  Neurofeedback For Trauma - Past...

  It's not clear how change will come, but it's clear that change is coming. The current paradigms of treating mental health fall short. 
  The psychiatric view of mental health disorders as imbalances in brain chemistry treated by medication fails to address the root cause. 
  The psychological view of mental health disorders as learned behavioural issues has severe limitations. Psychosocial therapies that require the trauma to be reimagined (talking therapies, EMDR) are ineffective for many traumatised children, adolescents and adults. 
  Neurofeedback therapy reaches the parts other therapies cannot reach. It works at the physiological level first, building the scaffolding for psychological change. 
  The challenge has been understanding, adopting and scaling this obscure approach. 
  Stuart Black explains how these challenges can be addressed, makes the case for Neurofeedback for trauma, and describes how you can incorporate Neurofeedback therapy into your service.

  History of Norway: A Captivating...

  Captivating History

  Did you know that the Vikings from Norway were the first to inhabit Greenland? 
  They were also the first people to settle in Iceland and the Faroes Islands. They also founded the first true cities of Ireland. Although Vikings are a huge part of the history of Norway, the era in which they lived was very short. 
  Norway wasn’t a defined country or even a region in its early history. It was geographically, culturally, and linguistically inseparable from the rest of Scandinavia. Therefore, its history is deeply influenced by not only its inhabitants but also its neighbors. 
  Norway is a unique country located on the fringes of Europe. Its climate and geographical position determined the lifestyle of the people inhabiting it. It was never an easy life. The constant scarcity of arable land, the vast distances they had to traverse due to the myriad of fjords and mountains, and the long and harsh winters in the inland areas made Norwegians constantly struggle for a better life. 
  Norway was also often a target of much stronger neighboring kingdoms, mainly Denmark and Sweden. From the 16th to 19th centuries, Norway was part of a union with first Denmark and then Sweden. None of the unions was a Norwegian choice. And even though the people were aware of the deep connection they shared with the rest of Scandinavia, they had a distinctive Norwegian identity. It was this identity that pushed Norway to fight for its independence. 
  You will find out:Where did the first Norwegians come from?How did the early Bronze Age societies live in the harsh environment of Scandinavia?Why did the Iron Age come so late to Scandinavia?Were the Vikings simply pirates or farmers with a higher cause?How did the Vikings live, and who were the first Norwegian chieftains?And much more
