Positive Changes
At an early age, Dr. Porter had experience with meditation and relaxation techniques. His dad taught him the techniques using the Silva Relaxation Sound to work on his concentration and focus. Later in life Dr. Porter learned about Neuro-Linguistic Programming which was all about digitalization and relaxation. This lead to him creating his first business, Positive Changes.
Positive Changes turned into one of the largest self-improvement franchises using mind-based technology. This made Dr. Porter a highly sought-after expert within the personal improvement industry. The company quickly grew when they implemented a training program of the brain technology. It continued to grow strongly until some bad hires were made and their decisions changed the course of the business.
Dr. Porter decided to get out of the business and continued to receive a payout and royalties for the technology he created. The new management of Positive Changes eventually decided to stop paying him royalties and therefore ended up in a court battle with Dr. Porter. It ended in his favor and the company could not use his technology in any future sales so quickly fell apart.
After his non-compete was over, Dr. Porter got back into the brain game with the urging of a friend travelling around and doing shows with the mind-based technology. This is where the idea of BrainTap Technologies was born.
Training Your Brain
“A lot of people think our brain is fixed. Our brain can change. You can literally retrain your brain. You can use technology, like the Brain Tap, to bring your brain back into balance and start getting the best life now instead of waiting for life to happen,” says Dr. Porter.
There are four primary brain wave states and BrainTap helps you “tap into” these different states through light, sound, and vibration. It teaches you to go to these different brain wave frequencies, which depending on your goal and the program you choose, will help you relax or give you more energy.
“We call it tai chi for the mind,” states Dr. Porter.
Listen to the podcast to find out more on the different brain states and how BrainTap can change how you think.
The Entrepreneurial Mind
“The mindset of an entrepreneur is different than the mindset of an everyday worker. That’s why there are only so many people that are successful in business,” says Dr. Porter.
Entrepreneurs tend to hit a burnout phase at some point. You work yourselves to the bone and cannot seem to shut it off at the end of the day. The brain gets stressed out and does not function at its highest peak at this point. When you can’t sleep because you are thinking too much about what to do or where to go next, you are missing a brain wave frequency called Theta which is the bridge between fears and frustrations and deep peaceful sleep. Again, BrainTap helps train your brain to move through these frequencies so you can learn how to relax or recharge your brain.
