a science-based strategy for achieving peak performance
The benefits of neurofeedback on high performers
Think of neurofeedback as a “fine-tuning” method. When your brainwaves are optimized, it improves the body-brain function and communication. Some of the areas that neurofeedback can improve:
- Reduces anxiety and improve sleep quality
- Enhances mental focus and concentration
- Improves reaction time
- Enhances memory and recall
- Improves the ability to recover
Elevate your game
The ability to reach peak performance at a neurophysiological level without exposing yourself to drugs and side effects is an intriguing and exciting endeavor that could impact all of us, not just artists and athletes. With brain training, it’s not that far from reality. You go to the gym to strengthen your body, but remember that physical performance also requires a strong mind.
What leads to poor performance
Your day-to-day functioning can be enhanced whether you are a world-class singer or a developing athlete. The zone of optimal functioning is greatly influenced by your state of mind, Unfortunately, we are not always in the right state of mind. In spite of its conveniences, the increasing demands of modern life cause more stress and disruption. If you are always stressed out or feeling out of balance, it’s even more difficult to perform optimally.
Why brain training is important
The state of exceptional functioning was once thought of as rare and involuntary. Something that is dictated by your DNA. But decades of research revealed that the brain is not hardwired. Your brain can grow, adapt, and create new neural connections because of neuroplasticity.
Neurofeedback, a sophisticated form of biofeedback, is grounded on operant conditioning. It allows individuals to learn and modify some aspects of their cortical activity. It shows you the different states of cortical arousal and how each feels like so you’ll know how to activate such states voluntarily. Consider brain training if you wish to optimize your performance, improve learning, and make meaningful changes in your life.
Can neurofeedback enhance performance?
More and more people are turning to neurofeedback not only to receive aid for various clinical disorders but also to maximize their potential and improve their general well-being. The concept of how neurofeedback can enhance performance is simple. For instance, through the EEG recordings from your brain, you will be able to see the difference between excellent performance and poor performance. This will give you an opportunity to specifically train the brain which results in excellent performance or the “good shot.” The best thing about neurofeedback is it gives the client and clinician evidence-based feedback on what is working and what is not.
