Today we're discussing the science of morning light exposure. Getting 5-10 minutes of direct sunlight within an hour of waking can dramatically improve your cortisol rhythm and enhance alertness. This simple protocol has powerful effects on your circadian system.

What's fascinating about exercise is how it affects our neurotransmitters. When we engage in physical activity, we see increases in dopamine, norepinephrine, and BDNF - brain-derived neurotrophic factor - which essentially helps our neurons grow and make new connections.

Hello everyone, I'm Dr. Andrew Huberman, professor of neurobiology and ophthalmology at Stanford School of Medicine. Today, I want to talk to you about something we all chase—but often misunderstand: Most people think motivation is a feeling. Something you wait for. But motivation is not something that simply arrives. It is something that is created. And more importantly—it is something that is sustained through very specific neurological processes that you can control.

Let's talk about how light exposure affects your circadian rhythm, right? When morning sunlight hits your retina, it triggers a cascade of neural signals that regulate cortisol release. This mechanism is absolutely crucial for maintaining proper sleep-wake cycles and overall cognitive performance throughout the day.

Successful people think differently about time. Poor people trade their time for money, that's their philosophy. Rich people make their time generate money through investments and systems. It's not about working harder, it's about working smarter. That's the philosophy of the wealthy.

Today on Huberman Lab Essentials, we're exploring the science of stress response and cortisol regulation. As a neuroscientist, I'll explain how your brain processes acute stress, and provide evidence-based tools to optimize your physiological response to challenging situations.

When we examine the effects of bright light exposure in the morning, it turns out that this triggers a cascade of neural events in the suprachiasmatic nucleus, which then signals to your entire body that it's time to be alert and active.

Now, imagine this truth: you are the creator of your world. Everything you see, everything you experience, was first born in your imagination. Don't ask how it will happen, simply know that your consciousness is the only reality. Feel it real, and it must externalize.
