Dr. Jack Feldman: Breathing for Mental & Physical Health & Performance
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 тра 2024
- This episode my guest is Dr. Jack Feldman, Distinguished Professor of Neurobiology at University of California, Los Angeles and a pioneering world expert in the science of respiration (breathing). We discuss how and why humans breathe the way we do, the function of the diaphragm and how it serves to increase oxygenation of the brain and body. We discuss how breathing influences mental state, fear, memory, reaction time, and more. And we discuss specific breathing protocols such as box-breathing, cyclic hyperventilation (similar to Wim Hof breathing), nasal versus mouth breathing, unilateral breathing, and how these each effect the brain and body. We discuss physiological sighs, peptides expressed by specific neurons controlling breathing, and magnesium compounds that can improve cognitive ability and how they work. This conversation serves as a sort of "Master Class" on the science of breathing and breathing related tools for health and performance.

When a scientist says "I'm not sure about that", or says, someone else "is the expert on that" they have more credibility. This guy knows enough to know what he doesn't know.
yeah instead of "I'm science", "you can't critize science" lol... hmmm...
Something clowns like Fauci never say.
Which breeds TRUST.
@@JesusChrist2000BC He has to make policy recommendations based on that science or what little science there is out there and as you know science evolves.
@@jammRJ Which he doesn't do. Thousands of studies prove him wrong.
Love how Professor Huberman strives for clarity and is measured in his speech. He is teaching us merely by talking how we should be mindful in communication.
This. I'd love to see some book recommendations or something written by Andrew regarding communication.
I bet he's matt from tinder.
Well said.
The added bonus- moments clarifying humous digs 💀 lol
Sad. The bar really is that low.
This podcast channel continues to exceed all expectations- thank you Dr. Huberman for the high quality of your solo presentations, as well as the quality of your guests, and your skills as a host.
Exactly! Something I really look forward to every Monday. Always informative and amazing!!
Pleasant interviewing, short connecting questions and active listening in perfection, eliciting all the knowledge from the interview partner.
I'm a 70 year old woman and I found the information very helpful and interesting. I want to increase my energy and keep learning about health. Thank you
This podcast has never made monday more exciting
same
It makes every day exciting practicing what he teaches!
Professor Feldman is awesome; I'm so glad you had him on. I was fortunate enough to have him on my thesis committee and he was a huge part of improving my scientific thinking and teaching skills.
Thanks, Dan. Hope all is well. Jack
The way prof. Huberman puts his questions in such polite and respectful manner is really something to look up for.
A conversation between two people - one of whom has the art of asking questions that elicit the foundations of a discipline, and of another who is an expert in the discipline, is a feast of the senses. Add to this a humility on both sides with a large pinch of mutual respect and you have an incredible experience. Thank you both for making this available for the rest of us.
Good morning everyone. 🌞
Good morning 🌞
The fact that all these podcast are free is just amazing.
I’m not a scientist or as knowledgeable as this wonderful man but 3months ago I purchased and read a book called Breathe and I now only breath through my nose, I tape my mouth every night, I also breathe much less... my health has improved unbelievably, no more blood pressure or cholesterol tablets, I lost weight and my energy is increasing continually , it’s absolutely amazing something so simple has such incredible effects... highly recommend it , I’m nearly 70 and feel better than I have in years
good for u i have been working and treating pts with mouth brrathing habits ineish u welll heres a simple trick to fotce u to stop mouth breathing ( no tape needed)..ouch lol just get some watet (only).and get a small to regular sip now jusy hold it in your mouth no down side u will contribute salive as the time goes by start slow dont stress or force when ir tapped swallow the water and keeo repeating monitor or log ur time progression 5 min 3o min alm that happens is ur body will not be able to use the otal pharanx if its full of water and u will be delicatly forced to use the nadal pharanx ( side note ; the reason for the notocable improvement js simple as u ventilate via the nasal pharanx ( only natural normal and effective way to interchange gas ) will provid the highest and most efficent gas interchange with max o2 absorbtion ( if all other variables are within normal ranges) when oral breathing is the default you are in effect living at altitude with much lower levels of 02 therfore gas interchange is less effecient even as much as 40% less thats like having a cell phone charger pluged in all night but its defective and only gets u 70% charge so u wake up tired( no 02 no recharge sleep is key amd breathing is never more crtical then at sleep ..so ur doin great loss the tape and use the water besides its an easy way to hydrate lol...take care im 70 as well been doin this work for 30 years ( 1 last suggestion fet ur ligual frenum checked if its too short get it clipped the lingual frenum is that ligamnet under the tongue..and its implicated in many comorbiditys blocked airway being one leading to sleep apnea etc keeo ur nasopharanx wide open and my last tx prptocol wpukd require u to see an ent for an ipper aorway exam no broken or dobiated septums allowed also no enlarged turbinates or other soft tissue masses got keeo the pipes cleared use em or loss em good luck

The universe has been telling me to master breathing for a while now. And since Doc Huberman released this, I think it's time.
