  • In this episode, I review the science of habit formation and habit elimination and how the process of neuroplasticity (brain rewiring) underlies these processes.
    I describe two new systems for habit formation. The first system is grounded in the neuroscience of brain states and our ability to perform (and to avoid) certain tasks at different phases of the 24-hour day. The second system focuses on 21-day habit formation and consolidation.
    I also discuss "task bracketing" as an approach to enhancing habit formation and eliminating unwanted habits and the neural circuits that underlie task bracketing in the basal ganglia (a brain region for generating and stopping behaviors). I also review the science of dopamine rewards and how to apply that knowledge to shaping habits.
    The science and tools in this episode ought to be helpful for anyone looking to build better habits and eliminate unwanted habits for school, work, fitness, relationships, creative endeavors, and more-indeed for any person or situation where behavioral changes are needed.

    Congrats for 1 year, Dr. Andrew Huberman! Thanks as always.
    Sharing my lecture notes:
    Goal Based vs Identity Based
    Goal: targetted (losing weight), Identity: larger picture of yourself (as a fit person)
    "It takes 21 days to form habit."
    study (2010) - it may take 18 days-254 days to form habit.
    the habit was : taking a walk after dinner/meal.
    When is a habit considered formed : they do it 85% of the time, and takes not much mental effort to do it.
    Limbic Friction : activation energy to engage in a particular behavior.
    Too tired to do it, or too anxious / distracted to do it.
    Limbic Friction can be measured, and it will be a factor affecting how you can form habits.
    Linchpin Habits: easy to execute, and make other habits easier to execute.
    Can be used to access habits that are harder to execute.
    Linchpin habits are always things that we enjoy / like doing.
    Ask yourself, what habits you do everyday.
    Mapping your Habits; Habit Strength, Context-Dependence
    Habit Strength: Context-Dependence:
    (context-independence) if you do something regardless of where / what situation you're in, it's a very strong habit.
    How much limbic friction is required to do the habit? (how much do you have to force it)
    Will tell you if the habit is embedded deeply or shallowly in your nervous system.
    The goal is to reach: Automaticity
    Less mental/physical effort (less limbic friction)
    Tool 1 : Applying Procedural Memory Visualizations.
    Procedural Memory:
    Simple visualization exercise, think through each of the steps from start to finish of the habit gives more likelihood of performing the habit regularly through the days and weeks to come.
    This step-by-step visualization allows the limbic friction to come down.
    Hebbian Learning, NMDA receptors make it easier to turn on more neurons when stimulated.
    Just do the habit once or twice, then think through the steps (from start to finish), will make it easier to form/maintain a habit.
    Tool 2: Task Bracketing; Dorsolateral Striatum
    Basal Ganglia: Action execution, suppression. Go / No Go.
    Dorsolateral Striatum: Particular Structure that marks the start and end of habit, but not the habit per se. This affects the Context-Dependency of the habit.
    States of Mind, Not Scheduling Time Predicts Habit Strength
    If you are very specific about performing a habit on time, it isn't working in the long term habit formation.
    It's not time that affects the habit. Instead, it is the state your brain & body are in that affects your likelihood to perform the habit.
    Tool 3: Phase-Based Habit Plan
    24-hour day:
    Phase 1: 0-8 h after waking up
    Phase 2: 9-15h after waking up
    Phase 3: 16-24h after waking up
    Phase 1: 0-8h
    Alert and Focused State: Action and Focus oriented.
    Viewing Sunlight / Bright Artificial Light
    Exercise
    Cold Exposure / Shower
    Caffeine Ingestion
    Fasting
    Places the body in a state to more easily able to engage in activities that have lots of limbic friction.
    Place the most important and often difficult habits (high limbic friction) into this 0-8 h after waking up.
    Phase 2: 9-15h
    Highest Serotonin, Relaxed state of being.
    Limiting Light / Blue Light
    Seeing sunset light, but not too much light.
    Non-sleep Deep Rest, Meditation, Yoga Nidra, Selp-Hypnosis
    Heat and Sauna, Hot Baths/Hot Showers
    Alert, Present, Working, etc. But try to taper off your stress level.
    Take on habits that you're already doing that require very little limbic friction.
    Journaling, Brainstorming.
    Skills you've known, a bit challenging, but less resistance to do (little limbic friction).
    Habits you already enjoy. Less energy to override / overcome limbic friction.
    If you exercise, try to do NSDR afterwards, to allow better rest and recovery.
    Phase 3: 16-24h
