Guest guest Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Tony, Do you easily get cold hands/ feet?. If that’s the case, try hand warming techniques. MIght improve your condition. You can use a thermometer to check finger temperature. You can also check hand temperature by placing palm of hand against the side of your face and notice if your hand is colder than your cheek. Personally I like hand and cheek to feel as if they melt together. It’s a sign of that I’m calm and collected. Hand warming is done easily with good breathing excersises. http://www.aapb.org/files/public/Temperature.pdf Good luck! Jim Fra: braintrainer [mailto:braintrainer ] På vegne av karyn.tony@...

In other words your training the difference between the two sites, correct? Thanks, PS: I love that arousal scale you constructed. Bruce ----- Original Message ----- From: R.

Welcome I strongly recommend you the EEG Pendant because I've been using it since 2006 with excellent results. If you are able to upgrade to the A3, go for it! Is more versatile than the Pendant. The " most read " book is Demo's Starting with Neurofeedback. I also recommend you to do a TLC assessment for yourself before start your training so you may be sure where and what to do on your brain. Do the Subjective and the objective. Also consider the Arousal Scale to determine your ANS Rhythm or best frequency to train at T3-T4. With this specific protocol at the best rewarding frequency for your brain you may find extraordinary response for your migraines. Hope these helps.

I live in Melbourne, Australia and I'm a complete novice to NFB. In fact I haven't even bought the equiptment yet - I'll be ordering that soon. I suffer bad migrains and have become very interested in NFB to help me 'stave' them off. I'm also a violinist and teacher and would like to improve my thinking processes such concentration and staying in 'the zone' during performance if possible. I read an interesting piece of research about NFB and music performance - http://www.aapb. org/i4a/pages/ index.cfm? pageid=3609 I expect this will be a long process but that's ok. I have a steep learning curve ahead of me. As a novice, what book would you recommend for me to read? Which device would you suggest I purchase - the pendant or A3? What is the best initial pathway I should begin with on my NFB journey? Regards, Bob Never miss a thing. Make Yahoo your homepage. No virus found in this incoming message.
