  • Recently I had the pleasure of hosting a live event in Toronto, ON. This event was part of a lecture series called The Brain Body Contract. My favorite part of the evening was the question & answer period, where I had the opportunity to answer questions from the attendees of each event. Included here is the Q&A from our event in Toronto, ON at Meridian Hall.
    We'll be hosting four live events in Australia in February 2024. Limited tickets remain for our show in Melbourne on February 10, 2024, and Brisbane on February 24, 2024. Our show in Sydney at the Sydney Opera House sold out quickly, so we've added a second show at the Aware Super Theatre on February 18, 2024. For tickets and event details, please visit www.hubermanlab.com/events.
    Thank you to our sponsors

    I am so inspired by you Huberman! I am a 51 yr old woman who used to be a very athletic person and got follicular lymphoma so my body has changed as far as ability. I had a relaspe last year and now on maintenance treatment so doing well! I am an intellectual and love neuroscience so much and I have shifted focus to that passion since my physical body has limitations. I just watch a few of your videos today that talked about your belief in God and praying. I believe kindness with reality is what we all need and I love that you spoke about it. You inspire me to keep going and your humility is so refreshing! I want to start a podcast so your advice to do what you would do anyway is spot on! Thank you for sharing all this free knowledge and kindness! I love that you are being a vessel for your purpose! That's wonderful

    Hey Andrew. Your videos are fantastic and are helping alot. Keep up the work as Im sure its helping many around the world. Will you be creating a video on communication and listening? I think it's important to learn good communication why its so important when speaking to managers seniors presenting or whatever it maybe. Big leaders around the world always have excellent communication I believe we would all benefit from this skill and is a big stumbling block for most for many reasons.

    Such a nice guy! I found so interesting that last focusing exercise. I usually find my connection to the night very pleasing whenever I stop myself looking at the huge dark sky with its total silence... without humans (I'm definitely a night creature). My mind really diverges. It's like I'm traveling without moving. For example, I focus on a star and imagining how big that must be if looked up close... and I also do the inversion by realizing how insignificantly small I am compared to all of that visual spectacle. That feels great... although not doing this in the morning...

It’s so frustrating to continue have claw my way into proper techniques of care after falling into addictions and high risk behaviors because I never learned appropriate coping skills. I also have a multitude of trauma and TBIs so thank you sir and I hope pick your brain someday. If you ever get the chance, please reach out to a Dr. Black at the Topeka VA. He is instrumental to the Psychiatric Wellness Recovery Program. I’d LOVE to hear you two talk. Thank you for progressing our species. ❤

    Dear Dr Huberman,
    A few questions considering breathing and the physiological sigh:
    1. What is the difference between breathing into the diaphragm and the lungs?
    2. Is it beneficial to hold in the breath after inhalation during the physiological sigh? (As they do in Prana Yama)
    3. Is it important and beneficial to make a sighing sound during the exhalation of a physiological sigh? Can you make any sound or no sound at all and get the same results?
    4. Is there a healthy limit to the number of physiological sighs in a row? Is there a risk of hyperventilation? What is an optimal number per day?
    5. Can breathing techniques (ie Qi-Gong, Prana Yama) improve brain and blood oxygenation? Can they heal the body and mind?
    6. Can slowing down your breath increase your lifespan?
    Thank you for all your amazing work! 🙏

    In reaction to the second question..... i mean in response to the second question, i am one who has been court ordered to anger management classes and they all pretty much say the same thing, Is to notice the physical warning signs first so that you are aware that you are becoming angry ( heavy breathing, talking fast, clenched fist, etc). The simple act of just being aware that its happening gives you a chance to pause and just not do anything but breathe
    So the protocol or practice is,
    When agitated, we pause, then respond
    Instead of just instantly reacting
    Hope this helps someone

    I feel like I know all huberman protocols and I have watched all his podcast episodes. I need people ask new questions that havent been covered in his podcast. I need new interesting questions that blow my mind. 2nd question is so interesting to me, I noticed I dont get angry when I do eat plant based, just a few eggs/fish and very low carb but still eat moderate amount of fruits. I lost weight doing that but I didnt get trigged easily. Now, I am back on carb (tho no added sugar n no prossesed foods but I eat sourdough bread n pasta), yeah I get trigged easily now but I dont really explodr but I get angry quickly.

      @CursedWheelieBin 24 дні тому

      Though curious, I’m openly skeptical because I know almost nothing about it and it sounds too much like a sales pitch whenever I do hear about it. By sales pitch I mean that it sounds too simple and too good to be true, with no apparent risks or downsides (that we know of at least).
      Perhaps that also says something about my outlook, so please forgive me if it sounds like I’m being critical. I’m not. As I say: I know nothing.
      I first heard about it in a bizarre UA-cam comment in an ASMR video. Some guy claimed that he would purposefully walk around in the environments featured in the Lord of the Rings movies. Clearly the guy was desperately attempting to escape reality and hide from his real life. It just sounded very avoidant and unhealthy.
      Is normal, regular healthy sleep not enough?
