Brain exercises

Posted by Dinah on March 4, 2007, at 12:07:52

I've gotten pretty good at manipulating my brain. I've practiced and gotten pretty good at putting myself to sleep, and relaxing myself. I've played around a bit with deliberately forgetting.

But now I'm wondering if I can do it in the opposite direction. I'm wondering if, when I'm groggy, I can put myself in a more alert and focused condition by concentrating on changing my brain state.

The trouble is that I'm not sure what to aim for. I wish we had neurofeedback in our area, but the closest seems six hours away, and most seem much further away than that. I see that a few will do it on a long distance basis, as long as you also are willing to come in for initial and occasional sessions. I'm thinking it might be worth it.

Since I'm already reasonably good at this (and did well at plain old biofeedback - drat biofeedback guy), do you think it might be a good thing to try?
