    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.

    The life story of Robert Monroe, consciousness pioneer, bestselling author, self-made millionaire, and out-of-body traveler.Robert Monroe was a towering figure in twentieth-century consciousness research, yet his story is mostly unknown. The boy who loved adventure and exploration, fast cars and rickety aircraft, became a millionaire through writing and producing radio shows in New York City. And then, at age forty-two, he found himself traveling out of body, having no idea what was happening to him.Journeys of Robert Monroe chronicles how Monroe became an iconoclast with his work in the consciousness world—making out-of-body experience (OBE) and astral travel household expressions. Monroe not only helped others understand this state of being, but through his research on binaural beats and his development of the technology known as Hemi-Sync, he made the OBE accessible through programs at the Monroe Institute. Attended by thousands of people each year, his institute used technology to create frequencies that helped people with everything from meditation and learning to curing insomnia, quitting smoking, and pain control.Journeys of Robert Monroe reveals his contribution to the understanding of human consciousness. Yet his legacies, as UC Davis psychology professor emeritus Charles Tart once said, “are not just a great gift to knowledge, but a real service to people who are plagued by doubts and unfulfilled spiritual longings.” His was a true hero’s journey.

    Music has long been recognized as a universal language, transcending cultural and linguistic barriers to evoke emotions, inspire creativity, and foster connections. Its profound ability to influence the human mind and body makes it a powerful tool in the realm of healing. Across centuries and civilizations, music has been intertwined with rituals, ceremonies, and therapeutic practices, underscoring its integral role in promoting well-being and harmony. 
    At its core, the healing power of music lies in its ability to engage multiple dimensions of human experience. On a physical level, music stimulates neural pathways in the brain, influencing areas responsible for emotion, memory, and motor coordination. Research has shown that listening to or playing music can lower cortisol levels, the hormone associated with stress, while simultaneously boosting the production of dopamine, which promotes feelings of pleasure and relaxation. These biochemical responses highlight music’s potential to alleviate stress, reduce pain, and improve overall physiological health. 
    Emotionally, music serves as a conduit for expression and connection. It has the unique ability to articulate feelings that words often cannot capture, offering solace during moments of grief, anxiety, or despair. For individuals dealing with mental health challenges, music therapy provides a safe and non-invasive avenue to explore and process emotions. Whether through the soothing strains of a classical melody or the energizing beats of a rhythmic tune, music can uplift spirits, encourage self-reflection, and foster resilience.
