- Опубликовано: 16 май 2024
- In this episode, my guest is Dr. Matt Walker, Professor of Neuroscience and Psychology and the Founder & Director of the Center for Human Sleep Science at the University of California, Berkeley. He is also the author of the international best-selling book Why We Sleep and the host of "The Matt Walker Podcast." We discuss the biology of sleep, including its various stages and what specifically happens to those stages when we don't get enough sleep. We also discuss the effects of sunlight, caffeine, alcohol, naps, hormones, exercise, marijuana, sexual activity, and various supplements on sleep. The episode consists of both basic science information and many science-supported actionable tools.

As someone who did not go to college and has been working since the age of 17, Its unbelievable that I can educate myself through some of the best professors in the world, Thank you for this podcast !
You should look into Andrews backstory he was living in Empty houses didn’t know what to do with his life look at him now
@@markreilly5122 I wonder where we find his back story?
@@kathyowen3847 Dr Huberman shared his origin story during his interview on the Rich Roll Podcast Episode 533. Fascinating backstory and another incredibly informative one. I hope that helps! :-)
yes, it's very much possible to learn things through presentations and other media without going to college. it's not like actually attending a college course, of course, but that's probably a good thing.
college education wont guarantee you this education. Only your own interest does
These two guys are trying to break the world record for maximizing the intelligence-humility curve. Great episode, as usual.
Love it! Intelligence-humility curve! 😀👍🏽
Seriously, one of my favorite things about Andrew Huberman and his guests!
Absolutely agree. And that was a well articulated comment..
@James xxx can you think for yourself? Provide at least 1 reason from this video on something he said specifically.
Ha, ha, ha! Love it!
Please let Prof Walker talk about his ideas rather than interrupting continuously.
Hugely educational
42:22 “When you fight biology…you normally LOSE…the way you have known you have LOST …is DISEASE, SICKNESS, and IMPAIRMENT” Sir Mathew Walker you are BRILLIANT! thank you Sir HUBERMAN for taking brilliance to just an incredible LEVEL ! You are cherished 😻

What a beautiful time we live in. The age of accessable information. Being able open RUclips and passively learn from experts of any given field such as these two here. Man...what a time to be alive.
It’s truly miraculous.
💯
Golden Age within a Draconian backdrop.

I hope Matthew Walker doesn't actually think he's boring to listen to. Out of all of the scientific speakers I've heard, he's probably one of the best at varying his tone and pace of speaking while enunciating clearly. As a student researcher myself, I get an additional gift from these podcasts: I get to see masters of scientific communication keep an audience enthralled with their communication skills -- I hope to model these skills in my own scientific communication.
He's a great PR guy for the sleep industry. That's about it.
I think Matthew Walker is great. His research, book, speaking, etc. undoubtedly helps millions of people.
@Lou DaRe p
❤love listening to Dr Mathew Walker…. I never knew sleep was sooooo important until I listened to everything he has to say….love the way he pronounces his words…his vocabulary is like music to my ears….❤
I love listening his voice when explaining about sleep science. Calm and soothing 😅 make my cortisol going down 😂
This guest is great at recalling, and gently bringing the host back to topic while addressing his question at the same time. Pretty impressive.
I noticed this as well!
Good sleep does that to you! Lol
I wish he'd just let Dr. Matt talk..... geez shut up for a second 😅
@anynamez7048 haha, that's what I wanted to comment, but you beat me to it.
Thank you Dr. Huberman and Dr. Walker, my sleep has dramatically changed since watching this. I used to not be able to fall asleep at night, have horrible anxiety before going to bed, wake up during the night, and never feel rested or like I have processed anything from the previous day. Since implementing a wind down routine, largely stopping my alcohol consumption all together, and stop drinking coffee 10 hours prior to sleeping, I have not had a single anxious night. This was fantastic, thank you both so much for your work!
Thank you for sharing this..I have to cut down on my coffee..and have a consistent routine before going to bed.. Sleep is very important for our brain and general health..
This is happening to me right now. A lot of anxiety before going to bed, my heart beat is so intense I am unable to fall asleep even when I feel sleepy. Any tips for me? I cut caffeine a week ago, I dont drink alcohol, I regularly workout. Don't know what else to do. I use to take melatonin but I didn't work.
