What you feel
has a shape
Brain fog, inner restlessness, a memory that slips: your brain works in six networks, and what you feel is often a shift between them. In a few minutes you put words to it. A balance profile as orientation, not a verdict.
An outline, not a finding.
The Brain Network Analysis maps 30 statements onto six networks and shows you which of them you are drawing on hardest right now. The percentages at the end only say how strongly you agreed with the statements; they do not identify an illness. They serve your orientation and give a conversation a starting point. What is medically true is settled by a structured assessment: history, findings, examination, and where needed lab work and qEEG brain mapping. That is where every patient starts with us.
Your brain thinks in networks.
Rather than isolated “centres”, the brain works in large, distributed networks that are constantly playing together. When one of them shifts, it changes how you think, feel and sense your body. Here you meet the six, and how an imbalance can feel.
- 01Resting-State Network
Racing thoughts and rumination, memory gaps, a sense of “standing beside yourself”, or difficulty turning your focus back to the outside world.
- 02Salience Network
Inner restlessness or tension, sensory overload, difficulty switching gears, physical tension, or apathy.
- 03Central Executive Network
Trouble planning, gaps in working memory, decisions feel hard, your head feels “full”.
- 04Sensorimotor Network
Clumsiness, balance feeling off, tension, or over- or under-sensitivity to stimuli.
- 05Limbic / Emotional Network
Mood swings, emotional fragility, low stress tolerance, lack of drive, quick overwhelm.
- 06Attention Network
Quick distractibility, focus that will not hold, things being “overlooked”.
These networks work together; symptoms usually arise from an imbalance across several networks, not from a single one. That is why we measure instead of guessing. A physician brings the levels into one picture; imaging and a neurological examination rule out structural causes. This is how your individual program takes shape →
Six networks. Each at your own pace.
Read each statement calmly and choose how much it is true for you, from “not at all” to “very much”. There is no right or wrong. This self-check does not replace medical advice.
Your network balance profile · self-report · not a diagnosis
We measure first. Then we treat.
A questionnaire reflects what you feel, not what is happening in your networks. That is why every patient starts with a structured assessment: history, existing findings, questionnaires, clinical examination, and where needed lab work and imaging. Whether qEEG brain mapping is added is decided after that, not before. A physician brings the levels into one picture, and it is that picture, not this page, that decides every next step.
Letâs talk about your profile
In a free 15 to 20 minute consultation by phone or video, in English, the Douwes Brain Center team, part of Clinicum St. Georg under the medical direction of Dr. med. univ. Julian Douwes, looks at your profile with you and tells you whether an assessment is worth it. No verdict, no obligation.
