By your own inner direction may you continue to find your greatest waking potential.

This session is suitable and recommended for repeated listening, and regular listening will help compound positive suggestions and / or your own positive results.

The end of this session will provide options for either drifting into a sound night's sleep, or for returning to your fully conscious, awake and alert, positive mind state.

ADHD symptoms, concerns increase during COVID-19 pandemic

Homes have transformed into work and school spaces, and there’s a new concern on how it’s impacting children.

https://medbusiness.net/adhd-symptoms-concerns-increase-during-covid-19-pandemic/

This episode serves as a sort of “Dopamine Masterclass”. I discuss the immensely powerful chemical that we all make in our brain and body: dopamine. I describe what it does and the neural circuits involved. I explain dopamine peaks and baselines, and the cell biology of dopamine depletion. I include 14 tools for how to control your dopamine release for sake of motivation, focus, avoiding and combating addiction and depression, and I explain why dopamine stacking with chemicals and behaviors inevitably leads to states of underwhelm and poor performance. I explain how to achieve sustained increases in baseline dopamine, compounds that injure and protect dopamine neurons including caffeine from specific sources. I describe non-prescription supplements for increasing dopamine—both their benefits and risks—and synergy of pro-dopamine supplements with those that increase acetylcholine.

Pandemic magnifying ADHD symptoms, pediatricians say | Family Focus

O’Neill is like most parents struggling to teach their kids at home during the pandemic. She didn’t realize at first that some of her frustration was due to an underlying condition in her youngest child.

O’Neill explains, “You can tell, the wheels have been turning, you can see the ideas coming in her head and it’s taking away from school work.”

O’Neill’s daughter was diagnosed with ADHD. Experts believe that the pandemic has exacerbated symptoms.

Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is a brain disorder that creates faulty and inaccurate perceptions about your appearance. Some people can have delusional beliefs which make it appear that the flaws you see in your body are correct.

This is the criteria according to the Diagnostic and Statistic Manual of Mental Disorders 5th Edition.

Preoccupation with perceived flaws or defects in physical appearance.

Repetitive behaviors are performed in response to appearance concerns.

Preoccupation can cause distress or impairment in important functions such as social, occupational, and other areas.

Concerns about body fat and weight are not better explanations for preoccupations in individuals with eating disorders.

About 2% of people start experiencing this problem during childhood, adolescence or early adulthood. The head or face is the most common area of concern. Head concerns things such as insisting that your ears are too big or misaligned.

This video will discuss a case of body dysmorphic disorder and provide examples to illustrate the criteria.

Because of your obsession with having a body flaw and the rituals and behavior you engage in, body dysmorphic disorder can be grouped with obsessive compulsive disorders. The treatment of this disorder is similar as OCD. It involves a combination medication and cognitive behavior therapy.

ADHD in children can be a difficult thing to manage, but medications and drugs are not the answer. Discover Drake Institute's drug-free treatment options for children at t

The Drake Institute has been a worldwide leader in the non drug treatment of children and adults since 1980. David F. Velkoff, M.D., our Medical Director and co-founder, supervises all evaluation procedures and treatment programs. Dr. Velkoff earned his Masters degree in Psychology from the California State University at Los Angeles in 1975, and his Doctor of Medicine degree from Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta in 1976. Dr. Velkoff completed his postgraduate work on Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of California Medical Center at Irvine. He then shifted his specialty to Behavioral Medicine and underwent training at the Menninger Clinic in Topeka, Kansas to learn biofeedback technology. In 1980, he co-founded the Drake Institute of Behavioral Medicine.

Seeking to better understand the link between illness and the mind, Dr. Velkoff served as the clinical director of an international research study on psychoneuroimmunology with the UCLA Medical School Department of Microbiology and Immunology, and the Pasteur Institute in Paris.

Dr. Velkoff was a founding associate editor of the scientific publication, Journal of Neurotherapy.

Drake Institute Reviews

Just wanted to update our situation. After contacting Dr. Velkoff and meeting with him he is genuine in getting his patient the help that they need. He is providing additional treatment and assessment at no additional cost. I guess what has happened our PC did not coordinate our concerns with the Doctor in a timely matter. We are please for the efforts and Dr. V being genuine He even gave his personal cell phone to reach him directly if we don't hear back from our PC. Overall we are happy that our child is getting the proper care now. There must be a reason why his clinic is super busy all the time.

I have a friend that has had her son being treated by this facility and wow can I see a difference! He used to "show off" all the time, always getting into something when she wasn't looking and throwing temper tantrums. She absolutely did not want to put him on any drugs. After just a couple weeks of starting treatments he started improving, not all at once, but you could see him thinking through his actions a little more and generally just starting to calm down and communicate better. TO see him behave now versus how he acted before neurofeedback treatments is like day compared to night. The more I learn about Neurofeedback the less I want to see kids with ADD and ADHD on drugs - What great results I have seen from this facility!
