Cancer Patient’s Experience…

This week, I heard from a neurofeedback client I had worked with a few years ago for anxiety who now has cancer and has been going through an extremely difficult time.  Receiving radiation treatments is never easy, and on top if it, he has been having panic attacks, mostly in the middle of the night. The panic is a repercussion of overload that he is dealing with, a relief valve of sorts. And it is a healthy mechanism for maintaining equilibrium in his system, but certainly not pleasant at all.   So he called to ask if I could help.

 

Brain Freeze…

Sharon Begley’s article in the March 7, 2011 Newsweek magazine says it all: “How the deluge of information paralyzes our ability to make good decisions”!

This is what I am seeing from clients, many of them children.  People are contacting me because they or their children are overwhelmed in work and at school and in life in general.  This overwhelm, known as unresolved stress, is causing them to behave in ways that do not make for successful outcomes.  When we become overloaded, our systems can at times go a little ‘haywire’, it appears at first sight, though our Central Nervous System is actually behaving as designed in an intelligent way in order to keep us from blowing up or burning out.
