ASMR

MDMA for curing depression and enhancing self-discovery

Dementia and ophthalmology

1:What is the science behind dyslexia? 2:What is the science behind ADHD? . Also Discuss dyslexia and ADHD from a neuroscience perspective, what neuroscience say about it. . And how to overcome dyslexia and ADHD?

What to do to stay focused and how to develop that 'sense of urgency' while studying to produce acetylcholine.

I'll just add here that id love to learn about the possibility to help children with dyslexia with what we know now about neuroplasticity

Neuroplasticity

Plasticity and TBI recovery.

Plasticity tools and applications for sure. It’s foundational.

enhancing studying through triggering offline replay by creating a specific environment. So for example while studying I could smell a specific odour and making sure that I also smell that while sleeping so that this memory gets triggered.

Yes, this please.

Hey I’ve got some really great news to share with you, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died on a cross and resurrected on the third day so you may all have eternal life. If you believe and repent of your sins and put your faith and trust in Him as you would a parachute jumping off a plane at 25000 feet up in the air, He will give you eternal life in heaven as a free gift and I promise you, He will change your life forever as He did mine. He is the ONLY way to heaven and He loves you all. Please think deeply about this with urgency because this is your eternal life and soul, you don’t know when you could die, meaning you could die at any moment, so please consider this with all your heart. If anyone tells you that Jesus isn’t the only way, they are lying to you and they don’t care about your future.

Yes, a deep dive would be super. I'm pleased it's going to be 'deep', not shallow. Yay!!!

I would love that and like to add what we can do with our breathing to positively influence those around us, including animals.

I would really appreciate including the effect of asthma and neuroscience when speaking about breathing.

YES! to breathing in regards to neuroscience and it’s effects on the autonomic nervous system

Yes this is good. I've found out that I stop breathing, not in my sleep, but in my wake! Constantly. I don't know how or why if happens, I just stop breathing. I also don't breath deeply, so much so that I have very low blood pressure and am always weak. I wanna know the science of breath to control my body!

Yessss i was ginna mention it but ur comment really sets it in stone. Deffo want to learn more! I did watch his 2 hour talk about the brain, and one thing to know is its the process that is what feels rewarding the most so really take that in and just go with it no matter what!

In adition to that I would like to know if high dopamine levels during all the day could also be harmful for your self, If so how to stay in a healthy balance. Thank you!!!

Interesting, and for us with adhd ( with dopamine issues) it's more complicated. I'd like to know how this works better.

Mesolimbic DA pathway is the key pathway which is involved in learning and reinforcement, especially nucleus accumbens which plays important role in behaviour related to addiction.For example smoking has higher potential for addiction due to its rapid onset and short half life, due to it each puff is reinforced immediately and there are so many puffs in a cigarette.

A deeply deep dive on dopamine would be so welcome! Esp in light of LFB's comments on dopamine/serotonin on Insta, I can't help feeling these were crucial insights, I was left impressed with this knowledge anyway! Is there more context to be found about the relevance of dopamine as a metabolic regulator and significance to how we commonly approach our understanding or apply our understandings around dopamine? Just layman/lady musings...hope this isn't silly.

Yes!!!!

Yes!!! EMDR is one way, but what are others??

Piggy backing on this: personality, attachment theory and the coping (unconscious) behaviours we develop. Robert Sapolsky comes to mind as a fantastic conversational guest!

yesssss!!! Would love to learn about this.

I recommend looking at teamsherzai.com regarding dementia. They’ve specialized in the field and have a lot of interesting material (especially regarding diet/lifestyle factors that contribute to dementia).

I suggest to keep learning to prevent dementia, also heard it’s actually good to keep interacting with people, as like, don’t retire.

Fantastic topics!

@Samantha - Team Sherazai pricing is quite high for sharing their information @ nearly $500 (well...$497 for their individualized learning pkg. Hopefully, one can borrow their book from the library, or buy @ Amz to try to glean the information they have gathered for preventing alzheimers. I kind of doubt it's much different from the information brain scientists are already sharing for free...

