Andrew Huberman is an American neuroscientist and neurobiologist at Stanford University. He is well known for his morning routine and productivity tips, so I decided to try Andrew Huberman's morning routine to see if I felt a difference in my productivity. As someone who has my own 5am morning routine, I wanted to try a NEW 5am morning routine :)

Would you try cold showers every day? ☠️🥶
11:49 your voice is so adorable when you’re in the cold shower.😂
Yes. But not ice cold. 😅
I start with warm and at the end turn the water cold. Ease into it.
Heck no, no cold showers for me. LOL!! I'm a wimp. 😂
I like cold weather, but cold shower .Hell No !
Dopamine doesn't rise when we do something nice , it rises in anticipation of doing something nice. The dopamine comes before the cake :)
However, Dopamine rises post cold shower, because the cold triggers sympatic nervous system (bc your body think youre in danger), which increases noradrenalin production which again increases dopamine production.
I go winter swimming in a public pool with a sauna, and there are definitely some regulars who seem very addicted to that adrenalin and dopamine rush!
That makes sense!! As of now I still don’t anticipate the cold showering ever feeling nice 🥺 but I do like how I feel after! Maybe the more I do it I’ll become like the winter swimmers 🥶
@@mayaleex3 Andrew Huberman actually talks about that you don’t want the shower to feel good because if it feels good you don’t get the same rush afterwards. 🤷♀️ Apparently it’s the fact that it’s so unpleasant that makes it so much more effective.
i thought dopamine acts as a motivator aswell as pleasure (which would mean it does get released when we do something nice) like thats why its addictive because your brain yearns for that feelings of pleasure when dopamine is released (like gambling) this is a genuine question as im studying psychology at the moment
@@skylenco5709 dopamine is not involved directly in making us feel pleasure, meaning, we would still be able to enjoy a cake even if we weren't able to produce dopamine. When we anticipate cake (or another pleasure/addiction), dopamine is produced, and that motivates us to pursue the cake (and keep us hooked on drugs, gambling, sex, etc).
So in the case of a gambling addict, even though they lose most games, their body knows it's possible and feels amazing to win, so when they have an opportunity to gamble, dopamine is released and motivates them to pursue the win.
I hope this makes sense! (I'm a nurse, so I know the basics, but am in no way an expert or qualified to teach this)
@@skylenco5709 I think scientists used to believe that, but newer research shows that if we couldn't produce dopamine, we would still be able to feel pleasure, but wouldn't be motivated to pursue it. So dopamine is linked to addiction, because it is the driver of addictive behaviour. Someone with a gambling addiction will get a dopamine rush at the opportunity of a gamble bc of the opportunity of winning and feeling pleasure, even if they lose. So they go back for the anticipation, rather than the pleasure. Hope that makes sense!
My personal opinions:
- As someone who has tried waking up at 5, the best thing is ultimately to wake up at a time which makes sense for you and your schedule. I didn't like waking up at 5 while I was at college because I found that was _too much_ morning time and not enough evening time. 6am worked best for me. Waking up as early as possible for no reason isn't helpful, nor is it necessarily possible. That being said though, as I've been trying to incorporate some extra things into my own morning routine, I think I will be going back to trying 5:30am because a bigger morning routine needs more time.
- Might try the salt water thing? Kinda makes sense.
- Americans, darlings, normal water is the best thing for you, not all this consumerist juice stuff.
- I can barely focus as it is! Definitely not on an empty stomach!
This video needs a disclaimer. *Do not watch near your Google Device(s)* You've turned off my lights and set an alarm so far 😂😂😂
HAHAA see you at 5:30am 👋
The cold shower thing…. It doesn’t have to be the whole shower. You can alternate every 20-30 sec between warm and cool water, and or finish of with a cold rinse at the end to boost your circulation
Ahhhh I need to try that!
I love how your editing style has grown and what it currently is, Maya ❤ Well done for that cold shower, too!
I feel very similarly about cold showers I feel like it was replacing an enjoyable part of my morning routine that I look forward to showering and made it into something stressful that I dreaded.