@@elireyesppc are you eating enough?
@@elireyesppc turn to God. Start praying. Pray until you fall asleep.
How long since cutting alcohol did it took to get a restful sleep. Last time I attempted solid cutoff it took me like 2 weeks dealing with alcohol withdrawal.
This is the episode I've been long hoping for. I'm so happy right now.
Me too!!!
Thank you for tuning in. I learned so much from Matt!
@@hubermanlab Hey will there ever be an episode on mental toughness?
I know what you mean. same here🤯🤯🤯
I recommend searching up "Matthew Walker Alexey Guzey".
For someone with chronic insomnia, this content is just priceless. I now know how important it is to get better sleep (I felt it before but good to know my forgetfulness and inability to function weren't just tiredness). I'm happy to report that my sleep is getting better. There are exceptions some nights but definitely making progress. 4 hours a night is a positive for me. Thank you.
2hrs.30 mins in...realised I'm not going to be with you guys for very long! 😱
I have chronic insomnia too, since the quarentine
Get 10 minutes of sun and break a sweat for 30 minutes a day if you don't my dudes
@@oliver8459 unless that 4 hours of sleep are deep sleep
@@oliver8459 I do sometimes wonder about the quality of my sleep and perhaps, over 14 years, my body has just become used to it. I do work full time, sometimes run, sometimes go to the gym, am a full time parent and run a voluntary group. The tiredness and forgetfulness are almost habitual but I also have periods of intense activity and focus. Maybe on those days, the sleep quality is better. I do wonder about the long term damage to my health but I do 20 to 30 minutes of Yoga Nidra every now and then, which really help me. I also have a variety of protocols that I implement depending on how bad my sleep has been.
matt is probably one of the best communicators i've seen, he is so attentive and speaks so well. The one problem is Huberman seem to keep cutting him off, I appreciate the back and forth but I really want to hear what Matt has to say, he is the guest after all
I agree, while I like Huberman and his show, he cuts Matt off way too much - really wanted to hear more from Matt. I suspect Andrew is just enthusiastic - but hope he takes this observation as a learning opportunity and not criticism
Oh come on , you are not being fair by no mean. This is an amazing and great great work
By q
It’s a conversation, not a monologue
I agree, he aggressively cut him off way too often
I was disturbed from interruptions by Dr. Huberman.
“One of the best ways to beat your competition in any endeavour is to outlive them”
Quotes like this make me wish Andrew would write a book already
He will and it will be phenomenal you just wait!
He did, "Why We Sleep" by Andrew Walker 👌
He will but we won't be around to read it. 😅
This is my life motto! Check out David Sinclair for more information too, it's super exciting
"Don't sleep like a baby, sleep like an adult"
It’s a beautiful thing that Matthew Walker is a sleep expert. I find him so soothing and relaxing to listen to.
Here are some deep quotes from this video that may resonate with you:
1. "Sleep is the Swiss army knife of health." - Dr. Matthew Walker
2. "When it comes to sleep, it’s not about doing less, it’s about doing more of the right things." - Dr. Matthew Walker
3. "The role of sleep is not to keep us just alive, but to keep us well." - Dr. Matthew Walker
4. "Sleep is an investment in the present, it’s not some silly thing that our grandparents used to do. It is a core component of life, and without it, you know, civilisation and society as we know it would not exist." - Dr. Matthew Walker
5. "Sleep is not optional, it’s inescapable, it’s a non-negotiable biological necessity." - Dr. Matthew Walker
6. "Sleep is the glue that consolidates and cements memory." - Dr. Matthew Walker
7. "There is no single aspect of talking about human health that is not significantly impacted by sleep." - Dr. Matthew Walker
8. "If you’re suffering from a lack of sleep, that suffering is not just in your head, it’s in your brain and in your body as well." - Dr. Matthew Walker
9. "Sleep is one of the most under-appreciated forms of performance enhancement available to us." - Dr. Matthew Walker
10. "The more that I study sleep, the more I become stunned by just the extraordinary depth, and the breadth, and the complexity of the relationship that we have with the state of unconsciousness." - Dr. Matthew Walker.
great list!
