Mindsip insights from this episode:
Utilize Braintap sessions to learn during sleep
The brain can absorb information through vibrational states even while you are snoring during a Braintap session, as it learns differently than the conscious mind.

Studies on nurses and coal miners with disrupted schedules showed sleep improvements of 68% and 70% respectively by using the Braintap device.
