All good stuff! Been a listener for a couple years now. Thank you. Additionally, I dove into the Levels program with a CGM. As a 52 year old female I found myself in a rut. Learning how to fuel my body better for my workouts, both pre and post, would not of been able to happen without Levels. Of course, all the the other good info that comes through your podcast with your guests is a package made in heaven! Again, Thank you so much for paving the way...

Andrew, there is a lot of good resources, podcasters etc. But you are the only one I’ll never get bored to watch. You do this job so professional, organic, down to earth yet keeping professionalism. No boasting, no stupid jokes, no hype, no bullshit. Just neat, neutral mostly black dressed host, who has strong science background and guest having a relaxed, rich in usefulness conversation based on science, research and legit data. Always enjoy your podcasts, this kind of podcast should be in high school curriculum to watch from growing generation so, they can benefit. Thank you for your perfect Podcast.

The conversation between Andrew and Charan wasn’t bad-Charan seems really nice and knowledgeable. However, I was personally hoping to learn more about techniques for better focus or memory improvement. We’re all aware that exercise is beneficial, eating healthy is important, and that keeping our phones away while working helps. I was expecting to hear about more advanced strategies beyond mind maps, mind palaces, and the usual findings from recent memory studies but thank you again for the time and energy Andrew.

Sometimes I don’t finish the episode, and if you’re like me, you still want the Huberman gold. Here are 4 nuggets that stood out to me from the last hour of the show: 1. You Can Change Your Memories: Every time you remember something, you’re actually changing it a bit. 2. Your Viewpoint Matters: How you think about a past experience can change how it affects you. 3. Your Brain Can Be More Flexible: Things like certain medications, psychedelics, or even relaxation techniques can help your brain adapt and change. 4. Talking Helps You Heal: Sharing your story with others can help you see it in a different, more positive light.

[@science-nerd-o5d]

Dr. Huberman,, I'm a huge fan of your work on neuroscience. I’ve been using your Neuroplasticity Super Protocol and NSDR practices rigorously, especially during 10-12 hour study sessions and daily workouts. It often adds up to 2.5-3 hours of NSDR per day. My question is: Could this frequent use of NSDR be beneficial, or could it lead to dopamine crashes from too many spikes?..If anyone else is curious about this question, feel free to like so Dr. Huberman might see it! 😊

[@AnonymousUser-ys8ou]

Non-sleep deep rest is not spiking your dopamine. There are many articles about it boosting dopamine. But boosting dopamine what, activity, or amount? Boosting the amount of dopamine means the dopamine stores are restored, whereas boosting dopamine activity reduces the dopamine stores by releasing it. A dopamine spike is when dopamine activity happens, but increases in dopamine stores is more gradual. You cannot have a dopamine crash from restoring dopamine stores, so no, it will not lead to crashes, NSDR is beneficial if your goal is to restore dopamine that can be used to modulate focus. There are diminishing returns from using NSDR beyond a certain point though, just as there are diminishing returns to sleep. The lower your dopamine is before, the greater the increase, so if you keep filling it from an arbitrary 70% to 85%, you are likely not seeing much benefits. I would recommend reducing the amount of NSDR unless you find your focus diminishing during tasks or with repeated tasks. At the start of the day, try to engage your focus, through visualization, directed focus like in NSDR but without closing your eyes. Use NSDR as a recovery tool, not an energizer, and you will find your time better utilized.

[@grasshoppingco]

10-12 hour study sessions?? he talks about pretty much just only doing 2-3 of the study sessions per day (90 min max, but you can push it to 120 min). that would cap you to 4.5-6 hours per day.