Thank you for this summary!
Thanks
Thank you
Thank you!
As someone who has had chronic insomnia for years, this is incredibly helpful! Thank you!
What worked aside for the basics of hygiene
What were the tips that helped you? I also read his books a few years ago...would be interesting to know what helped other people. thanks
@@Lektuerekurs yeah you wont get aby answers because nothing helped him
@@sorenjunkers3834 always the anime profile photos
I am a chronic insomniac. I enjoy running and even doing hiit training and working out at night because I I feel like I can get more focused without people distracting me or bothering me. I was even born at night. The problem is I don’t whine down to eat my first meal, which I do intermittent fasting until early morning when the sun starts coming up. And then I have to sleep during the day.
It is so hard to change this routine. There are a few times during the week where I have to be up during the day so I have to change this night owl schedule. I have attempted to do it a few times but I always revert back to that nighttime schedule. My doctor has prescribed me Lunesta I’m hesitant to take it because I don’t like anything that’s going to make me feel groggy. I already think I’m going to be groggy from weeks trying to push myself to be up when I’m normally sleeping.
THE HUBBERMAN PODCAST MAKES YOU SMARTER EVERY EPISODE 100% REAL TALK
Minute 120 man huberman just goes off the charts with interruptions! Just when the other guy was into being extremely interesting and helpful to the audience.
Huberman I love your podcast, it's quite insightful! Feedback: Let your guest talk and don't constantly interrupt them please!
Love how you emphasize on the difference between male and female bodies. That is a field in medicine that hardly is ever looked at and is so important. Considering you both are male and embrace the idea that we are not fully the same in biology is amazing! Thank you for that. Both of your mothers must have done an amazing job to grow you into men that truly respect women in that way.
Dr Huberman had a very destructive relationship with both parents. He did a fascinating interview on his entire life. He was a totally abandoned street punk skateboarder till his mid-20s!!
Dr. Walker sounds so humble ,and he has a soothing voice. Thank you for this interview, Dr.Huberman.
After watching Dr Walker on Joe Rogans podcast many years its literally changed my life. Fixing my sleep had an almost immediate effect on lifting my depression, increasing my physical health, and giving me the drive to start a new venture in life. If you read this Dr Walker I would like to say thankyou, and since ive first seen you I have watched every single podcast youve been on i can find as well as listened through your book multiple times, and would be very keen on a podcast should you start one.
Funny you should say that - Since Joe Rogan sold his show to spotify Andrew Huberman seems to have taken his spot and all for the better in many respects I should say. Still love Joe, but for totally different reasons obviously.
Some of Joe's earlier podcasts / guests changed my life. I decided to become a Dietitian due to his podcasts with Rhonda Patrick. Just finished my masters in Clinical Dietetics. Fascinate by Dr Walkers work for some time. Love his book.
This is a great refresher from Joe's podcasts years ago
@FRED you do know Walker was told by the W.H.O re he misrepresented some of his statements. And his university had to apologize
@@garysimone4977 which statements?
Dr. Walker is such a good communicator. Everything down to his cadence, word choice, and crafting of his sentences on the fly is amazing! Great video.
He is an artist of communication. Oozes empathy and knowledge with exceptional vocabulary weaving.
Huberman is such an academic he needs to read “The lost art of listening” it will upp his podcast game. Well done Dr. Walker in light endless interruptions.
Dr Walker is also an academic.
I've been interested in exactly all of this type of 'self-directable action' since I was a teenager but, having been searching for about 20 years now, this Podcast is by far the most useful, succinct and freely available I have ever come across. So easily digestable and actionable. Thanks for all the work you and your team have put into it.
@James xxx intresting thx. do you have a better source about sleep ?
You've been searching for people to tell you to do stuff?
Hahaha this is funny, what do you mean 20 years? What do you do for a living and what’s your success like? Because you can watch as many self growth RUclips videos or read as many books as you want. But you could be doing the exact same thing as a fast food worker, which there are plenty of that do this exact thing. Our mind is tricked into thinking we are doing something productive when we watch these videos, but we are not. So it is very easy to convince yourself that you are getting better every day by watching videos when you are quite literally getting worse because your losing time
@@Growext haahahahaa. Baka.