YES!

Apart what YOU can do, think that the environment is the place that shapes us, so you have to create the right place and frame. If I was not right, how would you explain the differences between each generations? It is also like how can you help children walk better? Get out of the city with their smooth surfaces and you don't have to think about it any more! You develop the brain when you develop the body. Our intellectual part is not supposed to be in charge for what the rest of the nervous system is the master for.

Read often to your children & let them see you & other adults enjoy reading

Also how and/or if this changes as we age.

I would like to make an expansion to the above: Specifically for those of us that have high ACE scores and now, have been diagnosed with chronic disease. Does a focus on healing the ANS benefit and if so what techniques are most beneficial?

Oh yes please! ACE scores provide great insight, but I'd like to dig deeper.

Just a thought.... AdultChildren.org 40+ years edited done and published in 2006. “Adult Children of Alcoholics / Dysfunctional Families & Other Addictions.” Complete text & workbook in 649pgs “The Problem” “The Solution” “Doctors Opinion” “Letter to Non-Members” “Definitions” “How It Works” “Appendix 1 & 2” ACoA has its own “World Service Organization.” As A.A., Al-Anon, NA, Narc-anon and the many other 12 step programs. “The Doctors Opinion” has references and more. ...”An adult child’s brain is like a Ferrari going 90mph with the brakes on.” The antidotal stories are compelling to comforting. For educational purposes only, below gives one a quick overview on “traits.” I’ve been a very small part of the recovery community since November 1989. The biggest challenge in this particular twelve step program, there just are not enough sponsors who have the knowledge, time in practicing these principles, exercises, and meetings globally are few. This book has “how to start a meeting” (suggested locations & why). Triggering had been my biggest obstacle as a meeting organizer. The adult children meetings are very much different then the typical 12 Step Program for reasons all mentioned in the educational section “how to start a meeting.” I selected local hospitals, for reasons mentioned in the text. Safety being my biggest concern. This is nothing lightly to take on. It can get out of control very fast. All the best out there people in 2021. And thank you Andrew for your professionalism, knowledge, on your vast wisdom. Laundry List (14 Traits of an Adult Child) These are characteristics we seem to have in common due to being brought up in an alcoholic or otherwise dysfunctional household. * 1) We became isolated and afraid of people and authority figures. 
 * 2) We became approval seekers and lost our identity in the process. 
 * 3) We are frightened by angry people and any personal criticism. 
 * 4) We either become alcoholics, marry them or both, or find another compulsive personality such as a workaholic to full-fill our sick abandonment needs. 
 * 5) We live life from the viewpoint of victims and are attracted by that weakness in our love and friendship relationships. 
 * 6) We have an overdeveloped sense of responsibility, and it is easier for us to be concerned with others rather than ourselves; this enables us not to look too closely at our own faults, etc. 
 * 7) We get guilt feelings when we stand up for ourselves instead of giving in to others. 
 * 8) (((((We became addicted to excitement. ))))))
 * 9) We confuse love and pity and tend to “love” people we can “pity” and “rescue.” 
 * 10) We have “studied” our feelings from our traumatic childhoods and have lost the ability to feel or express our feelings because it hurts so much (Denial). 
 * 11) We judge ourselves harshly and have a very low sense of self-esteem. 
 * 12) We are dependent personalities who are terrified of abandonment and will do anything to hold on to a relationship in order not to experience painful abandonment feelings, which we received from living with sick people who were never there emotionally for us. 
 * 13) Alcoholism is a family disease; we became para-alcoholics and took on the characteristics of that disease even though we did not pick up the drink. 
 * 14) Para-alcoholics are reactors rather than actors. 
 “The Workplace Laundry List” - this is an excerpt from pages 417-19 1 We confuse our boss or supervisor with our alcoholic parent(s) or qualifier and have similar relationship patterns, behaviors, and reactions that are carry-overs from childhood. 2 We confuse our co-workers with our siblings or our alcoholic parent(s) and repeat childhood reactions in those working relationships. 3 We expect lavish praise and acknowledgment from our boss for our efforts on the job. 4 Authority figures scare us and we feel afraid when we need to talk to them. 5 We get a negative “gut reaction” when dealing with someone who has the physical characteristics or mannerisms of our alcoholic qualifier. 6 We have felt isolated and different from everyone around us, but we don’t really know why. 7 We lose our temper when things upset us rather than dealing with problems productively. 8 We busy ourselves with our co-workers’ jobs, often telling them how to do their work. 9 We can get hurt feelings when co-workers do things socially together without asking us, even though we have not made an effort to get to know them and join in the social life. 10 We are afraid to make the first move to get to know a co-worker better, thinking they will not like us or approve of us. 11 We usually do not know how to ask for what we want or need on the job, even for little things. 12 We do not know how to speak up for ourselves when someone has said or done something inappropriate. We try desperately to avoid face-to-face confrontations. 13 We are sensitive and can get extremely upset with any form of criticism of our work. 14 We want to be in charge of every project or activity, feeling more comfortable when we are in control of every detail, rather than letting others be responsible. 15 We may be the workplace “clown” to cover up our insecurities or to get attention from others. 16 We are people-pleasers and may take on extra work, or our co-workers’ tasks, in order to be liked and receive approval from others. 17 We do not know how to be assertive in getting our needs met or expressing a concern. We may have to repeatedly rehearse our comments before delivering them. 18 We have felt that we do not deserve a raise, promotion, better workspace, or a better job. 19 We do not know how to set boundaries, and we let others interrupt us. We can accept more work without knowing how to say ‘no’ appropriately. 20 We are perfectionists about our own work and expect others to be the same and have the same work ethics and values. 21 We become workaholics because it gives us a feeling of self-worth we did not get as a child. 22 We may jump from job to job, looking for the perfect position as the substitute for the secure and nurturing home environment we did not have. 23 We get upset when people do things that affect us or our work without asking us first. 24 We have a high tolerance for workplace dysfunction and tend to stick it out in an unhappy job because we lack the self-esteem to leave.

