Dr Andrew Huberman | Understanding your brain + optimising its function

In Episode #205, I sit down with Dr Andrew Huberman to discuss the nervous system and how lifestyle choices impact your brain. As a neuroscientist and tenured professor at Stanford University, Dr Huberman has made numerous significant contributions to the field of brain development, brain function, and neural plasticity. In this episode, we break down the basics before moving on to the impact of specific lifestyle decisions and behaviours. We cover what neuroscience is and why it’s important, covering some significant discoveries in the past century. You’ll also learn how caffeine impacts the nervous system, how to improve learning, and the benefits of non-sleep deep rest (NSDR). We discuss tools you can use to wind down from intense alertness, supplements and brain health, and much more. Specifically, we discuss: Intro (0:00) What is Neuroscience (4:07) Milestones in Neuroscience (10:04) Neurons and Performance Enhancement (18:48) What Caffeine does to the Body (29:08) The Ideal Exercise (32:40) Adrenal Burnout and Pineal Calcification (43:46) Caffeine Withdrawal (52:38) Using Breath to Calm the Nervous System (1:02:10) Yoga Nidra for Deep Rest (1:06:38) Balance of Rest and Work (1:15:00) Tips for Better Sleep (1:32:28) Brain Fog & Focus (1:50:32) Motivation & Top Down Control (1:54:53) Dopamine & Social media (2:07:30) Cold & Heat Exposure (2:14:22) Outro (2:29:30) You can learn more about Dr Huberman on his Stanford University page, and visit his website Huberman Lab.
