How I Beat the Afternoon Slump with Binaural Beats and My Rebounder


Hey, it’s Mark!

It was a warm and humid Houston Friday afternoon…

The kind that makes even this Diet Coke-loving productivity coach feel like he’s wading through molasses.

Energy? Flat.

Focus? Fizzled.

Momentum? M.I.A.

But instead of cracking open another can, I turned to something I never expected to give me a real boost…

Binaural beats + my rebounder.

I slipped on my headphones, cued up a track of Beta wave binaural beats (13–30 Hz), and gently bounced on my rebounder for about 15 minutes.

And something clicked.

Mental fog? Lifted.

Mood? Elevated.

Clarity? Rebooted.

I felt like ME again—bouncy, clear, and ready to take on the world (or at least my to-do list).

But let me be clear:
This is a short-term energy booster, not a sleep replacement.

Binaural beats and rebounding can reignite your fire when you're dragging, but they don’t make up for poor sleep habits.

If you really want to stay clear, focused, and high-energy over the long haul?
Prioritize quality sleep.

  • Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day (yes, seven days a week).
  • Your body craves consistency—it’s the best performance hack I know.

This combo is for the days when you just need to finish strong—not an excuse to skip sleep tonight. 😉

You don’t need hours—or caffeine. Just:

  1. A short beta wave track
  2. 15 minutes on your rebounder
  3. A willingness to try something that actually works

I take action. And you know what? People see it. Some are close to me. Some only know me from the podcast or this very newsletter. But they know I show up. And yet… They’re still not moving.