[@science-nerd-o5d]

@@grasshoppingco yeah bro even in that case,for sleep(20-30 minutes) for studying(considering 4 times 90 minute) equals (20minutes x4) 80 minutes,afternoon nsdr (20 minutes),and after workout recovery(20 minutes) which adds to 2.5 hours. my question is does this much a practise that can increase dopamine reserves upto 60 percentage every time it is used,will it be benefial to the process or detrimental by crashing the dopamine due to too many dopamine spikes leading to decreased motivation,drive..??? thanks for taking time to reply my message brother🫂🤝🤝

[@parsanajafi9940]

Dear Dr. Huberman, I’ve heard about your desire to learn a musical instrument, and I love to help you get started. While I understand you haven’t had the chance to learn an instrument yet, I think that i can help you to approach it in a creative way that resonates with your background in neuroscience. As I've learned so much from your podcasts, I believe learning music is indeed linked to how our brains function, and somehow I'm trying to tailor the lessons to tap into neuroplasticity and motor learning principles. This way, we can approach the piano as an exercise in rewiring the brain and mind-body connection. If this sounds interesting to you, I would be really happy to structure the lessons around your schedule and goals. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts sir! Best regards, [Parsa Najafi]

[@JRollSoul]

Thank you for this inspiring and enlightening episode - I loved it. This may have been posted already; if so, apologies. I first heard the phrase about nostalgia as “the pain from an old wound” from the episode “The Wheel” in the first season of “Mad Men”. Don Draper was pitching his sales idea for a new slide projector to the guys from Kodak, and quotes an old guy he used to work with, a Greek man named Teddy, who told him the “original” meaning of “nostalgia”. Draper goes on to demonstrate the projector with his own family photos, while convincing them why the projector should be called the Carousel, not the Wheel. It’s brilliant. I remember this scene because I showed it each semester in my History of Photography classes, to open a discussion about the role of photography in evoking memory, and how the need for family documentation was one of the factors leading to the “invention” of photography: most people could not afford to have portraits painted of their family members, and with the high rates of infant & child mortality in the 19th century and before, the idea of a method to quickly & cheaply create a likeness of a beloved child, often after death) as a memorial, was a catalyst that coalesced in early photo processes, and within a few years, the Daguerreotype & then the much faster & cheaper tintype. I also had some thoughts in response to your discussion of photography during events, how it can “remove” you from the event itself - one reason I stopped taking photos at friends’ weddings - you can’t really be there if you’re working!

Dr Huberman, would you please explain Binaural Beats vs Isochronic Tones as therapy, health and healing? What would you like me to know before I try it...or not? Thanks so much for all you do.

[@Cathy-e1s]

I have been using Binaural Beats in therapy with adults and children for over 10 years. The program I use (Quickshifts) entrains an alpha brainwave pattern and is adapted to eliminate the risks for seizure activity. There is plenty of research on BBT and it has been much more effective than Modulated music for traumatized individuals such as the Safe and Sound program. I would always want someone with mental or physical health issues to go with the safest and most researched choice.

[@DrYouMrTube]

Ok binaural beats don't work for most people and in most frequencies. It's almost like a marketing term. Search for brainwave entrainment. That works way better for most. My information is base on my personal experience as well as scientific data and 100s of accounts of use. A lot of people who CLAIM binaural beats working are ignorant of the reason it worked which is likely with the music or if no music the white noise itself.

Can you make an episode on teas and herbal teas? I really would like to know more about herbs, their effects, and different uses. I found it interesting because chamomile tea helps me so much with anxiety. It was really surprising to me. When I first noticed the great effects, I was very anxious and nervous, and it was really bad. But then I drank just half a cup of chamomile tea, and half an hour later, I was in bed falling asleep. I thought I would be awake the whole night, to be honest. Then the next day, I never thought I would be able to leave the house because of anxiety, but half a cup of chamomile tea, and there I go. It’s really cool how something as simple as chamomile tea, which you can get in many stores, can help so much.

[@NeuroReview]

Rating: 7.9/10 In Short: Do you Remember? Charan does... Notes: Andy (as Charan calls him) and Charan go way back, which already makes this convo a little fun/exciting from the beginning. You can tell they are friendly, and seeing/hearing a professional/engaguing conversation between these two reminds me of why these podcasts are so interesting and valuable. I feel these guys would never have a long, nuanced conversation like this unless its in this context. They dive in and out of complex ideas around memory, with some cool emphasis on dopamine and then into other areas of the brain that are important for memory and how it works. i like how huberman mentions alot of points/pushbacks on some of Charans claims and charan holds strong, making for a nice nuanced dialouge. They then touch on psychadelics and plasticity and diseases at the end, and close out with some fun punk rock related ideas they both love. Overall a great balance of story and science that we love to see from the huberman lab podcast.