Same.
U good?
It is a lost art 🤷♂️
By the way, can you guys share other masters of breathing that we can learn from? Other than this podcast, I'll be learning from Rickson Gracie and Wim Hof.
@@keenan3618 since when are westerners masters of breathing ? Maybe one day you will stop deluding yourself...,,🙄...look to the east 🤷♂️
Thanks to yourself, Jack and everyone involved in producing these as always !
I found this discussion fantastic-- richly academic, unscripted but guided, and very real. The banter is a bonus. Academic discourse rules! For those that want a 2 min sound bite don't watch, for the rest of you, enjoy! Thank you!
I’ve been meditating on and off for 40 years. I’ve read James Nestor’s book and still can’t get over the fact I sigh every 5 to 10 minutes. Amazing what I learn here!!
Andrew, I discovered your podcast in November last year and I cannot be happier that I did. You are addressing points and going in depth on topics I have only touched on the surface, but yet been very interested in. So far you have made the start of 2022 tremendous for me, thanks for your content and much love!
What a fabulous human being Jack Feldman is. Absolutely fascinating podcast. Thank you Andrew for making this available to us.
You're slowly putting the pieces together to create an all encompassing protocol for depression relief and I hope you or some of your colleagues are working on that. Breath work, meditation, psychedelic treatment, intention setting, nutrition, exercise. I'm seeing so many parallels in all these recent episodes. Keep up the good work sir!
As someone who, not very long ago, realized I'd hold my breath, (for short spurts, obviously LoL), quite often, I am very pleased with this particular podcast... Thank you❣️
As always, enjoyed this a lot. Please have Dr. Jack Feldman again soon. Been on a loop for this week. Thanks, Prof. Andrew & the Huberman Lab Team. Bless you all!
I'm SO glad that Lex pushed you to do this. Priceless information
This is the scientist who re-discovered the physiological sigh 👏.
The photo of Costello at the mic is pretty cool. ❤️
So inspiring. How wonderful to see a combination of brillance and humility that is evident in Dr. Feldman.
Just a quick message of appreciation for you Andrew ! Your podcasts have truly done wonders for me. The topics covered are diverse. I am a Software Engineer and Economics Double Major, but I have been always fascinated by Neuroscience. I learn a lot by your podcasts as they cover diverse topics while having the core concepts always showing and linking to the new ones. The problem with UA-cam is that their is so much people who present these information with good intent but are underqualified in doing so, so it really is wonderful to see you and such experts like Dr Jack come and present us with all this information for free. For that , I - and I shall assume many like me - am truly grateful.
Please do have him back. This man is a fountain of knowledge useful to all of us.
This podcast is pure gold as general and this segment with Dr. Feldman was long but I couldn’t stop listening.
Been doing my best to up my breathwork! Thanks Andrew for your continued efforts to make health and science understandable for the average human!
I'd like to request an episode on grief - how it affects the brain. Lot's around the world experiencing this right now - young adults - I lost my dad to Covid and he was age 54. Catching up on all of your episodes, day by day. Thanks for all you do...
Not only a great researcher, scientist and presenter, but as it turns out, a great interviewer as well. What a great man! Thank you for all the work you've done with this channel!
"Without a diaphragm, you're an amphibian." I am so quoting this in my breathing classes! Thank you for this incredibly educational interview. Huberman Lab Podcast is by far my favorite podcast. Side note-- love the mate gourds on the shelf. I have a bunch of painted ones I got in Buenos Aires on my shelf as well.
I watch all of your podcasts and you never fail to amaze or inspire but this podcast with Dr Jack has to be one of your best. The content and information was truly outstanding and the demeanour and candour with Dr Jack is so refreshing. Thank you and thank you Dr Jack. I really look forward to part two and, to your next podcast.
