In this short video, the speaker shares a practical biohack for improving sleep by correctly inserting foam earplugs. They explain that many people insert earplugs incorrectly—just squeezing and pushing them so they remain visible and do not form a seal. The speaker demonstrates the correct method: lift the top of the ear, pull the bottom down, rotate the compressed plug into a tiny shape, insert it as deep as possible, and allow it to expand to create a tight seal. They note that the first few weeks of sleeping with the plugs can be irritating, leading to occasional removal during the night, but after adaptation the plugs become comfortable and dramatically improve sleep quality, described as a "game changer." The content is framed as a simple, actionable health biohack.

The first time I was using earplugs, I wasn't putting them in my ears properly. And I've realized most people don't. They just squeeze it a little bit and push it, and then they're sticking out of your— someone's ear. And it's— that's not in your ear if it's sticking out. If you can see it, it's not in your ear. There's a way you can watch YouTube videos, but you have to like lift the top of your ear and pull the bottom of your ear and then spin it so that it's very, very small, almost like a golf tee, and then stick it in your ear as deep as you can go. And then let it expand. And then that is when you get a good seal. And the first couple of weeks sleeping with it, it was irritating. And in the middle of the night I would like take it outta my ear, but eventually it became comfortable and it has been a game changer for me.
