Brain balance and harmony is the first step to well being and optimal performance in school, on the playing field and at work. When the brain is in balance and harmony, the body is strong and healthy. When the brain is out of balance disease and mental distress are more likely. The condition of balance and harmony for the brain is known as homeostasis. It is a “level playing field” for your brain to respond to thinking, feeling, and healing your body in an optimized state. Your brain acts as the hub of the wheel, your nervous system the spokes and your body the rim. When the hub is out of balance everything else suffers.

Brain State Conditioning™ is an individually tailored process of balancing and harmonizing brain waves. Brain function is manifested in electromagnetic energy which can be captured by detecting it – or listening to it – without being invasive. Brain energy can be detected from the outer scalp at specific points on the head using Intellectrodes™. Ultimately, this process produces personalized exercises to balance and optimize your brain. The Brain State Conditioning process collects brain waves via computers which interpret brain wave information and translate it into optimized patterns in the form of sound which is played through stereo headphones. An important aspect of brain training involves the assessment phase which is also called brain mapping. A map of your brain indicates information about your memory, your problem solving capability, your mood and energy and even the status of your immune system. So, the process begins with an assessment and then balancing protocols are selected to support your brain’s limitless capability.

Brain State Conditioning™ is intended to balance and harmonize brain waves, and is not intended to treat, cure, heal or diagnose any disease, metal illness, or symptoms. If currently under care of a primary care physician, therapist, or other mental health professional, you are encouraged to consult with them prior to beginning sessions at Riverlight Brain Training Center.

Out of balance states for which Brain State Conditioning TM has proven effective include ADD and ADHD, autism, Alzheimer’s, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, fibromyalgia, depression, and obsessive compulsive disorder. Brain Training can offer significant relief for PTSD, addictions (substance abuse, gambling).

Brain training benefits all ages. Last week I offered my eighty nine year old father training sessions to help him prepare for an uncomfortable, potentially debilitating surgical procedure. After two short sessions, he got through his surgery with ease and his recovery has been complication free. He has felt no post operative pain. When he had the same procedure last fall he had to be hospitalized for several days and his recovery was prolonged. An added benefit was that after his first training session the tremors in his hands that have persisted for thirty years (after a severe stroke) disappeared. His eighty nine year old brain trained easily and quickly and then helped his body respond positively to surgery.

Life experiences that can have a negative impact on brain wave balance and harmony are physical injury such as whiplash, birth and childhood traumas (both emotional and physical) substance abuse, illness and strokes. The Brain State Technology office in Scottsdale, AZ has recently conducted a successful program for injured veterans who have returned from combat in Afghanistan and Iraq. Brain Training offers hope and recovery to many veterans who struggle with injuries and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Jane Percy and her colleague Shaun English completed the Brain Training course in Scottsdale, AZ and are licensed and certified to provide training sessions in Stonington.
