daydreaming during neurofeedback sessions...

[Guest guest]

greetings:

i've been home-training for a while now with a NIR HEG system.

although i've experienced some success with HEG, i've run into

problems with excessive daydreaming during HEG sessions. To clarify,

i quickly get bored with the repetition of Bioexplorer designs and

find myself daydreaming for much of the HEG session. since

daydreaming and lack of focus have been my primary ADHD issues since

childhood, this seems counter-productive...

what's interesting, is that i tend to do better (achieve higher

segment HEG gain %)while daydreaming than when i'm focused on the BE

design, which seems to reinforce my undesired daydreaming habit.

i've tried switching up the designs for variety, and have tried

designs which are focused on segment attention index %--neither

strategies have helped much.

one more note: i've experienced this same " bored into daydreaming "

problem with EEG neurofeedback, with both home-based EEG training

and training with a professional in an office environment.

ideas or suggestions appreciated.

It's interesting that you feel you do better while daydreaming.

My son calls HEG " the relaxing brain training. " Once he fell asleep

early in a short segment while training and I let him go on for a

while and his HEG level increased the whole time, better than ever!

I wonder if it's a brain style thing.
