In the current issue of GQ, there is an article about neurofeedback. Which, according to wikipedia, is also called neurotherapy, neurobiofeedback or EEG biofeedback (EEGBF) and is a therapy technique that presents the user with realtime feedback on brainwave activity, as measured by sensors on the scalp, typically in the form of a video display, sound or vibration. It allows you to tap into the depths of your brain and control it. One sits motionless in front a TV with a bunch of sensors hooked up to the scalp and tries to get the images on the screen to respond according to brainwaves. Training your brain. If you can pinpoint stresses in life or areas that need improvement, measures can be taken to counteract the feeling and you can actually train the brain's reaction. With time, memory, reaction time, and stress can be improved simply by training your brain. This is amazing to me and probably totally worth the exorbitant amount of money one has to spend to get this training. There are actually quite a few websites that come up when googling the term. I am merely a simpleton who can't fully comprehend the science/technology, so searches can be done. Actually being able to completely control one's own mind? That is science leaping forward.12 October 2008