yes in that topic I have experience since Childhood till adult: Childhood trauma or wrong perceptions through abortion memories, to be a chimera with my twinbrother, and possibly adopted old thoughts-behavior patterns through this, based on what our divorce parents / grandparents once tell us lie and showed us through. Nearby I lead the soulpiece with the QHHT in 2019, out my system. But the Topic is for a lot of people from interesting. Because I get help about the knowlegde about the right and left brain. What tools to make better use of our brain to change our RNA / DNA today as adults. Thank you for this feedback area and for being open to our suggestions!

Please! This one!

Hi Andrew, Thank you for your generosity. I want to know how to quit my sugar addiction. With tobacco, for example, one can completely eliminate it and never have it in the body again. But with sugar, because it is in so many things, what effect does having small doses, like in tomato sauce, bread etc have on the ability avoid sugar cravings.

Yeah, this. The neuroscience of addiction and sobriety after addiction. I've been prescribed Adderall for nearly 10 years but I'll often go through phases where I'll use it for a few years, not touch the stuff for a few years, repeat. It's always such a slippery slope using that stuff again because life really doesn't have that same SPARK or POP to it for a long while after discontinuing use. I wonder how messed up my brain is long term? Thanks

Yes, brain changes of addiction (opioid given that epidemic) over decades, sugar addiction, analysis of med assistants like Suboxone. Love the podcast, thank you so much for sharing.

Hey I’ve got some really great news to share with you, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died on a cross and resurrected on the third day so you may all have eternal life.

Another up vote.