    State of Mind/Body to allow Neuroplasticity of the day
    Very low to no light.
    Keeping room temperature low.
    Well-fed enough so you're not hungry; not eating.
    What if you wake up?
    Try to use very little light; light may make it harder falling back to sleep.
    Try to fall back to sleep.
    This phase will allow your brain to form and maintain these habits through neuroplasticity (reframing of the brain cells).
    It's not just the neural circuits engaged by the task itself, but also before and after, gets consolidated.
    During the sleep neuroplasticity, you'll find the habits easier to do the next days.
    Habit Flexibility
    When the habit becomes reflexive, try to play around when you are doing the habit.
    By being able to do the habit any time, means the habit is becoming Context-Independence. (it becomes a stronger habit)
    Recipe: is maintained until you know how to cook something. Afterwards, the information is passed off to a different area.
    The whole habit step-by-step process eventually becomes reflexive, and no longer needed to be bracketed.
    How much limbic friction? How much context-dependence? (this is how strong the habit is)
    Should We Reward Ourselves? How? When? When NOT to.
    Notion of Reward Prediction Error to improve learning and habits-formation.
    If you expect a reward and reward comes, that's great.
    However, if something positive happens unexpectedly, dopamine reward is even better.
    But if you expect a reward and it doesn't come, that's going to be dangerous (dopamine drop).
    Tool 4: “Dopamine Spotlighting” & Task Bracketing
    It's very useful to not just think about the procedural execution, but also the events that preceeds and follow the habit.
    It casts a spotlight to which dopamine can be associated with.
    Lean into the habit. Positively anticipate the onset and offset of the habit. Start rewarding task-bracketing instead of rewarding the execution only.
    Feel good about putting the habit into phase 1, and how it is affecting the events before and after the habit.
    (Association with broader scale of time)
    Knowing the positive events that happens afterwards, will help form the habit.
    Thinking of the events that lead to the habit, will also help form the habit.
    Tool 5: The 21-Day Habit Installation & Testing System
    Rooted in the Biology-Psychology Literatures,
    System: build in habits and test the habit.
    21 days:
    1. write 6 things you would like to do everyday.
    2. what phase of the day they will fall into.
    3. you'll only complete 4-5 of those everyday.
    Some things shouldn't be done everyday (to shuffle out)
    4. if you miss a day, there's no punishment.
    Don't do habit-slip-compensation, just get back to it normally.
    You need to decide what you can do consistently, 5-6 days a week.
    5. Chunking these 21 days into 2 days bin, reset. (just look at 2 days)
    After 21 days, stop doing these, and go to autopilot.
    How many of them are you naturally doing afterwards?
    This is important to know who you are, and how capable you are for these habits.
    To know how well you've embedded these habits.
    Reasonable and Realistic.
    Breaking Habits: Long-Term (Synaptic) Depression
    Look at the Mirror Image
    NMDA Receptors: if sets of neurons are active, it is recruiting more neurons.
    Breaking synapses for habits that you don't want to do (or you want to break)
    Long-Term (Synaptic) Depression (nothing to do with Psychological Depression):
    Weaken the connection between neuron A and neuron B
    How to desynchronize these neurons?
    Habit: picking up phone in the middle of work session.
    Reflexive habit of taking up your phone.
    Most people aren't aware of the immediate steps involved.
    Realize/Measure the fact that you did the behavior, this may help with the breaking of the habit.
    Notifications Don’t Work
    Reminders work in the short term, but not in the long term.
    Penalties are really effective to break habits.
    Tool 6: Break Bad Habits with Post-Bad-Habit “Positive Cargo”
    Take the period following the bad habit execution,
    you don't have to capture the sequence of events that led to the event, but upon realizing a bad habit you can engage in a replacement behavior immediately afterwards.
    It takes advantage of the recently activated neurons and recruit different neurons into the habit.
    It helps to plug in a different continuation habit.
    It creates a double habit that starts with bad habit, and ends with good habit, but eventually turned into an adaptive habit.
    You start to recruit other neurons that can dismantle the sequence fired for the bad behavior.
    It creates a temporal mismatch, and makes bad habit more apparent to you.
    Bad habit is like a closed-loop (self-repeating), but incorporate the good habit and you can rewrite it in the brain as an open-loop.
    You want the good behavior to be easy to execute.

