Dr. Randy Cale's latest Neuroshift episode, he explains neurofeedback as a treatment for OCD and anxiety. OCD often presents with frontal lobe dysregulation, which may require longer neurofeedback training compared to other anxiety disorders. However, patients typically experience some symptom relief within the initial weeks of treatment, providing reassurance of progress even if full resolution takes several months. This earl...
This episode of Neuroshifts highlights recent research indicating that depression is not primarily caused by a serotonin imbalance, explaining the limited effectiveness of long-term antidepressant use for some individuals. Instead, Dr. Cale focuses on brain activity patterns, specifically an "Alpha asymmetry" observed in client brain maps. He explains that this imbalance, often developing over years, correlates with the e...

Well, there's some complicated, long answers, but let me give the short answer in this episode of Neuroshift.
Dr. Randy Cale explains how and why pets improve our mood by shifting our focus. Concentrating on negative aspects of life worsens our feelings, while directing attention towards something positive, like a pet, generates better emotions. Dr. Cale suggests that our past positive experiences with animals contribute to this rapid mood elevation. Interacting with pets as a way to alleviate negative feelings by redirecting attention an...
