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 early improvement is crucial for continued engagement in neurofeedback therapy.

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 emergence of mood disorders. Enjoy the episode!

The power to control our happiness lies entirely within our ability to choose what we focus on, not in external circumstances or other people's actions. We can rewire our brains away from judgment and negativity toward appreciation and joy through deliberate, consistent practice.

• Our emotional states determine how we perceive the world around us
• Research shows smiling activates brain patterns associated with ease and happiness
• Positive emotional states improve cognitive function, problem-solving, and relationships
• Happiness correlates with better health outcomes and longer life expectancy
• We've been trained by society to focus on judgment, disagreement, and negativity
• The brain builds strong neural pathways to misery through years of practice
• Happiness requires redirecting attention to what brings joy, beauty, and interest
• Building new neural pathways requires consistent practice and persistence
• You alone control your focus and therefore your emotional state

Focus your attention on aspects of life that naturally elevate your state, and practice this daily until it becomes your new default.
