The Sleep Hack You Haven’t Tried Yet! | No Pills, Just Science
About this video
In this short clip, Brecka promotes a pillow device he says he uses on long flights, claiming it transmits frequencies that mimic compounds involved in sleep and wakefulness without introducing those compounds into the body. He states he and his wife slept through a long-haul flight using its flight setting, and describes additional settings he says are intended to promote alertness. Brecka presents the device as an option for people who, he says, have already tried supplements, meditation and breathwork for sleep without success.
Key takeaways
- Brecka claims the device works by frequency rather than by delivering a substance
- Brecka states he uses it primarily during long flights to sleep through the journey
- Brecka argues the effect, in his telling, stops when the device is switched off
