Microdosing - Paul Austin - Psychedelics Feb 07, 2023

Show notes

There’s a big difference between a microdose and “journey dose” and today founder of Third Wave, Paul Austin, is here to help us get to the bottom of it. Can you define microdosing? With microdosing psychedelics now a buzzworthy topic of conversation among everyone from high achieving CEOs to stay-at-home parents, we need to properly understand such landscapes if we want to safely and effectively use these tools to upgrade the mind/brain interface.

Jamie Wheal With Dr. Tara Isabella Burton - Meaning-Making Jan 24, 2023

Show notes

Our society is facing a crisis of meaning. That is the foundational message of our latest episode with Dr. Tara Isabella Burton. You may have heard of the term “nones”- people listing no religious affiliation in surveys. Dr. Burton, theologian, author and journalist, is less interested in what this group of people are leaving behind (institutional religion) than in how they are finding or making their own meaning. But what happens when we seek stabilizing, emotionally satisfying stories that give us a cosmic location and identity without accountability to a higher purpose? Could it be that if we’re seeking self-actualization and the only arbiter is our own thoughts, feelings, and desires that the result is lack of meaning and inadvertently the development of narcissistic traits? It’s a powerful question. Get in touch. Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/neurohacker/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/neurohackercollective Email: support@neurohacker.com

Fear - Andrew Huberman, Ph.D. - Neuroscience Jan 17, 2023

Show notes

We frequently receive requests to have Dr. Andrew Huberman on the podcast. Truth is, we have quite a few in our archives, but many of the conversations occurred early in the birth of our company, resulting in the content being missed by the amazing community members now following us. To each and everyone of you: this episode is for you. Transparency: this is an encore episode so some of the research Dr. Huberman discusses, has been refined by his cutting-edge lab since the original recording. That being said, the conversation is too powerful to not reshare with you. Often we hear Dr. Huberman doing the interviewing on his show, Huberman Lab Podcast. Hear what happens when Daniel asks the questions.

Human Development - Dr. Terri O’Fallon - Integral Theory Jan 03, 2023

Show notes

As human beings we regularly change—we develop. Experiences bring new perspectives and change who we experience ourselves to be. Our relationship with others and our life context evolves and matures. But these growth spurts often result in a developmental confusion—a sense of bewilderment about our identity or purpose. Join us as we unpack human development with Dr. Terri O’Fallon, founder of STAGES, an integrally based model that defines 12 stages in the evolution of human consciousness and meaning-making wisdom.

Jamie Wheal With Dr. Daniel Lieberman - Consciousness Dec 27, 2022

Show notes

Today, psychiatrist Daniel Z. Lieberman, coauthor of The Molecule of More, and author of his latest book Spellbound leads us down a new path: one where we learn how to recognize the influences of the unconscious, making it an ally in helping us become the people we were meant to be. The unconscious mind is still very much an enigma, but it influences our lives in ways we can only begin to imagine. Much of what we experience, our moods, what we like and dislike—most of who we are originates with the unconscious. But it’s not always working in our favor. Get in touch.

Neurofeedback - Dr. Andrew Hill - Neuroscience Nov 29, 2022

Show notes

This episode is all about the brain, specifically how to optimize cognitive performance and behaviors via neurofeedback. Research shows our brains are highly malleable and neurofeedback is a cutting edge tool to help us safely train broad regulatory actions associated with mood, attention, self-regulation and self-control, sleep, energy, stress, anxiety, and much, much more.

But how exactly does neurofeedback work? And for those with advanced knowledge in the field, can we objectively measure executive function? Dr. Andrew Hill, a previous guest on this podcast who holds a Ph.D. in cognitive neuroscience, helps us answer those questions. We break down the brain’s “languages” (think delta, theta, alpha beta brainwaves) in an easy to understand format while satisfying questions we all want answers to, such as:

The difference between neurofeedback and biofeedback

Why normal readings during brain mappings are overrated

What neurofeedback reveals about the brain post COVID

Combining chemicals that boost brain plasticity with neurofeedback

What brain maps tell us about cannabis and the brain

If you love the brain like we do, this episode is for you. Listen in now.

HomeGrown Humans - Wednesday Martin, Ph.D. - Sexuality - Hosted by Jamie Wheal Nov 15, 2022

Show notes

In our latest episode, Jamie Wheal and Dr. Wednesday Martin are intent on taking us out of our comfort zones, changing the way we think about women and sex forever. Dr. Martin presents the case that “junk science” and regressive cultural narratives have shaped our beliefs about female infidelity for centuries and that female sexual autonomy is the most meaningful metric of gender equality.

Deep Sleep - Dr. Dan Pardi - Neuroscience Nov 08, 2022

Show notes

If there was ever an ultimate sleep episode, this is it.

Dan Pardi, sleep researcher at Stanford and Leiden University and CEO of humanOS.me, an application designed to promote health mastery, is here to unpack the exact science of deep sleep. And even better, how to get more of it.

We discuss sleep stages, sleep physiology, the major causes of sleep loss in our society (think high reward activities and mistimed lighting environments) and the consequences of sleep loss, including decreased purging of toxic substances from the brain and damage to neurons that signal to the brain to stay awake. We also cover:

The physiological benefits of slow wave sleep
How sleep impacts eating behaviors and weight gain
The optimal amount of sleep and the importance of sleep timing
How sleep regulates the immune system and effects cellular senescence
Effects of light on circadian rhythms
Science-backed ways to optimize your “master clock”
Dan’s favorite routines and products to biohack your sleep

If you’re looking to get the most from your sleep, this episode is for you. If you want even more after listening you’re in luck. This is part one of a two part series. Listen in now.