I’m SO excited that you are bringing this and other important topics to the mainstream. Thank you for your work.
You are a lighthouse in my Life
Garance from France
Thank you
Dr Huberman - all I can say is that I feel so blessed to have discovered your Podcast & to be living in a world where someone like you takes the time to share their knowledge & wisdom! You impact so many lives so positively. I am forever grateful!! 🙏🏽
Thank you also to Dr Feldman for his insights! Extraordinary podcast indeed!
I just finished this. My favorite one so far. Dr Jack Feldman is a wealth of knowledge and ….well, if I were in college, I would seek him out as a professor and mentor. He is one of a kind.
Thank you Dr. Jack Feldman for the time and education 🙏
Thank you for your podcasts and efforts. Society appreciates what you are doing.
I have seen so many Huberman Lab Podcast and enjoy them all. But something about this one I found really interesting.
I've recently moved away from home (NYC) during the pandemic. It's got me appreciating the way that people from home show love. It ain't perfect, but it's what I know. Thank you for your dedication in teaching science! It's only grown my appetite for more!
Dr Michael Greger Podcast ??
Great! Thank you and Dr Feldman for bringing up the importance of studying the “breathing methods practice” for health!
Brilliant scients! Professor Hubemann and Dr. Feldman briging true science to us all. I love all the episodes!
halfway throught but i cannot resist commenting... that costello print in the frame.. i love it so much
This podcast takes my breath away. Inhale exhale once again much appreciation to Dr. Andrew Huberman and team.
I really appreciate how Professor Huberman facilitated this conversation. There is a lot to be learned from this episode, and it's more than the science of respiration.
Simply cannot get enough of the podcast. A great privilege to be given the opportunity to listen and learn from Dr. Feldman. I appreciate your Science for all & that you seem to unpack or wheel back at exactly the point in any conversation, where I feel lost or would like a deeper dive! Brilliant. Thank For sharing Dr. Sinclair with us also. Enjoying his 7 episode PC on Longevity. You are truly a Scientist for the Sciences (no ego / disdain for competition versus collaboration).Appreciated and Applauded.
THANK YOU for a beautiful and enlightening conversation with Dr. Feldman Andrew! And I totally agree on your 2022 trend predictions. If I could also add Quercetin supplementation and diet diversity (for our gut microbes!) to the mix🙏💜🤗
Dr. Huberman, thank you so much for all that you do. Please do an episode on bipolar/mania, if you can!
The intellectual wit is on another level
I don't remember thanking you for this talk, you and Dr. Feldman literally saved my life when I had covid. Much love, appreciation and many thanks to for you both.
Dr. Huberman just want to let you know your podcast has changed my life for the better. Been doing nasal breathing more, read Dopamine Nation, How Emotions Are Made, Lifespan since. Used the cold to cheeks & hands trick, etc. Added Apigenin to good effect. Keep up the great work!!!
What is the cold to check and hand trick? What is Apigenin?
Talking about my experience, the real game changer has been just forcing myself to close my mouth and breath trough my nose. 24h/day. It's a new life for me
Ive started doing the same since about 5 days. How did it influenced your life? Im not really detecting any difference, since i was a half mouth half nasal breather.
@@Gjini99 i really think and hope that my epilepsy is gone thanks to nasal breathing. Above all, my stress level is below zero, mental focus at the top while before I couldn't even talk to somebody without having my brain in confusion. For me it's a revolution. With nasal breathing I mean literally closing the mouth 24h/day and breathing only through my nose (not just 10 minutes or so)
@@zambrocca sounds really impressive and im happy for you. I hope it also benefits me like this.
@@zambrocca you tried fasting? Keto carnivore atkins or just plain not eating.....
Just curious if any of those have worked for you.
@@isaarunarom7830 once I tried 3 days fasting and the 3rd day I had a seizure. Often I went into keto but stress level wasn't still OK and I always felt at risk of seizure. Most of all I didn't accept the fact that I could have a seizure just because I was out of ketosis. Indeed I was right. For sure ketosis ensure a low stress level but right breathing is much more powerful and now if I want to have a treat I don't have to feel worried anymore.
One of the fastest growing channel on UA-cam. Every video has insane about of value. Insane = People who can easily charges atleast $97 for one video amount of content shared in this channel.
