It drives me crazy that Bessel recommends Neurofeedback so strongly, but then I can't figure out what kind, exactly, nor how to find a reputable practitioner in my area. (I keep going to people that clearly just got a hold of some equipment but are untrained.)

I start neurofeedback therapy next Wednesday, I'm excited about it.

It's nice to see someone advocating drug free self care /emotional regulation . This could be taught across the nation as its accessible , easier to access than meditation or yoga and can be low or no cost. I'm ready to retire but maybe this may be my next journey.

This is so unbelievably stupid. Never underestimate how much nociceptive inputs coming from the periphery can have bioplstic changes on your organism

Tijuana, I just discovered you and I am so grateful! I just saw that you are coming to Cincinnati at the end of October, the beginning of November and I hope to be a part of your training! I love your perspective on Tapping and I really appreciate this video. I am an Addiction Counselor and I sincerely believe in the perspective, “it’s a simple program for complicated people!”…tap, talk, tell the truth…WOW! Thank you! I hope to meet you in person in a couple of weeks! Gene Johnson LISW-S

I am studying counselling and I am very interested in Neurofeedback because it is so visual in its measuring capabilities both for clients and clinicians. I am just wondering how the sham group were able to have a 30% positive outcome that lasted 3 months - how were the 30% measured because Ruth said their neurofeedback view did not change - did they just measure their success off the client's state of emotional feelings and what does it mean that people can feel better but not have a brain change?

Is this best to be done while in the moment or a trauma trigger like while in flight or fight

You guys should include that Bessel Van der Kolk is part of this in the title, you'd probably get a lot more views! Great video, I really liked Lorraine's plain English ways of describing such a deep, meaningful process.

Does neurofeedback work for fibromyalgia

This is very informative and gives me hope. In Germany, where I live, neurofeedback is relatively unknown and firmly in the hands of people with very little medical expertise - alternative practitioners and occupational therapists, and maybe some coaches. Only a few doctors and psychotherapists, and you have to be lucky to have one near the place where you live. But psychotherapy these days is not really an option because since the pandemic you have to wait 6 to 12 month minimum to get an appointment, and that's for therapists who aren't even very specialized. As for the non-medical practitioners, this is something unique to our country, the standards are very low and you can basically call yourself "Heilpraktiker" after declaring you don't intend to harm people and completing a handful of seminars. This is not to say there aren't some who know what they're doing, but most will have a focus on herbal medicine and such. You don't really want them to mess with your brain... The occupational therapists mostly either don't have the equipment in the first place because it's expensive and not used as a standard, or they have it but the only person who can use it has only done a 2-weeks training and/or not much practical experience. I experienced that first-hand because I went to three different of these therapists before I found a doctor experienced in neurofeedback. She's highly skilled, still health insurance won't cover the treatment. Unlike the occupational therapy before, which was a disaster (one of them needed three appointments to even get the machine running properly). I'm not sure how the situation became so absurd... In a nutshell you can say that in Germany there are only few people able to use the full potential of neurofeedback, and apart from that it's a somewhat exotic therapy tool seldom used by some alternative practitioners and occupational therapists. As a result, people who suffer from trauma or depression, even if they happen to know about neurofeedback, will probably not find anyone skilled enough to treat them. And then most people, including medical professionals, don't even know the method exists in the first place. It's such a powerful tool, it should be standard in the field of psychological disorders. Instead it's used only in a very narrow range, by people who have little or no knowledge about how the brain works, thus contributing little to its advancement or changing the status quo.

This research is so profound. Why is it not main stream already?!?

Once 50% of your school populations has been traumatised, you don,t set up a clinic, you change the school to manage the trauma. Can anyone see the parallel with obesity and overweight now half our population has become so overweight - don,t set up a clinic but change the culture & the food system! As recognised for decades.

Such a good explanation, I have a sway back so I sit forward and straight all the time and laying back feels uncomfortable to me. Everyone always comments on my posture. I always do the superman pose without even noticing it. My husband always comments and grumbles when he gets into my vehicle, because it sits up straight, lol.

