This session corrects a hemispheric asymmetry that is common in clinically depressed individuals. Depressed people tend to have an overactive right (emotional) hemisphere. This session therefore reduces activity in the right brain hemisphere, while increasing activity in the left, giving your more control over yourself and reducing irrational thought patterns.
Depression is commonly linked to inadequate levels of Serotonin. While brainwave stimulation is known to increase levels of Serotonin, this is not the main purpose of the Depression Reduction Session.
Dr. Norman Shealy, Dr. Ray Smith, Saul Rosenthal, Norman Wulfsohn, Sual Liss and many other researchers have found that depression can be reduced with brainwave stimulation. Shealy studied Serotonin levels in particular, and found that a mere 2 weeks of treatment was enough to lift 60% of subjects out of depression. Subjected showed a subsequent increase not only in levels of Serotonin, but also norepinephrine, dopamine and beta-endorphins. In a study on Seasonal Affective Disorder, conducted by Kathy Berg and David Siever, 84% of the subject became clinically non-depressed after treatment, and 100% of those treated experienced a significant reduction in depression. Results also showed decreases in Anxiety, over-eating while energy and motivation levels increased! Twelve of the participants actually lost weight (average of 9.5 pounds) during the trial.
Recordings used with this session will fade in at 6 minutes and fade out at 24 minutes. Note that this does not apply to scripts, which will start immediately.
Use this session to help correct a brainwave imbalance common to depressed individuals. Because this session presents separate stimulation to each brain hemisphere, headphones are required.
It is important to make sure that your headphones are on correctly, with the right side on your right ear, and left side on your left ear. To use this session, find a quiet place, free of distraction. Make sure you are comfortable, in a chair or lying down. After starting the session, close your eyes and try to relax.
You may want to drink a glass of water before each session, particularly if you are using light goggles. Entrainment increases blood flow and metabolism, which can make you thirsty mid-session.
