How it works
: The ThoughtStream™ measures the tiny changes
in your skin resistance values which are associated
with shifts in your mood, mental state and level of
arousal. It can work with or without being connected
to your computer. The information it measures is fed
back to you in real time on its unique four-color
display and audio output. (headphones) These signals
can also be sent via the computer interface for use
with the Mental Games software. It analyzes these
signals so that you can control what happens
on-screen.
Mental Games

training.

mental clarity.

More about Biofeedback
Biofeedback is a process in which a person
learns to consciously control physiological processes that are
not ordinarily under voluntary control. It has long been
accepted as one of the most effective tools available for the
control of stress and personal growth.
The patterns of our response to emergencies
probably emerged during the time when all humans
faced actual physical threats to their survival.
Although the "threats" we now live with are
seldom physical, the body still reacts as if
they were.
Actual and perceived stressful events can
produce strong emotions, which arouse certain
physical responses from the sympathetic nervous
system - the network of nerve tissues that helps
prepare the body to meet emergencies by "flight
or fight." Some of us are more sensitive
to the flight-or-fight response than others.
When we sense danger, our bodies release stress
hormones, and our heart rate, blood pressure,
and muscle tension increase. While this response
is useful when we really are in danger and need
to respond, it can be a problem if we do not
learn how to respond to ordinary stresses in a
healthy way and can lead to feeling chronically
"stressed."
Behavior, thoughts, and feelings influence our
whole mind/body system. Individual physical
responses to stress can become habitual. When
the body is repeatedly aroused, one or more
functions may become permanently overactive.
Tiny fluctuations in skin moisture associated
with emotional states, stress and the degree of
arousal will actually change the skin's
electrical resistance, this is your Galvanic
Skin Response (GSR).
The ThoughtStream™ measures Galvanic Skin
Response (GSR) via a compact palm sensor
and presents these changes to you by both audio
and visual means. You learn to lower the pitch
of a sound heard through headphones or make the
LED's on the display console turn from red to
green. For more comprehensive training use the
included Mental Games multimedia software to
fine-tune your ability to relax and focus at the
same time.
Simple and effective, your
ThoughtStream™
personal biofeedback system teaches you how to
control your responses to stress.
Become more aware of your responses, and you can
be more comfortable and in control - you can
learn to change inappropriate reactions, be more
relaxed and productive.
