The reason for the increased learning availability is caused by increased pathways to the unconscious, I'm a long-time yoga teacher and happy to answer a few questions
I LOVE that yoga nidra is going mainstream, it is such a transformational practice for sleep, nervous system and emotional awareness. Thank you for sharing it with the world !
Sharing my Yoga Nidra experience. This year I started to do yoga nidra almosy every day, 15-25 minutes after hearing about it on Hubberman lab. What Hubberman says about its affect on learning is ABSOLUTELY true to the point where I'd consider it the biggest life hack ive ever found. I studied and took my Fundementals of engineering exam this year, almost 5 years out of school. Most people take 3-4 months studying 2-3 hours a day. I approximated i needed about 300 hours to study for it. I started studying and studied just 2-3 hours each day and usually did Yoga Nidra after, mainly because I feel more awake afterwards. I started getting great scores on my practice exams a few weeks into it and decided Id sign up and give the full exam a chance. I took it, and passed on my first try after just 5 weeks of studying. Maybe 75 hours total. I was a C+ average student i college and I am straight up BAFFLED how i pulled that off. The only things i can think of are Yoga Nidra and actually managing my ADHD when studying.
I feel you brother, I took FE exam 7yrs after school. I was educated and trained in Europe as a structural engineer where I spent 5yrs working in different countries, then landed the job across the ocean (Canada), decided to stay and get my P.Eng., weirdly enough the engineering association ordered me to pass the FE exam in the US... It was hard, especially since in Europe civil engineers don't study wastewater and traffic engineering (those are separate divisions from civil engineering) so I had to bring all those back to speed and also math etc. I was quite cocky at first and just went to take the exam after like 2 weeks of studying, I failed. Then I studied hard for 2-3hrs a day and about 6hrs on weekends for 3 months, weirdly enough I passed but I was a nervous wreck. I wish I knew about yoga, meditation and all the other practices.
I was introduced to Yin Yoga and Yoga Nidra ~3 years ago. Both are incredible at calming the "monkey brain." Both are life changing. I like Ally Boothroyd on youtube. She has a very soothing voice.
Only problem she promotes her courses at the end of the audios, which is quite disappointing to end a yoga nidra session with an add, I mean she could just put the courses on the description
I was trained to be a yoga nidra facilitator by Kamini Desai! Yoga Nidra is definitely life changing. ❤ Thank you for sharing this with your community!
Yoga Nidra is soooo relaxing. The yogis and mystics of long ago were so wise to have known this all along... I love that Dr. Huberman studies Eastern practices and philosophy, and is bringing to light the measurable effects and benefits of these practices. 🙏
Wow, that's incredible and I'm super happy for u! How long did it take to heal your ptsd? Can u share what u did exactly? I'm about to start emdr and am always looking for other things that can help
@@summersalix I battled for 12 years.. no need to take that long. I bought the Gupta program because the PTSD was affecting my physical health at that time. What I eventually did was find my truth and understand the history of negative programming within. Told myself that being a crybaby was not in the book of Love. Learned that gratitude is reciprocal and that energy begets like energy. Once in practice of positive self talk for about a year I was back... the amygdala gets stuck but Love will break it free. Dont force anything.. sleep will come... Yoga Nidra was the icing on the cake. I still use Ally Boothroyds guided youtube meditations 3 times a week. My wife loves the videos... they work. If I’m waiting in line I will calm myself in breath and meditate. No more agitation, no more angst... its liberating.
@@dawnjordan-musil3316 love the shit out of yourself... literally! Peace ,courage and infinite Love be yours ❤️💪.. your suffering be no more, you are now a soldier of Love... Dawn, understanding is true forgiveness... the cruelty and ignorance you were exposed to had nothing to do with you... you were just caught in its path. No more
@@MackB2023 thank u so much for your reply! I've heard good things abt the Gupta program... Do u recommend it? I'd love to hear more about your experience with it. I'm trying emdr but it's been tough for me. I'm considering rTMS but wish psychedelic therapy was available. I like your philosophy on finding ur truth and decoding the negative programming, as well as the importance of graditude and love. My amygdala is very stuck indeed, but a huge part of my trauma was due to love...an abusive kind. So it's been hard understanding what healthy love is vs unhealthy love. I'm so happy to hear ur ptsd has improved and that you've discovered some amazing tools and life philosophies that have molded u into the person u are today. U inspire me greatly!
