The Ideal Length of Time for Focused Work

[@HubermanLabClips]

This clip is from the Huberman Lab episode "Focus Toolkit: Tools to Improve Your Focus & Concentration." The full episode can be found on KZbin here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r5OYq6Olarx3fZY

[@carsonbates3348]

My summary: Try to keep your bouts of mental and physical exertion to ~90 minutes. Remember that losing focus now and then is normal. Redirect your focus on the task at hand when it has drifted. Take at least ~10 minutes for a mental break in between each ~90 session of mental and physical effort, during which you should avoid narrowing your focus. Let your brain idle during this mental break. Doing this can make it easier to focus on your priorities again.

[@Brett_trejo11]

I remember few years back after my wife died, I was left alone with 3 kids. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with ADHD. Not until a friend recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment changed my life for better. I can proudly say i'm totally clean for 6 years and still counting. Always look to nature for solution to tough problems, Shrooms are phenomenal.

[@TrishEden-c1f]

Yes sure of mycologist Pedroshrooms. I have the same experience with anxiety, addiction. Shrooms can really help break the spell. Whatever spell you may be under.

[@canerbakar-jv2si]

I'm so very happy for you mate, Psilocybin is absolutely amazing, the way it shows you things, the way it teaches you things. I can not believe our world and our people shows less interest about it's helpfulness to humanity. It's love. The mushrooms heals people by showing the truth, it would be so beneficial for so many people, especially politicians and the rich who have lost their way and every other persons out there.

[@Owemruther-hk4zn]

I too love hearing about others that have made it back.I got addicted cause of a car accident in 2007 that I am still in pain from,that doctors say is only arthritis then they took my pain meds and put me suboxone since Sept 2nd 2021. Even if I take it or not I still have that pain, so afraid I'm gonna git sucked back in to the pills cause I can't even work but can't get disability either so idk what folks like me do but prayer is all I have done and still the pain so idk anymore 😢 sorry for rambling.

I`ve studied now for the last 8 years. After a lot of trial and error my most productive study cycle is 80 minutes of focus, then a 10 minute break where I get something to drink, move around, check messages etc. for 10 minutes. Then I rinse and repeat. After three cycles of 80min I take a longer break for 30min or more depending on my schedule that day.

What happened to the 7.5 minutes,first of a study time, being the most productive in a 30 or 90 minute session?

[@JahnosSardonis]

You know, John Cleese (yes, that John Cleese) in his book about creative writing also said that you need about 8 minutes to get into the zone to become fully concentrated. To hear Andrew Huberman say that you require 10 to get to that stage must mean something about this, arguably, golden timeframe.

Dr. Andrew, I am a student from India. I have been a long time consumer of the incredibly useful, helpful content. Personally you have single handedly saved me from one of the worst times of my life that came in covid. I cannot thank you enough for that. Today, I have a question for you, I have developed a habit of studying for 45-50 mins or an hour then taking a break to watch an episode of a sitcom(20 mins), then getting back to studying. I find that this works for me. What would be your first thought on this as a fellow learner, and from a neurobiology perspective. Should I continue on this or turn towards the 90 minute cycles for more benefits?

[@sairos4057]

Watch the video again, little fella. Huberman said something like: "After focusing for about 90 minutes, do a pause between 5 to 30 minutes and, DO NOT FOCUS AT ANYTHING, DO MENIAL TASKS, GO OUTSIDE (added by me), DO NOTHING". No Tv shows, no cellphone, no reading. Let your brain rest, don't focus at anything.

Pomodoro theory and stats converge closer to 55 min (ON), and 10 min (OFF). That can fluctuate up 65 min on, but there's a measurable -massive dropoff in focus, accuracy, etc., after right around 1 hour (even 70 min+ has a measurable loss)

[@leonniceday6807]

perhaps the break should be around 30 min; this way, next 90 min repeats precisely (as a cycle should do!), and (probably) with no drop in energy.

[@robns6401]

Thank you. This is very insightful and useful. Am interested to learn about a few things - why techniques have been found to be great for the initial transition/ warm up? - what techniques have been found to bring attention back after a flicker? - from material and research I’ve read (as an armchair person interested in brains) it would appear that the great creatives (music, science, etc.) did on average 4-5 hours and no more of deep focus across a day. Be interested in your comments if the fact that they did no more than 4-5 (and 4 1/2 seems TK be the norm). Is this like not overtraining the body. And that allows for sustained lifetime effort?

[@luiscolin9095]

You can combine this with the pomodoro method too. Most of us (at least at the beginning) don't have the capabilities to keep going for 90 minutes straigth focus, so, in those cases, 25 min might work. If you are more advanced or feel like it is too short, do 25 min and, if you are feeling still with energy, then you can skip the 5 min break and go for another 25 min, repeat the same process until you reach the 90 min or until you feel like needing a break, make sure the break duration also increases as you increase your focus time

[@onlypadhai2076]

bro honestly that is what i thought would work.. but here i am with my 4 months wasted. I finally feel that ultradian might be something that might work for me and I'm gonna start it today!

