By 2005 we were supporting several large home-trainer neurofeedback networks. We continue to be one of the few providers who make the same resources available to lay and professional trainers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>We\u2019ve seen some astonishing results achieved by lay trainers, and we\u2019ve also seen that home-based training is not a good solution for everyone. Our approach is to make sure prospective lay trainers understand what they\u2019re getting into, what the costs will be, and what they\u2019ll need to succeed. We\u2019ll help them find a professional if they decide that makes more sense. If not, we\u2019ll support them to achieve the best results they can.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"385\" height=\"256\" data-id=\"38958\" class=\"wp-image-38958\" src=\"https:\/\/brain-trainer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/sc-father-son.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/brain-trainer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/sc-father-son.jpg 385w, https:\/\/brain-trainer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/sc-father-son-200x133.jpg 200w, https:\/\/brain-trainer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/sc-father-son-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 385px) 100vw, 385px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What it Takes to Train at Home<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>A computer running Windows 10 or later will work. <a href=\"https:\/\/brain-trainer.com\/support\/resources\/computer-specs-brain-training\/\">See system specifications<\/a>. It is possible to use a Mac as long as you have installed a program called Boot Camp, which partitions the hard drive and lets you install Windows on one side. A secondary monitor makes the process much smoother. And, of course, you\u2019ll need the gear and education to do training, which we can provide.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The most important key to success, however, is what we call the IT (identified trainer). This may be the client, a parent or anyone who is organized and motivated enough to make sure the training sessions happen regularly. By that, we mean that training is ideally done at least twice a week. One session every week or two, or 4 sessions in 2 weeks, then a week without, etc. is like going to the gym on that schedule. You won\u2019t get results, you\u2019ll get frustrated, and you\u2019ll end up wasting your money. The IT should be someone who is comfortable with computers and ideally someone who can follow instructions. Finally, the IT should NOT be actively at war with the target client. Otherwise, the training just becomes another battle in the war, and it won\u2019t happen. If you can\u2019t provide these things, spend your money on a good trainer.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the Options?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The two major brain-training systems we recommend are HEG and EEG. <a href=\"https:\/\/brain-trainer.com\/about\/brain-training\/\">HEG <\/a>is quick and easy to use and is helpful for problems of attention, impulse control, organization, motivation, emotional stability and brightness, etc. It\u2019s a good option for training almost immediately, without an assessment and in only 15-20 minutes every other day. <a href=\"https:\/\/brain-trainer.com\/about\/brain-training\/\">EEG training<\/a> is more complex to learn and do. There are some basic skills to learn, but with support a lay trainer can gather the data for their QEEG and conduct whole-brain training at home. For physical issues like sleep or pain, for emotional issues, trauma, meditative states, etc. EEG is an important part of training.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Both EEG and HEG together are ideal. Many home trainers\u2014especially those working on primarily cognitive issues of mental performance in younger brains, may find HEG is all they need. It is reasonable initially to buy an HEG State Changer system and then add EEG if and when desired.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the Risks?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The Brain-Trainer approach doesn\u2019t push the brain, and it focuses on flexibility and stability. This means that it is very unlikely to result in discomfort or even a temporary negative response.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>That said, anything that has the power to help you change your brain in positive ways can also have negative results. You can overdo it swimming or jogging or working out at the gym, and so it is with neurofeedback. The Brain-Trainer approach is to look at the brain in detail\u2014see what activation patterns are in place and identify those most likely to block the desired changes. The <a href=\"https:\/\/brain-trainer.com\/support\/resources\/whole-brain-training-plan\/\">Whole-Brain Training Plan<\/a> works all of these in a circuit of five segments, so no one site or system is over-trained and the whole system changes. Certainly, a person may experience a release of emotions during or after a session\u2014tears or anger\u2014as a part of letting go of old patterns, but these responses generally last 8-12 hours or less. Plus, the client always has the right to stop an exercise if it doesn\u2019t feel good. Returning to the same training five sessions later in the next circuit, that same exercise can turn out to feel good and be one of the most useful.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"628\" height=\"479\" class=\"wp-image-32992\" src=\"https:\/\/brain-trainer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/WBTP-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/brain-trainer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/WBTP-2.jpg 628w, https:\/\/brain-trainer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/WBTP-2-200x153.jpg 200w, https:\/\/brain-trainer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/WBTP-2-393x300.jpg 393w, https:\/\/brain-trainer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/WBTP-2-300x229.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Does Brain-Trainer Help?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>We\u2019ve packaged the gear for you, so you don\u2019t have to figure out what you need.
