      Stephen Larsen  Introduction to the Low Energy Neurofeedback System (LENS) 
      
      
      Jan 16-18 The LENS , or 
    Low Energy Neurofeedback System, uses a very low power 
    electromagnetic field, like the ones that surround digital watches and wires 
    in the wall, to carry feedback to the person receiving it. The feedback 
    travels down the same wires carrying the brain waves to the amplifier and 
    computer. Although the feedback signal is weak, it produces a measurable 
    change in the brainwaves without conscious effort from the individual 
    receiving the feedback. The LENS software allows the EEG signals that are 
    recorded at the scalp to control the feedback. Neurofeedback uses a feedback 
    frequency that is different from, but correlates with, the dominant 
    brainwave frequency. When exposed to this feedback frequency, the EEG 
    amplitude distribution changes in power. Most of the time the brain waves 
    reduce in power; but at times they also increase in power. In either case 
    the result is a changed brainwave state, and much greater ability for the 
    brain to regulate itself. Book 
      is  The Healing Power of Neurofeedback: The Revolutionary LENS 
      Technique for Restoring Optimal Brain Function, written by Steve Larsen,

    | Paul Swingle Neurotherapy 
    as Primary Care  Jan 17-18 
    Neurotherapy is rapidly evolving 
            into a primary care option for many disorders. Problems with mood, 
            anxiety, sleep quality, learning, cognitive processing, pain, 
            addictions, anger management, and age related memory are all 
            amenable to rapid assessment and treatment. Treatment options other than neurofeedback have been developed to markedly accelerate 
            neurotherapy. These complementary techniques markedly facilitate 
            neurotherapy as a viable primary care alternative to dangerous and 
            often ineffective pharmaceuticals.
 The workshop starts with the precise assessment procedures that 
            determine treatment strategies. The combinations of treatment 
            options including neurofeedback, braindriving, AVS, CES, energy 
            psychology methods, craniosacral manipulations, harmonic sounds, 
            electrostimulation, EMF stimulation and behavior therapies 
            appropriate for a wide range of disorders are presented in detail so 
            practitioners can immediately apply these efficient techniques. 
            Conditions that require full QEEG and data base procedures will be 
            identified as will conditions in which the more aggressive 
            treatments are contraindicated.
