One Careless Moment by Dave Hugelschaffer My rating: 2 of 5 stars The back story made the first book in the series interesting, and though there was a bit of an emotional disconnect between reader and characters, the emotionality of the back story gave the book a little bit of depth. That back story isn’t…

LORETA After A Record-Breaking Storm
I broke the 190 barrier! Woot! Phew. Every so often, my LORETA neurofeedback trainer mentions that when I reach 190 consistently for each five-minute screen, they'll drop the z-score from its current 2.1 to 1.9 or thereabouts. In other words, reaching 190 consistently means I am ready to train at a harder level. At the…
A New Protocol for the Next Phase of LORETA Neurofeedback
This week, the new protocol for my LORETA neurofeedback began. Since April, the protocol was based on the symptoms I’d listed as being at a 10, the worst ones of all my symptoms. This time, it was based on my top six symptoms, not all the ones rated at 10, and on the working memory…
Review: Day into Night
Day into Night by Dave Hugelschaffer My rating: 4 of 5 stars I’m not exactly sure how to rate this book. This is definitely one of those times when half stars would come in handy! Perhaps it’s more 3.5 than 4… I don’t remember how I ended up with this ebook in my Kobo app,…

LORETA #11: Progress Check and Review
Session 11: time to check my progress and do something a little different. The progress check comprised about ten minutes of the LORETA software simply reading my brainwaves. It's boring staring at the little green light at the bottom of the monitor for 12 minutes while reminding yourself to relax the jaw and shoulders, but…
A LORETA Setback . . . Maybe
Last week, I had an average day at LORETA neurofeedback, that is, I achieved a string of scores like most others have. An uptick from the first screen to the second, then down down down. Sigh. At least I ended in the same place as the previous session; doing that required a Herculean effort to…
