"Stress has a real impact on your mental and cognitive processes. It limits your field of view, shrinks space (and time), and makes you feel agitated. Certainly, there has to be a way to deal with it, right? In this video, Dr. Andrew Huberman explains the tangible effects of stress on the body and practical strategies to limit them."

The Knowledge Project, "The Science of Small Change"

"Leading neuroscientist and Stanford University School of Medicine professor Dr. Andrew Huberman goes in-depth on how small behaviors can make a huge impact on your health. Dr. Huberman offers essential insights into how light affects your sleep and your energy levels, which supplements actually work, tips to control bad impulses, exercises to slow the aging process, and so much more.

Dr. Huberman has made numerous significant contributions to the fields of brain development, brain function and neural plasticity, which is the ability of our nervous system to rewire and learn new behaviors, skills and cognitive functioning. Huberman is a McKnight Foundation and Pew Foundation Fellow and was awarded the Cogan Award in 2017, given to the scientist making the most significant discoveries in the study of vision. His lab’s most recent work focuses on the influence of vision and respiration on human performance and brain states, such as fear and courage."
