I just can't believe I live in a world where I can access so much knowledge for free.
I know right
I can. This is giving numerous people a plattform to share their knowledge and stories.
The only issue is sifting through all the bs to get to the golden nuggets. This seems to be a real nugget.
I’m grateful for the talk and my phone, but for me it’s rather ”I can’t believe we live in a world where all knowledge, food and water isn’t free for everyone.” Everyone would win if this was the case, even a thousand years ago. I don’t know why it’s so damn difficult to understand for most people. Free education and knowledge means less idiots and stupidity. Free water and food means less criminality.
@Slender Not me. I spend my time on knowledge and on psychedelic drugs. I don’t think I learned so much from this conversation but it was interesting and well made, I’m now a subscriber.
Yanis I agree. Accessing knowledge was my passion before the birth of the internet. My 71 year old body is seriously disabled, but with this iPhone I can enjoy life even when bedridden. Google Earth lets me "travel" everywhere! Flower radio lets me listen to what youth and others are listening to all over the world. Finally, I can read comments like yours that make me smile and feel connected in a special way. Thank you for posting your reply!
I'm so sad that none of my friends are interested in talking about these kinds of topics. I don't know if it's just me, but does anyone else feel alone in this whole betterment process? I know I'm on the right path, but it just gets kind of lonely when nobody in your circle are interested in these kinds of things.
Been feeling this g
Word I feel you on that but bro but I truly believe as long as you continue to be yourself, similar souls will naturally align in your circle in random periods of your life. Just don’t look for them, same thing applies to relationships.
@@Dedication_VE I'd love to get a discord server going or just a chat where likeminded people can share this type of stuff with each other. That would be so cool. A collective of people sharing their techniques for growth/their work/content they find.

Psilocybin saved my life. I was addicted to heroin for 15 years and after Psilocybin treatment I will be 3 years clean in September. I have zero cravings. This is something that truly needs to be more broadly used in addiction treatment.
The Trips I've been having have really helped me a lot,I finally feel in control of my emotions and my future and things that used to be mundane to me now seem incredible and full of nuance on top of that I'm way less driven by my ego and I have alot more empathy as well
@Micheal Harris Does dr.sporess ship?
Shrooms was the best trip I had. It was an amazing experience.
Tripping is not really bad but find a good mycologist Who will teach you the right things you need to know
Dr.spores is the best, he's been my supplier for anything psychedelics.
When nobody else celebrates you, learn to celebrate yourself.
Most times it amazes me greatly how I moved from an average lifestyle to earning over $63k per month, Utter shock is the word. I have understood a lot in the past few years that there are lots of opportunities in the financial market. The only thing is to know where to invest.
@@izagdlife I keep wondering how people earn money in financial markets, i tried trading bitcoin on my own made a huge loss and now I'm scared of investing more.
@@BeverlyTalley That won't bother you if you trade with a professional like *Mr Gary Mason Brooks* my coach, you may have come across him on interviews relating to bitcoin and stocks. He trades, manage trading account and offer mentorship program for clients who wish to become professional investors.
@@izagdlife You allow people to trade for you? that's interesting, I would love to learn, hope it’s safe?
Wow I can't believe you guys are discussing about Gary Mason Brooks , I once met him at a conference in California 2019, just before the pandemic. I can testify that he’s very good in trading..Highly recommended.
I started watching this video five months ago, in five months I went from being a hopeless junkie, shoving needles in my arm daily, working at mcdonalds, stealing, lying anything for my drug. I moved across the country, packed what little possessions I had in my car and now im four months sober, have a girlfriend, and a job I'm happy with. I live in a beautiful house with some friends I made, I was homeless, went through rehab, sober houses. The concepts in these video have CHANGED MY LIFE. THANK YOU
Congrats man. That is HUGE
Congratulations!
Wooow this is so beautiful congratulations ❤️
👏👏👏
Wow! So inspiring..keep going.. more power to u!!!
I'm not sure how I got here, but I'm glad.

Albert Einstein said, "If you can't explain it simply enough, you haven't understood it well enough".Dr Andrew brings such simplicity to explaining the workings of the brain. It's actually a hacker's guide into our own brain. You are doing great service to humanity Dr Andrew.
That's a new one to me I have to remember that one. I've always thought if you can't teach it to someone else you don't understand it well enough and I wonder if that's for that idea I came from. Ian has arrived in Central Florida with some pretty impressive lightning (I love the light shows)

The part where he mentions that he wants to be adopted by a more functional family even at 45 yrs really hits home. Really delineates how no matter how old and independent you are, you still need love and support.

Andrew Huberman is a blessing to many. I achieved success with the easy steps below.
Many need to know this. A known podcast in the US taught me how the rich seek the ideas of FinanciaI ConsuItants to help earn success. That’s the secret the rich don’t teach you. I took this step and my finance breathes so good now 🤑
To achieve success, you need the help of a FinanciaI consuItant. I engage in a variety of lnvestments with the ideas of my consuItant and have acquired great returns so far. (the amount is confidential).
for further lnfo about my financiaI consuItant, you can look up her full name below

There’s no limit to what you can achieve in life (including success) if you put your mind to it.
Opportunity is a scarce commodity. I will partake in this. Luckily I stumble into this.
I remember walking with my dad one very cold night. I was about 9 years old and a very skinny girl. I was walking, doubled over shivering and in pain. My father held my hand and said “right, we’re going to step this out. He made me stand up straight, chest out and count while marching, 1,2,3,4 1,2,3,4 , 1,2,3,4. We did it until my body became warm. We faced the cold head on. Not only did he teach me how to fix this in future, but it taught me how to face all hardships and fear the same way. Stand straight, head up, chin out and step it out. Don’t cower to fear, look at it and walk towards it. Didn’t realise it until I was about 25 and has stayed with me ever since. I am now 65. 😃
Great to have a dad like yours. Congratz.
A woman at 65 can remember so detail events when she was 9. Respectful!
I just love how the brain is discussing itself
the organ that uses itself to understand itself
LMFAO
Girl….. wow

Gets funnier when you realize everything is the mind , there’s literally nothing else.

"Neuroplasticity is TRIGGERED by deep focus, but neuroplasticity OCCURS during deep rest and sleep". This is the most incredibly valuable information.

