What if the hardest behaviors in your home are signals from a brain that needs a different kind of help? We sit down with Dr. Licata of Vital Brain Health to demystify neurofeedback.We break down the three big reasons brains get out of balance—injury, genetics , and environment —and show how a map turns that mystery into direction. You'll hear how neurofeedback uses precise rewards to teach the brain better rhythms while the client watches a show or plays a simple game, why 40 sessions is the minimum effective dose for lasting change, and how training daytime sensory motor rhythms supports deeper, more stable sleep at night.If you've been told to “wait and see,” or you're tired of feeling blamed for behavior you can't explain, this conversation offers a map, a method, and hope.Loved this conversation?

In this conversation, licensed professional counselor and Enneagram coach Becky Lauridsen reframes self-care as protection (not pampering) and opens the door to brain health with neurofeedback. From postpartum anxiety and over-functioning to rodeo performance and concussion recovery, we explore how to build capacity on purpose, before the crash out.Becky shares the origin story of IOWEME (“I owe me”), a preventative, accessible, guilt-free self-care model born from her own burnout and postpartum anxiety. We unpack the crucial difference between self-indulgence (instant relief, little ROI) and true self-care (sometimes uncomfortable, always compounding). We also trade the myth of work–life balance for work–life harmony: a “pleasing arrangement of parts” calibrated to your actual rhythms (hello, 5:30am clarity!).Then Becky takes us into ROAM (Rodeo Optimization and Mindset) and explains low-energy neurofeedback as a practical path to brain health. Think “parking brake off” for your frontal lobe: better regulation, focus, and recovery after high-intensity performance (for athletes and their horses). If you're craving capacity that's truly sustainable, this one's for you.Listen in for …The self-care vs. self-indulgence distinction, and why protection beats pampering.The IOWEME model: preventative, accessible, and simple mental-health support.Work/life harmony (not balance): designing a “pleasing arrangement of parts.”The “check-engine light” for burnout (irritability over the stray socks = signal).Neurofeedback 101: electrical vs. chemical brain systems, suppression, and flexibility.The “parking brake” metaphor: why so many high-capacity women feel stuck in Delta.Performance & recovery for rodeo athletes, and why brain care must match body care.The pony case study (!) and what equine sessions revealed about regulation.TL;DR (Minute by Minute)00:00 “Conversations” > “episodes” + why listener feedback matters.01:11 Meet Becky: LPC, EMDR, Enneagram coach, LENS neurofeedback provider.06:17 Postpartum anxiety, burnout, and the wake-up call: it starts with me.10:01 IOWEME origin: from reactive therapy culture to preventative care.12:32 Responsibility & boundaries: self-care as non-negotiable, not “extra.”16:00 Self-indulgence vs self-care (instant relief vs lasting effect).18:54 “Outweigh the indulgence”: a practical rule that still leaves room for fun.23:44 Non-negotiable habits: why early-morning quiet time compounds.27:34 Work/life harmony > balance; design for your real energy ebb and flow.31:47 ROAM begins: from rodeo roots to neurofeedback certification.35:49 Neurofeedback explained: amplitude, frequency, suppression.38:59 The parking brake brain: lifting Delta lock for flexible regulation.41:01 Equine neurofeedback: the pony case and practical behavior change.43:35 Head trauma, concussions, CTE risk, and recovery as standard practice.47:26 Where to find Becky + what's next.Where to Go From HereQuestion for you: When the day feels heavy, which shows up first: self-indulgence or true self-care?

