It also enables people to share information like this and be able to earn a living. Depending on the amount of subscribers youtube can be quite lucrative. So it enables someone like me who does not have very much money to be able to get information like this. Its sad that some people use it to just spread hate and misinformation.

      His online resources are an incredible tool. Highly beneficial for someone with a disorder snd thoughtful with so many additional resources. I took notes for a bit but found transcripts. I couldn't balance content for my viewers that serves them well and is paid for by ad companies he has to appease to keep it all free, and cross promote on podcasts too. Research? Teaching formal class? I'm learning to focus on two things and neither of them are brain science. There's a huge gulf between what he knows and what we learn here.

    I haven't used an alarm to wake up since 2015. I just watch my hydration really closely all through the day, and then simply drink the prescribed amount of water before bed. Using this method, I can land within 30 mins. of whatever time I wish to wake up. Liberating myself from the mechanical commands of an alarm clock has had a measurably positive effect on my quality of sleep and overall cognitive function. Total game changer.

    Hooked. Thank you so much for a great listen! Andrew Huberman is my inspiration these days. I enjoyed and appreciated your interview with him. I saw him in a bit of a different, more personal light (I suppose that what a good interviewer does). Topics of the interview were interesting and informative, funny and weird (in a good way); but that’s not what struck me most. It was the intimacy, the obvious extreme level of mutual respect, admiration and friendship that really set the tone. I’ve only just met you, Lex for the first time tonight - listening to your interview with Andrew- and I hope to hear much more from you in the future. I listen to Andrew’s podcast regularly and plan to add you to my “listen-list.” In closing, I don’t want to be too sentimental, but dang... y’all ended the interview on a real “Kumbaya” note. I could feel the love all the way down here, “Deep in the Heart of Texas”. Thank you!

      What is it about dreams that particularly catches you? After hearing Andrews thoughts I'm even more curious about the function and possible utility that could be gained through not just Lucid Dreaming but Dream Control directed by the Dreamer themselves during the dream.

    Very interesting when he discusses "why we quit" with reference to the experiment of the animal running when altering the visuals to make them think they are not getting anywhere... I notice this when I run, if I am doing loops on a track, it seems so much harder to keep going ever lap, yet when I'm on a beautiful trail and see my progress through the forest, running 5+ miles is a breeze. Fascinating.

    Adenosine accumulates in the brain while we are awake. The accumulation of adenosine causes drowsiness. Circadian rhythm is approximately 24 hours. Temperature is a key factor. The overlap of the systems is why we sleep.

    I am a comparative theologian and philosopher specializing in mystical spiritual experiences and altered states of consciousness. During NDEs, psychedelic trips, trances, deep meditation, religious ecstasy, and some dreams we tap into the 'cloud like' realm of universal consciousness. I study non-local consciousness, when we tap into telepathy, experience autoscopy and knowledge in other dimensions outside space/time. My dissertation looks at NDEs through a Vajrayana lens. I love your podcasts and all the conversations. I loved D. Hoffman's talk too. Fiona, (KCL, SOAS, Claremont)

I maintain the gains doing intermittent fasting. Feasting during a shortened window is no longer about counting calories, but about heeding the two hormones - one that signals hunger and one that signals satiation, so I eat to satiation, no more, no less.

    I enjoyed this conversation.
    I work at night.
    I trained myself with melatonin to sleep in the daytime, even with distractions.
    I feel great.
    I take a certain amount of melatonin in the day time, depending on what I have planned for the day before work.
    I go into a coma.
    And come out feeling great.
    I need at least 4 hours of sleep though, on tricky days.
    Otherwise I'm a walking drunk person.
    It's not very safe or very nice to see.
    My worst memory was being awake for 24 hours and running over like 20 cones, trying to avoid hitting an 18 wheeler not letting me pass on the highway.
    I went straight to work afterwards.
    Somehow I managed to keep myself awake and not falling off my chair.
    Lol.
    Not a nice memory.
    I try not to do that kind of stuff anymore.
    I also tried dried organic tart cherries for the melatonin effect.
    They work.
    But, it's kind of annoying trying to figure out how many cherries to take on certain days.
    It's more predictable with melatonin, when you already know the dosage and the effects it has, when you take more or less of it, at different times of day and whatever.
    Also, there's better quality of melatonin, I think.
    It took me awhile to find the better stuff.

    2:53:23 The humility aspect provided by psychedelics can be wonderfully encouraging to creatives or those seeking deeper layers of their creativity; it's like an elimination of social stigma bias, egoic self criticism, and playfulness inhibition. It can assist in getting back to the "art for art's sake" that we lose in the state of social consciousness that primarily rests surface level, materialistic, and ego driven.
    Therefore I believe this is why psychedelics are correlated to increases in creative energy. There's no self-obsessed narrative telling us we aren't good enough to try.

    55:30 This might be the main reason why we’re loosing testosterone. It’s because our behaviour and thought patterns is converting our cholesterol into cortisol instead of testosterone. We’re simply too stressed up. It makes sense because we’re not allowing ourselves to be fully immersed in our activities without being distracted. Think of how bad it actually feels when you’re being interrupted by either something else or a thought. That pain and stress is literally our brain telling us that something is wrong. The best help we can do to help our youth to increase their testosterone is simply reduce the external pressure, stress and distractions while they’re doing the work.

    Great interview. It is interesting that there is now a way to communicate science to an audience outside of the journal paywall. Without access to peer reviewed journals, it is difficult to know what direction current research is going. When NIH allowed access to their papers outside of the journal paywall, it opened up a great source of information. Hopefully forums like this can have a similar affect.