One thing I really appreciate about Dr. Walker is that he does a great job of circling back to the question that was asked of him. He provides a good bit of information and then ties it back to the question which can be hard to do when discussing super complicated topics. Great discussion!
Agree!
Great podcast, only feedback as a first time viewer is let your guests speak a little bit more than you and try to let them finish their points before cutting in. Cheers
Agreed.
Yes!
I agree with letting people finish their posts. But Huberman is not an uneducated podcaster. He is a professor in his own right and has his own episode on the topic of sleep from a perspective in his specialty. He can speak as much as he wants (with interrupting less). ☺️
Dr. Matt is keeping calm even after so many annoying interruptions
Interesting how Mathews take on caffeine has changed over time, his interviews and podcast are definitely getting better.
What was his previous stance on caffeine?
@@DannyJamesGuitar he used to be really against it
@@billycrunches8117 Got it, thanks.
@@eastongg9757 but some people could really use his previous advice. for me 1 cup of coffee disrupts sleep for several days.
I have seen Dr. Walker before, several times, but I think this was his best that I have seen! 😁👍🏽 Will definitely check out his podcast!!✌🏽
I am absolutely impressed with and wish my son to emulate Matthew Walker. The man is extremely articulate, controlled and eloquent. His thoughts just flows flawlessly and smoothly like water in a river. I wonder how he trained himself to think and articulate his thoughts like that. It's impressive to me because I have problems with words and struggles with my ability to communicate and this man is amazing.
Would love a podcast regarding help for those people who easily fall asleep but wake up at 3am and take a couple of hours to get back to sleep, feeling exhausted on waking.
Gobsmacked that someone who is not known for her great brain power can listen for hours to these podcasts. They are fascinating and would like to thank you for your generosity and skill in doing them. 🙏
Well, I was having this same experience and it turns out I have Sleep Apnea, although I never snored! Your brain is waking you up & keeping you awake to keep you alive. To fix this TODAY!, first try a good Snore Guard; found at drugstores or online. Which helps keep your airway open (push your lower jaw just slightly forward when molding the device.) Don't sleep on your back, which allows the airway to collapse. Raise your head and shoulders with 2 pillows or put the head of the bed on lifts. You should have no more trouble sleeping or going back to sleep!
If this does help, ask your doctor for a Sleep Study so insurance can cover a CPap machine for you. They may start you off with a noisy oxygen machine, put it in another room; until insurance approves the CPap machine.
It's very quiet and you'll be surprised how rejuvenated with Vitality and Energy you feel when you start getting Good Sleep again! 😴
It's amazingly wonderful! 👏
Sweet Dreams & Happy Life! 😊
Yes, please…! No issues falling asleep. But if something wakes me (happens often), I’m up for good. They sort of address it at 25:25. But generally, no one addresses this .
Dr Berg has a video explaining a spike in cortisol causing many people to wake up between 1am-3am.
Dr Berg video is called the Sleep and Cortisol Connection
@@Sometingwong420 thank you
This podcast is changing my life. Thank you Professor Andrew Huberman for your work and also thanks to Matt for his incredible work and knowledge.
😊😊
😊
😊
I am deeply amazed about the three hour content Huberman and Walker developed. I feel so grateful with you both. Awesome.
It feels like every episode tops the last one!! This will forever be my favorite podcast!
Two of the most inspirational, yet easy-to-understand scientists of our time. Love listening to both of these guys.
Matthew Walker is a precious scientist. Thank you for hosting him!
“Both exercise and daylight are wonderful cues for circadian rhythm alignment and circadian rhythm reset each day, facing east “
yes . quote of the podcast
That said, I don't think we need to be facing east because the light from the sun encompasses the whole globe.
@@RosyRosieRose east is best .
@@Q_QQ_Q aw, thanks for your comment. Awesome right..? I live in Byron, the most eastern part of Australia so yes the plants and animals like the morning sun. I find principles are helpful and protocols can get a bit dictatory. It's pretty natural to warm by the sun but...