Well done Kevin great question i agree would also like to know take care

I would absolutely love to learn more about this, so I thought I'd "vote twice" by commenting. (I'm from Chicago, where we supposedly "vote often.") Thanks!

@@deannachrones8660 great, hopefully others will!

Yes! I'm so curious about binaural beats.

Acoustic Brainwave Entrainment

@@mikealley4989 432 Hertz used to be what we heard but they've done away with it since maybe the '30's! and that was/is so much better for us! I can no longer suffer 440 and most of what is called "music" today!

Dr. Huberman's lab is more about the brain and combatting fear than nutrition. Check out Dr. Michael Greger or Dr. Will Bulsiewicz for nutrition stuff.

Love that topic!

Bump.

I am in my 30s, but the last couple of years seen a steady decline in the mental speed and acuity. I'm also eager to learn some ways to regain them back and if it's possible to rewire your brain for peak performance at all times. Thank you!

Ditto to this suggestion

Yes please!

Yes; ovecoming addiction, and useful tools to avoid relapse

Great topic! How does Dr Huberman feel about the "Digital Minimalism" approach, as explored by Cal Newport in his namesake's book? BTW, I have taken Twitter and FB off my cell-phone, so just using the web-based on my laptop, but no more "doom-scrolling" for me. Oh and sleep...

Building on this - would love to know more about the basics of the mechanisms are work in the ADD/ADHD mind; how to “self medicate” with supplements that work with acetylcholine, norepinephrine, GABA, dopamine, serotonin - am I missing any others? The Vagus nerve? Everything is SO interconnected I don’t know where to end my questions! Would love to know the basics about this for other ADHDers to use a starting point for taking control of their diagnosis for the goal of getting off meds like adderall, strattera, vyvance, focalin(I personally take), etc. THANK YOU for starting this podcast! I am nerding out!!

Very important topic. I’d love to see the neuroscience behind the key traits behind ADHD...things like the lack of your own internal brain coach; lack of episodic memory; etc

Yes this

Yes I want this too 😊

Yes! As a mother of two kids (and 3 pets) and the one that has responsibilities for organizing a household of 4 (all who more than likely have ADHD - not sure about my two kids, but they definitely exhibit major symptoms and we all definitely struggle) I would like to know any and all there is to know about ADHD. I feel like I'm struggling, behind, and just about failing at it.. every day. I was diagnosed just a few years ago (in my mid 30's) with ADHD, SCT, and a couple of other things *sigh*.... We - my family and I - struggle every single day. With all of it - lack of focus, hyperactivity, disorganized (house is a wreck a lot of the time and can't seem to catch up - ever!), sensitivities, strong big emotions, major executive functioning issues, time management/time blindness, impulses, hyper-focusing and transitioning/changing tasks, task initiation is a big one for me, specifically. All of it. This is such a problem and issue in my life... I feel desperate to learn more about it, and for how to improve my life, and the lives of my family members! I'd love to know about prescription meds (such as Adderall) and what you think about that, as well as other things that could greatly help those who struggle with ADHD. I have also been diagnosed with SCT (Sluggish Cognitive Tempo) so I'd love to know anything there is to know about that, as well. We also struggle with anxiety and depression as well. Oh, and also... perhaps focusing both on children who have strong symptoms or who have been diagnosed, as well as focusing on adults... and perhaps even focusing on the differences between men with ADHD and women with ADHD (because I've heard there are definitely differences?!) Thank you so much Dr. Huberman for all that you do! I LOVE your videos and have been binge-watching them. Thanks so much! You have a way with teaching, and knowing how to describe things so anyone can understand them, and I just want you to know that I SO appreciate what you're doing. Thank you!

Yes! Please recommend any books or individuals who you think are great resources! Also, focus.

Ooj ya I've been looking at books and am stuck on what to get plus i barely read but have newfound interest in the brain and psychology so i need a good book

@@TKHen huh

Yes to book recommendations

#neuroeducation

Yep, autism and its genetics , it’s relation to gender, dyslexia, and epilepsy. Specifically, my daughter has a severe form, are my son’s children more likely to be affected by ASD?

