Florentina Alden
The use of state shifts and deep states in the healing journey: A Neurofeedback and Hypnotherapy therapist’s perspective
State changes in our nervous system create a basis for a perspective shift and allow access to our core self and are therefore key to changing perception and behavior. What role does this play in therapy? Does a deep state have to be deep? What is the connection between state shifts and the activity of our central brain network activities? The talk provides insight into how we, as therapists, can understand the role of our neurofeedback tool in the overall concept of therapy.
