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.Thank you to our sponsors:Helix Sleep - http://helixsleep.com/huberman Athletic Greens - http://athleticgreens.com/huberman Supplements from Thorne:http://www.thorne.com/u/huberman Timestamps below.00:00 Introduction 03:00 The Dream Mask 06:00 Cycling Sleep 08:10 Chemical Cocktails of Sleep 13:00 Motor Learning 16:30 High Performance with Less Sleep 17:45 Rapid Eye Movement Sleep 20:30 Paralysis & Hallucinations 23:35 Nightmares 24:45 When REM & Waking Collide 25:00 Sleeping While Awake 26:45 Alien Abductions 29:00 Irritability 30:00 Sleep to Delete 32:25 Creating Meaning 34:10 Adults Acting Like Children 36:20 Trauma & REM 37:15 EMDR 39:10 Demo 44:25 Ketamine / PCP 45:45 Soup, Explosions, & NMDA 48:55 Self Therapy 50:30 Note About Hormones 51:40 Measuring REM / SWS 53:15 Sleep Consistency 56:00 Bed Wetting 58:00 Serotonin 59:00 Increasing SWS 59:50 Lucidity 1:02:15 Booze / Weed 1:03:50 Scripting Dreams 1:04:35 Theory of Mind 1:07:55 Synthesis 1:10:00 Intermittent Sleep Deprivation 1:11:10 Snoring Disclaimer 1:11:40 New Topic 1:15:50 Corrections 1:17:25 Closing Remarks As always, thank you for your interest in science!Please note that The Huberman Lab Podcast is distinct from Dr. Huberman's teaching and research roles at Stanford University School of Medicine.
