Show notes
This episode is all about the two major kinds of dreams and the sorts of learning and unlearning they are used for. I discuss REM-associated dreams that control emotional learning and their similarity to various trauma treatments such as ketamine and EMDR. I also discuss Non-REM dreams and their role in motor learning and learning of detailed, non-emotionally-laden information. I relate this to science-backed tools for accessing more of the types of sleep and learning people may want. Other topics are listed in the time stamps below.Read the full show notes for this episode at hubermanlab.com.Thank you to our sponsorsAG1: https://athleticgreens.com/hubermanLMNT: https://drinklmnt.com/hubermanlabWaking Up: https://www.wakingup.com/hubermanTimestamps00:00:00 Introduction 00:00:30 Sponsors: AG1, LMNT & Waking Up 00:03:00 The Dream Mask 00:06:00 Cycling Sleep 00:08:10 Chemical Cocktails of Sleep 00:13:00 Motor Learning 00:16:30 High Performance with Less Sleep 00:17:45 Rapid Eye Movement Sleep 00:20:30 Paralysis & Hallucinations 00:23:35 Nightmares 00:24:45 When REM & Waking Collide 00:25:00 Sleeping While Awake 00:26:45 Alien Abductions 00:29:00 Irritability 00:30:00 Sleep to Delete 00:32:25 Creating Meaning 00:34:10 Adults Acting Like Children 00:36:20 Trauma & REM 00:37:15 EMDR 00:39:10 Demo 00:44:25 Ketamine / PCP 00:45:45 Soup, Explosions, & NMDA 00:48:55 Self Therapy 00:50:30 Note About Hormones 00:51:40 Measuring REM / SWS 00:53:15 Sleep Consistency 00:56:00 Bed Wetting 00:58:00 Serotonin 00:59:00 Increasing SWS 00:59:50 Lucidity 01:02:15 Booze / Weed 01:03:50 Scripting Dreams 01:04:35 Theory of Mind 01:07:55 Synthesis 01:10:00 Intermittent Sleep Deprivation 01:11:10 Snoring Disclaimer 01:11:40 New Topic 01:15:50 Corrections 01:17:25 Closing Remarks Disclaimer & Disclosures Learn more about your ad choices.
