In an initial trial, patients who suffer from chronic nerve pain got relief from an interactive game that trained them to alter their own brainwaves. The promising results could lead to a new generation of drug-free treatments, according to the study. A research team led by psychologists from the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia developed PainWaive—a training system that teaches users to regulate abnormal brain activity that underlies nerve pain—as a potential in-home, non-inv

Honorable Mentions Photograph: Gap Gap Heavyweight French Terry Seamed Wide-Leg Sweatpants for $70: As I mentioned earlier, sometimes nontraditional pants are just a bit too out of my comfort zone, and I found these to be difficult to style. The heavy French terry fabric is nice and warm, and some colors look almost like denim. But on my 5'1" frame, with no drawstring on the waistband, these regularly pooled at my ankles, and not in a cool counterculture way. I felt like I was dressing up in m

Despite advances in headset hardware and thoughtful software design, virtual reality can still be a nauseating, dizzying, and sweaty experience for some people.

We’ve all had the aha moment, when the solution to a problem is suddenly obvious. In cartoons, that eureka feeling is usually depicted as a lightbulb floating above a character’s head—which is not that far off from what actually takes place in the brain during these moments. Researchers have revealed that epiphanies physically reshape brain activity. What’s more, they discovered that people remember epiphanies better than solutions reached through a more methodical approach. These results could

With long waiting lists and rising costs in overburdened healthcare systems, many people are turning to AI-powered chatbots like ChatGPT for medical self-diagnosis. About 1 in 6 American adults already use chatbots for health advice at least monthly, according to one recent survey. But placing too much trust in chatbots’ outputs can be risky, in part because people struggle to know what information to give chatbots for the best possible health recommendations, according to a recent Oxford-led s

While keyboards dominate modern classrooms, a new study in Frontiers in Psychology suggests handwriting may be irreplaceable when it comes to learning. Researchers found that writing by hand activates far more extensive and interconnected brain networks compared to typing, particularly in regions linked to memory and sensory processing. These findings provide new evidence that handwriting engages the brain in unique ways, raising concerns about the growing reliance on digital tools for education

In this exploratory study, we have demonstrated that the subjective experiences triggered by circular breathwork bear a close resemblance to those evoked by psychedelics across experiential domains such as ego dissolution, unity and bliss. By tracking physiological and experiential dynamics throughout a breathwork session, we were able to show that while this effect appears to be partially supported by general context (including evocative music and social support), the physiological changes asso