[@shaggybg]

I loved the phone/mobile device reference and how it can affect our walking, bathroom, and other times. 😄 I am glad I managed to reduce the time I spend on my mobile device. And even this week I used it less than an hour every single day. Now, regarding the time of focus - for me 90 minutes is too much. But I understand it is normal to lose focus in this period, so a break is essential within this period. I wondered why my morning routine turned to be a 90-minute period, while I wanted it to be one hour only. Naturally, I do the morning rituals in such a way that they take 90 minutes. Now knowing this, I can use it to schedule my morning, work, personal, evening, and sleep times accordingly. The challange is that not every day I do one and the same flow of things (which is good - I don't want to turn into an automatic robot), but at least when I need to be most focused and productive, I can use this knowledge in my advantage. 🙃

[@Jerry_Jerry1998]

I actually feel pain inside of my brain. When people say your brain can't feel anything because it lacks nerves, I believe that to be false. I have felt sensation inside my prefrontal cortex, & as of recently I will get headaches where somewhere on the left hemisphere of my brain is in pain. This first occurred a few years ago, but I can now sense this is happening more often. It is also synonymous with the pain in my ear. I am trying to do the best to take care of my health, I only hope that one day I can better understand what's wrong with my neurobiology, it seems very superficial to me. trying my best here, thanks for all your helpful advice

[@Zalfion]

In summary: Our brain operates on Ultradian Cycles, which is 90-min cycles. What that means is attempt to focus on a task for no more than 90-min. 1. Accept the first 5 to 10-min within the 90-min is the transition time. 2. Be okay with losing focus during the 90-min focus time, but be able to shift your focus back 3. Brain uses the most of your metabolic energy, you'll feel tired after focusing for 90-min, so allow your mind to rest for at least 10-min, ideally 30-min of deliberate defocus time. 4. During defocus time, try not to look at your phone and let your mind idle.

[@noctuboi225]

[@TheYeLL0wFlash]

Personally, I am very well doing with the pomodoro technique. If I am in the "reading-,understanding-, structure- and creating notes - stage" I use this form of pomodort: 50min focus, 10 min break --> 2 times of this one pomodoro cycle. But in the elaborate-stage ( repetition with ANKI) I use a 4 ×25 min with 5 min breaks inbetween as pomodoro-cycle.

What about the Pomodoro method, where you focus/work for 25 minutes, take a 5 minute break, repeat four times, and then take a 15 minute break.

[@a8lg6p]

Having a timer to be explicit about whether I’m working or not really helps me… But I find that at 25 min I’ve just really got going… Then 5 minute break feels like way too short, so what’s the point, it’s just frustrating that I have to try to focus again already, but my flow is already disrupted, and takes a while to get back into it again… I’m going to try doing like Pomodoro but 90 min, 30 min breaks. I think that might work better for me.

[@AndresRoaro]

From my experience pomodoro is great to start doing focused work, 90 minutes can be daunting. But eventually moving to 90 minutes is better, as you get into more flow.

[@spivak4342]

Rubbish. Why would you stop at 25 min if you're already in good concentration

What if you really get into the groove and suddenly the pomodoro's alarm interrupts your concentration, saying you must relax?

[@AndresRoaro]

@@mendelovitch then expand your time, play with this until you find what works for you. It's also important to note that sometimes stopping your work in the groove tends to help some people. Writers for example sometimes stop mid chapter and when they come back it's easy to finish the idea. Compared to having to start from a blank page, but again experiment, what works for someone doesn't work for someone else.

[@InceyWincey]

From the research I’ve seen it’s fairly conclusive that the optimum cycle for studying is in fact 30 minutes, and that 90 minutes without a break is an effective way to completely waste the better part of an hour. Students who took 5 minute breaks every 30 minutes when revising had significantly better recall than those who took breaks every hour. Performance dropped significantly beyond this point, meaning students who studied for 90 minutes were effectively just wasting the last 30-45 minutes of each study session.

And how do you get into the flow immersion by simply studying for 30 minutes ? you lose the momentum

[@InceyWincey]

@@Puchog how does a basketball player get into the zone when they only play for 12 minutes a quarter? I don’t think taking breaks prevents you from achieving flow state. If anything it could very well help because you don’t overtax yourself. In fact this seems like it could well be the case. A lot of people find it easy to get into the flow state playing online games, in which the matches are often less than half an hour long, with short breaks in between for matchmaking. Considering this, the idea that shorter periods of concentration make it easier to achieve flow state seems to make sense to me.

In the past, I've use the Pomodoro Technique. I think 90 minutes makes more sense, as the 25 minute seems too short.

That 10-30 minute break could be a 10-20 minute nap - that's what they're good for

10minute is enough to make me feel sleepy.

00:03 The key to focus is to follow the 90-minute ultradian cycle 00:41 An ideal duration for focus is 90 minutes or less 01:21 90 minutes of focused mental work or learning 01:56 The brain's metabolic energy is chiefly consumed by brain function. 02:36 Deliberate defocus can improve productivity 03:12 Stay off your phone to decompress and improve focus 03:54 Our ability to focus is not just related to sensory information on devices, but also to deliberate decompression and sleep restoration. 04:38 Take breaks throughout the day to improve focus

It is like pomodoro techniques right?