I am 17. I want to let the other people my age that Yoga Nidra [NSDR] is crucial when it comes to learning and mindfulness. Ten Minutes a day can give us drastic attention spans and retention of information. Thank you, Dr. Andrew Huberman.
Also a BIG fan of yoga nidra. Also, in 1975 I was doing TM regularly and taking an electronics course and actually read the thick textbook including every chapter, paragraph, sentence and all the diagrams. I aced all the exams and passed the course with straight As. I NEVER read a complete textbook before or after this experience. TM allowed me to relax into the material. A phd doctor Grob wrote that book.
@@csamai There are different types of yoga nidra. All of them will lead you not only to relaxation but as well to gowth on a spiritual level. This is the only technique which parallely engagges left and right brain hemisphere while u r doing nothing.😊 Just following the instructions given. What is miracules is sankalp (resolution, intention). Its a seed u water every time u enter yoga nidra state. If it is formulated well it is a vehicle for miracles. Im here if u have more questions. 💫
Many more aspects of Indian wisdom has yet not been discovered by The Western Countries they just think Yoga and Meditation is the only thing that was originated in India but there are 100s of such concepts and practices which just blew my mind when i got to know that Indians have been practicing since 1000s of years
Yes, Indian meditative practices are super helpful. It was what the yogis practiced in the olden days...They in fact, had no books to learn from...it was the collective practices that they engaged in and were mostly self learned..they tend to be so valuable... We Indians have disowned our own treasure of knowledge... but the younger Indians are going back to their roots...and recognising the wealth of knowledge that our ancestors possessed..and trying to bring it out into the open..
@@lalit1729 sunrise and sunset (like when the sky gets funky) are best but anytime except right before bed or after a meal because you might fall asleep
@@lalit1729 you may have a hard time at first but eventually you can build up to like 90 min and then doing that for a few months solves your internal like a Rubik’s cube and you’ll only need it like here and there when stressed and only for like 10-15 min probably
@@santeenl yes you can even do it standing if you have real good balance. Wherever you are try to feel head to toes. Closing your eyes and focusing on what you feel. Don’t move. It can be just for a moment
I really liked that Andrew didn't changed Yoga Nidra to NSDR to demean the Yoga Culture but he did it so that people all over the world will do it without worrying about religions or any other thing and can take all the benefits from these divine ancient techniques cause in one video I saw a Christian priest was saying that "Yoga asanas & practices are a way to bowing down and offering obeciences to Hindu Gods and Goddesses so Christians shouldn't do it" 😂😂😂 I mean seriously. So I am very happy he did that 😊.
I'm happy that at least one of the western scientists accepted that Yoga Nidra was renamed.. It needs real honesty for someone to quote their source of inspiration.
I listened to a 15 minute yoga nidra meditation but after 6 minutes I was very relaxed and fell into a light sleep. I hadn't even realised or felt it coming on. Around 30 minutes I woke up.
As long as you ALWAYS acknowledge the orogens/roots of what has informed NSDR … people need to start understanding the value and power of these ancient practices
*Yoga Nidra is a deep relaxation and meditative practice, originated from ancient INDIA, over 2,000 years ago. It involves conscious awareness in a sleep-like state, promoting physical and mental restoration.*
Seeing this coupled with Latt Williams' explanation of how we've been tricked into thinking there are "24 hours in a day" so we'd agree to give up 8 at a job makes me even more mad at these systems. Protect your peace, people
I'm studying Himalayan meditation , part of my level 4 yoga studies... Yoga Nidra is amazing yet very intense practice.. Before that, one should practice what is called 61 points relaxing mediation... *also practice with caution and with an experienced authentic mentor because in some medical conditions, we don't recommend either*...
