'DO THIS Everyday To Master Your Sleep & Be More FOCUSED' | Andrew Huberman & Lewis Howes

Dr. Andrew Huberman is a neuroscientist, and the professor of neurobiology & ophthalmology at Stanford. Andrew runs Stanford’s lab (the Huberman Lab) primarily studying brain states – such as fear, courage, anxiety, calm – and how we can better move into and out of them through things like visual cues, breathwork, movement, supplementation, and the like. All incredibly interesting research.

Outside the lab he’s worked with US elite military forces and professional athletes to help them manage their own brain states through his research.

the past few years i started going to bed around 9pm and waking at 5...now 4.... it, s worked wonders for me and i get so much more done. letsssgooo

[TheDhammaHub]

Sadly, so many people neglect sleep completely. It's not about "working time", it is about _quality time_ at work. You get much more done when well rested

[pearlechristian]

Listening to this while not being able to sleep

[Rambling_Man]

Love your show overall. It's like a bridge between science and art. A real holistic approach.

I never had trouble sleeping until recently. Menopause has hit. I'm waking up every 2 hours either from hot flashes or the need to use the bathroom. My husband on the other hand has always been a terrible light sleeper. I will be sharing this video with him. I would also love to hear about relationships.

I’m prone to waking up several times throughout the night. What’s helped me greatly is the old fashion trick of simply counting. My mind races most of the day and often spills over into the night… I tell myself that I do not have permission to think thru things at night. Instead of allowing my thoughts to proceed, I count. Thoughts will try to creep in there…gotta keep going tho. Typically I do a big yawn before 50 and I can feel sleep take over and it’s back to hard snoozing

[Jonquilness]

Yes!! Please do the episode on relationship and intimacy. It will be great with prof Huberman! 👍

Here's how i do it!
Write down any last concerned thoughts I don't want to forget for the next day. Keep a pad beside the bed. What I like to do is use is an old eyeliner pencil. I write whatever on my mirror so I see it 1st thing...
To SLEEP...
GET comfy. Nothing pinching or binding. Head settled into your pillow. Covers not too tight. That sort of thing.
I like to sleep on my back. I keep one foot out if the covers and a hand on the headboard or the wall. This helps me regulate my body temperature.
I TAKE my other hand and tuck my fingers into my waist band
ONCE COMFY...
CLose YOUR EYES.
imagine the color black. this clears the slate. some count sheep. too distracting. the color black doesn't change or move. perfect.
✔️ Important things dealt with
✔️ Comfy
✔️ Visualize the color black
While thinking about the color black. Start slow, deep breathes. in through the nose out through your mouth taking twice as long when you exhale..
The 3rd breath is usually my last exaggerated breathe. Longer, slower and more exaggerated. Then. ..Sleep!
Don't be worried about it having to be 3 breathes. Just breathe and imagine the color black.
I CAN PERSONALLY FALL ASLEEP IMMEDIATELY!

Can I suggest Ally Boothrod’s channel for Yoga Nidra videos. Her voice is so soothing ❤ and she has 10, 20, 30 min to 2 hr videos.
Her videos saved me from too many sleepness nights and brain fog during day

[amiensarabellis]

Great discussion. For those with glaucoma, keeping the head above the heart helps mitigate the rise in intraocular pressure associated with the supine position during sleep.

[Indy__isnt_it]

Take Prednisone, it'll keep you up for HOURS each night, I finally caught back up last night. I tried a new app for meditation trying to help myself. Tibetan singing bowls. It's vibrational sounds working within your physical and mental body, mind and soul. I listened to (3)15:00 min sessions. of someone activating one or more bowls. I slept like a rock after that.

[MJ-qhsu]

Dr. Andrew Huberman is always a great guest!

[dianapatrick]

This was great! Thank you so much! I’ve been struggling with insomnia for over two years and it has gotten worse. I’m always looking for natural remedies to fix it.

[ABAdams]

Sleep apnea is often related to a short lower jaw (retrognathic mandible). The tongue is attached to the lower jaw. So when the jaw is short, the tongue can more easily obstruct the airway, especially when you sleep on your back. Oral surgeons correct this by surgically advancing the lower jaw.

#Relationships ... Definitely would be a dynamic discussion
