Andrew Huberman: The #1 Reason Why Faith...

Lewis Howes
About this episode

The world's most respected neuroscientist just admitted something LIVE at Summit of Greatness that shocked everyone: prayer saved his mental health. After decades of relying purely on science, Andrew Huberman discovered that faith-based practices don't just feel good—they literally restructure your brain for better health, clearer thinking, and deeper peace. But here's what makes this conversation revolutionary: he doesn't stop at spirituality. Huberman reveals the exact protocols he uses to hack his nervous system, from morning cortisol optimization to evening wind-down routines that guarantee better sleep. He exposes cynicism as the ultimate brain killer and shows you how curiosity becomes your superpower for lifelong learning. You'll walk away with a complete system for transforming your mind, backed by both cutting-edge science and ancient wisdom.