      So the least corrupt countries who held their citizens hostage for the shortest amount of time had the lowest Boogey Virus rates. Of course.... because people don’t get sick from germs, they get sick from being scared and upset about something that happened in their lives. Enter the worldwide FEAR CAMPAIGN. The Germ Theory was never actually proven to be 100% accurate, yet the trillion dollar medical industry is entirely based on that theory. What's the CAUSE of death in people with this "virus"? Does their brain explode? Does their heart stop beating? The CAUSE of death is still pneumonia.
      Pneumonia is not something you can "catch". It's a biological result of being "scared to death" of something which is exactly what the media has done to people dumb enough to watch them. You've heard the term "Worried sick". That's because your BRAIN causes you to become sick due to the stress it is perceiving! Why do you think young kids aren't getting the Boogey Virus? Because they aren't sitting in front of the news being scared to death because they're too young to understand a Fear Campaign. These pathetic "experts" just make shit it up to explain their narrative as they go. First they tell you kids bring home every illness from school because they're not "exposed" to enough things, then they say somehow they're immune to a Boogey Virus? Does anyone have common sense?! You don't show the symptoms of "disease" until you stop being panicked and afraid. These symptoms usually show up 1-2 weeks after you've relaxed and resolved the upsetting event.
      There's no such thing that some diseases you can "catch", but not all. It's not that complex! If you can't "catch" cancer, diabetes, MS, arthritis, etc., from other people, then you can't "catch" colds, flu and Boogey Viruses. So governments around the world are CAUSING fear frights in everyone based on an unproven THEORY by one man, Louis Pastaur, who redacted his claim of the germ theory on his death bed, yet no one listened. So of course, when everyone is allowed to escape the hostage situation the governments have put their people into, and they start relaxing about the Boogey Virus, that's not in any way transmissible, they will begin their healing phase (get sick), and believe they then have it, and more panic will ensue as well as martial law. The longer people allow this government to hold them hostage in their homes, the more severe the "sickness" will be. Can anyone put 2 and 2 together to figure out what I'm saying?? Western Medicine is pure fraud, and people's lives are destroyed because of it. There's no critical thinking anymore. People think they're educated because they've memorized the lies they've been told for 100 years.

    1:15:55 habit execution (effort to engage in a particular habit)
    1 - pick habit u wanna form
    2 - what are the steps involved in executing that habit
    3 - what are the sequence of events that need to immediately precede the habit, so like 10-15 min before the habit
    4 - what are the events and/or feelings that will happen immediately after the habit, so like 10-15 min after the habit
    in doing this, (positively associating with the idea that you're going to complete this entire sequence), you will engage reward prediction error in the proper way that the dopamine surge can lend itself towards motivation.

    Limbic friction is an incredibly useful idea, especially when combined with the phase-based habit plan you described. Lately I’ve been trying to get back into weightlifting, but have found it difficult to reestablish the habit, probably because I’ve been doing it after work, around 4-5pm. That’s phase 2 (almost 3) for me, so it’s no wonder that I’m experiencing so much limbic friction! I’m going to try moving it up further in the day and see what happens.

