Midbrain activation

From Bharatpedia, an open encyclopedia

Midbrain activation is a pseudoscientific training method claiming to allow the development of blind vision and to improve memory and concentration.[1]

Controversy[edit]

The training programs run by the franchise organisations have generated criticism from rationalists, most notably Narendra Nayak, president of the Federation of Indian Rationalist Associations (FIRA).[2]
