So this thread is a little different than your typical practice thread.
I'm not alluding to drugs though in many parts of the world cannibas is considered legal including here in Canada. I've tried it .. had a very bad reaction to it and never used it again.
Some people swear on alcohol even red wine. But I have done recording sessions where I took down a glass of red wine before I recorded. I felt elated. Like my performance was godlike from the buzz I was getting from the red wine. However, when I listened to myself a day later on audio I had found out I had made more mistakes that I usually do when I'm 100% sober.
So that brings me to other supplements. Long ago there was one called Brainquicken which would make my brain feel like a sheet of glass. Everything was so clear. It also speed up neural transmission and decreased reaction time and improved memory. That supplement was eventully taken off the market.
I know there are a lot of legal nootropics that are available but they carry the risk of side effects. Some are better than others. I haven't experimented enough.
I do know nothing beats time practicing , but if you were on a laser like focus supplement you could accomplish twice as much in half the time and be ready to go again all day long.
Mind lab pro has a nootropic stack out that they say improves memory , recall, focus, logic etc.. But as musicians we use different part of our brain.
I don't smoke or drink alcohol anymore. The closest I get is my morning cup of coffee. But I find as I age (40+ now) my cognition is maybe 80% of what it used to be in my 20's which is a substantial decrease.
Does anyone have any legal supplements that have worked to make their focus and concentration laser like during their practice sessions?
