Finding peace, hope and joy is an expectation of most of us this time of the year, but achieving that can sometimes be difficult. Crowded shopping malls, the quest to find a perfect gift, setting up holiday decorations, traveling, financial burdens, entertaining family, having unexpected company—all of these can affect how well our brains function. 

The holidays are not about gifts but reconnecting with family, friends and faith. This can also be a time to make sure that we are healthy and prepared for the coming year ahead—a moment to find our center in the chaos. There are several ways to reduce holiday related stress, and  neurofeedback is one of them. 

At The Brainwave Center, we utilize neurofeedback programs customized to each of our clients to overcome a variety of issues and achieve sustainable results. Neurofeedback focuses on building new neural pathways to strengthen the brain, rather than patch up the symptoms. This helps the brain learn how to perform more efficiently. 

Generally, our clients report improved moods, decreased impulsivity, restored control of anxiety or depression, increased mental clarity, more restful sleep and a host of other benefits—all without drugs and harsh side effects. We also offer psychotherapy, nutrition therapy and other modalities to help our clients rediscover well–being. This month, we are offering a “Peace of Mind” holiday special which includes a brain scan, consultation, detailed report and full access to our online assessment tools for $199  (normally $400).
