Neurofeedback for mental fitness and well being
Neurofeedback reorganizes the brain’s “shifting” functions: calming when it is time to be still or mobilizing easily when it is time to solve problems or take effective action in the world.
Join us on our 7-Day THORT Mental Fitness Challenge with a THORT Buddy or a small group.
The Goal of Neurofeedback is flexible self-regulation
When our brains are dis-regulated we may have the “potential” to reach great success but having we have lost our mental “shifting” ability. This is the flexibility to go from a calm mindset to a problem solving mindset.
7-day mental stretch
Join the THORT 7-day mental challenge and rewire your brain to cope with the pace of the 21 Century. Become fitter, more coherent and resilient. Have fun training and see the results. Compare your initial level of skill to the end result after 7 -days.
Boost mental well-being
A multiple case study examined the behavioral outcomes of neurocognitive training, targeting working memory, impulse control, attention/relaxation. using directed Neurofeedback to promote neural plasticity.
Build resilience and joy
Bounce back quickly after a setback - use neurofeedback with neurocoaching to build mental plasticity with updated skills. Reclaim mental agility lost due to stress, aging, or join us for fun with neurofeedback.

Build mental fitness and performance
Neurofeedback uses an electronic brain band or cap fitted with non-invasive sensors that touch the scalp. It can measure and monitor the fluctuations in your brain activity, using specialized brain analysis software. This records mainly your dominant brain waves in the moment and we can track the quality and coherence of your attention and mood over the time.
During a neurofeedback session, we compare what your brain is actually doing to what you'd like it to be doing. When your brain is nearing a more comfortable state, you are rewarded with a positive response on a computer screen. Usually this ‘neuro-feedback’ is in the form of a THORTbot run, a video game, music, or movie. Much like physical exercises develops specific muscles, the more you practice the ability to direct your focus and hold your attention form wandering, the more efficient and mentally coherent you get. As with learning a new skill, it requires repetition and time.
Volunteer: Youth with special learning needs.
We work with caregivers of Youth with Special Learning Needs. Helping just one child with unique Learning Needs can significantly impact the lives of 7+ people!
The child copes with more ease, is happier and progresses and the quality of life and care of support of the mother or caregiver is enriched or lightened.

Watch point:
Children should only use verified and approved games for neurofeedback.
Engineering and software designers students make EEG games for university assignments, and then develop them further and market them without any awareness of the underlying cognitive and neural development implications. They make claims that appear to be convincing, but on further investigation they are not valid. The way the competitive and reward system is designed in the activity encourages the child to focus attention on building specific brain wave levels that could cause disturbed sleep or even increase underlying anxiety in susceptible children.
