It happened again… summer flew by and suddenly, it’s August. For all parents, you know this means a new school year is right around the corner. After weeks/months of relaxed routines, unstructured days, no homework, and probably more screen time than we’d like, the back-to-school transition can be tough for kids.

That’s why we created our Summer Brain Boost program: to help children of all ages prep their minds and brains for a strong start to the new academic season. It’s a highly personalized protocol, customized for each child, to target improvement in areas like attention/focus, self-regulation, cognitive functions, sleep, anxiety, depression, stress, and more. In short, this is an opportunity to nurture and guide your child’s brain development in a positive direction.

Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is a common form of memory decline, often affecting attention, recall, and executive function in older adults. While some cases progress to Alzheimer’s disease, early detection and intervention can help manage symptoms and support brain health.

At Brain Resource Center, we use advanced brain mapping (qEEG) and cognitive screening to identify areas of concern. Our personalised treatment combines neurofeedback, neuromodulation, lifestyle changes, and cognitive behavioural therapy to improve cognition and promote neuroplasticity — helping the brain to form new connections and maintain function.

If you or a loved one is experiencing memory difficulties, early assessment is key. Schedule your intake appointment with Dr Fallahpour today.

Stress is an unavoidable part of life. We all experience it—but many don’t realize just how deeply it impacts the brain and body.

By understanding how stress shows up, you can take meaningful steps to manage it and protect your long-term health. Here are five surprising effects of chronic stress—and what you can do about them:

🧠 1. Stress Can Shrink Your Brain
Chronic stress reduces the size of areas like the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex, which are crucial for memory, emotional regulation, and clear thinking. High cortisol levels over time can damage and reduce brain volume.

🛡️ 2. Stress Can Weaken Your Immune System
Stress hormones suppress immune cell function, making you more vulnerable to infections and slowing recovery. Ever notice you get sick more often when you’re stressed? That’s why.

🧬 3. Stress Can Alter Your DNA
Through a process called epigenetics, chronic stress can shorten telomeres—the protective caps on chromosomes. Shorter telomeres are linked to faster aging, higher disease risk, and shorter lifespan.

🌱 4. Stress Can Disrupt Your Gut Health
Because of the gut-brain axis, stress can harm your digestive system, reduce microbiome diversity, interfere with nutrient absorption, and cause gastrointestinal issues.

👁️ 5. Stress Can Affect Your Senses
Stress can heighten or dull your senses. Some people notice reduced taste and smell or increased sensitivity to light and sound. It can also change how the brain processes pain.

But before you stress about stress (we know, it’s ironic!), here are a few ways to reduce its impact:

✅ Laugh More – Genuine laughter lowers cortisol, releases endorphins, and boosts immunity.

✅ Build a Support Network – Connection reduces stress hormones and promotes calm and belonging.

✅ Try Neurofeedback at Brain Resource Center – A non-invasive way to train your brain to self-regulate, improve emotional control, and reduce stress-related symptoms.

Music is more than art—it’s a powerful therapeutic tool. Research shows music can positively change brain activity, influence mood and emotions, and even affect brainwave patterns.

How are music and mental health linked?
Engaging with music—listening, creating, or playing—can promote well-being, strengthen social connections, and support emotional stability. It’s widely used in psychotherapy for mood regulation, trauma recovery, and managing mental health conditions.

Recent advances even show benefits from listening to specific frequencies. For example, studies suggest 15 Hz binaural beats can improve memory and cognitive function.

Music Intervention at Brain Resource Center
At Brain Resource Center, Dr Fallahpour combines neuroscience, qEEG, brain-computer interfaces, and music production to create music designed to influence brain and nervous system activity.

We integrate therapeutic music into various treatments, including neurofeedback. During neurofeedback sessions, music acts as a neuromodulator: it plays as a reward when the brain achieves optimal patterns, helping reinforce positive brainwave activity to address a range of symptoms and conditions.

“We create music with a precise, science-driven approach, rooted in neuroscience and psychoacoustic principles. Designed to integrate seamlessly with our brain training methodology, this music helps guide the brain into desired states while also serving as a reinforcing reward when those states are achieved.”
— Dr Fallahpour, Clinical Psychologist

⚡ Understanding and Treating Epilepsy

Supporting minds. Changing lives.

Seizures are sudden, uncontrolled bursts of electrical activity in the brain that can affect movement, awareness, emotions, and behaviour. Epilepsy is diagnosed when a person has two or more unprovoked seizures at least 24 hours apart.

🧠 Causes of epilepsy can include:
– Stroke
– Head injury
– Brain infections (e.g. meningitis)
– Or, in many cases, no identifiable cause

Changes in brain wiring or imbalances in neurotransmitters may play a key role. At the Brain Resource Center, we offer EEGs and brain scans as part of a thorough diagnostic process to understand brain function and seizure activity.

🔬 Neurofeedback therapy, a science-based, drug-free method, has been used to successfully treat epilepsy since the 1970s. It works by helping the brain reduce irregular electrical activity and strengthen patterns associated with greater stability.

✅ SMR (Sensorimotor Rhythm) Neurofeedback helps to:
– Train the brain to increase SMR activity
– Raise the seizure threshold
– Reduce frequency and severity of seizures
– Improve cognitive symptoms such as memory, attention, and brain fog

📍 Every brain is unique, and our approach is tailored to each individual to improve quality of life, reduce symptoms, and support long-term wellness.

How Does Neurofeedback Work?

Neurofeedback is a safe, non-invasive treatment that helps your brain learn to regulate itself for improved mental wellbeing.

Using a detailed brain map, we identify areas where your brain’s electrical activity is out of balance. During each session, electrodes placed on your head measure your brainwaves in real time.
You receive instant audio or visual feedback—like music or videos—that respond to your brain’s activity. When your brain produces healthy patterns, the feedback rewards it. If unhealthy patterns arise, the feedback pauses or changes.

This ongoing interaction trains your brain to adjust and create new, balanced neural pathways through neuroplasticity—your brain’s natural ability to rewire itself.

With consistent sessions, this process can reduce symptoms linked to anxiety, depression, ADHD, and more, helping you feel more balanced and focused.

Safe, medication-free, and personalised to your brain’s needs, neurofeedback offers a powerful path to better brain health.

🧠 Your Brain Is Unique — So Is Your Treatment

At the Brain Resource Center, we understand that no two brains are the same. Your brain activity is as unique as your fingerprint — which is why we don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to mental health care.

Instead, we create highly personalised treatment plans, tailored to your brain’s dynamics, cognitive function, daily routines, and personal goals.

Our evidence-based, multi-dimensional approach draws on neuroscience and health psychology to effectively treat a wide range of mood, cognitive, and neurological conditions.

Treatments we offer include:
🔹 Neurofeedback / Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) – non-invasive brain training to rebalance irregular activity
🔹 tDCS – gentle electrical stimulation to regulate brain function
🔹 Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) – addressing unhelpful thought patterns
🔹 Clinical Hypnosis – focused therapy for cognitive and emotional issues
🔹 rTMS – magnetic stimulation, often used in treatment-resistant depression
