What is Cereset® Research?
Cereset is short for “cerebral reset.” Cereset® Research or CR for short, is an advanced, non-invasive neurotechnology that supports the brain to release and recover from the negative effects of stress; the responses to threat or trauma, whether physical or non-physical (Cereset, LLC, Scottsdale, AZ). Cereset sessions create an opportunity for your brain to balance and quiet its own electrical pattern. Sensors that continuously observe your brain activity, allow the computer to assign an auditory tone to dominant brain frequencies, in near real time. The tones are echoed back through ear buds, and reflect the brainwave activity at that moment in time. Each session will be entirely unique to your brain. By allowing your brain to look at itself in an acoustic mirror, it is supported to harmonize, quiet, and balance itself during sessions.
Background
The brain is the organ of central command. When faced with threat or trauma, whether physical or non-physical, real or imagined, the brain activates and manages how the body responds to protect itself. The autonomic nervous system (ANS) facilitates the body’s natural survival responses to threat or trauma (stress responses). The two main ANS components involved in the stress response are the sympathetic (fight or flight), and parasympathetic (freeze, numb, or withdraw). Typically, people go through life relatively balanced in mildly parasympathetic, rest and digest state. When faced with an acute stress, the sympathetic (fight of flight) system is activated. When there is a perception that the threat is overwhelming, or response futile, the parasympathetic (freeze or withdraw) system is activated.
