best efforts you find it difficult or near impossible. Either way you are not getting enough benefit to justify the effort.

You may feel somewhat like a failure or embarrassed with this situation as you are used to achieving and mastering what you set your mind on.

You probably didn’t know there is a physiological reason why you find it difficult.

People who are high achievers like professional and Olympic athletes, entrepreneurs, executives have alot of mental and physical energy, which is great to get the job done and to make things happen.

However when it comes to meditation you just cant:

Switch your mind off
Relax your body
Both the above

This is a natural response for high energy people.

High energy people when put under long term stress become more and more revved up and this can lead to:

Sleep problems
Anxiety
Anger
Fatigue
Tunnel vision
decreased
- concentration/focus
- comprehension

You realise that meditation is good for you which is spot on. But how can you justify the time investment in your busy schedule when you are getting little return?

Traditional meditation is so difficult to learn as there is no feedback, you are left alone inside your own head trying to do something.

Neurofeedback training is a breakthrough cutting edge technology with a proven track record with high flyers including:

Olympic and professional athletes
CEOs and senior managers

US Special Forces Commandoes
High achieving performing artists

Academics

“I can now shift mental gears and move easily from a ‘pumped up’ state to a more relaxed ‘idling’ state, still maintaining a crisp sharp focus and productivity, and not use more energy than is necessary. I feel I am making decisions quicker, without any loss of quality. Generally this training has sharpened my natural abilities.” Brian Carr. CEO. City of Tea Tree Gully. More testimonials

Take all the mystery and guess work out of learning meditation. This technology monitors your brainwaves in real-time with tiny sensors and plays specific tones when you are producing synchronous alpha or theta.

You get objective moment-by-moment feedback that guides your brain to produce more and more synchronous alpha and theta. This means you are sinking into deeper more profound states of meditation, as research has shown that synchronous alpha and theta is the key to the Master’s success. Also research demonstrates that accurate real-time feedback is the key to optimal learning.

Neurofeedback gives you this feedback to supercharging your meditation training.

This means you go deeper into profound states of meditation. Not only are you getting the powerful benefits of deep meditation very quickly you are also learning to meditate very quickly.

Part of the learning and feedback is that the software graphs your sessions so you can see how you went and relate that to how it felt improving your learning. You also get a graph that shows all your sessions over time so you can see how you are progressing.

Neurofeedback is the most effective way to learn to meditate and to get into deep mediation thus justifying the time investment. The deeper you go the more powerful the effects. If you want to:

get immediate benefits from meditation
rapidly develop a high degree of skill
use this to transform your life in the way you know it can

Then neurofeedback is for you.

Do you believe in meditation but find it difficult? Neurofeedback is the your answer.

Thu, 12 May 2011 02:56:00 GMT

Do you consider yourself a spiritual person? You absolutely understand and believe in the power of meditation but you find it difficult and you never have really been able to to do it. Or your meditations aren’t that good and so you don’t get a great deal out of it or you just aren’t going any deeper you seem to be stuck at the same level.

You lead a healthy life, you may even be a healthcare professional or life coach. You may feel that you should really be doing better with meditation and may even feel a little embarrassed by the fact you are not going so well with it.

This maybe not your fault. Your not slack or lack discipline etc you probably don’t realise that if you are an action person then by your very nature its difficult to learn and succeed with meditation in the traditional ways.

Action people have active minds and high energy so its difficult to switch off. To make matters worse you probably thrive under pressure and put alot of pressure on yourself to do more achieve goals which revs you up more. In fact high achievers tend towards becoming more revved up the more stressed they become. This is great in the short term to get things done but in the long term this isn’t good for productivity or mental/emotional health and certainly doesn’t help you to be able to master meditation.

Your probably aware of the long term effects of being revved up too much:

• Sleep problems
• Stress
• Memory/learning
• Anxiety
• Fatigue
• Anger/agitation
• Cardiovascular issues

You probably are aware of the benefits of high quality meditation in the following areas of your life:

• Physical
• Mental
• Emotional
• Spiritual
• Material

"Neurofeedback technology will accelerate the spiritual evolution of humanity." Dr James Hardt PhD, neurofeedback researcher and consultant. Research

Would you like to see into your brain and know exactly when you are producing profound meditation brainwave states like the masters?

Now you can with neurofeedback.