Awww that makes sense - I LOVE hot hot hot showers so this was stressful 😂
while I feel the exact opposite! especially living in a hot country, cold showers are like desserts for me! 😅❤️ I only take hot showers when we go to hotels 😅 but, I can confirm that the temperature YOUR BODY CURRENTLY WANTS, is the BEST temperature! (cause I feel fatigue when I shower with cold water during a cold time, which is the ber months)
Love how you spent your 90 min block. I was thinking about the fact that I couldn't get devotional/quiet time in and "work" b4 work. Including quiet time in 90 min block is definitely classified as focused, productive time.
Yes, I agree! I feel like I have to schedule that in or else it’s easy to put it to the side🥺
@@mayaleex3 You're definitely not alone in that. The enemy's oldest tactic is distraction. We have to get it in before temptation to do other things sets in.
Blessed 🙏🏻 I woke up. I am not sick. I have clothes to wear. I have running water. I have food to eat. Life is good. I am thankful to God.
A note on intermittent fasting…people love to talk about how healthy it is, but the tests have really only been done on men. Women’s bodies work differently, and it’s not a healthy practice for women to engage in. Also…the reason that you might feel so alert in the morning doing intermittent fasting is because the lack of food (especially if you couple the empty stomach with a cup of coffee as many people do) triggers your stress hormones. So it’s similar to how in really stressful situations (like a mother lifting a car off her child, for instance) you might get a jolt of clarity that helps you think better, makes you stronger, etc. But in the long term putting that much stress on your body is not good.
Personally I’ve tried it and I didn’t do well with it. I’ve started back eating 3 meals a day and I haven’t been nearly as hungry.
Look up Dr. Mindy Pelz, she wrote the book Fast Like a Girl. She has over 20 years of experience on women and fasting, and the impact it has on hormones. Her website has a lot of great info, there are multiple interviews with her on UA-cam.
I do have a genuine question. Where did you get this information if it hasn’t really been tested on women?
Dr. Mindy also mentions that studies do show promising results if your eating window is open earlier during the day, which supports what grandmas and great grandmas used to say about not eating within 3 (or more?) hours of bedtime.
@@amethyst_stori They talk about it a fair amount on the Freely Rooted Podcast. The podcast focuses on the pro-metabolic approach to food and wellness for women specifically.
Awww this was such a sweet video!!!! I love your morning routine videos already, so this was ofc going to be fun regardless, but it really was so cute and fun to watch!!! I also appreciated when you shared your thoughts about this specific routine and mentioned how it's important to still find what works for you, that is so true for many reasons (such as not otherwise being inclined to stick to it, being less productive, less motivated, etc.)!!! Also, the scene at 1:51 of you standing there waiting for the sunlight was soooooo funnyyyy lol Maya!!!!! 😂😂 I also loved the audio choices you picked for each scene in this video and the sound effects!!!! Overall, a very fun Maya video!!!! 😄💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
So I’m a big fan of cold showers in the morning! Especially when I go outside for a run and get home sweaty and hot. But what I do is 1. A few drops of peppermint oil in the bottom of the shower 2. I hop in when it’s cold for 1 minute 3. I switch it to hot and enjoy a steamy pepperminty warm shower . But I still feel like I get the health benefits and energy of that cold shower.
Hi Maya! Thanks a lot for being a big part of my life!! You are my source of motivation and self discipline !! I luv u!!
Thanks a lot for so much luv Maya!! Thanks a lot for the likes guys!
I want to be more productive in the morning. You motivate me to wake up early, exercise, and be productive. I really want to achieve those goals this year. Thank you, Maya!😊💕
Awww you’ve got this!! 🥹💕
i love your morning routine videos they helped make a routine that makes me productive thank you so much
Im trying so hard to be productive and I dont understand how you do it!!!! I'm honestly really jealous of your sucess. Everything about you is aesthetic and your videos are honestly inspiring!! Tysm! As a student I am trying to come up with the perfect morning, night, and afterschool routine for myself!
It’s ok I feel like a potato 99% of the time but I’m thankful y’all accept me the way I am ☺️💕 you have to find what works best for you!