Dr Huberman, you have the most incredible guests as many do as well, but what makes the difference between you and others are your brilliant questions and allowing your guests to answer them without making it about your own ego 🙏🏽
Sitting at your feet while you have these incredible conversations has become a highlight of my weeks. I love that I have to stop periodically and let it sink in, so it takes me a couple days to get through. This particular conversation was refreshingly deep in detail. Many of us live for the details. 😁 Thank you both for expanding our understanding of breathing. It’s also fun to see the genuine respect and affection you share with your scientific peers, Andrew.
Last week’s podcast on habits had me running the 21 day experiment. Daily time doing some breath work was one of the six I chose to attempt. It made me giggle to see the title for this week. 😄 I’ve been spontaneously choosing the technique of the day, and is been so much fun I can see this one becoming a daily habit by day 21. Thanks, both of you, for helping me improve my life. 🤗💜 We look forward to Part 2.
Not sure how common this knowledge is but I figure with a crowd focused on breathing it would fit. When your sinuses are clogged or stuffy and it's impeding your ability to get a full enough inhale or exhale through your nose you can do what I call the Nose-Plate Wiggle and the Gravity Drain.
The Wiggle involves taking two fingers and pressing them into the space just above the bridge of your nose but below your brow. Then press your tongue into the roof of your mouth right where it sits when you say a hard letter T. Alternate pressing on both to wiggle your Nose-Plate helping to loosen clogs.
The Gravity Drain works best after the Wiggle. Look straight up, support the back of your head with a hand if you need to. You want your neck just past the point where the joint rests into place. Doing this creates a mostly vertical channel that lets things drain.
I've done this any time Im congested and it doesn't cure it but it gets back to being able to oxygenate your system with closer to normal efficiency.
Again not sure how commonly known these techniques are, just felt the strongest need to share.
Interesting - thank you. The yogic method is tilt your head away from the nostril that is more clogged and do alternate nostril breathing until the blocked nostril opens. You can lay on your side if you're really clogged (clogged side up).
Ayoo Thank you so much this actually worked very well, Much love!
Go vegan n don’t get clogged!!
This is the definition of a scientist ;curious ,humble and erudite.
Practical education and good vibes, what an episode. Thank you both ❤️
Thank you for your contribution to make this world a little more understandable for all. Could you please do a podcast about tinnitus?
I respect that the doctor acknowledges when there’s a subject outside of his expertise. Makes him more credible in my opinion
wow, Dr. Jack Feldman is a great guy! I love his honesty, naturalness and cheekiness! your work is well appreciated!
Absolutely amazing conversation, up to tears sometime.
Thank you so much for opportunity to listen from Pioneers at their fields and be a witness of such deep calm yet active dialogue
🙏
Such a goal to be introduced as “not only is he at the top of his field; he founded the field”
It's happening just as I said it would...the healing phase of being "scared to death" is pneumonia, aka "flu". So as people are released from the solitary confinement of their homes (because of media and government lies based on the fraudulent Germ Theory), and people begin to get happy and feel less stressed, the result will be the healing phase....of pneumonia, flu, colds, general sickness. You can also see the light sensitivity, appendicitis in some, numerous tooth problems and gum swelling, laryngitis, etc. The fear campaign has caused ALL the illnesses, not a Boogey Virus.
Every disease is based on the Germ Theory, which was the theory of ONE man over 100 years ago. It was never proven to be 100% valid, and has not even been QUESTIONED again. Why? In order for a theory to be valid, it must be reproduceable in each and every person 100% of the time. Every single person exposed to a "virus" MUST get sick from it 100% of the time, over and over again. It's how you PROVE a theory is valid. This was never done. Scientists used to think witches and witchcraft were valid!! Educated people?? hahaha!! If you cannot "catch" cancer, arthritis or diabetes from another person, then you cannot "catch" a cold or flu. There is no such thing that only SOME diseases are communicable, but not all. It's either all or none of them...they are all based on the same Germ Theory. If you can't “catch" someone's lung cancer, you can't "catch" their colds or flu. Upsetting and distressing events in a person's life is what causes ALL cancer and cancer-equivalent disease, cold, flu, pneumonia, bronchitis, etc. A massive fear campaign will CAUSE people to be "worried sick", but sickness doesn't happen until people resolve their fears. Why do you think kids get sick in October? Because their fear of going back to school and being upset about it finally dissolves, and they get back into their routines. What the media and government is doing to people is criminal.
