We all know how stress influences our health. Mindball is possibly the best way to train your ability to control your stress. All you need is a special table, produced by the Swedes, which is connected to a brainwave measurement machine. The goal of the game is to be more relaxed than your opponent. This pushes the ball into the opponent’s goal.
How MindBall works?
Each player gets a special headband around his head and tries to be as calm as possible. The relaxed brain produces so called theta (4-8 Hz) and alpha (8-12 Hz) waves. Electroencephalogram (EEG) machine measures these electrical activity, the table reacts and pushes the magnet connected to the ball toward the less relaxed of the two players.
