Abstract Vibration-based therapies are understudied but promising methods for alleviating psychiatric symptoms, particularly when paired with behavioral practices. The potential neuroplastic changes associated with a novel neurostimulation method, sternal vibration, and associations with clinical change remain unknown.

If youre struggling with a slice, chances are your clubface is open at the top of the backswing, indicated by the toe of the club pointing toward the ground. From this position, it is very difficult to square the face in the amount of time you have (about a quarter of a second) before the clubhead gets down to impact. Some elite players, like two-time major champion Justin Thomas, play well from an open-face position, but I wouldnt recommend it for golfers who tend to slice.

Many trauma survivors experience diminished attentional control, particularly in emotional contexts. We recently observed that exteroceptive vibration-signaling during breath-focused meditation improved attention in a pilot study of trauma-exposed people.