A small brainwave monitor picks up your brainwaves in real-time and tells you when you are producing synchronous alpha or theta with a tone. You lay back and focus on the tone and getting it to come on more often and for longer bursts. You get into the zone with the tone. Your brain knows that the tone means its producing the right brainwaves and you can feel that and focus on that. It turns out that we learn the best with immediate and accurate feedback and thats exactly what happens with neurofeedback and why its such a powerful way to learn and/or deepen meditation.

When the brain is able to watch itself in this way it produces brain level mindfulness....Brainfulness!

The Dalai Lama has said he would be the first to use technology to help him improve his meditation practice. He believes neuroscience will improve Buddhist techniques and has set up research with neuroscientists to accelerate development.

Bill Harris the guy who coined the phrase “Meditate like a Zen Monk” to sell his Holosync brainwave entrainment CDs did alpha neurofeedback and was so impressed he wrote to all his customers and subscribers raving about it and urging them to do it.

“Since doing the alpha theta training I feel more calm and things don’t upset me. I feel more emotionally stable, clear, optimistic and I can handle pressure better. My perceptions have sharpened and I can absorb more information. My memory and thinking are better. It has been excellent operating at a new higher level physically and spiritually. On all fronts I am as good as I have been for a long time. I am experiencing being more proactive.” D. Leach. Training Consultant. Halifax Consulting.

This is perfect for people like you as the learning is so powerful it rapidly overcomes the physiological barrier from being an action person that makes it so hard learning and/or deepening meditation the traditional way.

How Neurofeedback in Sydney can change your brain and your life!

Thu, 07 Apr 2011 00:40:00 GMT

Your brain is like an orchestra with many different groups of instruments that ebb and flow to produce the music. Different parts of the brain specialise in certain tasks and connect and disconnect in real time as you think, learn and act. If these connections are out of tune you experience problems. Neurofeedback in Sydney can eliminate these problems.

“Dear Jonathan Just a small token of my (our) appreciation for all you’ve done for Lilly (all of us). I truly don’t feel you have any concept the impact of your care has had for us. It has been a lifeline when we were drowning. To reach that lifeline and be pulled to shore has been so incredible! I will never be able to repay you for your work, understanding and warm dealings and will remain indebted. Thank you so much!” Mrs E. Crowe Testimonials

This is a scientifically proven process that uses one or two tiny sensors on your head that pick up brainwaves in real time and sends them to the computer where they are instantly analysed by the software and used to control brain games or the size of a DVD screen. So you are using your brain power to train your brain...no hands just brainwaves!

Your brain is like an orchestra with many different groups of instruments that ebb and flow to produce the music. Different parts of the brain specialise in certain tasks and connect and disconnect in real time as you:

• Think
• Feel
• Focus
• Remember
• Comprehend
• Learn
• move about

For example the Cingulate Cortex gives thoughts and experiences an emotional tone and enables you to:

• experience appropriate emotions
• select what is important to focus on
• stay focussed without being distracted.

When it is out of tune you become:

• easily distracted
• cant focus
• cant stay on task
• can become overwhelmed with a lot of things going on around you
• can get stuck in going over and over situations
• low tolerance to frustration
• cant handle change
• obsessiveness
• have a short fuse.

Children and adults with:

• ADHD
• ADD
• Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD)
• Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
• Aggression and explosive anger

All have issues with the Cingulate functioning, which like any structure in the brain can be exercised directly to remediate these issues.

These children often don’t respond to normal conditioning and behavioural learning they don’t respond to consequences and rewards and so don’t seem to learn very well from their mistakes and will repeat the same behaviours over and over again.

Neurofeedback in Sydney fixes brainwave problems that cause ADHD

Thu, 07 Apr 2011 00:20:00 GMT

You have probably heard that your brain produces electrical impulses in brain cells (neurons) and these impulses are measured as brainwaves. If there are too much or too less of any brainwave type it causes all the problems that we know of, like ADHD, anxiety, mood disorders, etc. Neurofeedback can re-balance your brainwaves and eliminate your problems.

Imagine being able to exercise you or your child out of:

You have probably heard that your brain produces electrical impulses in brain cells (neurons) and these impulses are measured as brainwaves. All of the electrical impulses of the neurons produce a range of brainwaves, divided up into different frequencies called (Delta .5-4Hz, Theta 4-8Hz, Alpha 8-12Hz, SMR 12-15Hz, Low beta 15-22Hz and Hi Beta 22-38Hz).

