How does one learn from the feedback of the brainwaves?
Neurofeedback utilizes the principles of operant conditioning. One of my former clients said it is “like playing Nintendo with your brain”. To set the stage for this to happen, I set a threshold, which determines how much you have to produce of a certain frequency before you get a tone. This frequency is often Beta, especially in the case of attention deficit disorder. In addition I set another threshold for the undesired frequency or frequencies, below which you need to stay in order to get the tone which means you are succeeding. Visually you see graphics, which change in response to your brainwave performance. Examples of graphics are spaceships, which fly faster when you produce more of a given frequency, with the competing spaceships signifying the undesired frequencies. Another example is a puzzle, which fills in as you proceed, or a bobsled or boat ride that moves faster the better you do in producing the desired frequencies. Visual or auditory feedback is stressed depending on
