NeuroNoodle Network Podcast: Neurofeedback & Wellness Podcast "Forty Years of Zen Is a Mirage" | NeuroNoodle Neurofeedback Therapy Podcast
Jay Gunkelman (500K+ brain scans) and Pete Jansons dig into one of the biggest claims in alpha training — can a week of intensive brain training replace 40 years of Zen practice? Jay explains exactly why that's a mirage, and why brain state and content are not the same thing.From Granger causality and referencing debates to coherence vs. amplitude sequencing, deep brain reorienting for PTSD, and whether neurofeedback can raise IQ — another deep dive with the panel that doesn't gatekeep.🎙️ Panel: Jay Gunkelman (500K+ brain scans) + Pete Jansons (Host)🧠 What You'll Learn:🧘 "Forty Years of Zen Is a Mirage" — alpha state vs. Zen content📡 Granger causality — does Laplacian referencing ruin your EEG?🧠 Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR) — when neurofeedback can't reach the trauma🔁 Coherence vs. amplitude training — which order matters and why📈 Can neurofeedback raise IQ?