Johanna Hager, DCFC, LCPC, FAPA, DCFI, CCFIT, joined Wake Up Tri-Counties to discuss Othmer Method Neurofeedback therapy and the equipment used to assist with talk therapy. About 25 years ago, Sue Othmer, a pioneer in neurofeedback, diverged from the standard practice by allowing the brain to guide its own process, rather than relying on statistical norms. Her approach, now known as the Othmer method, involves adjusting the ‘reward' frequencies based on individual client responses—tracking symptoms like fatigue, headaches, or improvement. This real-time feedback eliminates the need for expensive brain maps and often produces quicker, more comprehensive results. While many found success with this method, it hasn't gained universal acceptance, as most practitioners continue to use traditional neurofeedback assessment strategies. Interest in brain waves has dramatically grown since Hans Berger discovered electrical brain activity in the 1920s. Researchers now focus on how different mental states and brain diseases correlate with these electrical signals. Neurofeedback, an emerging area of biofeedback, allows individuals to target and modify their brain waves directly. By monitoring brain activity through sensors, users receive real-time feedback—often in the form of sounds or visual cues—to train their minds toward healthier patterns. This approach is being investigated as a potential treatment for disorders such as ADHD, anxiety, and epilepsy, offering new hope for non-invasive interventions. A pioneering shift in neurofeedback therapy is drawing attention as researchers embrace infra-low frequency (ILF) techniques. Originating around 12 years ago, Carl Shames and Sue Othmer were at the forefront, experimenting with frequencies lower than ever before, measured in millihertz rather than hertz. Contrary to expectations, these ultra-low frequencies produced quicker and more widespread benefits, with patients often noticing effects immediately after their first session. The Othmer Institute has reported a dramatic reduction in the average number of required sessions. The ILF approach is making neurofeedback more effective and increasingly accessible, offering hope for those seeking affordable brain training options. Researchers at the Othmer Institute have achieved remarkable breakthroughs using ultra-low frequency brain training. By working at frequencies measured in millihertz, between 0.01 and 0.1 Hz, participants reported rapid improvements in just their first session, feeling calm or tired almost immediately. Follow-up accounts after a second session included notable behavioral and cognitive changes. The overall number of sessions required has dropped dramatically, with many individuals experiencing core benefits in just 6-8 visits. This development has not only made neurofeedback faster and more effective but also far more affordable, paving the way for broader, more accessible mental health support. Johanna Hager is a member of the American Psychological Association and a certified trauma specialist. She recently moved into private practice and is working to get her new office fully established. The equipment and software are available at Bee Medic. Find more information on the equipment and software for ILF Neurofeedback here. There are webinars available if you would like to learn more about neurofeedback from Bee Medic. Johanna has been a therapist for about 35 years and has treated people of all ages and psychological needs. Johanna has experienced great success using neurofeedback. Neurofeedback is a tool used in conjunction with talk therapy, which allows the brain to slow down and relax, helping the patient break down the walls to heal. You can call or text 309-489-2195 with any questions or to ask what she still needs for her office. To make an appointment with Johanna Hager, call 309-489-2195 or book online.

Is porn anti-feminist? As a recovering feminist — my answer is yes. But the truth goes deeper: porn is anti-human.I'm Dr. Trish Leigh — cognitive neuroscientist and author of Mind Over Explicit Matter. When I spoke on Jubilee's Middle Ground with porn performers, I stood up for this: porn isn't empowerment — it's exploitation. Too many performers are groomed into the industry because they lack real education and support.Education is empowerment — that's why I'm here. To help you break porn's grip on your brain, your connection, your intimacy, and your humanity. Everything I share is backed by neuroscience, real data, and decades of study.

The good news? With intentional use and neurofeedback, we can restore brain function and reclaim our attention. In this episode, neuroscientist Dr. Trish Leigh reveals how "supernormal stimuli" are hijacking our dopamine systems. Pornography produces up to 400% dopamine increase (nearly cocaine-level at 450%), while screens resonate at 60 Hz, pushing brain activity into overdrive. Healthy calm focus operates at 10 Hz, but prolonged screen exposure creates the "wired-and-tired" brain simultaneous fast and slow brainwave activity leading to anxiety, poor focus, and depression. Dr. Leigh reveals how excessive screen time creates measurable brain dysfunction. Her solution: intentional balance and neurofeedback to restore optimal brainwave patterns. Recovery is possible at any age by replacing digital stimulation with real-world experiences. Don't let technology control you, learn to control it.

Listen to 124 Future Now Podcast I have known Drs. Stephen Sideroff and Hal Myers since I was an undergraduate at McGill University in the 1970’s, when Hal & I were in Stephen’s Psych class on designing the protocols for our various science experiments. Not just a student, Hal had just started a company called “Thought Technology,” and was designing equipment for monitoring and influencing human biosignals with one’s awareness, for better health. It was the dawn of bio/neuro feedback thinking in psychology and medicine, with Hal scribbling out schematics for new devices at his seat while Stephan taught us how best to test the effectiveness of our tech and ideas. Who would have guessed that the three of us would vacation together 50 years down the timeline, where Hal has 40 employess at Thought Tech, and Stephen is a professor at UCLA and  internationally recognized psychologist. His latest book is “The 9 Pillars of Resilience, The Proven Path to Master Stress, Slow Aging, and Increase Vitality.” Enjoy! Drs. Stephen Sideroff and Hal Myers on vacation on Myers Island
