Send Push
Inventions in science and technology are reaching new heights, and now you may not believe that there is a handheld device that can help with racing thoughts and keep you from sleeping. The device is said to temporarily disrupt mental noise by silencing it using magnetic pulses. The magnetic pulses are released for about 40 seconds to put your mind at ease and promote peaceful sleep.

What is the device and what does it do?

A recent study from the University of Arizona released that they have formulated a device that can revolutionize the treatments of sleep orders. Mr William Scott Kollgore and his team have created this new handheld device that disrupts the brain network by transmitting magnetic pulses. Within 40 seconds, the brain hushes down the disturbing waves and thoughts effectively and the technique is called "continuous theta burst stimulation'.

The initial research experiment by the team has reportedly shown promising results and it is said to undergo a 3-year-long study of research on the device and it will be tested on people suffering from chronic insomnia

Why does your brain create rapid thoughts?
Throughout the day, one is occupied with daily chores and responsibilities, and with a heavy work burden both physically and mentally, racing thoughts often occupy the mind only at night, just before sleep. As the brain realizes that, within 24 hours, you have done everything possible and only have tasks to complete later, these racing thoughts fill the empty space.

These thoughts come due to various reasons that include anxiety, depression, panic disorder, chronic stress, trauma, overthinking and bipolar disorders. It is important to keep your sleep cycle hygienic as the brain and body needs to shut down from being active for a while.

Instead of completely leaning towards this handheld device, one can also try basic meditations and relaxation techniques to keep your mind away from racy thoughts at night. A calm and composed atmosphere will help you sleep well.

Try to maintain a consistent sleep cycle and regular exercises can help improve quality of sleep. It is important for human bodies to have a quality sleep as cells regenerate only when we are asleep. So more than the number of hours, it is important to get deep sleep.
