This is episode 4 of a 6-part special series on sleep with Dr. Matthew Walker, Ph.D., a professor of neuroscience and psychology at the University of California, Berkeley, and author of the best-selling book "Why We Sleep." In this episode, we discuss the relationship between sleep, learning and creativity.
We explain why and how sleep before and after a learning bout can improve memory and performance for both cognitive tasks and physical skills. We also discuss how to use time learning and sleep, how to use naps, non-sleep deep rest states, and caffeine to optimize learning, and the mechanisms for sleep and memory consolidation.
We also explain the critical role that sleep plays in creativity and one's ability to discover novel solutions to challenges and problems.
This episode is filled with actionable information on using sleep to enhance skill learning and improve memory and creativity.
The next episode in this guest series explains how sleep benefits emotional regulation and mental health.

Dr. Walker has repeatedly been saying, "You should wake up feeling refreshed." After realizing I wake up every day feeling groggy, his statement finally sunk in. The last few days I've gone to bed just 30 minutes earlier and I have, indeed, been waking up feeling refreshed. I can actually concentrate for much longer on my work now. THANK YOU BOTH for this series!

I started watching this podcast with the intent of watching for a few minutes then come back to it later, but 45 minutes into it I’m still standing here unable to walk away. This happens every time a new podcast comes out. So much information, so clearly presented, so vital for our everyday life. Clearly you have a gift to make this information so accessible and interesting so thank you for that. And my 70-year-old sleep deprived brain is particularly interested in this series. I already see improvements in my sleep so thank you for that too.

Pillars of Health!(01:44:38)👍 What are the six things that make the greatest contribution to good health? 1) Sleep? Yes, got it. Including sunlight and darkness? 2) Good nutrition? and 3) Movement? Most people would probably agree. 4) Social connection - relationship to others? 5) Thoughts - relationship to one self? I'm so glad that you, Dr. Huberman, have made episodes on mental health, meditation and science of gratitude. 6) Environment? e.g. coping with heat waves, air pollution (PM2.5 etc.), spending time in nature (podcast AMA #10), and vitamin D from sunlight. I mean, the environment is different if you live in Bel Air or in downtown Los Angeles, or in the area of Death Valley, CA. The environment you live in will affect your health. Maybe a seventh category could be added: society? Things that also matter are availability of clean water, health care, education, work to make a living, and so on. There are differences between living in Tijuana in Mexico and living in Aspen, CO. I got the inspiration to write the questions and the six categories above, after having read the book "Halsogatan" by Dr Anders Wallensten, MD. (This book was published in 2020, and is not in english.) In the country where I live we have our own "local Dr Hubermans". One of them is Dr Wallensten, and I think the most famous one is Dr Anders Hansen (author of "The Attention Fix" (2023) and other books).

I have taught music for over 60 years. Decades ago I found that when students who had spent hours working on a difficult passage without accomplishment stopped working and returned to the piano/organ again after an interval of sleep, they were able to play the passage with ease. There are many other very interesting and dependably regular occurrences in the study of music. As both student and teacher of classical organ, I have had the unique opportunity of realizing the extended components, idiosyncrasies and benefits involved in brain/muscle/music synchronization. There is yet much to be learned in music/brain connection.

Dr. Huberman, I think you should not compare yourself to anyone else and whatever pressure has been put on you over these past years as you have grown, I pray that they go away. You are saving humanity and bringing together so much information that we would not be able to grasp without your guidance along the way. You are a one of the great ones in history, over all the extremists, because you literally help put it all together and use the examples in such a way that they can be applied with a non-trampling method. You are a modern-day hero and are changing the face of humanity with an unwavering impact that is genuine and filled with personal grit we all can agree on. Thank you bro, God Bless your life! (you have changed my life and I pass on what I can)

I have been struggling with sleep literally since before I was born (according to mom I was very active at night during pregnancy). I have a terrible memory and don't remember much of my life in any type of linear fashion and have alot of trouble focusing. Last night was a rare night I got a bit over 7 hours and I feel amazing. Still haven't been able to cure my insomnia but these conversations are an invaluable resource and great motivation to keep trying. Thank you Matt and Andrew!

Related to the pianist, I am an opera singer, and the process for learning a role is very organized. I learn a new part of the role, then sing through the entire role including the part I just learned, then I sleep. The next day, not only do I know what I practiced better, but I seem to have a head start on the parts I haven’t yet learned, but had only listened to in a casual way previously.

