I successfully used it during college (over 10 years ago) to regulate my general brain state, particularly at deadlines. I mainly used beats to maintain focus, trigger creativity/reflection and for power naps. Got me through some tough times.
- mewpmewp2 11mo agoHow can you tell it is not a placebo? I guess it's just weird for me to think that it seems to do absolutely nothing to me, yet some people claim effects?
- skeledrew 11mo agoEven if it's a placebo, that it got the job done is what matters. But how would I even test Ig it was a placebo effect? I already have the experience of not being able to go the lengths I did with it, without it. Like I really drove myself to meet some bad deadlines, and paid for it several days after; I couldn't drive myself like that otherwise (I don't drink coffee, energy drinks, etc).
- embedding-shape 11mo agoI did the same thing around 20 years ago, but with just drum and bass, nothing "binaural" about it. Might work any genre of music, as long as you like it :) YMMV
- skeledrew 11mo agoEven taking 20-minute naps (although they sometimes became about an hour, as I'd be so out of it that I extended the schedule)?
- embedding-shape 11mo agoIndeed, if I feel like crashing out, sink a quick espresso, put on some ambient drum and bass on the TV and take a 20-30 nap in the sofa, works every time.