Thank you
Bless you
I'm 16 years old and aspire to go into neurobiology. Andrew Huberman is one of my inspirations
how's it going so far bro
good luck bro 🥰
My three biggest takeaways from this: 1. Any learning process or development starts with discomfort and confusion. You have to learn to embrace that learn to focus despite the discomfort and learn to enjoy the small wins along the way. 2. Feelings and thoughts follow action. Change your behaviour first and you'll change your thoughts and feelings. 3. Frustration and anger can make your brain "feel good". It's addictive. Don't let your brain go there. (I'd throw in self pity here as well, which is a big one for me.)
@yitzhak rafaeli shekkelsteinberg Thanks. :) I'm glad if they are useful for you. I like to make notes during listening.
I felt that he said anger and frustration give lots of dopamine, going into those states will help you focus more, did I get it wrong???
@yitzhak rafaeli shekkelsteinberg You can change your behavior & it will not change your thoughts & feelings. If that were true, all successful people would have high self-esteem! 95% don't.
I was scanning the comments to see if I should watch it, did I miss something?
#2 is just wrong. In what context can thoughts follow behavior? You can't ACT without having a thought first...it's impossible. Which makes #1 sound good...but again, it's quite impossible to behave in ANY way without first having a thought.
Suppose you become rich & famous/a billionaire by these methods. You will still have low self-esteem, because your thoughts haven't changed!!
Elon Musk can't stand to be alone, it's torture for him. Hollywood is full of unhappy rich & famous people with low self-esteem, because their thoughts didn't change.
I'm genuinely trying to understand.
much love♥️♥️🌎🌎
I'm
@@krishnac5774 I might have got it wrong. I agree about the dopamine part. He said that people with electrodes in their brains kept pushing the frustration and anger buttons instead of any other "positive" buttons. I'll listen again. :) Thanks for the notice.
"Recognize agitation, stress and confusion as an entry point to where you want to go." TOTAL GAME CHANGER!!!!!
Unfortunately I dont get it...
Explain that a bit more please
@@RontschDaPontsch Did you watch the whole thing?
That is my resistance in a nutshell. What a great way to frame it. Being aware of that alone is a good step in getting past the obstacle of getting started, slogging through the sewage, and pushing into focused work. Don't get stuck in thinking about it, don't try to understand my feelings about it, just push the fkn gate open, and get moving.
Just saw this yes!!!
13:22 hit me hard. I always felt that way as a kid. Always wanted to have a functioning family and it crushed me that I didn’t. Having friends with functioning lives was really difficult for me to see and compare myself to
Same ❤
Well...be that person to a kid or a group of kids? The joy and security you are giving may replace those crushing feelings you yearn for by knowing you prevented another kid from having to deal with it?
@@jdub7552 The blind leading the blind. What could go wrong?
The point is that this person needs help. If someone is struggling to afford food for them self, do you suggest they give away what little money they have to a different hungry person?
The best therapist I ever had said that we need to put our own oxygen masks on first. And it's what's best. There's a reason airlines tell us to put our mask on even before helping a child. We're of no use to anyone else if we don't take care of ourselves first.
@@zBorderPatrol @glo1991 I was a lifeguard..same message, if the person you are trying to save is going to drown you, you must get away. But I believe the take you have here is out of context. You are not talking about a drug addict who keeps doing drugs helping a kid not do drugs.
We are talking about an adult that has love to share and time to give...What could go wrong...lots of things, but even worse the kid he may mentor may experience the same dread as this person who posted. Its ok to not be perfect...it is the human condition..
Yeh. My sisters both turned this into a determination to raise Happy kids.
This video explains why I ran a marathon. Prior to this year, I was not a runner. I lost someone to suicide and was experiencing complicated grief. I had a thought to run a marathon so I signed up and found a 16 week training program. I used to hate running, but found training really therapeutic. I completed the marathon a couple of weeks ago and couldn't understand how I did it. Sounds like taking action (behaviour) plus early reward (noticing how good running felt) for the activity not the outcome, and the eye movement that happens with running helped me process my grief and run a marathon. So fascinating
This is absolutely inspiring... although I am sorry you had to go through such grief to get to that point. At least your pain didnt go in vein. You could've sat around crying emotionally eating or picking up a substance addiction, but you used running. That's amazing !! And life-saving advice to some of us 🩷
Addiction: a progressive narrowing of the things that bring you pleasure. Duuuuude.
Felt that too!
Addiction is when your love tries to kill you
Enlightening. Makes it easier to believe, and therefore take action, on broadening different ways of pleasure and intently practicing them in order to avoid that narrow road. You can't be addicted to something if you're not doing it much anymore. Somehow psychologically easier.

