Neurofeedback teaches your brain to regulate your brainwaves so that you can achieve the desired brainwave state. Inhibiting certain brainwave frequencies and enhancing others is usually done by placing electrodes on the head and then providing immediate feedback about the brain's activity. For example, imagine you're playing a racing game. Before you begin, you place sensors on your head – these will help monitor your brainwave activity. Once the race is on, your performance in the game is reliant on your ability to focus or stay calm. The better your concentration, the stronger your brainwaves that indicate concentration, and the faster you go. This means that you're training your brain to view intense focus or increased calm as something rewarding, strengthening the synaptic connections between neurons and increasing your ability to pay attention. As a result, with practice and consistency, your brain will learn to associate the target brain activity with the reward, thereby regulating it to be in an optimal state – to improve focus, reduce stress and anxiety, and overall wellbeing.

Myndlift is a subscription-based service. During your Core Training, you will have monthly consultations with your assigned Neuro Coach. After that, you can choose to switch to the Continuity Training plan which costs less and does not include Neuro Coach supervision (Neuro Coach consultations can be scheduled at an additional charge). Your subscription starts when you complete your first assessment, or 21 days after your order is placed, whichever comes first.

Myndlift supports Original Muse (2016 model: MU-02), Muse 2 (model: MU-03) and Muse S. Please see this article for more information.

All Myndlift Neuro Coaches are licensed mental health practitioners and have years of experience in providing in-clinic and remote neurofeedback therapy. Your Neuro Coach is experienced in understanding what you want to achieve and developing an individualized training program to give you maximum benefit. Having a neurofeedback expert supervise your training is critical, and we cannot offer Myndlift without it. The Neuro Coach defines a personalized neurofeedback protocol in line with your training goals. Although the Myndlift app automatically adjusts the level of difficulty to keep your training engaging, a professional is needed to track your progress and ensure that you are training with the most appropriate protocol. There are a variety of neurofeedback (EEG biofeedback) protocols that differ in key ways (e.g., frequency band, electrode location), and the Neuro Coach has the expertise to select the best protocol for you and monitor change over time.

No, Myndlift includes a brain-sensing qEEG assessment. Based on the results, your assigned Neuro Coach will review your goals and design a personalized neurofeedback training protocol. During your appointment, they will explain the process and deploy the protocol directly to your account.

Yes. You can add family members at a reduced rate starting at $21 USD per week. This option will automatically be available after completing your registration.

The Continuity plan is more cost effective because it does not include Neuro Coaching, and is available only after you’ve been on Core for at least 3 months. The first few months are critical to the success of the training - that’s why the Core plan includes Neuro Coach consultations and more intensive guidance to help you get the most out of this initial period.

To ensure that you get the most out of your training, only your Neuro Coach can make changes to your training protocol. If you wish to make a change, you can always request the change in a message to your Neuro Coach via the app. The Neuro Coach may make certain changes (e.g., session duration, number of sessions) right away, but other changes (e.g., frequency bands trained, location of the auxiliary electrode) may require a consultation so that the Neuro Coach can discuss the requested change with you.

A Neuro Coach consultation is an online video call or a phone call booked by you directly via the Myndlift app.The Core Training plan includes monthly Neuro Coach consultations. During the first consultation, the Neuro Coach will review your goals with you and deploy a neurofeedback protocol accordingly. After that, the consultations are for the Neuro Coach to review your training progress with you.After your Core Training, you can choose to switch to the Continuity Training plan, which does not include Neuro Coach consultations.If you wish to schedule additional Neuro Coach consultations, these cost $75 USD for a 20-minute consultation.

According to a recent neurofeedback review, the success rate of neurofeedback is 70%, meaning that 70% of neurofeedback participants can learn how to self-regulate their brain activity successfully.

Neurofeedback training may include mild side effects that don't last for too long. For example, you may feel a similar mental fatigue level when learning a complex cognitive skill or after speaking in a non-native language. Still, these feelings are temporary and usually don't last long.

Many individuals begin to feel the benefits of neurofeedback in 3-4 weeks or 6-8 neurofeedback sessions and continue to do so after the sessions have stopped. How many neurofeedback sessions it takes to notice progress depends on a number of factors, including your motivation and goals, as well as the duration and severity of the problem. It’s recommended to follow through with a minimum of two months of training in order to achieve optimal, long-term results.