      So the least corrupt countries who held their citizens hostage for the shortest amount of time had the lowest Boogey Virus rates. Of course.... because people don’t get sick from germs, they get sick from being scared and upset about something that happened in their lives. Enter the worldwide FEAR CAMPAIGN. The Germ Theory was never actually proven to be 100% accurate, yet the trillion dollar medical industry is entirely based on that theory. What's the CAUSE of death in people with this "virus"? Does their brain explode? Does their heart stop beating? The CAUSE of death is still pneumonia.
      Pneumonia is not something you can "catch". It's a biological result of being "scared to death" of something which is exactly what the media has done to people dumb enough to watch them. You've heard the term "Worried sick". That's because your BRAIN causes you to become sick due to the stress it is perceiving! Why do you think young kids aren't getting the Boogey Virus? Because they aren't sitting in front of the news being scared to death because they're too young to understand a Fear Campaign. These pathetic "experts" just make shit it up to explain their narrative as they go. First they tell you kids bring home every illness from school because they're not "exposed" to enough things, then they say somehow they're immune to a Boogey Virus? Does anyone have common sense?! You don't show the symptoms of "disease" until you stop being panicked and afraid. These symptoms usually show up 1-2 weeks after you've relaxed and resolved the upsetting event.
      There's no such thing that some diseases you can "catch", but not all. It's not that complex! If you can't "catch" cancer, diabetes, MS, arthritis, etc., from other people, then you can't "catch" colds, flu and Boogey Viruses. So governments around the world are CAUSING fear frights in everyone based on an unproven THEORY by one man, Louis Pastaur, who redacted his claim of the germ theory on his death bed, yet no one listened. So of course, when everyone is allowed to escape the hostage situation the governments have put their people into, and they start relaxing about the Boogey Virus, that's not in any way transmissible, they will begin their healing phase (get sick), and believe they then have it, and more panic will ensue as well as martial law. The longer people allow this government to hold them hostage in their homes, the more severe the "sickness" will be. Can anyone put 2 and 2 together to figure out what I'm saying?? Western Medicine is pure fraud, and people's lives are destroyed because of it. There's no critical thinking anymore. People think they're educated because they've memorized the lies they've been told for 100 years.

    I have tried checklists, and time blocks... But batching tasks based on limbic friction and alternating tasks in the time slot is brilliant.

    The one thing I do is meditation. I wake around 4am and go directly into my practice for approximately 1 1/2 to 2 hours… it’s kept me sane. The reason for saying this is, you have asked your audience if there is anyone we would like to see on your program. Since I’m new and have not navigated your channel please excuse me if this person has been on your program.

    Summary:
    Creating habits:
    1-Procedural memory: think about the habit and the specific sequence. 4- Advanced: Also think about the reward you will get and how it will make you feel afterwards.
    2-Task bracketing after waking up, from 0 to 8 hours, 8-16, and 16-24.
    3- 21-day protocol: 6 habits, of which 4 or 5 are expected to be done, then 21 more days to evaluate if you did the 6, only with the 6 well done move forward with more habits.
    Breaking habits
    5- When you have a bad habit, replace it immediately with a good one when you finish.

    Goal based vs Identity based habits-Goal based habits mean where you focus on specific goal for example to loose a specific KG weight like 10 kg 15 kg and identity based habits is habit make to achieve in something long term for example to become fit. Here we can say Identity Based Habits= Goal based habits + Goal based habits.
    Limbic Fiction- Activation energy within us to form new habit.
    Linchpin Habits: It is a habit which helps in executing other habits.Linchpin habit is nothing but those habits which we like to do.For example if we love to maintain good physique by doing exercises then automatically we will try to make our decisions on our eating habits,healthy eating,good sleep,hydration,etc. In this way Linchpin habits helps in execution of another habits.
    in this video he has explained which habits are easy to perform,hard to perform and how to break habits.
    Mapping Habits-Write down every habit you do on daily basis for example brushing your teeth,breakfast,waking up time,sleeping time,etc.We are habitual organism, until and unless we interven in our habits they tend to carry out same way as it formed.