For those wondering, 48:25 is where Huberman makes that remarkable definition.
Who else became an instant fan of Dr. Andrew Huberman?
He is a handsome man lol
Me
It hits differently. It's simple, and practical. Occam's razor of neuroplasticity....no wonder!
Yep
HOTTIE
Having Huberman summarize everything we've learnt over time is such a blessing. It's like he's put together the thousands of pages of research into small and digestible dialogues. The importance of turning these types of subjects into layman conversations is unfathomably good for the world. Thank you for existing.
I could not stop myself saying "why have I not seen this podcast 2 years back". Definitely thought provoking and informative.
Why have I not seen this podcast 20 years back?
I am thinking the same thing. Only 1 year late from you.
I'm going to watch this every 3 months, for the rest of my life.
Until your nervous system pukes it out 😅
Try this with it:
Copy of my comment:
*Who's On 1st?*
*Thoughts or Behavior*
(There are opposite Points of View on this Q, and BOTH are Valid, but 1 is more Powerful):
1. Behavior: Motion gains Momentium.
The 5, 4, 3, 2, *"Up and headed to task."*
There's a value in "Once I'm in Motion, it generates the Energy necessary to get Focused and Stimulates Desire to "Get it Done" (it = the "To Do List")
However:
Lets apply Quantum Physics Facts here, *All subjects that Manifest into 3D Reality 1st require Thought.* (This literally factors to "The Bang Came 2nd"! Ponder it, You'll get it.)*
Fact is we Have a Thought then Take Action. That s the Natural Flow of our "doing".
Thought is a subject that deserves far more attention, then apply the "Lab and Chemistry" and then You have. *"The Perfect Model Plan",* nothing can supersede the Divine Design of our Universe. It is Absolute and so few things are in our Reality World.
*"Our greatest Power as Individuals and as a Collective is Our Thoughts."*
One must come up here to Comprehend this Fact. But, before I continue, let me make this Clear, and I mean write it 50 Times if Necessary, it is absolutely our Power =
What others Think, even if its about us, *is None of Our Business!"* When we concern ourselves with another Thoughts we place both feet in Quicksand, because, we are "Giving them our Thoughts, is allowing them to choose 'what they are' and 'how they are going to Feel', and that places us at another's Mercy, gives them complete control of us, and is how we get Manipulated and Emotionally Abused. Particularly if that Individual is a "Narcissist Personality Disorder/NPD", and there are 1 in 30 that are disgnosable under the "NPD/Cluster-B" Umbrella.
Do not give your Power away, not to another person, family member, friend, Boss, Partner, or "Mainstream News Media, aka Fox News".
Now,
(Thoughts + Feelings + Focus) + Knowing Believing
X (Conscious Application of Thoughts + Higher Mind) = Mastering the "Universal Law of Attraction/LOA" (this is Science/Quantum Physics and Absolute Fact, not Philosophy nor New Age Doctrine, although it serves both well).
*"If you want to understand the Universe, think in terms of:*
*Energy -> Vibrattion -> Frequency"*
- Nicola Tesla
E = Thoughts, Feelings
V = Focus
F = Knowing-Believing and having Balanced Self-Love, Knowing we are Worthy of our Desires.
We gain strength in this like any other subject, "Practice-Practice-Practice"
It begins with Coonscious Thoughts. Moving from Ego-Mind and Subconscious, the reacting to area and where Fears, Prejudices, Judging of Self and Others, Insecurity, Thinking Ya Can't, Preoccupied with What Others Think over your own Head\Thoughts/Power, ... and generally all learned ideas that are not fact/accurate, the Negative Swamp.
Time to Mature and gain in Wisdom, Time to establish "Your Value, Style, Character, and Your Cool Adult You".
See yourself as what you desire to be and what You Respect, *and Everyone else will see you exactly like that!*
Then you have no need to be sorry bout what they think.
Begin with Post it Notes everywhere reminding self "Get My Conscious On"
No Playing in Social Media Negative Pools, "allow them to Swamp if they want,, Your headed for the Beach in Monte Carlo!"
Catch yourself when triggered to React, STOP and Apply Conscious Thought, then Respond, but often Best Response is None at All.
Now you're on your way, if You want your Harmony and Successes, then You will Maintain this exercise until it becomes a Habit.
Know that Thoughts Create 100K X More than any Action, and Most Beneficial Actions come after Thoughts that are Confident, Happy, Having Fun, LOL, and all Positive energy Feelings...
Apply the Mind/Actions as described AFTER YOU GET YOUR THOUGHTS IN POSITIVE FREQUENCY MOTION, and You Will Manifest Your Dreams.
Always hold Appreciation for the many blessings and positive receiving you experience.
When you Pray/Asking for Something, do so as if already received, *the Universe is MATCHING YOUR THOUGHT ENERGIES.*
Any Questions, ask or Buy my Traing Book, not yet written - (Just Planning it now), but you have 90% of the info here, FREE. And my Best Thoughts for You/Mastered in the LOA and Balanced in Harmony with Abundant "What-You-Want!"
It is that easy and that real.
▪Meditate
▪Have Quiet Time each day
▪Release Negative Thoughts/Energies/Fears
▪Ground
▪Get in your Passion Sandbox
▪Feel Happy
These are the remaing 10%, save 1 and most don't need that 1.
____________________________
*"Thought First, so your Head is Harmonized, Then Actions apply."*
But, You are free to do it backwards ....
I'm right though!
Give good Thoughts to others and the Collective, see us in a Harmony World and it will all be and comeback to you X 10.
😉😘
Get Happy!
@@bethbartlett5692 Now , i am gonaa read this everyday throughout my life
My life is so similar to this guy that it’s blowing my mind. Even down to the parental dynamics. I was a skateboarder who did poorly in high school but I actually got into drugs. Once I got clean, I focused my entire life on going back to school to get a degree in neuroscience. I graduated with honors but now can’t find a job in the field.
I’ve literally been sitting in my house on unemployment for weeks wallowing in self pity and playing video games all day. I’m only 24 minutes in, but this conversation is really inspiring me to continue progressing.
You should contact him. Just tell him your story. There are no coincidences. Good luck.
Don't give up on your dreams bro. Sometimes we have to work and do other things - make sacrifices, before being able to focus on what we truly want to grow in. Best wishes. Keep that dopamine system a bit free from those addictive behaviours, is a good step to become a bit more free to choose what you want. Mindfulness helps in taking a step back and stay interested in these activities which you think you like. Sometimes fulfilling our desires is more like a mental satisfactory process, while we don't necessarily feel better physically when we do these addictive things
Mr. Burns 805 , I will soon be 80,that's the best comment. You have a beautiful life ahead of you.. voice texting sucks, referring to my previous text to you.. enjoy your videos games. Patience will return a beautiful life ahead of you.
I think you should listen to this video often and apply something that is useful to you. Take ones small step, one simple action step that you were inspired to try while listening to Dr A speak his reality. What I do is ride my bike 60 minutes almost every day. Sometimes I ride 90 minutes and over the weekend I hit my highest ever 2 hours of riding. Another thing is, doesn’t it make sense that you are a little freaked out personally about your circumstances?? That energy is your big wave that you need to take for a ride with a goal or dream... that’s my take on it.
Keep at it buddy, it's hard to find positions in the field, don't despair, you will be able to put your degree to good use one day :)
Every time I have problem with my addiction I’ll come back to this video.
Andrew Huberman is an idol to me.
Never idol somebody. Idol means pedestalizing.
“Acceptance is the answer” was my favorite chapter in the Big Book of AA. I was not addicted to alcohol but reading that book changed my perspective on life and the things I could not successfully battle. Recovery is for everyone trying to overcome something they feel has been holding them back from the life they see for themselves.
I am 70 year old,has keen desire to learn. Mind body connection is my favorite subject. Also having dying desire to lose weight brought me to Andrews pod cast. I wake up at 3 am every single day and can’t go back to sleep, this is when I use to listen to chats and now I listen to podcasts .
Today listening to your story Andrew, all I can say is God bless you. I cried the whole time. And lots of my heartache relieved by listening to your remarkable story
Divorced after 30 years of marriage two grown up children. It took long time to get settled and finally living my life.
Gaining so much knowledge from all the great podcast. Wow.
Hats of to you Andrew. Wishing to have you over to my home one day.
Andrew has helped me with addiction; a gift to many
I know that this video is 2 years old, but i want to sent my gratitude to put subtitles! I really appreciate it! Alot of podcast videos dont have subtitle, and sometimes i had a hard time catching some words that being said. Subtitles definitely helped, thank you so much!
As a 20 year-long neuroscience aficionado (and an MD), I don’t say the following lightly: This is the very best I’ve ever seen.
Damn. That's some high praise. 👌
I appreciate your comment because I don't have your expertise at all, so encourages me to share with anyone.
But you can’t spell officianado.
@@vonniebristow Delete this comment lmao, you have spelt the word wrong...
Well you have a long way to go
Some notes I made:
• Nervous System:
1.Sensation (reception)
2.Perception (spotlight)
3.Emotions
4.Thoughts
5.Behaviour
Change happens backwards.
• Impatience - when internal metronome doesn't match with the external metronome.
• Neuroplasticity - the ability of brain to adapt. Triggered by focus, happens during deep sleep.
• Buffer your quitting instinct. Do that by having internal pushers of dopamine. Self rewards.
• Slog through the discomfort.
• To calm yourself down - physiological size, ie two simultaneous inhales and one exhale.
• Focal vision - more focus, perception of the passing of time speeds up. Panoramic vision - vice versa.
• Deliberate Decompression - Use panoramic visions between focal vision breaks, will help focus better later.
• Lateral eye movement can help relieve stress.
• The key is regulating between the autonomic nervous system, better oscillation between modes is focus and relaxation.
Perfect
Thanks for this!
THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!!! I was in the bath thinking omg I HAVE to take notes on this
Concise !
Thank u for this ❤❤
Just wanna remind you guys that this content is FREE.
Keep going man. You don't need someone to understand what you're doing 😊
19:46
“ I used to set a timer and not allow myself to get out of the chair, I would experience extreme agitation but over time I could do long extensive work without any breaks (developing neuroplasticity).
*Recommendations:*
- Act even when stressed. Stress is a necessary gate to go through to achieve a focused, productive state.
- Create micro-goals on the fly and reward yourself mentally when they're achieved
- To increase adrenaline, use tummo breathing or take an ice bath
- To decrease adrenaline or rest, do two inhales followed by an exhale, look at the horizon, practice yoga nidra or hypnosis, take a walk, jog or go for a bike ride
- To reduce anxiety related to specific well-defined trauma, use EMDR
*Summary* (this summary is a draft. It is not very organized.
):
In order to learn or perform well we need to be alert -- stress isn't a bad thing! -- and focused. We also need a reward so we don't quit. Biochemically, norepinephrine is responsible for alertness, acetylcoline for focus and dopamine for reward. Norepinephrine leads to quitting at high levels. Dopamine down-regulates it.
It is internal, not external, rewards that propel us down long paths of success and high performance. That's because they can occur more consistently, which regulates levels of norepinephrine.
Sensation, perception, feeling, thought, behavior. Run that backwards! Start with behavior, that will change your thoughts, feelings and perception. Mood follows action.
Thoughts appear like pop-ups. You can't stop them from coming. You can introduce new thoughts, though.
If adrenaline too low, use tummo breathing or ice bath to amp it up. If adrenaline too high, use physiological sigh: two inhales followed by one exhale. Some people try to use the vagus nerve as a connection between the mind and the body, but it's very slow. Vagus nerve calming is what you experience when you eat a carb-rich meal or when you've had a long day and you put your feet up to relax. It takes minutes to hours to kick in.
Mental focus follows visual focus. Focused vision turns on the norepinephrine circuit, while panoramic vision turns it off. In order to rest a little bit, look at the horizon.
Yoga nidra.
Hypnosis creates a state of deep relaxation and focus at the same time, allowing for changes in the brain that change the behavior to something more desirable.

