Innercise: Meditation

Guided Meditation is one of of the foundations of the neural reconditioning training process and the brain wave frequency upon which you build the structures of new beliefs, goals and aspirations to your nonconscious brain. While many people associate meditation with relaxation, its central impact is training your brain to focus on exactly what you want to achieve while creating new neural pathways to match your vision.

Brain Myth #5: EEG Readings Predict Improvements in Health

Fact: Maybe yes, maybe no. Different behaviors, and different ways of thinking will generate different brainwave frequencies (delta, theta, alpha, beta, and gamma) in different parts of the brain. In the 1980s and 90s, considerable attention was given to EEG readings that record faint electrical activity along the outermost surface of the brain. Biofeedback and neurofeedback devices showed that we can consciously alter the brainwave frequencies in some parts of the brain, and when a person learns how to do this, certain improvements in behavior, cognition, and emotional regulation could be made. The research remained controversial because

Brain Myth #4: Video Brain Games improve cognition.

Fact: Yes, but not enough to make any practical improvement. They only work for elderly individuals experiencing specific forms of cognitive decline. Memory improves, but not in ways that improve day-to-day life. Praxis Now does not make use of these technologies.

What works best for slowing down the aging processes of the brain? Exercise, a healthy diet, and intense intellectual and social stimulation. Have as many friends as possible. Build strong family ties. Engage in meaningful work and philanthropy. And remain steadfastly optimistic, no matter what.

Brain Myth #3: The brain slows down with age.

Fact: Actually, neuroplasticity increases. Too much information comes in, creating confusion and anxiety. Our NeuroTraining exercises lower stress, which is one of the key culprits associated with neurogenerative disease.

Brain Myth #2: There are right-brain and left-brain personalities and traits.

Fact: Both hemispheres are intricately interconnected, and information is constantly shared with every activity we perform. As adults we need both sides, and there are certain brain-entrainment strategies that appear to enhance hemispheric dialogue.

In reality, each person has unique areas of the brain that can play a dominant role. Thus, one person will have a talent for music, another for math. Some people have brains that allow them to excel in sports, while others will be gifted in language. And for each area that we are strong in, there will be an area in which we are weak. But if one area is damaged, our brains can compensate in amazing ways. For example: a blind person can use the tongue to actually “see” an object with the aid of a computer-driven device. Under special circumstances, stimulation to the tongue will activate the visual cortex of the brain.

Can we use this information to stimulate the whole brain? Yes! That is why we embed a dozen different strategies in our programs so that your brain can “choose” which ones work best for creating greater neural coherence between both hemispheres and specific regions of the cortex.

Brain Myth #1: You only use 10 percent of your brain.

Fact: Over a 24 hour period, you use your entire brain. Some parts are resting, while others are active, but if neurons are not activated, they die off. Usually this happens in childhood. Did you know we are born with 200 billion neurons, but adults only have half? Where did the other half go? They were “pared off” in childhood: the useless beliefs and perceptions stored in certain neurons are replaced by neural networks that have value and meaning in our lives.

Brain plasticity: This discovery is referred to as the “Discovery of The Decade.”

I am a fan of John Assaraf. Being so, here's what I am reading about his works to-date ...

Brain plasticity: This discovery is referred to as the “Discovery of The Decade.”

Our brains are not hardwired as once thought. Our brain is constantly making new connections as we experience life and learn new ideas, patterns and skills. These connections formulate our thoughts, beliefs, habits and emotions. The parts of the human brain that are directly related to motivation, emotional regulation, social awareness, and conscious decision-making are some of the most flexible neural circuits in the brain. These neural circuits act like software in a computer. Change the software and you change the output. We now know that we can can change our ...read more

Maximize Your Potential (by creating new neural circuits)

The human brain has enormous untapped potential, and the most recent findings in neuroscience prove that you can restructure your brain in ways that will allow you to achieve greater success in reaching your financial and business success. You can actually transform old, habituated neural circuits that control the thoughts and actions that currently hold you back from maximizing your full potential. You can now override the cause of your current results by developing more powerful beliefs, habits and actions by creating new neural circuits that stimulate greater clarity, focus, productivity, motivation, and new behaviors that line up with the goals you set and want to achieve.

When you apply the right brain training strategies, in the right way, you can easily replace limiting ... read more

The Reason Why We Need To Train Our Brain

Your brain has enormous untapped potential, and the most recent findings in brain research prove that you can re-wire your brain in ways that will allow you to achieve greater financial and business success easier and faster than ever before. You can now significantly reduce your doubts, fears, anxieties, stress and procrastination by transforming old, habituated neural circuits that control the thoughts and actions responsible for your current results and hold you back from maximizing your full potential. In order to achieve your financial or business goals you must first access the deeply rooted subconscious beliefs and habits and change them to more powerful ones.

Trying harder and working longer is NOT the key.
