Medicine Mind, Inc.

What to expect

Be heard

Expect thorough, unhurried listening. First, an in-depth health history and goal setting. Next, baseline measurements of breath, heart rate, muscle tension, health behaviors. Finally, a tailored program for clinic and home. Weekly sessions taper to monthly, systematically.

Discover patterns

Link your goals to the science and behaviors that get you there. Your mind-body interactions are displayed instantaneously under skillful guidance to control breath, muscles, and attentional tasks. See and feel patterns of pain, stress, fatigue, mood, and sleep shift and become workable.

Take charge

Embrace self-care fully. I guide, inspire, inform, leverage the science, but you do the work. Together, we celebrate the realizations and results. Daily home practices are all enjoyable, doable, targeted, tracked. It is wonderful to gain such insight and power.

See results

Scientific measurements track progress, and inspire confidence. Clearly, success is proportional to practice—in the clinic and at home. There's no substitute for practice. This is the power of self-regulation via biofeedback and mind training. I provide all practices, and may recommend add'l equipment.

Expand applications

Make discoveries that will apply to all of life: work, love, play, family, spirit, medicine. Everything we do is based on universal patterns of health, homeostasis, Nature, mind, wisdom, and compassion. These basic patterns are real and practical forces to be harnessed. Prepare to celebrate them, and see applications everywhere.

Biofeedback • Neurofeedback • Contemplative Science

We do behavior change, from the inside out.

Contemplative Biofeedback™ is the basis of all we do. It seamlessly integrates evidence-based neuroscience with ancient contemplative science (e.g., meditation). It's evidence-based, practical, and affordable. It delivers lifelong skills in self-regulation—naturally and painlessly.

It's the missing piece in self-care beyond drugs, surgery, or talk therapy. It's about putting you in direct control of your body and mind reactions—systematically. It's about finally getting the Operator's Manual for that amazing natural phenomenon we call YOU!

Biofeedback & Neurofeedback

Western medicine's best solution for stress-related mind-body disorders. Habitual body reactions are revealed by medical sensors in real-time. Precise, compassionate coaching allows control of subtle breath, heart, muscle, and brain responses that underlie stress, pain, and 'busy-brain.'

Health Coaching & Advocacy

It's overwhelming to face the medical system alone. It's wonderful to find an empathetic, savvy advocate with insider experience. We founded our clinic to do medicine better. Our clients get the advice, advocacy, and referrals needed to make good medicine.

Physical Tracking, Real-time Displays

Bio/Neurofeedback is "sense and display" technology. Like a dashboard for tracking body-mind shifts. We 'connect the dots' between sensor changes and thoughts/feelings. You witness the sensitivity of your brain, heart, muscles, and breath. Then you learn control—for life.

Contemplative Training, Authentically Taught

So much more than 'mindfulness,' Contemplative Biofeedback™ accelerates self-regulation by integrating the most ancient—and still the most powerful—trainings in self-awareness. You already do this naturally, but targeted training takes it to the next level: a daily, progressive skill.

Individualized, Compassionate, Focused, Heart-warming

Motivation can initiate change, but only relationships sustain it. Personalized health coaching means you're seen, safe, and empowered. There's nothing cold or clinical about us. Our science is sound, but we access the human heart and mind. Expect clarity, warmth, and compassion here—but feel free to ask about the science!