Awesome excerpts! Thank you so much.
Thank you for the summarize of this long video
Thank you
I am 42, drank 8 tall cans of 6% beer a day for 12 straight years. discovered Huberman this summer. down to 4-5 light beers (4%), exercise(spin cycle eyes closed) and use my sauna...hopefully I am at 2-3 soon and then quit and become normal...I also know about the GABA, that helped the change
Hope you’re sober now
His backstory is so relatable.
runaway from home, nerdy, squatting, finding comradery amongst skate culture, and even so much on personal perspectives and experiences from that time in our lives.
It just took me a a bit longer to come to a similar level of self realization, last december was my 2014 event, accomplished more the last week than that I did in over 10 years.
I had gotten stagnated in that luminal timelessness described later on in the video for far too long,
1:16:30 2 types of breath exercises
1:25:00 time perception
1:35:00 movement therapy
Ya this is what I needed
Thanks!
“Place yourself in discomfort to move you into action.”
This is life changing!
Good one
from personal experience i know this takes courage, and the ability to sit in your anxieties and fears without mentally going through fight/flight/fawn/freeze reaction and sabotaging yourself.
@@toscatattertail9813 oh man this ^ it’s so hard but so necessary
@@toscatattertail9813 ...from my own personal experiences as well, I agree w everything you’ve just said.
I didn't think I could have any more respect for Huberman, I was wrong. What an incredibly strong human being. Truly inspirational.
Glad to hear more about your upbringing Dr Huberman.
I had similar struggles / motivations.
I get similar reaction, having been in and out of 'the system' my early life and now I am a successful engineer.
Selfish in the extreme as a youth, now I actively try to be selfless and helpful.
Attitude changes everything
I had absolutely no support when I grew up, no parents, in different homes. At 15teen, I ran away, I educated myself, read a lot, and still do, anything from three books a month. Meet stupid men, hope for a family but they all just took advantage of me, I worked supported them. In the end, I decided I will go alone and I am very happy, qualified as an accountant as I was too old to study anything else. The point if I was given an opportunity I think I am very intelligent, would have studied Neurology, I love any topic about the Brain. Thanks for this amazing PODcast.
Thanks for telling your story, may God bless your future!
I went back to school at 57 and graduated at 61 as an Engl as a 2nd language teacher. It's never too late hon. As you going at it alone. All the best.
I've always been the person who puts off tasks because they don't "feel like it." I'd heard the advice before that "you're never gonna feel like it" and "motivation comes from action." But it never really clicked until I listened to this podcast. Now, when I see a task that needs doing, I don't give myself the space to whine about it in my head. I get up and fold my laundry right away, then give myself an internal pat on the back. "Nice. Good job not letting that basket of clean laundry wait. Look at your closet! It's so neat now."
It feels a bit like I'm parenting my inner sulky teenager, but it's working for me.
Lol that’s an awesome way of putting it, “parenting my inner sulky teenager.” I’m gonna use that!
I need this too... this on top off a lot of other daily struggles I am dealing with..
Exactly, in fact if I'm having an especially hard time, I'll often just start with a few 'tiny pieces' such as 'I'm going to stand up and walk over to that laundry' and then 'now I'm going to pull one item out of the pile and fold it' etc. Before I know it, the task is done.
Bro.... Wanted to give u a hug and pat on the back reading this
We grew up in the soviet union and many of these sayings were part of the cultural lexicon especially anything to do with productivity as it was part of the whole international proletariat message. I always heard my parents tell me stuff like motivation comes from action, there is another one that always said that stick out to me, it's that the best form of rest is switching your type of work
Best Andrew Huberman interview is this one with Rich Roll - love how sharp, intelligent Rich is when he asks questions and does it in a this very calm demeanor. Good listener too🙏
Ive been sober from heroin and xanax for over a year and I attribute so much of it to this video. I grew up a lot like Dr Huberman, parents were struggling/absent and I was raised by the skateboarding community, went from literally on the presidents honor role to not going to school in 7th grade and dropped out in 9th. The similarities grabbed my attention and then the information started flowing and I started applying the concepts I was learning, I've had to pause and re-listen to this video over and over, so much information and truly life changing. Thank you both but Dr Huberman, I wish I could shake that mans hand and thank him, I hope he understands the impact this video has.
I’m sure he does understand. He’s that kind of guy
I really appreciated that the commentator could sit quietly and let the speaker share his research and results. I gained so much. I tried to listen to other y tube interview of speaker but had to stop because the speaker was interrupted so often. Thank you 🙏.
Ditto!
Correct
No shit...so glad u mentioned this...i can barely sit through podcasts or interviews where the host is constantly cutting them off..derailing the subject of which the guest is speaking..an i swear to the gods..they do it every time the guest is at a critical point in his or hers subject matter..so they forget an usually do not go back to finishing the train of thought. I find it so fucking rude an inconsiderate that i quit watching. So this was an absolute joy..i really enjoyed this
Actively listening is a very rare skill these days, sadly. This was fascinating and inspiring.
For him to say he had to learn to speak properly and think properly is unbelievable to me. His concise and clear speech is what draws me to him.
This is amazing! I had came to the conclusion that school just wasn’t for me because of procrastination, studying, etc. but my mind just was not ready to break out of the box or genuinely learn… when in fact, I love learning and I even love writing to an extent!
What a beautiful realization to make and embrace. Wish you luck on your journey of self love and discovery
this is exactly what i was thinking, i love learning i just don’t know how to focus.
@@felixz4168 lß
Same for me.🥹
A fascinating life story! I think the whole world needs to hear this. And teachers especially. One right mentor can change the world. One irresponsible parent can cause detrimental effects on the life of a child.
My dad passed away when I was a baby and I missed him all my life. But I can't fathom the pain of an abandoned child, whose parent just walks away. My heart goes out to them.

