Abstract
Is it possible to self-regulate your brain rhythms, and if so, what will it do for you? The take home message is: “Everyone should be doing it, soon.” John will trace his personal empiricist journey: first his epiphany in Tuebingen having ignored the field like everyone else; the wonderland of grass roots practitioners in N America and a Pandora’s box of EEG training protocols; the discovery that schizophrenic patients can do it, and remember how to after a 3-month psychotic episode; all this despite the received wisdom of the academic community that they possess a sub clinical disorder; the Royal College of Music studies; Shakespeare’s Globe and virtual reality immersion; ICL ’s ballroom and Latin dance team who went on to win the UK championship; Brixton 11 year olds excused from class to do it; ending with the state of the validation field concerning cognitive, affective and performance and clinical outcomes, and, applications with the elderly.
