Select the Free Options and read their descriptions to decide what you need. Explore and find which ones help you most. I have found it to be extra helpful to listen while meditating to amplify the effect of both.
Breath Pacers
Breath Pacers
These are helpful for working with RSA breathing, for support with calming the self when activated, and to use for focus meditations using counting and breath.
There are MANY products on the market that are designed to entrain your brain to specific brainwaves such as: Mind Alive; or Sensate to calm the Vagus Nerve and activation. These are all expensive and thus less accessible for many people.
The Law of Kindness
The Law of Kindness
Living by the Law of Kindness increases our connection with, and compassion for, ourselves and others. It helps you and it helps the world!
I highly recommend taking classes with the NMI, or at least, buying Dr. Tarrant's book in the link to the right.
Many courses can be used for Continuing Education Credits for Professionals.
This book by Dr. Jeff Tarrant, founder of the NeuroMeditation Institute, is one you will want to have if you are interested in the brain, brain based interventions, or how to use these practices for yourself or with clients.
For issues that are less severe, and do not require a therapist, I strongly recommend working with these two INCREDIBLE and amazing women. They offer a WEALTH of knowledge, insight and resources to assist you in finding the right tools for YOU and your goals.
Psychedelic Therapy
The RADICAL change I experienced with Spravato
The RADICAL change I experienced with Spravato
There were many things which helped me to survive my experience. However, the thing that changed things THE MOST, and in the most profound way, was Spravato treatments. It changed my brain, changed how I felt about my trauma, my life, myself, and my engagement with living now with being infused with momentum and energy for the future. Spravato gave me my life back. It turned the background noise of my PTSD, Depression, Panic Disorder, and Suicidal Ideation WAY down, to a level that makes daily life completely different.

Leisure Games as Movement Meditation - Cheap to Make on Your Own & Engage in an Easy Sense of Play
Not only are leisure games a way to reduce your cortisol levels by engaging in light hearted play, they can also help distract the mind when ruminating or stuck in repeating image bombardment.
Examples of good leisure games to try:
Corn Hole
Bocce
Ladder Ball
Washers
Kube
Can Jam
Many Many MORE
Disc Golf is more of a sport for some people but can feel more playful and light like leisure games when less focused on competitiveness, criticism or expectations of perfection. The same could be said for any "sport". The real POWER in play is not about winning in any way.
