The ThoughtStream is the world's first complete personal biofeedback training system. Biofeedback allows you to see, feel or hear mind/body
processes that we normally aren't consciously aware of or able to voluntarily control. It has long been accepted as one of the most effective
tools available for stress control and other personal growth benefits. In the past, biofeedback was something only available by visiting a
professional with hourly rates or by purchasing very expensive clinical models. The ThoughtStream is a galvonic skin response (GSR) biofeedback
training system that you can use at home.
The stress we experience at home and at work has a large impact on our well-being, but our normal methods of responding to stressful
events are habits that can be changed after we become more aware of them. Learning to fully relax while under pressure can have a
profoundly beneficial influence on all aspects of life. The Thoughtstream can give you a new level of self-understanding when your
responses are seen or heard as they happen.
How it works
Biofeedback allows you to see, feel or hear mind/body processes that we normally aren't consciously aware of or able to voluntarily control.
The ThoughtStream uses a galvonic skin response (GSR) sensor worn on the palm of your hand to record information about your physiological
processes. Tiny changes in your skin resistance values are processed from the sensor multiple times per second. These measurements of your
mood, emotional responses and mental state are then fed back to you through sound, console display, or computer software.
A typical session example:
Stay still and relax while wearing the sensor - use the headphones if you'd also like sound feedback. Keep the ThoughtStream
console display within sight. After a few minutes pass, you might begin to notice the display lights making occasional movements
into red, followed by a slowly moving shift back above orange. The time that these color shifts occur make it easy for you to become
aware of patterns of thought and feeling that may be causing you stress. The same method is used for training yourself to have more
positive responses.
The effect that these unconscious patterns have on us no longer have the same control over how we feel when we become aware of them.
Much of the stress that we feel every day is only the pressure we feel when these negative emotional patterns are outside of our awareness.
The pressure is reduced after it is known, then released because we can now respond to it consciously.