Hello there, late reply. It’s meant to put you in the state between sleep and wakefulness, called the hypnagogic state - you’re neither awake nor asleep; it’s basically a state of deep relaxation
Hypnosis and Yoga Nidra are not one in the same. I for one cannot be hypnotized, a lot of people actually cant be (but yoga Nidra works for me because its a deep form of meditation with an embodiment component.) Look up eyeroll suggestibility test for hypnosis, Huberman has also talked about this on other episode of his podcast. Yoga also has 8 limbs, which include the physical postures - asana, breathework- pranayama and meditation - Dhyana. Being the main tools used today to regulate our nervous systems. I have PTSD and yoga and its aspects have profoundly changed my life. Its also a spiritual practice and id say its more important honouring a 5000 year old spiritual practice by calling it its specific name and educating people on the topic, People of colour have had enough robbed from them...
Ohh cortisol control statement i need info..I took a cortisol sponge sheriphos..it was awesome for couple days like after melatonin night sweat gave me ..
Kamini Desai th-cam.com/video/y4UmTdURBD4/w-d-xo.html Madefor th-cam.com/video/pL02HRFk2vo/w-d-xo.html And one guided by Andrew himself that I also especially like th-cam.com/video/AKGrmY8OSHM/w-d-xo.html
As for "hypnosis," people are continually hypnotized by advertising, news, culture, authorities. And they think conscious hypnosis controls them? Give me a break!!! And yoga nidra is guided but continually reminds the practitioner to simply be present.
I am confused Dr Huberman has advocated adrenaline boost by cold bath ,caffeine etc immediately after concentrated focused learning to establish baseline memory and recall ability which seems contra to non sleep deep rest where one would seek to reduce a stressful adrenaline boost response through caffeine or cold bath .
The adrenaline boost should come directly after the focused learning. NSDR can be done any time of the day. He speaks of this (Cortisol and Adrenaline) in episode 18 I think. But of course caffeine before learning can help you focus better.
overtime it helps the ADD/ADHD symptoms. just start with short durations, work up to at least 10 mins, and don’t tell yourself it has to be perfect to work bc that’s not true. good luck!
A body scan meditation is awesome. However there are a few people who don't feel comfortable with yoga due to their fear about polytheism. They feel like they are betraying their monotheistic belief.
This practice has been done in India for thousands of years now today you know it as yoga nindra or nsdr but the future generations will only know it as NSDR and no one will know that it came from india the West will patent it as they did with many other discoveries and etc
Maybe things were zero cost when this video went out but Reveri is NOT zero cost now, and if I had known that up-front I wouldn't have given them my email. So maybe a damn disclaimer would be nice.
lol a damn disclaimer to remind you if you watch old videos some things might’ve changed? or a disclaimer to remind you to read a company website before providing your email? lol come on
I love the 20 minute yoga nidra by @lizzyhill222 relaxes me straight away and I've just discovered the one that takes you straight to sleep.... perfect with 2 kids!
I haven't seen the podcast, i just discovered Huberman but i've been using Ally Boothroyd for a while, she's excellent. Loads of free Yoga Nidra videos on her channel.
brahmin is decided by work not birth , in last few 1000 years the meaning was corrupted , if u know the knowledge of yoga , vedas etc then is when u are a brahmin , even if u dont call urself that ,
@@debanjandebnath8758 There's the Brahmin caste, there's also those who follow the Brahmin path. "The term Brahmin in Indian texts has signified someone who is good and virtuous, not just someone of priestly class."
Because scientists like acronyms and people can be turned off by the name huberman, i will henceforth rename him as no chill hubris man or in short NCHM 😂. Please whenever you see mention of huberman, refer to him as NCHM coz why not. Nobody stopped him when he did the same to the name “yoga nidra” and opened doors to deracination and cultural appropriation.
I think he should refer to yoga Nidra as it is, rather than another term that is meant to appeal to people who may be close minded toward yoga/eastern practices. Are you really ‘expanding’ if you don’t go out of your comfort zone? If they never try it because of the name, that’s their loss lol. Grow up.
It’s great if NSDR helps treat high cortisol in those who would never consider taking up the same practice if it is called yoga nidra. But how do we treat their toxic masculinity and xenophobia??