@@RosyRosieRose tho sun/sunlight is everywhere eventually , its built in our system to be on certain cycle , circadian rhythm . so its not just seeing but sensing light is very very important in the morning . we been this for 100000s of years even before we were modern humans but our modern lifestyle is completely different style which causes many problems . thats why its important .
This is one of his best podcasts when it comes to having one on one interaction with the guest the connection and intellect is blowing off the charts here!
Dr. Walker thanks for all this information. As someone who has really struggled sleeping and is finally trying to prioritize it over other things, I’m very grateful for your information and gentle approach. Don’t put yourself down so much, your doing a wonderful job explaining things.
This was full of great information. Thank you both!
As others have said, the most compelling aspect of these two guys speaking is the intelligence, humility and the digestibility of the information provided. It's really easy to listen to such podcasts for hours and actually learn things. Well done.
Two of my favourite people discussing one of my favourite topics. It's a good day (and hopefully a good night later)! Thanks both, from UK!
Dr Walker is very nice to listen to. He explains everything very clearly while succeeding in keeping your attention the whole time.
Honestly this is one of the best interviews I've ever listened to. Good production. You can see that Andrew was very well prepared and he managed to hold continuous scheme through out the whole interview. He knows exactly when to speak and what to say which is unbelievable. There is also no better person to talk about sleep than Matthew. Thanks for this experience it was extremely informative just pleasure to listen to.
Professor Huberman, will we see a book authored by yourself in the somewhat near future? I think many of us would enjoy that!
Matt is such a freaking legend, there is not enough awareness on sleeping and it's more important then ever in this day and age
Search up "Matthew Walker Alexey Guzey". Cheers.
Well let me just say, this episode was fantastic. Could sit and listen to these two gentleman all day.
22 years old, type 1 diabetic, never had a good sleep schedule until the past few months. Listening to Matthew has helped me massively
Thanks for putting “years old” after your age, would’ve assumed you were fresh out the womb otherwise 😅
Wow!! I'm so excited to see these two giants talking!! This makes my heart feel warm and gives me such a hope towards humanity and its capacity to develop intelectually and morally!! Uhuuuu, their talk it's like music to my ears... thanks so much from Brazil!!
This is mind blowing. I could have listened to Matt & Andrew for many many more hours and ... lose sleep over it! ;) It's so interesting, so well documented, I will certainly use all these informations in my practice as a psychotherapist. Thank you so much for sharing.
Such important and mind-blowing information here not just for my life and my family but for my work in the elementary classroom too! Thank you 🌸
Thanks for this content. I'm a pilot at one of the major cargo companies in the US and often have to fly nights. Completely shifting sleep cycles is common for us and worrisome for most of us . Your content has improved my sleep and recovery from a week of flying immensely. Thank you.
Great episode! I can't believe that I listened to a podcast for three hours, but this one was so fascinating-- and with two such convivial speakers--that I watched all the way through. Andrew, I'm a 70-year old woman and wish you'd target an episode to my demographic. Was so interesting to hear that melatonin and magnesium may have different effects for us.
3:03:07
I see
I must say, I really like the format of your interviews - it makes me think of a fireside chat. I felt energized by the exchange of energy and passion for science that you both clearly share (and dry humour is always welcome!). I appreciate that you covered such a wide range of topics related to sleep and that all were addressed in a very scientific (of course), pragmatic and professional manner, as with all of your episodes. I also appreciate all of the time, energy and effort that goes into preparing for and producing each episode to bring this high-quality content to the public - for free!
Easily one of the most important videos a person could possibly watch.
Listened to the whole thing including repeating a few sections for clarity.
Thank you for making this.
Smiled multiple times in this podcast, extremely grateful to have the access of this information. Beyond grateful for you Doctors, Thank you for giving me the ability to learn from the both of you.
In my opinion, two of the most intelligent, interesting (and seemingly nicest) human beings enriching our lives with profound information.....many thanks to you both for this....amazing content !!!
Perfectly said.
