Sleep Trackers “Time in Bed” vs “Time Asleep”and which is most accurate?
You say 7-9 hours of sleep is optimal. With wearables they will tell you time in bed vs time asleep. If you take a bit to fall asleep or are moving a lot it registers as not “asleep”. Is your recommendation for time asleep or time in bed? I understand this could be both, and how did the studies measure this? What are the most accurate sleep trackers? This guy says Apple Watch Series 8 is. Compared to the ECG. https://youtu.be/u8XbiWIUW4s
Tony Buzan and speed reading
My employer recently sent me to a speed reading course based on the work of Tony Buzan. Supposedly, scanning groups of words instead of reading word by word, using a pointer and bionic texr helps to speed up reading up to 600-700 words/minute at max w/out losing comprehension and retention. Is this true? We can also turn off subvocalizing to increase speed but at the cost of comprehension. A deep dive on (speed) reading would be most welcome!
What would you do if you had Parkinson’s?
Dr Huberman—what would you do if you had Parkinson’s? I’m a long time follower, listener and fan, diagnosed with early-onset GBA PD 4 years ago and I’ve long been burning to know what you’d do to deal with symptoms as well as the progressive nature of the disease. Supplements, lifestyle hacks, out there experiential stuff. How would you approach the illness—who would be on your care team? Best, with respect, Cynthia
