Neurofeedback is a form of brain-based training that helps you become aware of and learn to regulate your own brain activity. It is a specialised application of EEG (electroencephalography), a technology that measures the brain’s electrical signals in real time.
Your brain is constantly producing electrical patterns, commonly described as brainwave frequency bands (such as beta, alpha, theta, and delta). Each band is associated with different mental states: focus and thinking, relaxation, creativity, deep rest, or sleep. Our neurofeedback makes these normally invisible processes visible, experiential and trainable.
In simple terms, our neurofeedback allows the brain to see itself and learn from that information. Hence the name: MindMirror EEG
How Neurofeedback Works in The Mind Mirror App
1. Measurement
Small EEG sensors placed on the scalp measure your brain activity non-invasively. No electrical stimulation is sent into the brain; the system only reads signals.
Our app is compatible with several commercially available EEG headbands, including Muse, BrainBit, and Mindo.
This means you can work with professional-grade hardware while training in a way that feels personal and accessible.
2. Real-Time Feedback
In most neurofeedback systems, brain activity is translated into indirect feedback such as changes in sound or animation.
This app goes a step further.
You see your brainwave consciousness pattern in real time. As you meditate, breathe, or focus, you immediately see what your brain is doing and how it responds to what you are doing.
This creates a direct connection between inner experience and measurable brain activity.
3. From Implicit Learning to Conscious Training
In conventional neurofeedback, learning happens mostly implicitly. When the brain moves toward a more balanced pattern, feedback becomes smoother; when it moves away, the feedback changes. Over time, the brain adapts, much like learning to ride a bicycle without consciously controlling each movement.
Our app makes this process explicit.
You can:
See immediately what supports coherence
Notice what disrupts it
Experiment in real time with attention, relaxation, or intention
This allows you to train intentionally, not just passively. You are no longer guessing what ‘works’; you can observe it directly and refine it session by session.
4. Meditations Designed for Neurofeedback
The app includes meditations that are specifically designed to work with EEG feedback. These are not generic audio tracks layered on top of data.
Each session actively guides your brain toward certain patterns, while real-time feedback shows you how it responds. This turns meditation from a purely subjective experience into a trainable skill with immediate feedback.
What You Can Train With This App
Neurofeedback in this app does not force your brain into a state. Instead, it supports the brain’s natural self-organising capacity.
Depending on your focus, training may help you with:
Reducing chronic stress and overactivation
Improving focus and mental clarity
Enhancing emotional regulation
Supporting creativity and intuition
Accessing calm, stable awareness
Improving sleep and recovery
Deepening meditation
Exploring higher or more integrated states of consciousness
Rather than locking you into one ‘ideal’ state, the training emphasises flexibility: the ability to move smoothly between states as life actually demands.
Neurofeedback, Meditation, and Breathwork Together
Meditation and breathwork work from the inside out: you cultivate attention, awareness, or breathing patterns, which then influence the brain.
Neurofeedback works from the outside in: it mirrors your brain activity back to you, allowing your nervous system to recognise and refine its own patterns.
This app uniquely brings these approaches together.
By integrating neurofeedback, meditation, and breathwork into a single environment, the app turns separate practices into a single brain-responsive training system in which experience and measurement continuously inform each other.
Is Neurofeedback Safe?
When applied responsibly, neurofeedback is widely considered safe. It is:
Non-invasive
Drug-free
Based on measurement, not stimulation
Because the app works through training rather than intervention, changes tend to be gradual, integrated, and sustainable.
In short
This app is about training awareness at the level of the brain itself.
It translates abstract neuroscience into lived experience, giving you a way to explore focus, calm, creativity, and consciousness with clarity and feedback.
Instead of telling your mind what to do, the app creates conditions for your brain to rediscover balance, coherence, and choice.