I'm responding to your comment Jamila. If you do not know the work of Dr. Shefali Tsbary I recommend you see her book! We are multi-dimensional beings. Respectfully, Cynthea. ps. I'm sure your life story has value too.
My super dumbed down takeaways-
1. Focus on the task at hand with a sense of urgency when you're trying to learn something new.
2. Get proper and regular sleep.
Sleep is for people who have done extreme physical activity. I used to go without it without much issues till day 5 which I for me produces delerium but at the same time it offers a very hyper focused type of energy on core functions. The humans are being reprogrammed while sleeping; period. It's probably got to do with why most world leaders/those at the top of the pyramid are hyper intelligent (compared to others) an the one I seen discuss sleep said 3-4 hours for her (an none of them seem to be programmed to be hyper intelligent unless you point to knowing trump is orange or liberals are libtard so fast and completely is a sign they are excellent at learning) . Tho on the other side I've met a wasting DC hollywood star who merely worked for the top of the pyramid. When George soros or warren Buffet talk of taking naps I assume they don't sleep 8 hours at night.
I wouldn't call that dumbed down..i would call it highly sufficient at distilling complex subject matter for easy consumption...lol..ur actually really smart
@@heihat1224 i feel like thats what he meant by dumbed down..
Avoid addictions, the brain doesn't know what's best for us
It is truly rare when something this action-packed is also this science-based, and coming from an actual renowned scientist rather than from a hack. Incredible.
One of, if not the best video on TH-cam right now in terms of applicable knowledge that is critically needed at this time!!

There aren't many video doctors I return to; But I'm saving this one to remind myself to keep looking for him;Happy to hear the info regarding the "movements of the eyes' and "stress". I, myself am extremely sensitive to loud sounds, and bright lights; but If I move my eyes to focus on the music set on the stand in the corner in a dimly lit room, (a nightclub or a hotel lounge , for example?) I can still belt out a song with a strong voice; Can breath to my own drummer so to speak, too; I think this guy''s got an extremely great communicative nature and has the information and experience too; Good lookin' doesn't hurt either---But his delivery is really genuinely great. (Socrates said we are made up of mind emotions and body; to be complete-this guys' balanced all three aspects really well. He's inciting a new song in me btw.REALLY GOOD VIDEO PRESENTATION...Maybe he could give Trump a few pointers btw? (LyndaFayeSmusic@gmail.com}
Neuroscience should be part of school curriculum. Fascinating dive into the deep. More more more!!!
This comment should have more likes!
Absolutely, should be in schools!! If teachers would advocate for it like they do their unions, our children would be in a good place.
Most School teachers are too busy yelling at the students and losing the children’s respect... sadly they need to learn how to control their emotions first before teach this type of subject!
@@jdmosaics I couldn't agree More!!
agree
This year I have learned so much and one of the main ideas is that you should have that goal focused in your head solidly, as if you have already achieved it, and you won’t let anyone or anything get in the way!
Andrew is my Internet crush..awesome to hear his story today.
In a summary, beautifully articulated:
“As a society we are in extreme poverty of attention and focus. We are so anxious and depressed with the distraction of devices”
This kind of information should be watched much more than tv series
Agree!
This kind of information is highly prevalent in the anime series Naruto. They don't explain the science or the mechanisms behind these kind of behavioural changes. However, the self-rule philosophy of Might Guy and Rock Lee from that show is a perfect example of how basing your reward system around internal rewards and linking this to the duration-path-outcome process can help to develop a growth mindset. And that is my ninja way!
This kind of info should be *made* into a tv series.
I totally agree
I think we could use more of this in life
What an incredible person you are, Dr. Huberman to overcome the challenges at a young age. Hugs to you. Thank you RR for this interview with this great soul.
I’ve never ever had the slightest interest in ‘science’ as it goes completely over my head…. Until Dr.Huberman made it all sound so simple. Thanks a million sir 🙏
I love cleaning organizing and throwing away useless clutter, I love the feeling of having my space so organized, and I get little hits of reward everytime I am able to find something faster, BUT I really do not like to start cleaning, so I trick myself by sweeping a small spot, which always leads to the snowball effect.
I like that Patchwork Gardens!
Exactly what I struggle with!
It sounds like me....Sometimes I regret stuff I have thrown away...
Omg...i love that...i guess i do the same..i love my bathroom..its a little jungle of all my plants an grow lights..which my brain loves..so i always just tell myself ill just clean up my bathroom an that will active my cleaning bug..but..its not always successful..lol..i think I'll try ur little trick
I like to make cleaning fun in example do it with music & dance or reward myself for cleaning such as playing video games or watch a movie after I am done. You are much more motivated if you reward yourself
I have watched this 10s- maybe 100s of times, I share it every single week. I first watched it September 29th 2020. My life has drastically changed
I'm curious, could you share with us, how things have changed/ what your biggest takeaway was from this? Thanks so much! ❤️🤗
Bttgrappler. Same question as Emma 👆
So annoying when people don't reply to their posts
@@emmajean2386 yeah! Please share. How so?....Thanks.
Don't you have work?
I felt like I had a neurodenerative disease but am now improving every month. In college I started smoking a lot of weed and doing other drugs and enjoyed making myself manic as I felt like it ignited very heightened abilities. This led to a life post-college where I was pushing extremes and tolerating domestic violence because my partner was willing to live an alternative lifestyle with me. The violence became very frequent and I lost my mind somewhat from the stress of it, combined with heavy pot use. Once I was able to get away from my abuser, I felt brain damaged. I thought I had amnesia. I couldn't focus on reading anymore. I couldn't remember basic things like my phone number. I started to have constant debilitating audio hallucinations and feared I was doomed to permanent schizophrenia. But I basically did what Huberman did to turn things around for himself. I focused on work/ working out, eating very healthy and didn't go out. I did this out of fear and realizing failure was not an option. I did this while having horrifying symptoms of schizophrenia. Gradually I got better and now a few years later, I am amazed at how I can speed read every day. I read about 20 articles a day quickly and retain all of the information. I never watch TV because it's not intellectually stimulating enough. I am in better shape than most people my age and don't have a desire to drink or even waste time on social media.
...
For anyone that thinks they are doomed to suffer mental illness or feels damaged or sick, realize that not only can you heal your body and brain but can feel better and higher-functioning than you ever thought possible. Don't let others define you - even doctors will say schizophrenia is permanent and at best you can only manage the disease. This isn't true- do everything to help yourself heal and facilitate neuroplasticity by challenging your mind/ mind-body.
Thank you for sharing your story. I've been through something very similar, (made me feel a bit relieved that I'm not alone) I always thought that this mindset we shared was something normal, but never realized how bizarre it made me feel life.. until getting sober; and I know how horrifying it is to have lived through hell (panic attacks almost every second of the day). Bless your beautiful soul ! Hope everything is well
To anyone battling addiction, you can win this battle . You're not alone.
Diagnosed in 1987 with schizophrenia; immediately and for 35 years thereafter medicated with Depakote and Clozapine. Simply handed a prescription each visit. Never a reduction of meds or change in life patterns taught. I am so bright; the drugs reduced me to struggling with dusting a shelf; struggling with finding my car in the parking lot. I lost my life under those drugs. I lost my son; I lost what I could contribute to the world. 35 adult years is a lifetime. You guys are smart. So am I. ANYone out there hear me?
Man I could just listen to Dr. Huberman for hours on end, he's so knowledgeable and so fascinating! So much respect for his work, so incredibly relevant and needed!
You can see just how intelligent he his by his ability to dumb down such a complicated science. He makes it seem like anyone can become a neuroscientist!!
He knows his material

