This post is in follow up to my post of last month detailing my
efforts in increasing happiness via neurofeedback.
[Paul (and others), if you are making a follow-up post, please do it as a reply
post in the previous thread (even your own), so that the whole continues as one
thread set of messages. For readers, the "post of last month" that is referenced
above is http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/morelife/message/1533 --Paul]
A number of
members wrote to me off list, asking for more info and some
questioning the potential placebo effect. While I fully realize that
placebo is effective in roughly a quarter of all "medicines" one takes
I think there is much more to the process in this case.
First, I should point out that I have experienced various negative
effects from the act of causing my brain to reset its core modalities on
reactions to stress (ie the wavelength patterns it traditionally uses).
I do not believe that one would knowingly cause a negative feedback
(negative placebo) unless one had some sort of masochistic tendencies
and I do not exhibit these in other aspects of my life.....except
perhaps in my fondness for golf.....lol.
I am including a link to my MD`s published studies for those of you who
are of this inclination...

Since Dr Lubar believes that much of one`s unhappiness is caused by a
combination of improperly developed/conditioned wavelengths, slowed
signalling and inability to adapt I am wondering what supplements might
be best to target the maintenance and repair of the brain.