This series continues to delight. I was particularly interested in the reference Dr Walker made to people carrying out, what could be regarded as 'awake' activities while sleeping. I read an interesting article 'Confessions of a Sleepwalker by Decca Aitkenhead in the Sunday Times (London) just this Sunday past (April 21) which discussed the author's experience with non-REM parasomnia. He references Prof Guy Leschziner , a consultant neurologist at Guy's and St Thomas who runs a leading sleep clinic in the UK, who recounted the story of a lady who rode her motorbike in her sleep. I believe some have used this extraordinary condition to defend murder charges. What we do in our sleep is so interesting! One thing I would like to take issue with, however, is that 'concretizing' is not a real word Dr Walker. You may have been playing that well known game 'who can get the most ridiculous word into this podcast/meeting' with Dr Huberman, but made up words do not count - so no points for you. Also, Dr Huberman, you are looking exhausted, please take some time to yourself...we need you fighting fit to do what you do so well. Thanks again gents, smashing podcast.

I have a few comments. 1) Rate of Respiration and sleep: I have been observing my 10 months old son (of course, since I started listening to this series) and I fell that there is a connection between rate of respiration and different stages of sleep. If memory reply and different stages of sleep can regulate rate of respiration, then rate of respiration could also help us be in different brain frequency (during meditation). I think there is some connection between different stages of sleep and rate of respiration.

@FoursWithin Ай бұрын

Interesting observations. Pretty sure the ideal or average respiration rates are different for toddlers, young child, teens and adults. And also such differences for "standard" brain oscillation rhythms. Which is supposedly part of the reason children can learn so much easier than the average adult.

You mentioned sleep deprivation effect in hormones such as estrogen, LH, testosterone etc. I wonder what really happens to our sleep during the menstrual cycle. How does physiology work in those times? How do you optimize sleep during the menstrual cycle? It seems to me some people need more sleep, and some can't sleep much and still feel energetic. I am good enough at optimizing my sleep using all you said since the beginning of the Huberman lab podcasts, but when the time comes to the menstrual cycle, all my settings change, and I am not in control anymore. I would appreciate it if you could discuss this with Dr.Walker.

@smile645 Ай бұрын

For me it's not that I wake up in REM sleep paralysis, but rather upon awakening at night and trying to fall back to sleep (which always happens after 4,5 hours of sleep) after having trouble falling back to sleep oftentimes. If somehow I'm falling asleep after being awake for a longer period of time (+/- 1-2 hours) I'm FULLY aware of it which wakes me up again. I experience all of the hypnagogic phenomena and feeling those electric like sensations throughout my body and the ear deafening sound, as if something in my brain is going in overdrive. I need to be fully calm and imagine myself leaving my body to force myself into sleep, which regularly succeeds after 2-3 tries. Because I'm in a lucid state I need to proactively stay calm in my dream to be asleep which lasts only like 1-2 minutes on the first successful try. The problem is that once this happens it's the only way to sleep for the rest of the night, as I will have lost the ability to enter sleep unconscious. The more I successfully enter this forced lucid REM state, the easier it gets to re-enter it and extend the duration each time until my alarm goes off. The sleep is not really restful, but better then nothing. The weird thing for me is that leaving my body always results in entering a shadowy version of reality that is often times very empty of people and feels very strange, like I'm a ghost in an abandoned reality (I nicknamed it the shadow realm lol). Maybe when I'm in a later stage of this the dreams get a bit more vivid with more people in it. I'm awaiting my sleep study to see if there is an underlying condition that makes it more likely I experience this. When this phenomenon doesn't happen and I'm able to fall back to sleep relatively quickly upon awakening I will still experience fragmented sleep, usually awakening 3-5 times more, always when I'm in REM sleep. Any thoughts on this? Does anyone experience something similar? I'm diagnosed with ADHD, which already heightens the chance of sleeping poorly.

Its a shame that not everyone hears this information nor wants to learn it. I work in one of the worst school districts in the U.S (Clark County) and I truly believe that if this information were to be taught to students and repeated year after year in the form of a class, regarding exercise, sleep, diet and sunlight it would be a key component to better schools Nation wide. Of course we dont live in an ideal world yet and parents play a huge role in kids implementing these habits but I just know that having this fine information taught would help significantly all around.