So of course, when everyone is allowed to escape the hostage situation the governments have put their people into, and they start relaxing about the "scary virus" that's not in any way transmissible, they will begin their healing phase (get sick), and the corrupt governments will call it a different “scary” word, a different Boogey Man coming to get you.....repeat the same mistakes that never worked from the beginning, re-institute the same restrictions that only made people more traumatized, and more panic will ensue as well as martial law, a removal of all your rights, and you let it happen. The longer people allow this government to hold them hostage in their homes, the more severe the "sickness" will be. Western Medicine is pure fraud, and people's lives are destroyed because of it. Welcome to the United States of China.
Out standing in his own field
@@AgendaInMind powerful, can you link some references to back up your claims?
He discovered the breathing.....the stupid yogis didn't know anything until "professor Feldman " explain to them.......🥳🥳🥳
@@nosferatu2242 The Yogis never left written ecords of what they did and why. They just passed on their secrets to another Brahmin by word of mouth - sort of "Brahmin Whispers". Compare that with the attitude of Messrs. Huberman and Feldman who give what they know freely to the world. That may give a hint why there is no comparison....if you care to think about it!
Thank you for this important episode and hosting Jack to share his wealth of knowledge with the world!
Thanks to you,prof. I am pleased to say you have made profound changes in my life, by the deep thorough information you have brought to light, regarding our magical bodies and minds.
When going thru labor birthing pains aka contractions, having a steady focused breathing pattern really helps with the birthing process.
Ok
I could attest to that
I don’t want to be horrible, but who doesn’t know this?
Can this be applied to pooping ?
USING BREATHING WORK HELPED MY PATIENTS TO HAVE NATURAL DELIVERIES WITHOUT DRIPS,MEDICATIONS FOR LABOUR PAIN.
So pleased to see this- I've been trying to focus on nasal breathing for the last few weeks to improve immunity and sleep & have already felt a bit of a difference (certainly with sleep). Every time I comment I want to just say- thank you again for your podcasts & for sharing your knowledge with us. Hopefully, our collective consciousness improves- & you're definitely on the side of trying to improve our evolutionary potential as a species. ❤
Thank you Dr. Huberman ! Your podcast is Extremely important brother. You make the medical information clear & very easy to absorb. Your way of speaking & how you convey the information is Clear & easily digested by average people. I've been immensely enlightened about my mind, body, & gut through listening your Awesome podcast dr. Huberman. BTW, Your voice is really nice to listen to & is very calming. Thanks again. Peace & much Love to you brother
As many have already said... this podcast has made such a wonderful difference to my life; personal and professional. This was another great interview and so interesting...thank you both
Wow!! Huge gratitude for such amazing interesting information! You scientists are the gems of our world. Thank you so much! 🙏🙏🤗
Dr. Jack Feldman, "a scholar with great intelligence and wit"
Thank you very much professor.
Thankyou so much for what you do.
Your podcasts are so good!! I love them
And.... funny enough I have a new neighbour, we were chatting about me in isolation for a week and I said UA-cam and Andrew Huberman got me through
He was so surprised and impressed and said he listens to you all the time too .... nice little connection that put a huge smile on our faces 😀
Thank You Dr Huberman and Feldman! As a Respiratory Therapist I really enjoyed this podcast about the respiratory system, the diaphragm, sighs and different breathing practices. I’ve treated many patients on mechanical ventilators, asthma and copd. Also, recently started a breathing practice of my own. It has definitely made a difference with pain control and the anxiety associated with the pain. Thank You and looking forward to episode 2.
Love seeing the enthusiasm in your eyes as you talk about the various subjects. So informative and accessable for laymen.
And laywoman you sexist pos 🤣
To me the so called Air Hunger Drill is a jack of all trades. Complete exhalation, breath hold, followed by some isometric or medium bodyweight exercise like push up, squats, inhale if the urge is too strong then catch your breath and calm it down as fast as possible. To me, this exercise combines the best of the best. The full exhalation encourages you to inhale with the full range of motion of the diaphragm, so it Re establishes diaphragmatic breathing. The breath hold and exercise raises the co2 levels and buteyko has shown the benefits of this clearly. The catching of your breath after the exercise really trains you to catch your breath and calm it down, much more efficiently than any counting or box breathing does. It really spikes energy levels in zero time. Something inbetween a small wim hof round and buteyko exercise. Genius.
