Think there is any truth to learning through sleep

Question

Have any of you guys tried to fall asleep to your audio tapes?

Did you learn anything?

Answer 1

I did it yesterday, but while seems to work when your relaxed just before you are asleep as soon as you fall asleep the recal stops. Being in a relaxed quiet state will help you. cheers F

Did you test your self. How do you know the recall stops? - ionisme, Aug 20, 2011

Answer 2

Learning Spanish vocabulary or verb conjugations can be a great help in getting me to fall asleep.

I find that using Rosetta Stone, especially, puts me to sleep.

Answer 3

Es cierto que cuando estoy aprendiendo algo nuevo del piano,el día siguente, puedo tocarlo mejor que el día anterior sin practicar mas. Creo que durante la noche la mente está pensando y aprendiendo sin mis esfuerzas. Es posible que la mente funciona en una manera similar during el aprendiendo de idiomas.

It is certain that when I am learning something new on the piano, the next day I can play it better than the day before without practicing more. I believe that during the night, my mind is thinking and learning without my efforts. It is possible that the mind functions in a similiar manner during the learning of languages.

Answer 4

Just in case it's true.....

I keep a set of flashcards next to my bed and revise them before going to sleep and upon waking up first thing in the morning.
