The Optimal Morning Routine – Andrew Huberman

Andrew Huberman, Ph.D., is a neuroscientist and tenured Professor in the Department of Neurobiology at the Stanford University School of Medicine. He has made numerous significant contributions to the fields of brain development, brain function and neural plasticity, which is the ability of our nervous system to rewire and learn new behaviors, skills and cognitive functioning.

Huberman is a McKnight Foundation and Pew Foundation Fellow and was awarded the Cogan Award in 2017, given to the scientist making the most significant discoveries in the study of vision. His lab’s most recent work focuses on the influence of vision and respiration on human performance and brain states such as fear and courage. He also works on neural regeneration and directs a clinical trial to promote visual restoration in diseases that cause blindness. Huberman is also actively involved in developing tools now in use by the elite military in the U.S. and Canada, athletes, and technology industries to optimize performance in high stress environments, enhance neural plasticity, mitigate stress, and optimize sleep.

Work from the Huberman Laboratory at Stanford School of Medicine has been published in top journals including Nature, Science, and Cell and has been featured in TIME, BBC, Scientific American, Discover, and other top media outlets.

In 2021, Dr. Huberman launched the Huberman Lab Podcast. The podcast is frequently ranked in the Top 25 of all podcasts globally and is often ranked #1 in the categories of Science, Education, and Health & Fitness.

  1. Remember these practical tips: Try to get natural light in your eyes within 1 hour of waking up. Try to incorporate exercise as early as possibly. Get in cold water after. Wait 90 minutes before drinking any caffeine. These simple tools can have a profound positive impact on mood, energy, metabolism, dopamine, sleep, focus, body temp and more. Big thank you to Andrew Huberman for sharing so much valuable insight. Please check out the Huberman Lab Podcast for more in-depth information.

  2. Le test d’anxiété de Clara Hartley est réapparu dans mon fil d’actualité aujourd’hui. Je l’avais ignoré les deux premières fois, mais là, l’algorithme semble s’en préoccuper personnellement 😂 Bon, je vais voir de quoi tout le monde parle.

  3. the thing is when u alreadu know this from 0 to 100 and still get seasons of doing all backwards

  4. If you often feel anxious, exhausted and unable to explain why, Clara Hartley’s anxiety quiz could give you something useful to reflect on. It only takes a couple of minutes.

  5. About #1 practice, does anyone have a piece of advice when the alarm clock is set at 5 am and the sun in greece rises on most months at 7 am which is the time that one has to go to work? 🙂
