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.Read the full show notes for this episode at hubermanlab.com.Thank you to our sponsorsAG1: https://athleticgreens.com/hubermanLMNT: https://drinklmnt.com/hubermanlabWaking Up: https://www.wakingup.com/hubermanTimestamps00:00:00 Introduction  00:00:30 Sponsors: AG1, LMNT & Waking Up  00:03:00 The Dream Mask  00:06:00 Cycling Sleep  00:08:10 Chemical Cocktails of Sleep  00:13:00 Motor Learning  00:16:30 High Performance with Less Sleep  00:17:45 Rapid Eye Movement Sleep  00:20:30 Paralysis & Hallucinations  00:23:35 Nightmares  00:24:45 When REM & Waking Collide  00:25:00 Sleeping While Awake  00:26:45 Alien Abductions  00:29:00 Irritability  00:30:00 Sleep to Delete  00:32:25 Creating Meaning  00:34:10 Adults Acting Like Children  00:36:20 Trauma & REM  00:37:15 EMDR  00:39:10 Demo  00:44:25 Ketamine / PCP  00:45:45 Soup, Explosions, & NMDA  00:48:55 Self Therapy  00:50:30 Note About Hormones  00:51:40 Measuring REM / SWS  00:53:15 Sleep Consistency  00:56:00 Bed Wetting  00:58:00 Serotonin  00:59:00 Increasing SWS  00:59:50 Lucidity  01:02:15 Booze / Weed  01:03:50 Scripting Dreams  01:04:35 Theory of Mind  01:07:55 Synthesis  01:10:00 Intermittent Sleep Deprivation  01:11:10 Snoring Disclaimer  01:11:40 New Topic  01:15:50 Corrections  01:17:25 Closing Remarks  Disclaimer & Disclosures Learn more about your ad choices.