@@rethabilenxumalo9742 True. The entire discussion is fire.
Hello all, I recommend you all hear, and listen to this at least three times. And for those of us who are really interested, do this more. It's been said when reading a book that's valuable, read once through, then study, and third, make notes and write our thoughts on paper.
ABSOLUTELY! At least three times!
I ask for help!
@@worldevents9837 You don't need help, all the help is innate, inherent. You have a perfect brain, mental capacity to understand anything written in English. However you have to, it's a must use the Mariam Websters dictionary any moment while reading and get a good definition of { ANY WORD THAT SEEMS A LITTLE BIT CONFUSING, THIS IS A SIGNAL FROM YOUR CONSCIOUS MIND AS A QUESTION, AND THE ANSWER IS READILY AVAILABLE}. As well it's an exercise in discipline and each word you look up is a victory. And write these words down for further reviewing.
Lol I downloaded this.
I just recently discover Andrew Huberman and I love him!
His way of explaining is so precise and easy to understand! He is the only person I can listen for more than 2 hours and say at the end Damned "It's already the END?"
Dear creators.
I don't think I've ever been this grateful about a youtube video. I watched it bites. I'm left with a sense of a lot of different bits of information falling into place.
- Thank you both.
Much love and respect from Denmark.
My notes for the podcast (incomplete)
1. There are two main components in your control for when you want to change something in your life - focus and dopamine reward systems.
1.1. Dopamine centres are activated when you know you're on the right path and are progressing toward your goals.
1.2. Focus is developed through a sense of urgency and a sense of necessity
1.2.1. Urgency is developed when that internal metronome senses that your internal state is lacking with respect to the 'beat' of the external world. So the metronome is ramped it and now there is a tangible sense of urgency in your brain.
1.2.2. A sense of necessity is when your brain believes that either due to fear or desire it is essential to your evolutionary motives of survival and reproduction that you do something.
1.2.3. Something to be remembered also is that any activity that requires concentration comes through the release of norepinephrine(a form of adrenaline) that makes you feel a certain way - agitated, nervous, excited etc. depending on your perception of that sensation. Going through this gateway and treading on is essential to really accessing the dopamine centres which will further motivate you.
2. There is also a third component of behaviour change that is actually the second, coming in after activating concentration and before activation of dopamine systems. Since dopamine systems reward being on the right path and progressing on the right path, it's logical to actually have a path in the first place, which is the second component. The second component is the actual behaviour in question, and it in turn has 3 sub-components -
2.1 Duration of behaviour
2.2. Path of behaviour - meaning the actual thing that must be done
2.3. Outcome of behaviour - meaning the endgame of the behaviour.
Thank you for making great notes mate :)
Can you summarise more? Thank you for that
Nice one
Interesting
You're GREAT 😊
I have seen thumbnail of this episode but avoided it thinking that these days there are a lot of dudes claiming to be gurus, so I don't need another self absorbed guru to babble about how great his methods are. Alas, I couldn't be further from truth of the matter. This guy is the hardcore scientist, research professor of neuroscience, that all other "gurus" refer to him and research of people like him. He has a ton of insights in its accurate scientific form. Love that! Kudos to him for surviving the descent into chaos and overcoming it.
V !
Dr. Huberman is a sage in every sense, an archetype of wisdom and discipline
i remember 3 years ago i searched something like how to rewire the brain and this video popped out. seeing now Andrew can reach so many people and literally all of my friends follow him, its incredible. this interview changed my life.
Who else thought, "2 HRS ?!?"
...And then hung on every word.

