INSIGHT

Sleep Is A Secret Classroom

  • Sleep is not just rest; the brain uses sleep stages to consolidate facts and spark creativity.
  • Deep (non-REM) saves facts while REM links information, finds patterns, and solves problems.
ADVICE

Prime Your Mind Before Bed

  • Prime your mind before bed by reading or reviewing key material and setting intentions.
  • Your brain replays that content overnight, strengthening memory without extra study time.
ADVICE

Limit Screen Light Pre-Sleep

  • Cut blue light from screens before bed or use blue-light filters and biohacking glasses.
  • Reducing screen light helps melatonin production and leads to better sleep quality.
