 Real-time synchronous gamma training made easy. (SKU: AG-P-119)
Futurehealth WinterBrain 20 minute plenary presentation by Tom Collura.
Gamma waves have been shown to reveal a cohesive, organized state of mind that includes binding of many perceptions into a unified whole. Richard Davidson reported seeing these rhythms in advanced meditators. This presentation will show results and describe methods for the real-time training of fast bihemispherically synchronized 40 Hz ("gamma") activity, through real-time detection and targeting of brief synchronous bursts. This method can capture single brief (e.g. less than ? second) bursts of gamma that occur very rarely (e.g. once per minute), and can clearly discern and feed back individual bursts, for training purposes. This will be related to the cortical dynamics that underly the gamma rhythm, and discussed in the context of gamma training. |

 Remarkable Anecdotes on Healers and Their Interventions (SKU: AH-P-283)
Futurehealth WinterBrain 20 minute plenary presentation by Beverly Rubik
Dr. Rubik began conducting research on spiritual and energy healers in the late 1970s, after she had a remarkable personal healing experience. She will tell stories of remarkable healings that have occurred in the clinic as well as the laboratory, on humans, animals, and cell cultures. These data include the qualitative, inner dimensions of healing, and depict unique and sometimes uncontrolled events. They are inspirational and provide insights into the mysterious real-life phenomena of healing, revealing its transpersonal dimensions. Healing experiences are remarkably unique to each person and typically offer spiritual lessons for both healer and healee. |

 Reward And Inhibit Strategies: Recent Advances in Theory and Practice (SKU: AG-W4-064)
Futurehealth WinterBrain 4 hour workshop by Sue Othmer.
This workshop will cover (1) the very different roles of rewards and inhibits, and how they relate to normal regulatory rhythms versus abnormal disregulated EEG activity; (2) different clinical options in combining inhibit bands and optimizing reward frequencies with one and two-channel EEG training; (3) the role of bipolar training in desynchronizing EEG activity and stabilizing brain function; and (4) the integration of interhemispheric with single-hemisphere training. |

 Self-Regulation & Biofeedback Treatment of Borderline Personality (SKU: AH-W2-372)
Futurehealth Workshop by Jerry Wesch
Borderline Personality Disorder patients are common in health psychology practice, presenting with stress disorders, exacerbated somatic symptoms, chronic pain, headache, and other troubling symptoms. The systematic use of self-awareness building approaches, self-soothing cognitive and behavioral training and self-regulation strategies, reinforced by biofeedback instrumentation, can make treating these complex patients easier and more effective.
The presentation provides a step-by-step protocol for integrating biofeedback, self awareness training and cognitive behavioral techniques. |

 Shaman's Mind, Shaman's Work, Shaman's Dialogue (SKU: AG-W2-023)
Futurehealth Workshop Lewis Mehl-Medrona
In this workshop, we will explore the shamans (indigenous or aboriginal healers) take on mind, consciousness, health, and illness. We will compare this aboriginal way of gaining knowledge with European-derived cultures? insistence upon external expertise that is codified in categories and algorithms of practice. Many Western mindsets would view this story about mind as preposterous, invalid, or even psychotic, yet shamans quietly go about their work in communities where there reputation and livelihood is based upon sufficient success as to be noticed. We will close by discussing what we can learn from shamanic practice to enrich our own practices. |

 Simplicity and Complexity in Neurofeedback (SKU: AG-P-081)
Futurehealth WinterBrain Plenary presentation by Sigfried Othmer.
Considerable proliferation has occurred in recent years in basic approaches to neurofeedback. Yet there is considerable overlap in terms of efficacy. The attempt is made in this talk to extract the essential elements of commonality among these approaches, and the essential elements that differentiate them. In the manner, it may be possible to discern a minimal set of attributes that neurofeedback strategies should feature in order to yield full coverage of the clinical terrain. |

Stories and Transformation (SKU: AG-P-030)
Futurehealth Plenary Talk Lewis Mehl-Medrona
No guidelines, algorithms, or principles exist for sudden, dramatic transformations in the lives of individuals, communities, or cultures. We may be able to predict when transformation is about to occur, but its directions are outside of our grasp. In this presentation, we will consider stories as a source of wisdom for how to transform. Aboriginal culture is replete with stories of spiritual and other transformations, the repetition of which, installs in the listener an intuitive sense for how to proceed and the belief that sudden transformation, even against all odds, is possible. |