I’ve been in love with Hubermqn Lab since day one but listening to his upbringing, I am even more. He truly has the power to make a difference in someone’s life.
Watched this more than two years ago and sucked down to the rabbit hole of HubermanLab podcasts! Looking back this is still a incredibly informative interview. Adding some notes I jot down
26:43 - The Human Brain: Internal State & External State
• Five components of the nervous system:
Sensation (non-negotiatable) , Perception (is negotiable), feelings, Thoughts (can be automatic or deliberate), Behaviour/actions
• The brain's single task is to take perceptions of the outside world with perception of our internal world, and to link it in a way to operate on our environment in an appropriate way
35:06 - Neural Plasticity - Steering the Nervous System
• Key thing to change brain as an adult is intense focus
• Neural plasticity happens during Sleep and NSDR, not right after your leaning activity
• Duration - Path - Outcome
42:25 - State of Flow - The Dopamine System
• Reward system is entirely internal
• Kids get dopamine working on problems they can't solve
• Daily rigor, tiny wins, trust the process
• Surpressing thoughts is futile, try introduce different thoughts
• Positive self talk is not the same as self reward
• Break down a long endeavor into smaller milestones
• People quit: because effort release adrenaline, and when it accumulates to certain level, we quit; dopamine counters
• The ability to push through pain points is something we can export to other aspects of life.
59:07 - Process of Internal Rewards
• Only self-reward is long lasting; dopamine linked to external rewards could be deflating
• Rewards are all internal
1:05:55 - Studying Fear, Courage, and Resilience
1:16:03 - How to Deal with Problems of Motivation and Focus
• 25 deep breaths can boost adrenaline, same as ice bath
• 2-inhale_1 exhale technique can boost
1:24:41 - Panoramic Vision vs Focal Vision
• Visual focus brings together mental focus
• Panoramic vision slows down sense of time
1:47:06 - A Bio-Marker for Addicts to Avoid Relapse
• AI might be able to set reminder when you need more sleep
• Our specie's next step in evolution: to control our autonomic nervous system
1:49:36 - Neuroscience Perspective on Political Polarization
• #1 brain area people want to stimulate: frustration and mild anger - directly related to dopamine
• Confirmation releases dopamine
• Key is to dialate one's cognition to control internal state
• Human don't have many mirror cells
• It's easier to stress people than to raise empathy
• Reduce the sense of urgency
1:59:15 - The Importance of Internal Control
2:04:57 - Is There Hope for Us?
• Most people are passive consumers
• Human is the only specie have neural plasticity throughout life
Thanks yaar it's really helpful 😊... first comment 🙂
First i was like: damn, two hours?! But now i'm like: GIVE ME ALL OF THIS DUDES' CONTENT!
That would be me, currently watching for the first time and planning to repeat it tomorrow
57:48 "How can I make sure that I continue to self-reward and have that drive and not rely on external rewards? - Give away all the external rewards" - That hits hard.
Huberman talks a lot about meditation and mindfulness, which I find really help me to combat times when my mind which wants me to do stupid things.
O
@@denise2169 - as we continue our work in mediation and mindfulness,... we find increased tendency to simply observe/notice our tendencies to want to do things that don’t service our higher selves. This increased ability to observe/notice in unattached fashion conserves our energies (& our nerves LOL) allowing for the increased focus he describes, among other benefits. I can always tell my ego is rearing it’s head when I’m resisting in some way (combating) “ what is “. Awareness/growth is increased by unattached (non-judgemental) observation.
“If they set a goal inside of their larger goal and self reward each one of those, they essentially have an infinite amount of energy to pursue those goal."
Thankyou Dr. Andrew

I've started watching podcasts from the past few months and I've watched great men like Kunal Shah, Naval Ravikant and Howard S Marks speak but this has to be one of the top podcasts, I felt this man knows me better than I know myself. Bring him again please, it's a pleasure hearing him.
Random 15 year old watching this, I stumbled upon it while searching for a fun podcast, one of the most fun things I have ever deep dived into. I want to learn this now in the future, I will update this comment if anything happens with it.
I came on to this discussion by accident and was about to switch it off, when something he said really interested me and that was me hooked to the end. Interesting talk about addiction. I have an addictive personality. Had a big drinking problem for years in my late 20's to mid 30's then bingeing into my 40s. I would have done anything given anything to stop, I did AA, prayed in a church etc. etc. finally what worked for me was I asked my daughter how she felt when I was deep into drinking, that was so painful for me to hear that it stopped my drinking. I'd been in rehab twice, had seizures etc. etc, nothing stopped me other than hearing the pain I'd caused someone I loved so much. Now without any effort consciously, I gave up smoking after a 50 yrs of smoking a pack a day and again, just unable to stop. I went into hospital for an operation, ended up getting pneumonia and collapsed lung so was in for a month, throughout that time I never once even thought about needing a cigarette right from the day of surgery. I was too sick to think of smoking, so I guess having a month of not thinking or needing cigarettes did the trick. I have since felt a strong urge on two occasions to buy a pack, I could feel the adrenaline kick in, I wanted to run as fast as possible, immediately to the shop, however I told myself, don't do that, you know if you do you won't stop, you may try to convince yourself you only want ONE, but there's no way you'll throw that pack away after one cigarette, by the time I'd finished that self talk I'd calmed down, didn't have the racing heart or sense of urgency any longer. It's different for everyone, who knows what motivates the next person to stop an addiction all I can say is, it's absolute hell to be an addict of any kind.

@- It's very good advice for those who utilize it and I've gotten messages from people thanking me over the past week for helping them move forward :) Nothing is perfect for every situation so thank you for the input. I have CPTSD so extreme agitation, etc. isn't really smart 100% of the time. Small steps are sometimes all you can do. We're already agitated and in pain, we don't need extreme amounts. People are comfortable being uncomfortable so we have to shake ourselves out of it, that's true. Change is uncomfortable and I had to go through a tough time changing my lazy, victim mentality like traits and how I was raised and abused daily for the first 23 years of my life to improve my life at 31. Today I'm hitting 100 days in a row of daily exercise, healthy eating, CPTSD workbooks and activity, mindfulness, meditation, etc. and keeping the weight off for the first time. Flashbacks are less, I don't binge anymore and it all started with 3 small steps. Keep up the work on your goals!
Thank you
That quote at the end was profound-
"I think it's clear that most people,
young or old are content to be passive consumers and spend out their dopamine doing essentially meaningless activities.
And consuming food and consuming air and light that is basically damaging to themselves and I don't think they care.
I think our species, let's be fair, is probably divided into those that are really going to try and maximize on this gift of neuroplasticity.
We're the only species that has neuroplasticity throughout their lifespan. And that neuroplasticity and childhood last as long as it does as a function of our total lifespan, that's incredible. So we were gifted this and I think some people leverage it and take advantage of it and other people don't."
-Neuroscientist Dr. Andrew Huberman
Hurts to read this, when you can see yourself in the quote. Fear of losing is also a big part.
Thank you

