Using Biocharger and Mendi Neurofeedback

Today, we talk about how we can hack our brainwaves and neuroplasticity with neuroscientist, Dr. Melissa Wittman, and biohacking investor, Moha Bensofia. Dr. Melissa Wittman is an absolute boss who runs a thriving clinic in Austin seeing patients from all over the world. With over a decade of hands-on experience, she specializes in pediatric brain injuries and neurodevelopment issues, as well as optimizing cognition at any age. 

Moha Bensofia has funded dozens of companies and has a knack for building great things with amazing people. He is currently CEO of Mendi, a neurotech startup making medical-grade biofeedback affordable and accessible – the crux of our conversation today.

Their mission is to enable anyone to take control of their brain activity and reach new levels of performance, whether as an entrepreneur, athlete, or just a happier human. Though originally created to help trauma victims and people with conditions like PTSD and ADHD, Moha explains why Mendi's neurofeedback can benefit anyone ready to step up their game.

Together, Dr. Melissa Wittman and Moha Bensofia break down the science behind how Mendi's headphones measure and train your brain in real-time, as well as tangible results like improved focus, emotional resilience, sleep, and more. Strap on your headsets and get ready to hack your own neuroplasticity as we dive into the next wave of biohacking for your mind.
