EARLY REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN
The Biofeedback Society of Florida (BSF) is excited to announce its mid-year, two-day workshop, Optimal health and performance (for everyone) with biofeedback and neurofeedback presented by world renowned performance enhancement expert, Vietta "Sue" Wilson, Ph.D. Considered by many to be the "grandmother" of neurofeedback and biofeedback in sport, Dr. Wilson has dedicated much of her career to researching the connection between stress and its effect on physical health and mental performance. Her particular expertise is in the teaching of brief skills validated by psychophysiology to allow individuals to perform to their capabilities.
Dr. Wilson retired in 2005 from York University’s School of Kinesiology and Health Sciences in Toronto after 30 years of teaching and research in sport psychology, learned self-regulation, and counseling. She has worked with over 50 world and Olympic athletes from competitors in the 1976 Olympiad in Montreal to those in the Rio games in 2016. She has also utilized her unique performance optimizing methods with top executives, performers, and other individuals who want to improve focus, minimize distractions, and reduce stress. Dr. Wilson is known for her research in psychophysiological profiling and EEG brain mapping of elite performers and is a co-author of Learned Self Regulation, Owners Manual for the Brain and Body. She also developed the popular Optimizing Performance and Health Suite software platform for the BioGraph Infiniti instrument.
Workshop Description
Dr. Wilson has planned this workshop to be interactive, with ample opportunity for demonstrations and discussion. The program will explore how biofeedback and neurofeedback are beneficial for optimal performance, and different from traditional sport psychology interventions as related to goals, models, and responsibilities. Dr. Wilson will discuss how brief, deep, self-regulation skills complement biofeedback and neurofeedback methods for optimal performance. She will also demonstrate the use of protocols for assessment and training contained in the Optimizing Performance and Health software. The workshop will provide detailed information about the Learned Self-Regulation Skill that includes training of SMR, alpha, HRV, TEMP, sEMG, and EDA for increasing focus and quieting the busy brain, autogenic and other cognitive methods, and home training. The course will also review some of Dr. Wilson’s signature contributions to the science of optimal health and performance including psychophysiological profiling and EEG brain mapping of elite performers and psychophysiological methods for validating skills training.