Eloi?
It is possible to use it with good intent and not to so called leverage or take advantge. See that's the issue. Just because you are able to continue to raise your intelligence and understanding doesn't mean you have to use it selfishly. You can better yourself and others around.
This video is a gift of knowledge to humanity like no other . The world owes both these men , particularly Dr Hubberman, at the very least a word of gratitude . That being said . Thank you both from the bottom of my heart .
Dr Huberman
Bro I love that you skateboarded I did too man here in Atlanta Georgia in the late 80s and 90s miss those days. And glory be to God for all your scientific discoveries.
I am ashamed to say I hadn’t heard of you till last night, nor your guest! But after listening to this episode (going on my third time now), along with checking out other interviews with Dr. Huberman... I have made some big steps into taking back some control in my life - even typing this is a huge milestone for me.
Something very important happened in my mind when I first watched this and though I still woke up late, I’ve made big steps in today. I also want to say, this specific interview with Dr. Huberman is easily my favourite, despite other popular podcasting channels I watch.
Your approach in this discussion really let the brilliance of Dr. Huberman shine. The beginning segment where he gets to discuss his upbringing I think was an extremely important part of this talk for me in what was to come. Very important discussion and a new fan to both sides!
Outstanding! Thank you!!
This comment makes me smile.
@@angeleyes5362 Aww well that's wonderful! Make a random human smile, check!
@Ben Smith Diddo! My exact sentiments 💯
@@therealnucleus274 a very wise and important reply! Indeed, I can agree with all of this from personal experience.
This is why one can feel eternally “stuck” . Because they haven’t yet come to the practice and implementation of these behaviours/habits. Continuous searching for information with no moment to slow down and implement the information, just conditions us and we can inadvertently “learn helplessness”.
Thanks for the reply and words!
Kinda wish we could DO MORE than just subscribe to his videos -He could be so beneficial to advising our society ,especially during the stressful times we're all going through right now, too! EXCELLANT VIDEO-sort of wish he didn't have to stop speaking to allow for the Interviewer/host ?
This guy has all the elements of being a caring father an informed teacher, and allot of other attribute's;=Almost calming to listen to also ?
There aren't many video doctors I return to; But I'm saving this one to remind myself to keep looking for him;Happy to hear the info regarding the "movements of the eyes' and "stress". I, myself am extremely sensitive to loud sounds, and bright lights; but If I move my eyes to focus on the music set on the stand in the corner in a dimly lit room, (a nightclub or a hotel lounge , for example?) I can still belt out a song with a strong voice; Can breath to my own drummer so to speak, too; I think this guy''s got an extremely great communicative nature and has the information and experience too; Good lookin' doesn't hurt either---But his delivery is really genuinely great. (Socrates said we are made up of mind emotions and body; to be complete-this guys' balanced all three aspects really well. He's inciting a new song in me btw.REALLY GOOD VIDEO PRESENTATION...Maybe he could give Trump a few pointers btw? (LyndaFayeSmusic@gmail.com} I'd like to know how to contribute $$$ to his "cause" here, but Pateron and PayPal wont' give me credit, because I refuse to connect my credit card to a BANK. Anyone ?
This doctor has such kind and enlightened eyes. I don't know why but his life force is so attractive
I got that too.
You’re in love
Wrong sex.
I thought the same thing and within the first minute, I think its "passion" I recognized through his eyes that just drew me in to listen to this and kept my attention.
Serj Tankin has the same. lol
Huberman equipped me with the necessary knowledge to understad more in depth people like peter attia and paul conti.
This Is The First Exposure To Huberman & THANK GOD!!
Hi
This is, without a doubt, the very best interview/video/YT I’ve ever seen. As a stroke survivor (out of the blue at 40, I’m recovered and 44 now), this is beyond fascinating, encouraging, and so on. I literally took notes throughout and this is sending me on such a new path of exploration and study. Clearly the brain is of utmost curiosity to me now (now that I have a “new” brain to work with). Best, best interview. So grateful for Dr Huberman’s work and words. Thank you for bringing this to the public- wonderful service.
If not discovered yet, you may find interesting Dr Esselstyn advocating strongly for a Whole Food Plant Based diet as this can revert heart disease. Heart disease and strokes go together in populations and both are arterial diseases. th-cam.com/video/ZC3wRx4vV7g/w-d-xo.html
Peter Strous Thank you so very much for your reply! Yes, I’m a huge fan of Dr. Esselstyn (and McDougall and Greger and so on) and am WFPB. My stroke was due to 2 undiagnosed holes in an also undiagnosed atrial septal aneurysm. The holes were plugged and septum stabilized (a bit by default) with septal occluders. I’m so glad you commented and promoted Dr Esselstyn’s work. While I mentioned congenital issues I had, there’s potentially still the issue of a clot to begin with....
@@LoungeLady Glad you are on this track. Mankind could benefit so much from sharing the truth with each other rather than aiming at personal benefit at the cost of others. With the latter we all miss out in some important areas.
Hey man just want to know... Do u have family history for stroke? Or any lifestyle factor causing stroke?
@@peterstrous2092 I totally agree with you! Thank you for this comment!!!!
Lying on our backs as kids watching the trees sway or finding animals in the clouds was so calming after seriously strenuous exercise and play. Gave us the energy and strength to keep going. Running is when I naturally meditate cause my mind just turns off and that's when my best ideas came to me. I've just been through the shittiest 7 months. Couldn't sleep. Emotions all over the show. Feeling helpless and aggrieved then I just started walking. A few kms daily turned into 12kms daily. It was actually so good reacquainting myself with neighborhood. The local bays and bush walks. Most days I fnish up at our local little extinct volcano on my way home. Just standing on top of Ohinerau looking at our beautiful city of Tamaki makaurau helped change the way I felt. I realized how lucky I am and was then able to reset my mind about what was happening to me. Helped me figure out what was in my control. Helped me calm myself. At nearly 54yrs I'm resolute on making 2022 the year I put myself first. I've always put others first. I let my fitness go. I gave my time away. Now it's time for me to be in the best physical, mental and emotional shape cause my life is really just beginning.
Yes! Take care of yourself first then you spread that to your loved ones
That is beautiful. Thank you for sharing!
I can totally relate to what you said. Thanks for sharing. I am 53 and I am starting over. I have always put others first, I am a breast cancer survivor and I was given way too much Chemo 7 years ago and I had Chemo Brain, my brain is healing still but I was put on SSI......I am always struggling financially......my boyfriend passed away in December 2021......I have been so depressed, fatigued......I was put on antidepressants two months ago and I gained 10 pounds. I felt worse so I just went off them. I decided to focus on walking, I want to exercise and eat healthy, no sugar and no alcohol.....I need to build my confidence. Tired of feeling this way.
@@andreaanderson4846 keep fighting warrior
Yes!!! Congrats. Keep going.
Gentlemen apart from the absolutely wonderful way your services contribute to the world , its also a treat to watch and hear 2 intelligent, learned handsome, honest authentic purpose driven men . You spoil some of us ladies who have set high standards for the real world . Respect and ❤❤ to both of you - keep it coming . 🙌🏻
No matter what people see outside - they will never know the actual mental toughness it requires to be independently motivated to push through extreme private goals of extreme exercise. What happens in the brains register carries over into other areas of their life.
I love this......”The early stages of hard work and focus are going to feel like agitation, stress and confusion. We need to accept there is a period of agitation and stress before dropping into these higher concentrations of focus.”
I rather watch this then to watch a movie. I started taken notes. Its amazing on how much knowledge a human beings can have.
