Research on Well-Being

Higher Brain Living® (HBL) is a light-touch protocol designed to activate the neocortex of the brain which practitioners claim can increase wellbeing. Although studies have suggested that its component elements—light touch, focused breathing, and positive self-talk—can increase well-being for specific populations in specific contexts, no empirical research has occurred on its efficacy. This study is an important first step in establishing the efficacy of HBL in increasing well-being.

“You go deep enough or far out enough in consciousness and you will bump into the sacred. It’s not something we generate; it’s something out there waiting to be discovered.”
