Each of these protocols rests on a solid foundation of quality peer reviewed science. When performed regularly they provide an outsized positive effect on mood, sleep, metabolism and focus.

Ideally the cold exposure is done early in the day but any time is better than not at all. You can get the cold exposure out of water but heat transfer is far greater in water so that is preferred. How cold? “I really want to get out but I can stay in safely” is a good rule to follow.

Never look at any light so bright that it’s painful to look at and of course blinking is OK. Wearing corrective lenses or contacts is fine even if they have UV protection. Don’t wear sunglasses for #1.

Try adding one or all of these protocols to your daily schedule and observe what happens.

I discuss the science behind these protocols and others on the Huberman Lab Podcast. It can be found on YouTube Apple or Spotify or simply by going to hubermanlab.com All episodes are time-stamped for topic so you can navigate easily to the items of interest to you.
