Brain Performance Series

Brain Performance Series Level 2

The Brain Integration Program Level 2 — Intended for use after 3 months of listening to Level 1, Listening Foundation Program.

This program is designed to enhance brain function, which is the ultimate aim of Sound Therapy. Good brain integration enables us to optimize our abilities in order to handle life’s demands effectively and maintain a positive and productive state of mind. The Brain Performance series is precisely designed to nurture and strengthen all of these aspects that comprise our neural responses. Sound Therapy has tremendous potential in the cognitive realm. Using this program not only enhances our cognitive capacity, it improves our ability to use and integrate all of our sensory systems. It is also relevant to enhancing hearing, and resolving tinnitus, as the process of hearing and the occurrence of tinnitus are largely happening in the brain itself.

How to integrate this program with the Natural Hearing Improvement Series

For those who have ear related problems, the process may begin with treating these by following the Natural Hearing Improvement Series. The ear is the more simple, mechanical part of the system. The brain being the neurological part is more complex. Where there are ear problems, it’s best to work on the gross, motor, physical element first. Then move to fine tuning the more subtle aspects of our functioning. For some tinnitus sufferers, calming the mind is an essential part of recovery. Therefore this program may be an ideal next step in the recovery process, after using the Ear Brain Connections Level 2 program.

The Sontegrity Sound Therapy player is light, convenient and durable, and specially engineered to deliver the Sound Therapy high frequency spectrum. It comes preloaded with six hours of progressively filtered Sound Therapy music. The unique activation and filtering of the music, based on the ground breaking techniques developed by Dr Tomatis, delivers a powerful therapeutic program for the ears and brain.

A journey of brain optimisation

Brain integration is about enabling all of the different aspects of brain performance to work together to facilitate our daily functioning. Our senses allow us to make ‘sense’ of the world, but only if they communicate smoothly with each other. Our senses must work together to do an effective job. Together, they provide the brain with a menu of balanced stimuli. The brain that is nourished with a well balanced menu of many varied senses, operates well.

Over 80% of the nervous system is involved in the reception, integration and processing of sensory information. The primary role of the brain is to be a sensory-processing machine. Inefficient sensory integration is like a traffic jam in the brain. Whether you are a high performing individual seeking peak performance, or someone who has suffered delays or damage to some of your cognitive function, this program can be an important part of your recovery and performance enhancement.

The Brain Integration Program is designed to:

• • Achieve a calm and focused mind- also assisting to reduce tinnitus
  • Integrate processing between the right and left brain hemispheres
  • Train and remap brain pathways for better mental and cognitive function

Album 1: Calm Mind
Mozart Pianos Concertos, Mozart Divertimento
This album is recorded with the Electronic Ear only. It is safe for those with sensitive hearing and allows you to relax during ear training.

Album 2: Focus
Handel Sonatas for Wind Instruments
In this album the Electronic Ear is progressively increasing its reach. The difference between the two channels gradually widens, training the ear to gradually increase its range of focus.

Album 3: Right Left Integration
Mozart Pianos Concertos
Building the Corpus Callosum. Tomatis taught us that the right ear must lead for our listening and language processing to be most effective. Crossing the divide helps different brain systems and language processes to work better.

Album 4: Tonotopic training
Bach Trios, Bach Quintet, Handel Sonatas for Recorder and Oboe
Training the auditory cortex to fill in the gaps. Progresses from 400Hz to 8kHz

Album 5: Neural remapping.
Mozart String Quintets, Mozart Divertimento
Expanding the spectrum of frequencies and spectrum of decibels, this album sequentially extends attention to all areas of the auditory neural map. The switching between the high and low channels is quite pronounced. This is to stimulate different parts of the brain and the auditory pathways in the brain into responding.

Album 6: In the Zone
Haydn Symphony, Handel Grand Concertos
This highly filtered album helps your mind to become calm, focused, alert and relaxed. Let it wash over you. Don’t worry if you can’t hear it all the time, especially in the first half of the album. Keep the volume low.

Workbook for Brain Integration
The Brain Integration Workbook will introduce specific cognitive training exercises to further enhance our processing of sensory inputs for best neural performance. When used in conjunction with the listening program, these processes can bring about significant change in your life. Following this program and using all the tools, will give you the best possible opportunity to enhance and protect your brain performance going forward.

Listener Support Program for Brain Integration
When you embark on a new Sound Therapy program it is helpful to have additional listening tips and reminders along the way. Our Brain Integration Listener Support Program delivers emails for your first three months, tailored to the issues and questions usually experienced by people on this program.

Brain Integration is a complex retraining process which can be enhanced by a variety of techniques. The interactive processes presented at the right stage of your listening will assist these important changes. This program keeps you linked in with the different treatment options and supportive exercises you can do. It introduces other forms of mental and linguistic stimulation to further enhance your Sound Therapy listening.

If you have any concerns or questions you are also welcome to call and speak to one of our Qualified Health Consultants at any time during your Listener Support Program.
