Summary
In this fascinating interview you'll hear about the amazing current technology known as Neurofeedback. This technology whilst certainly by no means “new” is still only just in its infancy, and we discuss some of the exciting and life changing applications that this technology can provide for both healing and personal growth. Jonathan Banks with his several decades of experience in the field also shares some of his stories relating to how this tech has powerfully transformed not only his own life, but the lives of those who he's been fortunate enough to share it with. We also discuss where this technology is heading in the future, and the implications this has for the entire human race.
