Mental Games is a radical new concept in personal biofeedback training.

With it you can learn how to:

• Quickly shift from relaxed to highly focused states of mind/body integration and back again
• "Fine-tune" your ability to pay close attention to selected tasks
• Stay calm in difficult/stressful situations
• Achieve sustained states of Zen-like mental clarity
• Plus much more!

This page introduces some of the many training modules included with the two levels in this package. Manuals (PDF format) are available for download.

The current package ships with Levels 1 (Progressive Biofeedback Training) and 2 ("Sensomotoric", or mind/body integration). Future modules will include a Personal Database and Levels 3 (Emotional Integration), 4 (Abstract Reasoning), 5 (Mental Design), 6 (Meta-Mental) and 7 (Trans-Mental).

Mental Games Level Two

The program has much more depth and complexity than we can convey here, with multiple difficulty levels and a range of additional parameters you can select. We think the interface, with its post-Bauhaus frame of cool, geometrical symbols to be one of the most original we've seen. What we haven't shown are the "net games", which require the Internet to access, or the fact that you can add custom games to the interface.

Digits. Click on each number in sequence. This one really sharpens your attention and ability to separate meaningful information from "clutter". Three levels of difficulty.	Music Plot. Three different ways to control music with your thoughts and feelings, while watching the results being graphed! Learn to connect to your inner states with aural perception and expand your understanding of mind/body interaction.
Insects. A full-blown video game with a twist: all those little ants running around at different speeds must be converted to ladybugs! Insects is designed to enhance your spacial processing skills. Three levels of difficulty.	Focus. This amazing set of exercises helps calibrate and expand your peripheral vision and ability to perceive fast, transient events. We find it totally engrossing, and the more difficult levels are fiendishly engrossing!
Raindrops. Catch as many falling drops as you can--and it can rain pretty hard! Integrates eye/hand coorination with perception of vertical motion. Three skill levels.	Mandalas. You're making those concentric rings rotate--in opposite directions. Three mandalas and eight fantastic ambient sountracks, selected via those little colored balls on the sides. Perfect means to achieve tranquil, meditative states of consciousness.