On this topic I'd also like to add in how is it that many people with autism have almost super human capabilities. For example muscle strength, ability to glance at a pile of scattered match sticks and quickly state how many are there (Rainman movie). Understand certain skills as if second nature. Hyper-focus on specific objects. Many of them have incredible skills!

Yes as a mother of a teen autistic son please any/all info will be helpful SOS

I second this motion

Yes!!!! 👍👍

Yesss I am so fascinated by this! “If you want a new idea, read an old book” - philosophy has been so eye opening and that along with critical thinking is really the crux of everything in life! (At least from what I’ve gathered) would love to hear your thoughts Andrew!

Yes!!!!!!

@@rubydreams6345 🥰

Hey Mr Bomber... you probably are quite a sweet person, yet look at your name, LOL, it conjures up the image of a vigilante. I mean... 💣10mrbomber🚀 that alone conjures up "fight or flight". Just saying...

@@silviopina_111 thanks for ur input, first its just a name never judge by a username, i made it when i was a kid anyways, also deep breathing has helped me significantly boosting my lung capaciteee! Wim hof method bbyy

@@Poetry4Peace LOL! I never saved my edited post last night. 😂 Anyways, as I mentioned there, I was "just saying". Also, Mr B... I was not judging you, I was merely sharing a feeling I got from your name... or maybe as Dr Huberman would say... a "state". ⚡💢 Ok, you really don't have to read the rest, I'm just having a little playful fun with you (don't we all need more playfulness and fun?- at least I do…). 😜 And Happy New Year to you!!!🎉🎊 Since we are talking about the brain🧠 here, I'll share the “story my neurons told me” when I saw your name and read your message. In my mind when I read your name and I see the picture of a muscly dude staring me down pointing a gun at me, I sense "belligerent" (wants to get into a fight). If that was real, I’d go “fight or flight?”. I was not judging you, Mr B, it’s me sharing my reaction to your name. I think what happened here is a great example of half the stuff that goes on out there, like people say words, meaning is attached to words and things escalate. I am not saying you and I are escalating, but that’s one way for it to happen: 1) You have fun with your name and avatar (and for you it’s just a name) 2) I see a “vigilante” and tell you what I see 3) You tell me I should not judge your name (but I didn’t) and so on and so forth. If we were in a Star Wars type cantina, maybe we’d get into a fight. Or maybe I would just “FLIGHT” LOL! Also if you use that avatar inside the video-game universe, it has an effect, right? If you use it here, it might have a different effect. I am pretty sure (another assumption LOL) you are waaaaay younger than me, so that’s another thing… End of story. Sorry for being soooo long-winded and thank you for reading if you did read the whole thing :-) I really look forward to Prof. Huberman’s tools for “de-escalating” our internal conflicts. 🐒 🙈🙉🙊 I started trying the “panoramic” view, if I feel my blood boiling, although I have ADHD and I mostly need sharp focus and staying on task for my work. 🎯 So I’m trying the “long inhale, quick exhale” pumping in the morning. Then I also need the “calm down” breathing, cause I get anxiety when I see I am running out of time and I haven’t accomplished anything… and then I freeze and I get super-tired...so now I have to do the "calm down" technique AND the "energizing" one at the same time?😂😜😂 Take care Mr B! ☺️ :-)

Can you tell me what JRE is? Would love to view that

Joe Rogan experience

Hi im no expetrt but i recommend looking at my teenage year, sports are the best to divert teenagers attention.

Yes! Habits are the compounded interest of self improvement so bad habits of self destruction and they are deep seeded and tend to rule our lives. If we redirect those we can shape the future we want, even if in bad places. Don’t have to be Goggins about it, but surely there are many scientific tools for the average person, yes?

