Taking quick gaps of breaks is severely underrated, and one I underestimated my self. I currently have calc 1 and discrete maths, and at one point I did 6 hours of studying with intense focus and it just made me overstimulated and nauseous. Once I incorporated taking a few break gaps, my brain started piecing everything together and helped made me understand the concepts easier. Oh and I also started limiting the amount I studied, there's literally no point in studying for more than 2+ hours for a single session, your brain isn't a computer and needs breaks.

1 Neurotransmitter priming: Do a burst of high-intensity exercise for 10 minutes before studying to unleash dopamine. 2 Targeted focus with blue light exposure: Begin your study time with blue light from natural sunlight or a lamp to improve alertness and cognitive function. 3 Breath work for stress reduction: Do diaphragmatic breathing or box breathing to create a calm state of mind before studying. 4 Strategic review sessions: Review during REM sleep to turn your memory into a fortress. Set a routine for quick reviews before bedtime and after waking up. 5 Sensory integration: Use multiple senses like touch, smell, and taste to create an immersive study experience.

During my education I didn't really revise that much as since I was doing these things naturally anyway without ever knowing they were beneficial. Then in university, times were tougher so I was trying to do much more, I also saw other people doing so much work so I thought that with my "natural talent" if I worked as hard as them I'd be a genius but then I found out that my grades were so much worse. In 3rd year, I stopped carrying as much and I went back to my old ways and I ended up acing my degree without doing as much work. This video helped explain everything and now I know that I wasn't actually being lazy but I was doing things properly.

@noahm59539 ай бұрын
Actually Andrew Huberman has stated in one of his podcasts on learning (It's been a bit so I'm not sure which one), but he stated that it was far more advantageous to become alert directly after a learning bout instead of before. The way that I do this is by drinking black coffee halfway into my study session of 60-90 minutes, so that I become fully aware at the end of my learning bout.

@Renni-kg6vf5 ай бұрын
I do this naturally. What I would recommend is taking 10-30 seconds doing nothing (not even thinking about what you're studying) then take an extra 10-60 seconds to actually consider what you're learning, and think about it more deeply. This will help you more deeply consolidate what you're learning, as you're actually engaging in that first initial step of active recall where your brain is like "ok, maybe this isn't meaningless rubbish I need to basically ignore completely", while it also helps you actually figure out where the gaps in your knowledge are, as people tend to just read information without comprehending it, but if someone were curious and asked them to explain the concept, they would only be able to recite what they read, where they would fail to answer any deeper questions. And focused study is so huge, like, people wonder why they aren't able to learn something, but they're just kind of expecting their brain to eventually "get it", when in reality you're naturally so much better able to learn when you're focused. I generally allocate 2-3 hours of my day to focused study, and the rest taking care of hobbies, interest and review (anki and obsidian SRS) and most importantly relaxing. I've found myself so much better able to make progress in various things.

1. Gap effect - When we pause, the brain areas active in the activity we were just doing (eg. math) don't stop but instead, replay the patterns of activity that occurred during the actual task. However, this 'replay' happens 10 times faster than the original learning (so it is like if we were doing the activity 10 times over within these short breaks) 1. Get Alert ( Take 25 deep breaths) 2. Get focused ( Find something in the room to stare at and keep staring at it without thinking about anything else) 3. Time limit ( no more than 90 minutes) 4. NSDR (Non-sleep-deep-rest. Meditation or napping)

There is no 90 mins limit to deep focus. This is attached to deep meditation capabilities. The more you meditate the longer the ability to have deep focus for hours. You can meditate for 3, 4, 6 or more hours and still maintain deep concentration; to such degree that you can feel your lungs expand and contract, you can feel your blood flowing to your toes, you can feel vibrations in your body circulating to the top of your head; this all happens in a state that is neither sleep nor wakefulness -- that is a special place to be in. Very peaceful. It takes a lot of practice to get there. A lot of hours of intentional practice and consistency. Meditation is a kind of superpower.

I would like to point out that the 25 deep breaths is supposed to be done quickly, and the last exhale should be a long exhale. Then hold for 25 seconds. This is sometimes known as cyclic hyperventilation and it is meant to stimulate adrenaline release. The way you did it at 2:11 is incorrect and probably why you didn't notice any effects. If done right, you might feel a tingle and will feel very alert thanks to the adrenaline. Hope that helps anyone reading this.

The Gap effect, also known as doing nothing, is a sophisticated process that can help in learning faster. Having random intervals of doing nothing while learning can be beneficial. The video discusses the importance of breaks, deep breathing, and focus in the learning process. 02:00 Taking deep breaths can help increase alertness and focus. Engaging in physical activity can also help improve alertness and focus. Focusing is essential for effective learning. Taking short breaks and practicing physical skills can help improve memory and retention. 03:36 Taking short breaks and practicing physical skills can improve memory. Non-sleep deep rest, such as meditation or short naps, can also aid in memory retention. Doing nothing for a minute or more can have a similar effect as longer periods of rest.
