Brief (8-10min) Non-Sleep-Deep-Rest (NSDR) protocols are distinct from meditation & similar but different from Yoga Nidra. Emerging data show they can restore mental & physical vigor, dopamine levels & offset missed hours of sleep. Links to two examples are below (zero cost):
Option 1:
Option 2:

Science-based tools to reduce stress:

1) In Real Time
Physiological Sigh: double-inhale (nasal), then extended exhale to lungs empty (mouth); 1-3X.

2) Raise Stress Threshold
Uncomfortable (but safe) cold exposure.
~12 min per week; 1-5min per session.
Details and references in episodes on Master Stress & Cold Exposure at hubermanlab.com all episodes are time stamped, references in captions, and links provided in newsletters which are also zero cost at Hubermanlab.com.
The term physiological sigh was coined by scientists in the 1930s; not by me. It’s a naturally occurring pattern of breathing that offsets CO2. It has some overlap with traditional breathing techniques but is distinct. Not meant to replace other language.

There was a FDA ruling that NMN is now a drug. There has not (yet) been a call to remove it from supplement sales. There has been a flood of orders. No one knows if/when sales will be halted. My suggestion: learn about NMN vs NR & stand by for more.
For those interested in these topics, @CharlesMBrenner is the best expert on NR. @davidasinclair popularized NMN. Debates aside, maybe someone can voice what each of these has been shown to do in humans, in mice and what anecdotally people experience. (With caveats in mind).
I am getting TONS of questions about the new ruling but I don’t know the details.

In the 1960s and 1970s, psychedelics & meditation were considered conceptually close in academia b/c of their relationship to consciousness, mysticism etc. Now both are the focus of clinical trials, draw substantial funding and PubMed citations are growing, as well as their use.

The “complete fitness” program on the HLP out now:
Day 1: Long 1.5-3hr (weight vested) hike
Day 2: Legs
Day 3: Heat (20min)/Cold (2-5min) x 3
Day 4: Cardio 30min (~Zone 3)
Day 5: Torso
Day 6: Cardio 20min HIIT (~Zone 4/5)
Day 7: Arms, calves, neck
It is designed to be a template to be modified according to specific needs but it does check off all the boxes of research supported thresholds for cardiovascular and resistance training for men and women. Details on sets, reps, rest etc. in the episode: hubermanlab.com/fitness-toolki…
Don’t start off using the weight vest. Just take a long walk or hike or a very slow jog. Add weight slowly. Don’t get hurt!