What Rach said and also - particularly interested in sound/music and how it relates to the brain. How can one create/write music to help induce certain states for those listening (whether through bpm, waves, frequencies, etc.) and SYNESTHESIA (why some people see certain colors when they hear certain keys of music)...last but not least, getting better at reducing procrastination and increasing focus.

Ooo sounds fascinating!

And anxiety at night when during the day it seems under control. Tools tricks tips on getting the mind in order when you wake up. How to get better deeper sleep so that small disturbances (physical and auditory) do now wake you up.

Yes. I rarely have a panic attack that doesn't start when am relaxed enough to doze off. I can have a normal day and then when I start to doze off, bam, adrenaline surges through me like electricity (actually feels like a surge or wave of electricity), or it wakes me out of sleep, and the waves of adrenaline continue for hours or all night. I've heard this called a "nocturnal panic attack" but it's kinda confusing because I'm usually just really tired or worn out and not anxious before they happen. So why is it considered a panic disorder as though it's mental and not simply a physical problem?

@@whiterock2815 Yeh and I wake up tired but ready to get into the day like my body is saying "who needs sleep anyway". Napping would be a dream come true! I struggle to get through Nidra lol. And the cycle begins again when the lights go out. I should say that I have been through diagnosed adrenal burnout and I am curious how low levels of hormones (cortisol) are related. This is all part of the work trying to recover. What I do do: Dim all lights and only have on floor lights after sunset, get outside sunset and sunrise, have a lightbox (helped my mood immensely), I take magnesium threonate and theanine and tryptophan (I personally have experienced that this helps with dreams) along with a plethora of other supplements. I was taking melatonin which helped but I don't need it.

Please try reading "The Body Keeps the Score" xx

YES! Me too! I'd love some more specific guidelines, like "this long after sunrise", "this high in the sky", if one benefits from looking anywhere in the "blue-yellow" light, etc. You mentioned "contrast" and have a pic in the Stanford lecture taken in the direction of the sun... is that what you mean by contrast? You mean the contrast of a tree or building or mountain with the sun behind it? In that case are you suggesting we look in the general area of the sunrise?

YES! Join the club, I think lots of us are asking about that. I would love to decrease my medication use. Especially since, unlike antidepressants, stimulants CAN be taken on a "per need" basis and on the days one needs them, so I wouldn't feel like I would be doing anything medically not recommended.

And implications for *everyone* else since its a *spectrum* and how the pharmacology that is used to treat adhd works and the brain science behind it =)

Great! And if possible the difference between supporting ADHD on children with conventional medicine and homeopathic treatments.

How about Touch therapy to heal pains

@@AmitSachdevaStudio Of course, that's all part of the healing detail I mentioned. My apologies if that wasn't clear. Thank you for adding it in. :)

I’d be interested in how to incorporate access to the autonomous nervous system through breath work into touch (massage) therapy.

There are so many bodywork techniques this study could do wonders for. some can be done to the self. This would be more useful for me in classroom teaching. small exercises to break up the lesson/work day and 'check in' time, patting their own body, breathing, physical movement, warm palms on the eye sockets. Ways to self regulate their own feelings, thoughts, motivation and learning. Tools for life, mastery of the self. So much irrelevant stuff taught at school

...and to build on this... eating disorders and the relationship that those and food have with the brain, as well as any effects eating disorders have on the brain. I have struggled unfortunately with two different types of eating disorders (most recently binge eating), and I feel like my relationship with food as always been a struggle. One of my eating disorder therapists explained something about how the brain is changed when someone has an eating disorder, and if that is true...I'd love to know more about that and how all of that works.

Yessss stress management!

Hey I’ve got some really great news to share with you, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died on a cross and resurrected on the third day so you may all have eternal life. If you believe and repent of your sins and put your faith and trust in Him as you would a parachute jumping off a plane at 25000 feet up in the air, He will give you eternal life in heaven as a free gift and I promise you, He will change your life forever as He did mine. He is the ONLY way to heaven and He loves you all. Please think deeply about this with urgency because this is your eternal life and soul, you don’t know when you could die, meaning you could die at any moment, so please consider this with all your heart. If anyone tells you that Jesus isn’t the only way, they are lying to you and they don’t care about your future.

