Bitesize Biohack: Optimising Brain Wave States for Flow, Productivity and Sleep

Now is a great time to focus and reflect, and part of this is optimising our bodies for high performance. Sleep, in this respect, plays a huge part in making sure that we're at our best, and in this week's bitesize biohack, Angela looks at the insights provided by Dr Patrick Porter, and how we can achieve a more consistent state of flow, enabling us to rapidly accelerate our productivity levels. KEY TAKEAWAYS When we are in a flow state we are up to five times more productive. Theoretically, by reaching the flow state we could 5x our output. All brainwaves are important in the right context, so we need to contextualise them all as a symphony that work together instead of single elements. All dopamine reactions are designed with movement in mind. If we are in a state of relaxation, or seated, then dopamine reactions cause our brains to fry. The gamma brain wave is a higher level of creativity and problem solving. Gamma is very important in helping people to overcome dementia and Alzheimers.