All the brainwaves are present at any given time but its the relationship between them that makes all the difference. In certain combinations they produce different states and/or effects. If there are too much or too less of any brainwave type it causes all the problems that we know of, like ADHD, anxiety, mood disorders etc.

Hi-Beta a brainwave range from 22 to 38Hz is highly arousing. If there is too much Hi-Beta in the long term it drives the metabolism hard, it stresses the adrenals and thyroid and is associated with:

• stress
• PMT
• irritable bowel
• heart palpitations
• muscle tension
• anxiety
• anger
• panic
• agitation
• busy mind
• sleep disturbances
• restless leg
• low tolerance to frustration

Your brain is the most complex structure in the universe. An incredible instrument that is the vehicle of consciousness and mind. It generates thoughts, emotions and physical movement and controls every aspect of the body. Everything you have ever learnt and experienced was managed by your brain. Although quite robust it is quite sensitive to being de-tuned. Damage or de-tune you brain and it will cause alot of problems and stress. Neurofeedback allows your brain to re-tune itself.

Neurofeedback is a powerful way to train you and/or your child’s brain that is fun, easy, non-invasive, safe natural and has no adverse side effects. It is especially easy for children as they can play computer games or watch DVDs that are controlled by their brainwaves!

“In my opinion, if any medication had demonstrated such a wide spectrum of efficacy, it would be universally accepted and widely used." Prof. Frank. M. Duffy, MD. Paediatric Neurologist, Boston Children’s Hospital. Neurology editor, EEG and Clinical Neuroscience Journal, Jan. 2000 Research

In reviewing the literature in a recent edition of Current Opinions in Paediatrics, Dr Katie Campbell Daley, who serves on the staff of the Department of Medicine of the Children's Hospital Boston and in the Department of Paediatrics of the Harvard Medical School, wrote: “...parents interested in non-psychopharmacologic treatment can pursue the use of complementary and alternative therapy. The therapy most promising by recent clinical trials appears to be EEG biofeedback." Research

Initially a comprehensive brainwave analyses (brain map) is done to see how the brain is tuned, based on this the training exercises different parts of the brain so they re-tune themselves. This is done using one or two tiny sensors on the head that record brainwaves and send them to the computer wirelessly where the software analyses them and uses them to control brain games or the size of a DVD screen.

If your brain produces too much or too less of certain brainwaves the screen will shrink a bit. Your brain wants to keep the screen big so it adjusts its brainwaves to make that happen. This adjusting exercises the brain and gets it to change its tuning as measured by brainwaves.

Neurofeedback is a scientific field that goes back to the late 60s with a rich clinical and research history. There has been many positive studies showing neurofeedback remediates many issues. Recently MRI scans showed conclusive evidence of changes (neuro placticity) in people’s brains who did neurofeedback. Yet it is relatively unknown in mainstream medicine, psychology and alternate healing.

“After suffering regular stress headaches and migraines and feeling chronically fatigued, I now feel in control, calm, relaxed, patient. I feel more optimistic and energetic. I am working less hours, achieving more and I am stress and migraine free.” Mr P Irving. Testimonials

ADHD, ADD, learning , behaviour and mood problems can be identified with brain maps.

This is a scientifically proven process that uses one or two tiny sensors on your head that pick up brainwaves in real time and sends them to the computer where they are instantly analysed by the software and used to control brain games or the size of a DVD screen. So you are using your brain power to train your brain...no hands just brainwaves!

Problems like those listed above can be identified with brain maps. ADD is where the brain is asleep or underaroused. There are different types of brainwaves (Delta, Theta, Alpha, Beta) which have different functions. There is too much Alpha and/or Theta which creates:

• spaciness
• day dreaming
• cant focus
• cant stay on task

In the worst situations there is poor:

• Comprehension
• short term memory
• logic

Often there is:
• physical impulsiveness
• poor coordination/clumsiness
• lack of motivation
• immature behaviour

If there is also too much Delta then they usually have varying degrees of developmental delay.

ADHD has characteristics of ADD usually the middle and back of the brain is underaroused but the frontal lobes have too much Hi-beta. Children/adults with bad behaviour or mood problems usually have too much Hi-beta in the Temporal and Prefrontal lobes so these areas are over aroused…too hyperactive.