Dr. Andrew Huberman thanks for sharing this informative podcast with us. It’s my favorite podcast so far. 👍🏼
1:12:00 As a teacher, I observed many children struggling, insecure, emotional and I always wondered if they were simply getting adequate sleep. A great gift parents can give their children is a pleasant sleep routine. It is low cost, enjoyable and hopefully habit-forming.
Listen to the children, don't shape them and try to boss them around. Let them do what they want.
You have been an amazing teacher of science, Dr. Huberman, I can not describe how grateful I am to have found you on this vast sea of podcasts on RUclips. Thank you to Dr. Walker for such a great session, and I am not just saying it for the sake of saying, I watched half of this episode, after which I couldn't complete it for a couple of days but during that time I consistently monitored my sleep, following all the things discussed up till the point I had watched which included getting light and caffeine intake and so on, and I have noticed a significant improve in my sleep. I have been struggling with sleep for over a year and now I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel, so grateful! Thank you (:
Thank you. Much appreciate your podcasts and efforts - The information density is second to none.
Fantastic interview! I so appreciate this information. Also appreciate the time stamps! It is so wonderful to have access to this level of expertise. Thank you so much, Dr. Huberman and Dr. Walker!
It's been 40 hours since I last slept, couldn't sleep last night and university schedule is 8:30 AM till 9:30PM. I really don't wish this kind of life on anyone, it's no way to live, and these conversations really help make a difference.
Lots of gratitude
Here I am listening to this podcast in the middle of the night instead of sleeping because this is just too interesting. Keep on the good work guys. Love it! :)
Dr. Matthew Walker you are a gift to humanity when it comes to bringing the awareness and importance of the sleep to millions and millions of people. Thank you so much.
Thank you for interviewing Matt! I so loved learning so much this Monday!
I’ve just discovered your channel lately and I’m hooked. I’m actually amazed of the amount of information and knowledge I get each time I listen to your podcast. Thanks Matthew for your profound knowledge on sleep and sharing it to us selflessly.

I enjoyed every minute of this episode as well as your marvelous sense of humor!
This is the only the 31st episode and it's incredible how well packed the knowledge is. It gets better and better! I can't wait for the future episodes. I want a Hubermanlab Certificate :D.
Dr Huberman. Thankyou so much for all your efforts on sleep. I’ve been trying to implement getting up early and viewing sunshine but something I discovered only very recently after 40 years is I have been mouth breathing when I sleep. I have started taping my mouth every night after trying it sporadically before. And I’m noticing a HUGE HUGE difference to my sleep. For the first time in years I am sleeping deeply and through the night. I also didn’t know that my tongue should actually be at the roof of my mouth. So I am now practicing that during the day. For anyone who’s tongue is not resting at the roof of their mouth please see all the videos about mewing. I wish everyone on this podcast happy happy peaceful sleep 😊
🤣It's the cats meow😉
Kinda amazing isn’t it, I learned both via the book Breathe! I have braces currently and actually love the night rubberband routine, it’s so much easier to keep my tongue up!! I never thought the idea of Not wearing rubberbands would make me almost reluctant to get to the end of them!!
The interview with Dr. Matthew Walker was comprehensive and in-depth. Thanks to Dr. Huberman who constantly brings to the public attention issues related to improving his health. Thanks
My two favorite scientists! Wow. I could listen to a whole series on this. Absolutely fascinating! Thank you.
Perfect timing to start a new week with amazing knowledge to improve our sleep! This will make the lifes of so many people much better, thank you so much for sharing
The chemistry between you two! These witty jokes. The KNOWLEDGE! My god, THIS IS SOCIAL MEDIA!!! Thank you Dr. Huberman. Holyshitballs 👍🏽👌🏽👍🏽👌🏽👍🏽
You can clearly see how passionate he is about his work and research. Great talk and eye-opening information.
I'm always every day amazed with the kind of information and topics Prof. Hubermann brings to the table. Amazing episode, great information. Thank you both
Two of the absolute GOATs in conversation here. Amazing stuff 👌
So you're telling me i just listened to two nerds talking about sleep for two hours?
Sign me up for more! Love you Andrew
The last 20 minutes are just gold.
I love how they throw a little compliment to each other here and there! So much respect between those 2
O wow, you actually got Walker on the podcast! this is going to be a banger!