... I'd have to suppress the temptation to beat it out of them with a cricket bat, but I feel it can only truly be achieved with empathy, compassion, love, patience, and without judgement. Not easy, but not impossible.

You increase alertness before intense focus, then sleep or NSDR after bouts of learning to consolidate what you learned.
The adrenaline boost should come directly after the focused learning. NSDR can be done any time of the day. He speaks of this (Cortisol and Adrenaline) in episode 18 I think. But of course caffeine before learning can help you focus better.
you don't have to do both. There are many routes to the same destination

lol a damn disclaimer to remind you if you watch old videos some things might’ve changed? or a disclaimer to remind you to read a company website before providing your email? lol come on
Surely he means ‘The Relaxation Response’
Revery is expensive!!
I love the 20 minute yoga nidra by @lizzyhill222 relaxes me straight away and I've just discovered the one that takes you straight to sleep.... perfect with 2 kids!
What apps or people did he recommend for yoga nidra?
I haven't seen the podcast, i just discovered Huberman but i've been using Ally Boothroyd for a while, she's excellent. Loads of free Yoga Nidra videos on her channel.
Same here, with Ally Boothroyd.
The names mentioned by Andrew are: Kamini Desay & Liam Gillen
@@metamonica Thank you
He also mentioned his app reverie
My favourite is with Elena Miranov.
Yoga Nidra is the secret sauce!
As a brahmin, I'm really proud of what my ancestors discovered and gave to humanity. may everyone who's a seeker get to know the truth. amen. 🕉🙏🕉
You are not a Brahmin dude, Brahmin is someone who has attained samadhi, according to definition
brahmin is decided by work not birth , in last few 1000 years the meaning was corrupted , if u know the knowledge of yoga , vedas etc then is when u are a brahmin , even if u dont call urself that ,
Brahmin is who have gone to samadhi
Not by birth
सनातनी बनो भाई जात पात में मत बटो 🙏🙏😍
@@debanjandebnath8758 There's the Brahmin caste, there's also those who follow the Brahmin path.
"The term Brahmin in Indian texts has signified someone who is good and virtuous, not just someone of priestly class."
Two of the best bouncing wisdom right AT YA!! =)
reveri - not zero cost any more ;)

Yoga is Hindu. 🙏

Kamini Dessai is not free anymore but I guess you spare 4€ to improve such an important thing as sleep

Because scientists like acronyms and people can be turned off by the name huberman, i will henceforth rename him as no chill hubris man or in short NCHM 😂. Please whenever you see mention of huberman, refer to him as NCHM coz why not. Nobody stopped him when he did the same to the name “yoga nidra” and opened doors to deracination and cultural appropriation.
Doesn't do anything for me.
I want Dr Huberman to cover Hot Yoga.
“Because they’re zero cost tools” *$150 for a yearly membership* 😂
Used to be zero cost. I emailed them that the cost is to high for me and they offered my one year free!!
don't give new names to the same thing, just use original sanskrit names, seekers will still do it, while the haters won't. 🕉❤🙏
I hope western folks do not copyright yoga nidra like other stuff such as Christian yoga & turmeric medicinal benefits😂
Kamini Desai isn't free!
I think he should refer to yoga Nidra as it is, rather than another term that is meant to appeal to people who may be close minded toward yoga/eastern practices. Are you really ‘expanding’ if you don’t go out of your comfort zone? If they never try it because of the name, that’s their loss lol. Grow up.
Agreed, how damn hard is it to honour the 5000 year old spiritual and cultural practice for what it is?
Exactly, that’s what these scientists do, try to give their own name and later claim as it is theirs.
@danielt5640 ur clearly very intelligent. Your ability to comprehend text is unparalleled
Whole lit of talking abd yet i don't feel like much was said...
It’s great if NSDR helps treat high cortisol in those who would never consider taking up the same practice if it is called yoga nidra. But how do we treat their toxic masculinity and xenophobia??
... I'd have to suppress the temptation to beat it out of them with a cricket bat, but I feel it can only truly be achieved with empathy, compassion, love, patience, and without judgement. Not easy, but not impossible.
I said the same thing. Maybe we just honour the 5000 year old spiritual and cultural practice and dont play further into colonialism???
