Improve your outlook on life with biofeedback

We all want to be happy, but sometimes being happy is not as easy as it seems. Techniques like biofeedback can help improve a person’s happiness level, and give them a positive outlook on life. The International Society for Neurofeedback and Research Task Force found in 2002 that technique was effective in improving a number of conditions.

Biofeedback As An Aid

“Biofeedback is not common, and that’s a shame,” agrees Carol Austad, PhD, a psychologist at Central Connecticut State University.

“As an adjunctive aid to psychotherapy, it’s fantastic,” she adds. “The patient feels as though they have control over their own bodily functions. When they have that feeling of mastery, you can accomplish more in psychotherapy.”

Vitamin Rich Foods can Decrease Chances of Depression and Anxiety

Some days may seem more stressful than others, triggering panic attacks or even feelings of sullenness. Did you know that simply eating vitamin rich foods could reduce these feelings? Oftentimes, depression and anxiety go hand in hand. This deficiency usually stems from a lack of B vitamins; including B12 and folic acid. It is easy to come across, as diets vary. Eating foods like pork, chicken, leafy greens, eggs and even citrus fruits can increase your body’s level of B vitamins, warding off anxiety and keeping depression at bay. It is much simpler, and less invasive, to eat differently than it is to get vitamin injections.

Diet energy drinks and brain fitness

The energy drink industry has millions of people convinced that by chugging one of their diet drinks (with Aspartame) you get that boost you’re seeking plus keep weight gain to a minimum.

Did you know that Aspartame is an excitatory neurotoxin? That means it’s toxic to your brain in a “spaz out” kind of way. Also, studies have proven that people do not lose weight as a result of consuming artificial sweeteners; in fact, the brain senses sweetness on the tongue, which then signals the pancreas to secrete insulin.  When there are no carbohydrates in the bloodstream to break down, the brain signals the appetite center to crave food for the insulin to work on; hence consumption of unwanted carbohydrates typically follows anyway.
