IRT for kids

(from the discontinued RET Forum)
by Charlotte Garland, MRET

You never know when you may need IRT. A 5 year old little girl had received her immunizations for the 1st time just before starting school this year. She reported that before she falls asleep each night, she remembers the time she went to the doctor and all the places she was given shots. This was causing her not to sleep and she was very upset about it.

Research into Eye Movements to Assess Memory

(from the discontinued RET Forum)

Scientists may have discovered a way to glean information about stored memories by tracking patterns of eye movements, even when an individual is unable (or perhaps even unwilling) to report what they remember. The research, published by Cell Press in the September 10th issue of the journal Neuron, provides compelling insight into the relationship between activity in the hippocampus, eye movements, and both conscious and unconscious memory.

Brain and Psyche
The Biology of the Unconscious
by Jonathan Winson

Jonathan Winson is a neuroscientist who has dedicated a great deal of his life working at the frontier of brain research. His research lead him to believe that recent neuroscientific findings may provide the long-sought link between the brain and the psyche. Dr. Winson’s groundbreaking theory, called by noted anthropologist Robin Fox: the most significant breakthrough into the unconscious mind since “The Interpretation of Dreams”, suggests that the link between the brain and psyche began with an evolutionary change in the brains of mammals 140 million years ago – which now, in the brain of man, constitutes the biological basis of the Freudian unconscious.

RET Wand Pattern found in hippocampus

Evidence for grid cells in a human memory network
Evidence for grid cells in a human memory network

University College London researchers have discovered that the brain lays out a grid of cells that represent a map of spacial orientations and locations in space. In an interesting coincidence, the Rapid Eye Technology (RET) eye directing device (called a wand) is moved in a hexagonal 3D pattern just in front of the face – a pattern that due to its spacial character may be very familiar to the aforementioned part of the brain.