    I have started at the 05.04.2023 my habit challenge. My new habits are:
    1. Attention Training (>=12min by audio)
    2. Space Time Meditation (>=5 minutes by audio)
    3. NSDR (10 minutes by audio)
    4. Sedona Method releasing method (>=15min by myself)
    5. Approach 1-10 women per day
    6. Learn Spanish (3x10min active + >8h passive)
    7. Get out of bed immediately (3 minutes tolerance) after the bell
    All habits I want to do for at least 4-5x per week. Number 1. will be probably the easiest thing and number 7 the most difficult for me.
    We will see. I will update here regularly. All the best :)

      I am still doing the habits 1-6. The positive side of Nr7 is that I stay maybe only 15-60 minutes in bed after the bell. In the past it was 60-120 minutes, cause I was sleeping again.
      I will see how it will develop in the next weeks.

    Personal notes:
    -To implement new habits and see which ones stick. For 21 days choose 6 selected habits that you want to do everyday. However, try to only do 4-5, you don’t need all 6. If you miss some, do not try to compensate the next day or feel bad, just start over. Add or remove more habits at the end of 21 days. Mix this with the separating day into 3 parts (waking-afternoon-declining)
    - For breaking a bad habit, use the depression method. This is immediately completing a goof habit right after participating in a bad one. Realize the mistake and proceed to the positive habit
    - Cacao butter and coconut oil mixed make a hell of a sunscreen/tanner

    This is still my favorite podcast after 5 years. Someone told me a good way to quit smoking was to practice putting the cigarette to your lips and then practice putting it away. All the while telling yourself you don't even need a cigarette. That makes a lot of sense now after hearing this. And I did quit successfully. A lot of times people tell themselves they can't quit, they can't change but coming with an attitude that it's really no big deal and I have the tools to change, Make changing habits more manageable. It's a matter of staying positive and not condemning yourself knowing you are bigger and more than your habits.
    Thank you for your hard work Dr Huberman.
    "Closed loop", "Open loop" priceless information and a a nearly perfect delivery so that a layman, like myself could understand it.

  • @philosopherserfs2411
    @philosopherserfs2411 Před 2 lety +1

    Hey everyone! Dr Huberman thanks for these podcasts. I've been watching for months and have really transformed by applying some of them. One thing I have improvised myself concerns the cold exposure for increasing skill learning. As a recap what I understood was that if there is an adrenaline spike, everything that preceded that experience will be elevated in importance, due to it being likely helpful for survival. Then we leverage this by taking a cold bath after a learning bout. I have taken this to the extreme by practising drum rudiments with a metronome sitting on the edge of the bath, just faster than I can, and then plunging myself into the cold, getting out, finding I can keep up with the metronome due to the adrenaline, speeding the metronome up a bit, losing control, going back in the bath. Doing this whole cycle three times. I have noticed much faster progress over the weeks.
    Anyway I recently had the idea to form some new habits, and it occurred to me to try engaging in the new habit -which I have tried to form and failed before- and then taking the cold bath immediately afterwards. It has been ten days or so and the habit is still here. This is the longest I have managed with this particular habit. I wonder if you could share your thoughts on whether this is a sound combination of the principles you have been outlining? Thanks again!

  • @Paulina-sh2ov

    I felt in love with this idea of 6 new habits everyday. So I started it and instantly noticed that I find quite easy to do 4 or even 5 of them, because I know I have permission to leave 1-2 behind. This no pressure attitude really motivates and leaves person with the feeling of accomplishment.
    Btw. I tried in a past to focus on one of these habits individually and I was often failing, feeling bad and quitting eventually.
    I am curious what results this experiment is going to bring but I already have a feeling that it is just genius!
    Thank you Andrew, I appreciate your work so much ❤️
