Alpha-Theta
Biofeedback EEG Training:
EEG biofeedback
is a procedure in which brainwaves are measured and turned into sounds
or visual displays that inform the individual when particular brainwaves
are present. For example, a low-pitched tone may indicate the presence
of theta brainwaves (4-8 Hz or cycles/second). A higher pitched tone may
indicate the presence of alpha brainwaves (8-13 Hz). Using these indications,
the individual can learn through trial-and-error to increase the presence
of these brainwaves in order to enhance relaxed, pleasurable states. Such
states tend to enhance creative imagery and reverie as opposed to logical,
linear thought processes.