Yes, I would also love for Dr. Huberman to research the work of Joe Dispenza as well!

Yes!

Yes please

Me too! Brilliant suggestion!

Awesome! ❤️

Yes! So important for navigating life. knowing who and what we are is the key!

To your first question, yes, there are differing natural predispositions toward physical versus mental activity. One of my entrepreneurial friends is very physically active and cannot stay still for long. On the other hand, I can easily binge-watch lectures for several hours at a time and enjoy the stillness of yoga nidra and can spend several hours working on math problems with students, even skipping meals, lol. We both enjoy hiking, however. You can train yourself to become equally adept at starting both routines with practice and repetition, but it would require some trial and error. As for the apps, some people can use them better than others to their own advantage. A social media influencer would be one such example. Also, I have used Reddit and KZfaq personally to teach myself life-changing skills and ask questions when stuck. KZfaq also happens to be my main source of entertainment, but I often watch content to broaden my knowledge and/or to study people. User experience will vary.

The gut! and the heart! yes! Good points!

THIS

Same here. Also if not OK to look at light with sunglasses, how does one protect from Pterygium causing UV?

Vitreous humor separation prevention things to heal it. Cataracts causes, how to reverse them

Or also Yoga Nidra vs Self Hypnosis. We need scripts. I went to Reveri. It's great, but I hate having to use Alexa app. I have it on my phone, I hate the bot, I don't want to be online when I fall asleep.

@@silviopina_111 yeah. I agree with you. I tried that and the Alexa thing kinda ruined it for me. But definitely self hypnosis would be nice to compare with other techniques as well.

@@zanigma1 Ah, there, I am sure they went for it because they needed the interactivity, but until we can choose something less intrusive than Alexa, I think I will keep looking for other options, even if they are not interactive. Right now the best option seems to be podcasts. You Tube videos work too, but they would need to be downloaded. Podcasts I can download, then play it before sleep with my phone set on airplane mode. So I have been looking for both yoga Nidra AND self hypnosis podcasts and found "too many" (as an ADHDr I hate too much choice, LOL). If anybody reading or even Prof. Huberman would chime in with any recommendations/links, it would be great.

such as ... shopping, judging others, OCD, hoarding, repetitive attachment to deep emotion- wallowing. You have touched on this. Rewards by dopamine, familiarity. Ways to break the cycle

I especially liked Andrew's comment on grief when we have lost someone and can move on but keep gratitude for the time we had without focusing on the loss. Grief can be crippling

Yes, very interesting question, also, as far as the benefits of a moving scenery from self propelled motion... Any difference/pros/cons benefits of difference of going FORWARDS or BACKWARDS? I started walking backwards this morning, since I wanted to keep looking at the blue-yellow light. Hadn't done it in a while, but found it very stimulating, I am sure my brain was quite confused. Prof Huberman, you are responsible for my silly walk, ahah! I did get a few amused looks too...

EMDR works with bi-lateral brain stimulation and this can be achieved via visual stimulation (rapid eye movement) or touching opposite sides- as your therapist did. They key is stimulating the two difference sides of the brain in a rapid way and the guided thought/reflection. I’ve also done EMDR and had incredible results from only a handful of sessions. It’s mind-bending how well it works. So much so that it logically took me time to reconcile that I had actually “processed” the trauma because it seemed too good to be true.

​@@sammixxx very interesting. Thank you. Makes sense. I'll definitely do more research on that. I remember when I was in massage school being introduced to Brain Gyms, and that instructor used that term. This is all so fascinating. Thanks! :) Oh, and yes, EMDR is truly miraculous.

Yes please, and what about those "left right" eye exercise?
