Are you passionate about biofeedback and neurofeedback because they go beyond the reductionist, pathology oriented medical model, and instead enable you to work from a perspective of Optimal Functioning and Positive Psychological approaches?

 

Then the Winter Brain’s Optimal Functioning and Positive Psychology two day track Feb 5-6) which runs parrallel to the Winter Brain’s advanced neurofeedback, qEEG, energy therapies, Longevity and Aging and practice success tracks could be like a trip to a candy shop for you.

 

 

The father of Neurofeedback, Joe Kamiya, celebrating his 47^th year in the field, will talk about biofeedback as a consciousness tool. http://brainmeeting.com/maxspeakers/reports/speaker45.html

 

In particular, check out the keynotes and bios by Nate Zinsser, Louis Csoka, and Lewis Mehl Madrona—all neurofeedback users who are not highly visible in the world of bio-neurofeedback.  Louise Csoka founded the West Point Peak Performance Center, but now works mostly with corporations. Nate Zinsser is the current director of the West Point Peak Performance Center and is doing amazing work with a range of clients from  Olympic gold medalists and soldiers going to Iraq. Lewis Mehl Madrona is a native American Shaman and a psychiatrist who has worked with Andrew Wile and Gary Schwartz.   Colleen Turner does not work with neurofeedback, but her talk , listed below, is so timely.  Allen Roland is a former top gun jet fighter pilot turned psychologist, who has lived his dreams
