Ever wondered how light and sound can influence your brain's energy? In this episode of Peak Human Labs, Dr. Sanjeev Goyal sits down with Dr. Patrick Porter, the scientist and innovator behind the BrainTap technology, a system used in more than 3,000 clinics and by over 120,000 individuals worldwide. Dr Porter breaks down the misunderstood world of brainwaves, energy, cognition, and how light and sound can radically shift your mental state, upgrade your nervous system, and support deep healing.

From childhood exposure to meditation and the Silva Method to pioneering the first portable light-and-sound machine in the 1980s, Dr Porter reveals the real science behind brainwave entrainment and why most of us are missing the essential neurological patterns required for peak performance. He explains why chronic stress locks your brain into beta overdrive, how theta governs creativity and epiphany, why delta sleep is the missing piece in emotional regulation, and how gamma synchronisation unlocks high-performance thinking.

Dr Porter also exposes a hidden problem: most adults today operate with dangerously low brain voltage, and he explains how energy collapse drives memory issues, anxiety, cognitive decline, addiction cycles, poor sleep, and low resilience. He shares how BrainTap uses targeted light, sound frequencies, and vagus nerve stimulation to retrain the brain into balance, boost ATP production, and restore the neuroplasticity most people have lost.

This is a deeply eye-opening conversation about the science of consciousness, the biology of energy, the rise of biophotonic medicine, and the future of brain optimisation. If you've ever wondered why you feel drained, foggy, unfocused, or stuck, or you simply want to unlock higher cognitive performance, this episode is essential.
