Morning Tools Temperature & Deliberate Cold Exposure & Exercise
Dr. Huberman discusses levers and tools to help you feel more awake after waking up. You should use not only leverage light but also temperature; increase body temperature by going into cold water for 1-3 minutes. It will wake you up because the body releases epinephrine and adrenaline, increasing core body temperature.

Temperature Minimum & Jet Lag, Shift Work & Red Lights
Jet lag is something we all experience. Huberman introduces a concept called "temperature minimum." 2 hours before your typical wake-up time, your body will be at its lowest temperature. If you wake up 2-3 hours before your temperature minimum and do activities as you would typically, you will want to go to sleep and wake up later the next day. The opposite is true. This is a potent tool for shifting your sleep schedule.

THC, the Psychoactive Ingredient in Cannabis, Reduces Sleep Onset But Blocks REM Sleep
Dr. Huberman and Dr. Walker discuss the effect of CBD and THC on sleep architecture. CBD shortens sleep onset latency, but THC blocks rem sleep. When you use THC, you are starved rem sleep, and when you use too much THC, you develop a dependency on it.

Non Sleep Deep Rest (NSDR) Accelerates Neural Plasticity & Aids Learning
[Non-sleep deep rest](https://crescent.co/blog/what-is-non-sleep-deep-rest) is not mediation. Huberman suggests a 20, 30-minute shallow nap, putting feet up and laying down, or zoning out can accelerate neural plasticity. We know neural plasticity is triggered during the activity but takes place away from the activity. Similar to the gym, blood rushes to the muscle during training, but hypertrophy happens after

Yoga Nidra: A Tool for Combating Sleep Deprivation
Dr. Huberman discusses a tool that improves focus if you are sleep deprived. Yoga Nidra, or nonsleep deep rest (NSDR), is the process of lying down for about 10-30 minutes, listening to a script, and deep relaxation. This process is very therapeutic as studies have shown that it restores dopamine levels in the basal ganglia. Huberman then goes into how he does NSDR and the benefits of NSDR as it pertains to sleep. Learn more about [NSDR](https://crescent.co/blog/what-is-non-sleep-deep-rest)

Evolutionary reasons to sleep
Dr. Walker and Dr. Attia go into evolutionary reasons for sleep. During sleep, we are not mating or eating and are prone to predation, so there must be a reason for sleep.

Sleep Deprivation Dangers: Elevated Amyloid-Beta & Increased Death Risk
Even one night of sleep deprivation increases amyloid beta production by 5%. Accumulation of amyloid beta will lead to Alzheimer's disease. If you restrict rats from sleep, they get diabetes in two weeks. According to a study in 2010, people with minor sleep increased their mortality rate by 30%.

The Growing Importance of Sleep
Kevin Rose and James Beshara talk about the importance of sleep. They bring in the news of WHO classifying lack of sleep as a carcinogen. Less than 8 hours of sleep decreases your lifespan and leads to cancer, dementia, and other diseases. It is crazy how if people only slept for 3 hours, their iq would drop by 12 points on average.
