Can Neurofeedback Help Reduce Stress and Anxiety?

What is Neurofeedback?

Neurofeedback, also known as EEG biofeedback, is a non-invasive therapy that uses real-time monitoring of brain activity to help you regulate your brainwave patterns. By identifying and addressing imbalances, neurofeedback aims to enhance mental clarity and emotional stability.

How Does Neurofeedback Work?

During a neurofeedback session:

1. Sensors are placed on your scalp to measure brain activity.
2. This activity is displayed on a screen, often as a game or visual feedback.
3. When your brainwaves move toward desired patterns, the feedback reinforces these changes, encouraging self-regulation over time.

Can Neurofeedback Help with Stress and Anxiety?

Stress and anxiety often stem from dysregulated brainwave patterns. Neurofeedback helps by retraining these patterns, promoting a calmer, more focused state of mind.

1. Regulates the Nervous System

Neurofeedback supports the balance between the parasympathetic (rest and digest) and sympathetic (fight or flight) systems, reducing overactivity that contributes to stress and anxiety.

2. Enhances Emotional Resilience

Improving brainwave regulation can help you respond to stressors more effectively, reducing feelings of overwhelm or agitation.

3. Improves Focus and Relaxation

By fostering more stable brainwave activity, neurofeedback encourages better concentration, reduced mental chatter, and an increased sense of calm.
