Two-Person Synchrony Training This is not something done very often, but training two people together to increase their brainwave synchrony can be done. Keep in mind, though, that there’s a big difference between doing alpha training or alpha theta training with two people and doing synchrony training. You’ll need something that allows you to send […]
Alpha Training If someone doesn’t produce alpha, train up 9-13 Hz–and train alpha coherence–in the parietals. All this, of course, assumes that you’ve already checked for other issues related to fast wave blocking and worked on those, since alpha and beta are antagonists–they block each other.
For most people, Alpha Theta Training is recommended every five sessions. It is a protocol designed to produce a pathway from the subconscious to the conscious, and trainers use it for everything from addictions to peak performance. It is especially used to “lay in” training achieved in the previous four sessions. Why Do Alpha Theta […]
What is a Bipolar Protocol Any time you train in a channel, you are training the difference between the active and reference electrode signals. The fact is that you are training the pyramidal neurons close to the line between the active and reference sites whose axons happen to be pretty much parallel to the line. […]
4 Channel Right Hemisphere Bipolar How To: https://provider.brain-trainer.com/resources/bal4c-rh-bipolar This particular design, the 4C RH Bipolar, is a type of bipolar training that trains a combination of effective bipolar montages. They are: C4/T4 (reducing fast/increasing slow differences between the sites) often very helpful for reducing physical hyperactivity. Fp2/T4 (reducing fast/increasing slow differences between the sites) often […]
More Information About Specific Types of Protocols This section explores the reasoning behind the use of certain protocols. It does not include education on how to run specific protocols or training sessions. For information on that, please see Training or, if you have one, speak with your training supervisor.
Coherence Training Coherence just means the relationship is stable. It could be in phase (zero phase angle), 180 degrees out of phase (peak lined up with trough or anywhere in between. Coherence speaks to stability of the relationship. Phase speaks to the timing. Synchrony is when the timing relationship between two signals is consistently the […]
Default Mode Network (DMN) The DMN (CON: Phase Sync) protocol trains to increase synchrony in Theta, Alpha and Gamma between sites in the front and back of the brain–especially related to the so-called default-mode network (what your brain is doing when it’s not doing anything), and it is related to self-awareness and knowledge of oneself–some […]
Baseline setting The QWIZ shows you when the baseline is ready. The yellow HEG light stops blinking when the baseline has been selected. If it stops blinking before you are ready to start training, press the link button beneath the green electrode plug on the front of the Wiz. That will restart the baseline calculation. […]
Squash and Squish The Brain-Trainer Squash designation uses 2-38 Hz, so you train down the whole band. If the brain is dominated by 23-38, for example, that frequency is most likely be be affected by the Squash, but the Squash also protects against other frequencies surging up as the high-beta goes down. The Squish is […]
