Ben Greenfield shows how to use an Earthpulse, a pulsed electromagnetic device you place under your mattress. It sends specific frequencies to your brain: alpha waves for focus, delta waves for deep sleep. Use it for an hour during the day or eight hours at night for recovery.

Hey, I'm Ben Greenfield. Welcome to Mi Casa. And I want to show you something in my bedroom. So follow me. I'm gonna come on down here.
Where we've got our nice clean bedroom, and I'm gonna show you something that I keep under my bed at night when I go to sleep. It's also something I travel with, so it's this little donut ring.
Trust me, you can't feel this if.
It'S under your mattress.
But this thing is called an earth pulse.
Get it out from underneath here.
So the way that this works is this little device right here, it's a.
North pole facing up, south pole facing down.
When plugged into this unit, it can receive a specific hertz frequency from this unit. So if I turn this on, for example, what I can do is send.
Out a frequency from this that would, for example, cause my brain to amplify its alpha brainwaves. So I could use that, say, before a workout. I could literally lie on my bed or even place this device close to my body and kind of get myself in the zone before a workout or before a race.
Now, what I personally use this more for is delta brainwave activation.
And so what I'll do is I'll.
Select what's called the recovery mode on this Earth pulse device, and I'll set it up for, say, if I'm going.
To take a power nap, I'll set this up for about an hour. If I'm going to go to bed at night, I'll set it for about eight hours. But what it. What it does is it sends your.
Brain into a state of enhanced delta brainwave activation.
And that's when you get your deep, restful sleep. So literally, you put it on your bed and you go. Now, the first few times that you use this, you don't really notice much at all. And then the more that you use it, what happens is something called brain entrainment. Your body actually begins to get used to these delta brain waves and you fall asleep a lot faster. So I swear by this thing for power naps, it travels with me. Now, I use it at night when I go to sleep.
It's called an earth pulsed.
So the actual name of what it is, if you want to look into this, look up some studies on the NIH or PubMed website, or even look it up on Wikipedia. It's called pulsed electromagnetic frequency. P E M F. Pulsed electromagnetic frequency. So check it out.
Great way to sleep better and especially enhance your deep sleep and your recovery.
Which, of course, has a direct impact on your training.
