Get your thoughts out of your head while meditating, feel and think of other parts of your body by slowly scanning your whole body with deep slow breathing, accept the tinnitus it was probably always there, but faint and just not as loud. Neuroplasticity is the answer. Thanks Dr. Ben.
I read an article on the Internet of research done in China where tinnitus was relieved or eliminated in 8 days through acupuncture and sound. The procedure was done 8 days in a row. The acupuncture stimulates the vagus nerve and the sound reprograms the neural pathways in the brain. It is important the the sound not be the same sound as the tinnitus sound so that new paths can be developed. I can't find the article now but I wrote down the acupuncture points: GB40 - Angle bone TB17 - behind ear lobe GB2 - right above ear lobe SI19 - near ear cartilage where the indention is. SJ21 ear - right above ear canal GB43 - between 4th and 5th toe LU7 - near wrist SJ3 - between 4th and 5th finger LR3 - Foot: between big toe and second toe.
Great videos, the series of 2 really brought home what I need to be focusing on to take away the fear of tinnitus and learning to change My thought process and Negatity associated with tinnitus. Going to focus on my Wellbeing, exercise,meditation and Positive thinking. TO take Control of My mind and emotions, rather than to Control tinnitus. I am not tinnitus.
Thank you Ben!!! I'm getting excited!! I seem to be getting a little bit better, slowly but surely! Found your video today and grateful for the insight and to put into action!!! Ready to bump up my commitment to myself!!! I'll be watching more of your videos thank you for your time!!!
Hi, I loved listening to your calm voice! I was actually checking other websites while listening...I will properly listen again. I will start being positive about my tinnitus.
This is so amazing to me. I found your video while looking for help with neural circuit dizziness and I'm so encouraged as it seems like both can be fixed with the same processes. Have yet to see if that is true. 😁 I've certainly been negative about both. Thanks, Lynn

Hi Ben Excellent tutorials I enjoyed listening to you. I am very excited to start my new journey😃 will keep you posted. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
Hi Ben Value your time on the Neuroplasticity it makes me feel that there has always been a tinnitus factor within in the many years leading up to my recognising it, and my thought now is, that there is nothing more that I need to be afraid of from Tinnitus, and to safely concentrate on my positive well being using the Neuroplacity to improve and strengthen my body soul and mind, and truely benefit from an improved healthy brain.

Really great video, thanks! However I would like to ask two questions. -For the habituation in sound therapy, is it necessary to have a sound with a similar intensity of the tinnitus, or as long as it makes you not to think about the tinnitus and is not too loud is okay? -When I exercise hard (after 2 hours of intense biking for example) sometimes my tinnitus gets higher, do you know about any thing about why could happen? And regarding the anairobic exercise, can it be equally helpful if done for long periods? Really thank you for your work, it really helps a lot!:)
the brain must hear both tinnitus and pink noise. . to mix sounds. . . white noise is harmful. . changes the map of the brain and intensifies tinnitus. . with it all frequencies are of equal strength
1 - Tinnitus Retraining Therapy teaches that the sound stimulus frequency is not that important. Anecdotally, most people with tinnitus find more relief using high-pitched stimulus (crickets for example) 2 - I am not sure exactly of the mechanism that would cause tinnitus to get louder and physical exercise. Likely nothing to worry about. Most exercise is healthy so keep taking care of yourself!
Your comments at 26:15 were very very interesting Ben. This is why. Right now I listen to the sound of my tinnitus (64k) for 5ms then followed 2ms of light electro stim (tens) , I go on with my day happy while using portably , but if I listen to straight tinnitus freq sound it negatively impacts me. I can’t focus. So that means some songs can be counter productive. I wonder what I need to do or how long to translate my short term results to semi-permanent . Maybe I need to up my exposure time.
Thanks for the video. Dont stop. The sound theropy part was reallly interesting I've tried white sound which irritate s me and my tinnitus goes up and now l know why. Thanks.
Have you tried a cervical collar? If not, ask your doctor to be fitted for a hard cervical collar and use it for about 4 weeks. Like me your neck may be tilted to so far that you are experiencing mild to maximum tinnitus. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4803736/ Take a look at this data and scroll all the way down so you can see the diagram of the degree of head tilt. A person suffering for 20 years saw improvement. I had to start using mine again thanks to working from home and these smart phones.
Thank you Ben your very knowledgeable keep it up helping people. So if you hear pumping crickets what tinnitus therapy sound should I listen to so I can habituate..cricket or cascada sounds..white noise irritating..thank you again for the help!

Any tips for habituating to tinnitus that seems to swell and then dissipate in volume and then repeats that non-stop on a sort of 5 - 10 second cycle, making it almost impossible to habituate to it?
Hey Alaric Shorter, thank you for the comment. Try to document your potential triggers. Not sure what's causing that for you unless you can try to self-reflect on diet, stress, sleep, etc.
what about swiming?, also is it nromal that goes betwen the ears? mine seems neck/anxiety related, if i wear a neck brace it went donw, even some times i can not heart it, and after some necks exercices it goes await but come back, i feel that mine case is psicosomatic
I am not sure what kind of exercise you are doing at the gym but try doing calmer exercises like tai chi. If you are doing high intensity maybe that is not for you. Maybe try dancing as an exercise like flowy ones like salsa.😁
@@EVELYNE-ELIANA normal exercises like cycling , walking machine, some light weight lifting. I really feel that when i get tired and my blood pressure increases , the tinnitus hits hard.
Hi - I would like to know if you think that hearing aids are necessary to cure tinnitus. I have been doing TRT for 7 months with no results. The mics on the hearing aids actually flare my T and have had to be turned off until I am "ready." I am a professional musician and cannot use hearing correction while music-making anyway so I don't see the point. I only have minimal high-end hearing loss. I hate these hearing aids and don't want to wear them anymore. But I am being told this is the ONLY way. Can you give me you opinion on this?
Hey Melanie Mitrano, thank you for the comment. Of course this could be a long conversation. But in short, sound therapy is recommended to help with the intensity of tinnitus for a period of months to a year. It's often functionally more sustainable to use sound therapy via a hearing aid than to constantly have soothing soft sounds in your environment. If you are frustrated with the hearing aids, I understand how that may be upsetting. Sorry to hear that. Don't give up and keep finding out what works for you.
@@treblehealth Thanks for your reply. Have you ever seen people recover from tinnitus (or improve at least) just with sound therapy and NOT using the microphones on the hearing aids? That's what I feel I'd like to do...
Better find a protein that will block excessive glutamate activity. . . the main cause of tinnitus. . something like Gaba. . Glutamate is secreted when you are exposed to noise and stress and is neurotoxic
@@markovukasinovic8477 I will look into. Just so you know this company has a bad reputation as being recommended my medical professionals but no good science to support it
@@treblehealth I don’t know about their products or that company, but excessive glutamate activity and down regulated Gaba Receptors do seem to exacerbate/provoke tinnitus, that’s why tinnitus or the increase of it is experienced as a benzo withdrawal symptom: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7213946/

Most of tinnitus sufferers are torn and with little hope,unable to watch lengthy videos.

It is difficult to accept the noise in your head. A nagging conscious is bad enough
