Where we are going today
HOW DO DRUGS & ALCOHOL
CHANGE US?
HOW CAN TRADITIONAL
INTERVENTIONS HELP?
WHERE CAN WE GO FROM
HERE?

Changes How does drug use change our brain? What we are going to look at:
Basic structural information
Electrical circuitry of the brain

BETA 11-18 Hz Awake, alert, & cognitive skills. If too high: anxiety or excitement
ALPHA 8-10 Hz Relaxed (if balanced), rumination, dazed, & marijuana
THETA 4-8 Hz Deep Relaxation, meditation, mental imagery, sleepiness, & lite sleep
DELTA .1-4 Hz Deep sleep, neuronal growth, healing, long-term memory encoding, HGH, etc

Marijuana
Considered to be one of the more subtle and least effective drugs by most people using it as well as many of the general population.

Wait to judge the next slide
Not bashing any group or method
Not saying any of the following do not help
Saying: understanding can open the door to greater healing. Even subtle changes to existing
programs have shown incredible outcome changes.

After treatment or other interventions
• 1st - Most treatment isn’t long enough to move into brain healing and reorganization.
• 2nd - Lack of understanding considering the neurological underpinnings of drugs and
alcohol (outside of dopamine and serotonin)
• 3rd - Many people/groups unknowingly reinforce the existing imbalanced brain
• 4th - Most people don’t know how to understand or heal themselves
• 5th - Medications can hinder healing and brain reorganization
