Suffer from ADHD?
LENS neurofeedback can help create retreat-like conditions in your mind.
FDA-certified LENS neurofeedback may increase Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) in the way that far more intensive treatments (like ECT or rTMS) do; however, the LENS EEG output is a trillion times less invasive than your cellphone rendering it a safer treatment.
Increasing BDNF increases the production of serotonin, norepinephrine and dopamine, which assists in boosting your mood, decreasing anxiety and improving concentration and focus.
If you are done with the struggle and are ready to create real change in your life, give yourself the gift of exploring this tandem approach.
