Harnessing Vigorous All-Day Energy with a Simple Schedule

The Huberman Lab has recently released a dead-simple schedule for harnessing vigorous all-day energy. This plan includes no phone use for the first hour, hydrating with alkaline water, expressing gratitude for the past and future, seeking sunlight and movement early in the day, heat/cold exposure in the morning, and 20 minutes of breathwork and meditation twice daily. The key to this plan is functional compartmentalization – avoiding mixing states of mind across different steps. The schedule itself consists of five simple steps: 1) Sunlight & Movement; 2) Task Completion; 3) Thoughtful Reflection; 4) Repeat Steps 1-3; 5) Sleep. In addition to following this schedule, it’s important to nourish your body with healthy food and drink, hydrate regularly throughout the day, relate positively with others, and avoid energy sinks such as stress or fatigue. This schedule provides an easy way to get more out of each day by optimizing your energy levels throughout the day. By following these simple steps you can maximize your productivity while still taking care of yourself mentally and physically.