Being 'productive' looks different to everyone. Think about HOW you want to be productive. As a student, your schedule changes semester to semester, so your routine will have to shift as your class times shift. Do you also work? Do you need more, less or average study time? Once you sketch out your current semester class times, you can then make an outline schedule. Don't worry abut how OTHER people do things - do what works for you.
Yay! I can’t wait to watch it!!!❤
absolutely relaxing ❤
I had no other option but take cold showers every morning in Guatemala for two months 😅 the best thing about it is my skin got super glowy and clean!!
I meant clear lol
Keep going maya 😊🎉💜
Last year i started cold showers in summer, i kept it up thru the winter. Fantastic exhilaration
Whenever I need some inspiration to get productive, I watch your productive morning routines. 🙌🏻 Though not so sure about this cold shower. Maybe just the cold blast at the end (to also seal the pores…?) like the cold pool dip at the jimjilbang? 😅
I love your videos. You are so creative. I love watching your videos. And listening to you because your voice is so sweet. ❤
Cold shower is very relaxing☺️
Dopamine does not always equals bad addiction. Normal levels of dopamine also keep our moods stable.
I love it!
Great video! Very interesting!
I understand why I feel happier living in Brazil...I take cold shower at least two times a day (its really hot) and I am exposure to sun really early (5am here its already day) I sometimes go to the beach at 7am before going to work
The moment you said "read my bible", i instantly liked and subbed! ❤❤❤
It is a lower-rate release of dopamine so in order to become a person that 'craves' a cold shower you need to do it daily for at least 8 weeks
I’m definitely gonna try that egg recipe!
great video!
Dopamine is more for motivation/pleasure, seratonin is more happy feels. I never feel like working out but I feel good after lol I wish the dopamine kicked in like a pre-workout.
Facts
Awesome video
Maybe the dopamine is from being *out* of the shower lol 😅 I don't know. One reason I stopped doing coldish showers occasionally was I was dreading it and needed happy things 😂
I feel that lolol
Lol for the shower(assuming you or anyone else wants to try again) try starting off with it warm/luke warm then turn it colder. Also really try to take deep breaths. If it helps you can do cold warm cold warm cold (just end on cold).
Genius 🤯 I really went 0 to 100 real quick
Yes this is the only way I can do it 😭
The intro with you trying it cracked me up
I feel like this routine is impossible to do for someone who has kids who needs to get them ready in the am and can't just walk out of the house in the am for a walk and leave them home alone.
That makes total sense - Andrew Huberman doesn’t have any kids 🥲!
I love your videos
Cold shower tip: armpit first then tummy, it prepared my body for the cold shock. 😊
hi! longtime viewer and longtime cold shower taker haha! i just wanted to pop in and say my two cents! 1) i find the cold showers are SO MUCH EASIER if you do them right after a workout. so you're all warm and sweaty and the cold shower is (a little) less painful. 2) i think the dopamine rise is from the delayed gratification! for instance, going on social media boosts my dopamine but a get a bigger and longer boost from completing a hard task. it doesn't make me WANT to complete more hard tasks (i am a BIG TIME procrastinator) but i can feel that the dopamine release from completing a difficult thing is bigger than a short term thing. no idea if this is 100% science backed but maybe it helps you! love your videos and always happy to see you grow!!!
Awww this was so informative and helpful! I’ll need to try the cold showers post workout - still so daunting, but I did feel good after!
@@mayaleex3 youre so welcome!! also i think other people commented this but i rarely do a FULL shower when its cold. ill rinse everything off and wash my face with the cold shower, but then at night ill do a warm shower to wash more :)
You’re a trooper for doing the cold shower lol
I think these routines create more stress. Anyone with young kids know you can’t do any of these routines… but their purpose at that age is to help you not give a shit. So those little shits are actually stress relieving!😂
Life is unbelievably hard with littles. I thought life was hard before I had kids. LMAO. I had no idea what hard was.
It's someone else's idea of how to sell a product. I would never do this, because I feel it's a bunch baloney. Being productive looks different to everyone.
Heyo! Awesome trying his morning routine! Def difficult but you powered through! I did want to ask though, where do you get your tank tops?
