MIT graduates developed “Elemind”, a headband that promotes faster sleep without medication. This sleek device uses EEG technology to emit audio waves, aligning brain activity to ease the transition to sleep. In a study, users with insomnia fell asleep 10-15 minutes faster with Elemind.
It offers a drug-free alternative, potentially benefiting those avoiding sleep meds, managing jet lag, or seeking better next-day performance. Marketed as “put your brain on Do Not Disturb,” it calms active minds, making it ideal for people struggling to fall asleep due to racing thoughts.