This sounds very interesting .
Never heard of this .
Going to give it a shot. Im already thinkng its going to help just from the sound of it. I had a freak 'accident' that altered my breath in a negative manner. For years Ive been SLOW LY learning ways to get it back to normal. The lungs also weakened. To much to describe but your comment is inspiring, thanks 👍😊
@@bellezavudd hey, sorry to hear that, I wish you the best of improvement. It might be a little aggressive to begin with this exercise. I've learned a lot from German breathing physical therapy, especially during times of long covid clients. To begin I would suggest to practice proper positioning in order to assist the respiration muscles and reduce the weight your diaphragm has to do to love the ribcage. In German we call this the "kutschersitz", a variation of the tripod position. The PRI institute as well as Eric Goodman's foundational Training provide good instructions on proper positioning to encourage optimal ribcage expansion during inhalation. Nonetheless, I found that a combination of the following would provide a very successful entrance in "proper" respiration:
1. Get into some form of tripod position where your arms are supporting your ribcage
2. Exhale all the air out of your lungs in a sighing manner
3. Do the "double inhale" as in Hubermans physiological sigh to inflate all the avioli
4. Exhale as slowly as you possibly can, if so though the nose (feather breathing), if not through pursed lips, even up until the point of slight panicking on which you repeat the process.
I wish you the best of success and hope I could provide a little bit of help. 🙏
Great discussion, long await by me. Lots of info!! I’ll need to listen again with pen and paper, as it was tricky to glean protocols.
I’ve been following Buteyko Breathing for 12 years and was surprised not to hear any reference to it. Maybe it’s because he’s a Russian. Especially interesting there is the references to the Bohr effect in the regulation of oxygen/carbon dioxide levels.
Thanks as always !
This class taught me much about breathing and physiology of our amazing breaths. Thank you Dr H and Dr Feldman. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you, Andrew, and thank Jack, too of course, for this phenomenal talk.
You bring a lot of value to so many people, it is astonishing.
Can you do me a favor and do an episode on migraines? My sister and mother suffer severely from it and nothing seems to really help. I would be so grateful if you could explain the science and tools for keeping migraines at bay. Thank you, Andrew
I remember, after one of your first episodes where you talked about Physiological Sigh, realizing how much breathing well or the lack of it can affect our lives...in regulating stress and so on, And realized that I always had to breathe through my mouth because my nose was halfway blocked, but lived my life like that anyways because- well, how do you know how normal people breathe?
Thanks for opening my eyes on the matter, getting me to seek treatment, making me relearn breathing the way it should be done, making me say SO THIS IS HOW THEY BREATHE and moreover, inspiring me to decide to study our nervous system.
Every episode there is a piece of knowledge I wanna pass on to the people I love
good
I would love a segment on altitude and the general effects (long-term and short-term) of living and/or training at altitude. I’ve lived most of my adult life at altitude (5K-9K) and there are some really special differences (many not related to athleticism) as compared to sea level/intermediate. That’s my wish, Dr. H. Thanks ever so much for all you do:)
Jack is both brilliant and insanely likable. Great conversation.
Just came back to United State, from Colombia but while in there I didn’t missed any of your Podcasts thanks, they are amazing and everything and everyone you present or invite are incredible!!! Thanks 😊 for getting so much knowledge to us “Mind Curious”
Hey Andrew, first off, thank you for the incredible job you do with these podcasts. I do have one suggestion that I believe could help myself and many others which is to briefly include on-screen lists to briefly summarize when you mention multiple points especially in the solo podcasts. I find that seeing things in a list especially the tools you provide can make it very easy to remember them and revisit the podcast when I need a refresher. Thank you again!
Fantastic Feedback/Proposal! I completely agree.
Isn't this available with the chapters?
If you click the vid description it has a written transcript, I like to take notes from that as it plays 🙏
@@daveyboy4715 hey Davey, thank you for this tip! I can not find the transcript though. I mean, there are the subtitels. In the description there is a summary. But where is the transcript?
Ps I found it in the browser version of UA-cam. Not in my app version. How great is that! Thank you for the tip!!!
thanks for bringing impactful information for the masses
Thank you for YOUR interest in science
Brilliant, as per usual! Loved hearing this emerging field and Jacks humility together with his expertise is informative, entertaining and transformative. Breath work can allow hidden trauma to surface, glad we’ve covered that in recent episodes. And TBI recovery would be a welcome future topic.Thanks again.