1. I would love to hear Dr. Huberman's and Dr. Matt Walker's advice on the following 2. I need to get up earlier than my usual wakeup time, what is the optimal protocol for this, maybe using a consumer sleep tracker? 3. What is the effect of NSDR, Hatha Yoga, Weight Training, Meditation on sleep? 4. Due to social (raising a family) or work commitments (international shifts etc) if one cannot get the prescribed 7-9 hours of sleep but say 6, what's the next best way to fulfill the gap? (Any specific methods in pt 3 also) 5. How to stop bad dreams , waking up from nightmares, waking up with a sweat? 6. If one doesn't have access to natural sunlight in one's room, how effective is home automation of Air-conditioning and Artificial lighting? (Devices can be turned on or off, intensity varied based on time and or consumer sleep trackers) 7. How accurate are consumer sleep trackers? Mobile phones kept next to you measure sleep stages with gyroscopic movement, smart watches additionally add pulse rate calculation as well? 8. Methods to stop snoring apart from surgical interventions. 9. If weight training is only possible in evening suggest a protocol to reduce cortisol at the time of falling asleep. 10. If I'm exposed to bright artificial lights in the evening / night, as in a home recording studio an optimal protocol to go back to sleep? 11. If I slep less the previous day and I'm feeling drowsy during normal waking hours and am unable to work etc should I take a nap, should I take a stimulant like coffee to keep me up till my normal bedtime? 12. Protocols for naps / power naps? Especially wrt to duration / sleep cycles. A bed may not be available at this time. 13. Olfactory (smell) protocols for good sleep. Thanks for everything Andrew!

Prof Huberman, thank you very much for this series. Could you please ask Dr. Walker about snoozing? I have been struggling to get out of bed in the morning for most of my life. Putting the alarm at the other end of the room does not work: I get up, shut it up, go back to bed and repeat that 2-6 times. It is impacting the quality of my mornings and making them more stressful. I would be really grateful for some advice on snoozing, how detrimental it is and what can be done to solve the issue. Thank you!

Some imp points of this discussion: 1. We need sleep before learning to tell the memory to lay the new traces so it has the capacity to do so, and also after learning to make sure the new traces and paths are cemented and saved for the future. 2. The question that many of ask is that I can definitely use the time of which i have dedicated to sleep to read the material again and again and I can surely remember that the next day better, isn't that a good rule to go by? well short term yes but long term the one who has slept enough while learning something will definitely remember the information than the one who has not slept enough. So it has not gone to their long term memory, or sort of saying it has not been cemented to their memory. so that is why we need sleep after learning. 3. sleeping after learning is like clicking on the save button after filling an excel sheet. So if there were enough words to explain the importance of sleep after learning... 4. It is amazing to see how there have been always a great deal of inspirational stories that have been turned to reality after having a good night of sleep, but we have always paid less to no attention. 5. so remember it is not practice that makes perfect rather practice with a bout of sleep that makes perfect.

Hey Dr. Huberman. You and I both grew up about the same way. Skateboarding and all. Im persuing a degree in Neuroscience and would love to continue into a Doctrine in the long term. Thankyou for making this podcast. ❤

Great series. Would like to hear about depression naps, how emotional labour the day before affects sleep that night. And how sleep if different for a clinically depressed person.

It was good to hear Dr. Walker discuss the real drawbacks of the typical medications--the sedative-hypnotic benzodiazepines and z-drugs--prescribed for sleep issues, but I'd really like to hear his opinion on other agents. I'd especially like to know what he thinks about the TCAs and Tetracyclics, which promote sleep through blockage of a histamine receptor, and which I understand to promote much healthier sleep than benzos and z-drugs. Ditto to low-dose Seroquel (i.e., < 50 mg), which has the H1 blocking mechanism in common. (However, on a side but related note, I've also read that with *many* antidepressants will significantly reduce REM sleep--the MAOIs actually resulting in sometimes near no REM at all!) It'd also be really cool to hear what he thinks about Xyrem (Sodium Oxybate), as I know how useful it is in narcolepsy and that sometimes physicians will even turn to this agent--despite difficulty of getting it prescribed--for insomnia when nothing else works because of how effective it is at promoting healthy deep sleep.
