Brain Health Interventions

Older participants improved on a working-memory task after stimulation. A Boston University study synchronized brainwave patterns in older adults using calibrated electrical stimulation. Disrupting synchrony in younger participants worsened working memory. Higher brain voltage is not presented as universally desirable. Electrical stimulation is described as potentially meaningful but capable of causing harm if used inappropriately. Neurofeedback at 40 Years of Zen is described as a way to help people learn to increase low brain voltage.