Breathe consciousness changed my life to the deepest. Physically and emotionally.
Also, Patrick McKeown would had some essential knowledge to complete this great interview. Oxygen Advantage with Boutenko roots have those informations that no one got.
Also among other yogi books, Iyengar book Light on Pranayama has immense insights.
I hope to hear more from breathing interviews from you Andrew. The world need to know more about this master tool that is so simple but is so complex too.
The army use it, great yogis master it, Buddhist focus on it. They for sure have serious reasons for that.
And most of us... suffer from bad breathing patterns days and night, that we are mostly unaware of, but have terrible consequences on our body and mind.
Breathing deep isn't enough. The anatomy and physiology of breathing should be a specific subject in education from children to elders to really transform life experience.
You're the best Andrew. You have to be the best looking professor out there too! 😉
So true 👍
Excellent podcast. When listening and reflecting on my own journey of exploring breathwork, and healing my mind from mental disturbances that proved to be of correctable physiological origin, is how psychotropic pharmaceutics influence respiration. For many, including myself, breath work has been an integral part of stopping psychotropic medications after being on them for years. Love the info about how laughing influences respiration patterns. Many people experience laughter differently when medicated. More recently I’ve been experimentally with tweaking low dose thyroid medication of thyroxine (t4) and liothyronine (t3) to achieve optimal levels and one of the most challenging things has been how my baseline breathing (and emotional state) is impacted by increasing or decreasing these hormones. Happy I’ve found the magic dosages for me now :) It has been an integral part of my yogic path of healing to experiment with how intentionally using my breath can help me have more serenity and focus and energy during my days and quality sleep at night.
I have been looking forward to your Monday morning podcasts. Thanks a lot for your work.
I love this podcast. Breathing techniques have always been of interest to me due to a long history of allergy & asthma has now run last couple of years being into regular meditation. P.s.I love that you asked Dr. Feldman about supplementation. I take Mg threonate daily. I started taking 3 years ago due to starting keto. It's the only magnesium that doesn't cause me digestive stress & it greatly helps with reducing muscles cramps I was getting in my extremities during weight training for bodybuilding competition & it has helped my sleep quality greatly after going into full menopause! Mg- threonate has been a little miracle for me to sustain function both cognitively & physically!
What dosage do you take?
@@stephaniemeeker5977 I've been taking magnesium threonate from "Vitacost," their brand. 3 Caps is = 2010 mg of magnesium threonate, but this converts to 144 mg total of magnesium. I usually have 1 cap 3 times a day. If having trouble sleeping, I have increased my night dose to 2 Caps.
What an incredible episode with two of our favorite neurobiologist! Honored to be a part of this breath movement.
Yes! Making breath practice accessible to the world!
Dat Costello picture is adorable. Thank you for your work Andrew, you are really making the world a better place!
Thanks to Dr. Feldman for sharing his valuable knowledge and practices! 🙏 Loved the conversation!
In nursing school, the subject of respiration and airway was always held in the upmost importance.
are you nurse ?
@@Q_QQ_Q yes
@@memastarful cool
Perfect timing as always
This is a superb interview/dialogue and a fascinating topic. You can learn how a devoted scientist--one with integrity, curiosity, and humility--thinks, experiments, analyzes, and very consciously and responsibly gives credit to the work of others. Also and importantly, Feldman kept emphasizing that in the human body, there is no one pathway, in isolation, that generates an effect--a useful understanding applicable to innumerable other things in this world. I deeply appreciate Huberman's unsensationalistic approach to interviewing and respect his candor and matter-of-fact tone when describing sponsors and their products.
Thank you so much for the valuable, practical life changing advice.
I recently went to hospital for a relative 'intimidating' prostate procedure for which I had to 'take someting' to reduce my or rather the extreme anxiety.
I decided upon your physiological sighs - various combinations based on the unpredictable triggers from the mind.
Amazing - the sense of self control I got from it.
Thank you.
Hi Andrew your podcasts are amazing. Your teaching can be understood by the common people of any age. The tools you have suggested are really helpful. My daughter of age 13 also listens to ur podcasts and says it is very informative and easily understandable. Thank you. - From India.