I love this video. You provide great insight on the history of hip hop and beat making. I was wondering if you are still hosting the Online Global Beat Zypher?

Thank you for helping me be here for me

Thank you very much for this. Namaste

I love the rapport on display here

Great vid guys. Very interesting and informal. I would love to try this but its not well known here

There are 33,801 psychotherapists in the us, if every single one did NF then that would be 1 NF provider per 8,875 people. The numbers say that Seburn is living a fantasy instead of the real world, NF trainers with bachelors degree's everywhere is the real world solution.

I'm so taken with neurofeedback, thank you for this video. Did you get a database of practitioners? I am looking for a therapist/practitioner in Capetown, South Africa. Please make a referral if possible. Thank you

These is very interesting information. Thank you! I have a teen daughter who experienced trauma about 5 years ago and she is just miserable with anxiety 24/7 and panic attacks and acid reflux daily and many many other issues. Would this help? If so, please kindly tell me where I can find this type of therapist. I live in Southern California. Thank you so much 🙏❤️

Thank you 🙏 That was Great info to release my anxiety 💗

I totally agree with Bessel about Ruth. She is so exciting to be on this along with the other two specialists. Hooray!

Where does one go to find a competent trauma informed neurofeedback therapist? Is there a listing of folks who have completed training? Thanks.

Therapeutic, educational, cross cultural - incredible!

Jackie Johnson kofi healing studio in Philadelphia. That's close to me!

And multicultural! You definitely are Today's Future Sound.

Web based free! Outstanding!

Free web based! Outstanding!

Cross cultural too!

So wait, you know someone who talked with Bessel can see Kolk?

Hey man. This is pretty cool. As a singer / songwriter who used to make his own demos, I always thought of beats as creating a mood and atmosphere to support the 'song' but I never really explored the idea of creating a non verbal narrative. Very powerful idea.

This is an amazing gift to the world! I have shared this link with my clients and they, as well as I, see increasing positive shifts physically, emotionally, and mentally! Thank you!!

Excellent! Doing the whole protocol together felt amazing!

this is absolutely awesome. Thank you. Can you please tell us what the significance is of looking at our hands and then looking far away once they are at eye level? Thank you!!

I loved experiencing my self the differences in moving on the inhale vs the exhale! Very noticeable how my body didn’t want to move as far on the inhale. Makes sense how impactful breathing is on our bodies and in particular being able to relax and exhale! All of the exercises felt good to do, my favorite was the last one! Thank you for this resource!

Thank you só much Pamela, for this extended explanation of the TER! It made me understand it more than I did ever before. And practising while you showed us how, was very enlightning. So thank you for this video. And I wish you all a very good conference!

What date was this? No given with video 🙏🏻

I like the jenga style piled book stack behind Dr Kolk. I was anxious it’s gonna topple 🤣💜

I’ve been trying this technique this week. I shall keep trying it as I do exposure therapy and going for walks. Pamala was such a delight in this video. You can tell she genuinely wants to help and enjoys what she does. Thanks, TRF! You have amazing workshops!

The issue of Journal of EMDR Practice and Research noted presents research on "low-intensity" and scalable interventions such as Flash and group EMDR protocols rather than "high-intensity" one therapist/one client interventions.(Manfield developed Flash as part of Preparation Phase of EMDR but it can often can stand alone as a non-exposure-based treatment.

Thank you for this excellent discussion, Licia and Deborah. The succinct description of EMDR and your new book should reach many people and inspire them with hope for healing from traumatic life experiences. By way of clarification about Manfield's Flash Technique, listeners might be interested in the latest issue of the Journal of EMDR Practice and Research April 2021 Vol 15, Issue 1. DOI:

My cat joined me on my cushion and decided to befriend my body too. 🙂 Thank you! So nice to just be okay here now.

Thank you for being there helping me & other be here too. 🙏