It’s from Vuori!! My fave hehe :)
Good to see you trying Andrew Huberman's routine. I wonder whose other routines you can try.
Maybe your husband's?
Thanks husbando💕🥰💕
I think it's adorable how she keeps calling her partner "HUSBAND!" I can't wait to do that one day 😂💕
This is tough!
Seeing you reading Jerry Bridges made me subscribe!
awww I love this book so much :D
Lovely maya 😊😅🎉😂❤❤
I’ve been wanting to get into a cold shower routine but can’t work up the courage lol
Ice bath in the middle of the snow is next level
As for the alarm, you could use your apple watch as alarm, so it doesn't wake up your husband. My watch just vibrates on my arm so it's silent and doesn't bother anyone (also makes me wake up easier)
That’s a great idea! I’m really sensitive to sensory things, so having my watch on me is difficult because I can’t wait to take it off when I don’t need it 🤣 but I should try it!
Pills to bypass pain
That's me in cold showers ❄❄❄
The other benefits of a cold shower is it boosts stem cell production. That said, I don't usually look forward to a cold shower either lol.
I've took cold showers for 8 months or so, before winter came :')
Planning on starting again once it gets warmer.
The thing about dopamine: it doesn't rise because the shower feels nice, it rises because the body enters the fight or flight mode, cuz it thinks you are in danger and releases noradrenaline (huberman talks about that bit i think), and you don't have to shower with ice cold water to trigger that response! It just have to be cold enough to be unconfortable. At some point someone told me it have to be at least 10°C below your normal temperature at the moment or so. When I got used to it, I showered with ice cold water in summer, but in autumn it had to be hotter because it was getting cold outside and I'm sensitive to low tenperatures. It was stil cold water. I'm just sating that the tenperature i was using had to adapt with my circumstances.
It's just have to be unconfortable enough to trigger the noradrenaline to be released.
Well when you show yourself outside , said that the sun is out yet .Well it look very bright what I was watching .
Hehe it was still dark but my camera has night mode so that you guys don’t see a darn screen
Are there times when you don't feel like getting up early? That used to be my struggle during my school years. 😊
Of courseeee 🥲🥲 usually the weekends, but my body clock is so used to waking up that I “sleep in” until 7am 😂
@@mayaleex3Oh wow, hehe that is amazing!! 😂
When she said "I'm alive, I made it..." 😂 Cold showers are tough at first but the results are positive.
The cold shower thing only has to be for like 30sec to a minute I think it doesn't have to be the whole time
what if our water is never as cold? it's cool but not enough to dread taking a bath in the mornings.
Can you do a video on your bible and other books you incorporate with it
Hello from Costa Rica 🇨🇷 Magnesium citrate powder is the best thing that can happen to you. I had severe anxiety and panic attacks and thanks to magnesium my life changed. I recommend that you try it in powder form because the body absorbs it better❤God Bless❤
Every time you talked to Google, you opened my Google assistant on my phone 😅
Oopsie hehe hi google
Maya☺️ , what was the cushion foundation you used in the beginning?
It’s La Mer! It’s really, really pricey so I use it sparingly 😭
@@mayaleex3 Ty for the reply💜
What time do you go to bed?
You eat later. Just something your body has to get used to. Same with cold showers... Wouldn't do it that cold straight away. Start warm, turn slightly colder and finish even colder for about 10 seconds. Do this repeatedly and start challenging yourself to do 20 seconds and try even colder. This way it isn't as much of a shock to your system, but you still get the benefits.
I believe the delay in eating was for fat loss. So you probably don't have to do it if you have low fat, or may be only 30-45 days a year?
Random question, what highlighter brand do you use for when highlighting in your book?
The best highlighters!! They don’t bleed through the pages :) amzn.to/48mLFno
2:56, Do I have to drink water after brushing my teeth and go for a walk or it's recommend to go for a walk and return home to drink water?
Do whatever works for you. If you feel you are being productive enough, no need to change your routine. I refuse to take a cold shower. I don't get up and walk in the mornings, but I do have a dog and we walk in the afternoon or evening. I eat breakfast, I drink tea, I like to sit in the sun - just not at at 5 AM. Huberman is just selling his version of 'fitness'. There actually no real science behind it.
