Biofeedback Training
    Biofeedback includes many forms -  skin temperature, heart rate variability, skin
    conductance, EEG, surface EMG or muscle tension forms of biofeedback, and several
    others.  It works by feeding back information to you about how some aspect of your bio-
    physiology is functioning and then you can learn to change it in ways that treat specific
    conditions or to generally improve health and wellbeing.  Research has shown
    biofeedback to be effective for numerous disorders, and it has been endorsed by the
    prestigious National Institute of Health (NIH). Applications for biofeedback training
    include hypertension, stress, tension headaches, migraine headaches, anxiety, pain
    management, Raynaud's syndrome, test anxiety, irritable bowel syndrome and insomnia.

    Biofeedback is often combined with breath training which together lower the autonomic
    nervous system arousal that underlies or exacerbates many different conditions.  
    Through computer based feedback it teaches people how to control the stress
    response, i.e."fight or flight" response, of their mind and body, thereby freeing
    themselves from conditioned reactivity.  Biofeedback is essentially a self-empowering
    training that allows you to take hold of the keys to your mind and body and the ways
    they respond to life.  

    In addition to the clinical applications of biofeedback, it is used as a part of peak
    performance training and meditation training as well.  

    Dr. Edwards has been doing biofeedback and neurofeedback training with children and
    adults since 1997.

    There is an excellent home training biofeedback package called Journey To Wild Divine
    that works on teaching stress reducing relaxation skills through a beautifully crafted
    software and hardware package that is very engaging for children and adults. It
    combines wonderful computer graphics of going on a mythic journey with easy to use
    biofeedback sensors placed on your hand. Click on the link below to see for yourself!
