Today’s Interview on the Art of Adventure podcast is part of our series on cutting edge modalities, health metaphysics, and peak performance. Our guest is the founder of the Neurotherapy Center of St. Louis, Dr. Ashley Wiegand. According to Dr. Wiegand, her brain-based approach on counselling addresses the underlying biological patterns related to the individual’s concerns, while also looking at habits, perception, and interpersonal environment.

Dr.
Wiegand uses the specialized treatments of biofeedback and neurofeedback to
help shift away from stuck patterns towards better functioning, growth, and
change. Neurofeedback can be used for performance enhancement in healthy individuals,
but it can also be used for dealing with dysfunctions like PTSD, anxiety, and EDD.
It basically helps your brain spend more time in a desired state.

In
this episode, you’ll hear about my experience with Dr. Wiegand because I
recently went to have a visit with her. We picked a protocol that I could use
to enhance my performance. Right now, we are in a point where we are starting
to understand the brain more and we are developing this technology in
monitoring the brainwave activity and being able to pinpoint what’s going on in
there.

What
you’ll learn in this episode:

* What neurofeedback and biofeedback are* The exact protocol we used when I was in Doctor Wiegand’s laboratory.* What my experience was with neurofeedback and the results* How you can apply and take advantage of neurofeedback and biofeedback * How to achieve peak potential, push your limits, and optimize your brain, applying this modality

* "Neurofeedback will help you shift into a state as desired" - Dr. Ashley Wiegand* "Fire flickers in a delta frequency - that is why it is so calming" - Dr. Ashley Wiegand