Dear Gentlemen I will be 82 I n sept. I previously have difficulty
Sleeping I take ambien and was doing good but then went for a mammogram and had to have a lumpectomy due to prevent estrogen patch I was on a for years now I don’t use it and between hot flashes and toilet trips x4 I am not sleep bett ween flashes and trips to the B/r I usually fall asleep when the sun is coming up . And sleep from 6-4 thanks Dianne. I take 10 mg it does nothing
This is one of the episodes you listen to twice, great interview!
Two passionate and brilliant scientists. Great listen, thank you
“When we have those thoughts at night, it comes with a magnitude of rumination and catastrophisation, that is disproportionate to that which you would describe when you are awake”
That end quote by Matthew really resonated with me.
It was a brilliant episode. Thank you both. 🙏
Very much appreciate Walker's reflections on his communication style from when he first burst into the public sphere. I hold zero ill will but, after hearing him with Rogan, Attia, etc, there was a brief period of time where if I slipped on any consideration for optimal sleep I'd psych myself into thinking I've ruined myself for the following day. Thankfully was able to identify this was counterproductive rather quickly.
The fact he was able to perceive this shortcoming in his style and is publicly endeavoring to fix it gives him all the more credibility in my book.
2:15:51-> taking this in in small chunks. Thank you 🙏🏿
Dr Huberman, your enthusiasm is palpable and contagious and I love the way you guide the discussion and ask questions based on what you’ve discussed in previous podcasts.
I love Walker's voice. It would lull me to sleep in the very best of ways. He is interesting to listen to as well.
This was phenomenal. Thank you for this podcast! I'm in the process of improving the quality of my life and the information shared here has been invaluable!
Two great minds together, Thank you for such great content!!
Thank you to both of you, what a great episode. I don't have noticeable issues with my sleep (noticeable being a key word here) and this episode has convinced me to set a cut off time with my coffee/caffeine intake to mid day for at least a month and to re-evaluate how I feel :-)
Thanks for a really great and thorough presentation. And for not trying to cram it into a short time period for the people with minimal attention spans. I am glad there are still presentations like this.
Hearing Matt reflect on and change his beliefs and approach was really refreshing
Even if you see this podcast's duration of 3 hours a big amount of time for such thing like it happened in my case, at the end of it you have the strange opposite impression that the time was shorter. That's how captivating the information is. Thanks for sharing it with us.
I skipped this episode when it came out because of its duration. But today my sleep tracker said that my sleep quality was poor, because I only had 33 minutes of deep sleep in 8 hours, and indeed I feel tired. So I came here to figure out what I did wrong. And what a wonderful conversation I found here! Thank you very much for sharing the knowledge.
Let the man speak Mr Huberman.
Andrew, your podcast is really really USEFUL and inspiring. Thank you!
I am mesmerized by you both. You both look alert, fully engaged. May I suggest this type of discourse is what this country needs to celebrate intelligence! Thanks guys ❤
Unfortunately, most talking heads are not scientists and are not interested in discussion. They’re interested in non-fact based mind manipulation. Lots of folks are susceptible to such bs. Maybe this is not the kind of thing you meant, but it’s where my thought went.
@@kmichalene Exactly 🤗
It was noticeable that dr. Huberman occasionally, after asking a question , didn't allow dr. Walker to answer it and introduce the subject in his own way. Other than that- very informative.
I think its the excitment of the topic being about sleep....dr hubberman is greatly interested in sleep function... so i noticed that too
@@greentea6394 Good point. Though... you'd think that doctor in neurology could control his excitement in this circumstances. He he... I am just being a bit picky.
So Dr Huberman had difficulty containing his excitement in parts of this conversation ... just shows he’s human!🤷🏻♀️ ... his almost childlike enthusiasm for science & the topic is hugely endearing 🤗
I agree, I love Andrew and understand he has a lot of excitement and knowledge re the topics discussed but felt he cut Matt off a bit too often here
I also noticed this, kinda gives a weird vibe to the conversation haha.
Such a joy to listen to fellow scientists. Kudos to them to be able to communicate science to public!
Greetings from Wales. Thank you for making a big difference to my life ❤