12:33 what’s the bowl you are using for eating the egg and rice ? They look great and can’t find them 😞
Ahhhh my mom gave it to me a long time ago so I don’t recall ): I also only have one and not a set 🥲🥲
My husband swears on cold showers.
Built different
Mine too.
I think the reward cue to your brain is getting OUT of the cold shower lol
by 7:30am i was already sleepy for them XD i am not gonna survive this
The only thing I have to say, is that your squats seem to be a little too deep. I’m gonna workout class right now for school and I was doing the same thing literally today and my professor was like don’t do that you need to do a full squat, not an Asian squat. It has to do with what muscles are being activated and deactivated in that motion. Other than that I’m definitely gonna try this routine. I already get up at like six so waking up 30 more minutes isn’t a big deal for me.
❤❤
I use an apple watch when i need to wake up earlier than my husband. It just buzzes my wrist, vs making a sound, so I am less likely to wake him.
My husband and I use different sounds for alarms. My brain only reacts to the sound of my alarm. I don't even know the sound of his alarm clock 😁
Me too!! 🤣 now that I think of it - I can’t recall what his sounds like
I have a question, so you eat 마약계란 cold?? I've always had that doubt ㅠ.ㅠ
It’s been cooked already so yes :D
LOL love the shower montage. Do you ever fast as a Christian? JW based on your meal comments. :)
I used to!
This is the second time I’ve heard of Andrew Huberman.❤😊
I am trying to wake up early, but IF is just not for me sadly. It gives me horrible horrible heart burn throughout the day. So guys please be mindful of what suits you. We an always choose what suits us and leave what doesn't.
Oh no :( yes, it may not be for everyone and that is 100% ok!
When I grow up... I want to be just like Andrew HUberman hahahaah... what a G! ;) No but... I think they should have known. Not into claiming exclusivity then lying. The service all of that ...erm... anyway. Definitely getting his cardio in!
I have always woken up at the time I intended to, no need for me to have an alarm, and also I have mastered the art of not waking up to his alarm, he wakes up at 3:30am and I wake at 6am. even when he kisses me goodbye I dont wake up, I just see it in the CCTV when I review it.
I love the routine but the cold shower though 😢
5:00 AM
Beautiful arma
1:49, Oh your husband is sleeping. Hope he sleeps well and wake up after sunrise.
Me going to sleep at 5:30🥲
Me: I should try this, I need a boost in productivity.
Me, Looking at Clock: Oh, it's 2:30 a.m. Not sure 2.5 hours of sleep will be enough. Huh. There's probably a connection there.
I have never said “okay google, stop” without aggressive undertones 😂 maybe I should be nicer …
Remember, YOU are female, of different age - there are limitations to his studies.
I live in Pennsylvania. Its snowing right now and sunrise is 6:55.😂 I'm gonna have a brief moment of hate for Californians-- not you, but Huberman- who are totally out of touch lol.
Imagine going on an outdoor walk in the snow in the dark ☠️
People with certain conditions can't do intermittent fasting or drink more sodium. Please ask ur doctor before do changes on ur diet. :)
Maya, please come to the 'gospel meetings' in your area. For the foolishness of preaching aught men to be saved.
Huberman's routine doesn't really work for people that have to go into an office with regular hours or for people who need to get kids ready for school or daycare.
Why o you call him husband ?
I think it's cutee
That’s his name 🤵🏻♂️
Wow… that’s a very long morning routine.
Interesting, Maya but: Cold shower ? Never !!! I like to follow rather Maya Lee´s morning routine than andrew huberman´s. May he be a neuro scientist-the thing is: intermitted fasting is unhealthy and feels very bad ! If god had wanted us to not eat anything temporarily, he would have constructend us in a way, we feel good doing this. Fact is: It feels horibele ! I am not able to think, to work to just be a human being-no wonder: You also never start a car without any fuel in ist.
No thank you. No to 5am.
None of that adds up to a productive day!
