Published: June 20, 2022, 8 a.m.

b'My guest is Ido Portal, the world\\u2019s foremost expert on human movement. Ido has spent a lifetime studying, combining and evolving elements from an enormous range of martial arts, dance genres, athletic endeavors, and science, to develop a unified theory and practice of movement called \\u201cThe Ido Portal Method.\\u201d Here we discuss all things movement, including the role of the nervous system, reflexive versus deliberate movement patterns, and the link between emotions and awareness in movement. We also discuss learning and neuroplasticity, the mind-body connection and how movement itself can be leveraged toward expanding other types of skills- cognitive, creative and otherwise. As one of the most sought out teachers of movement alive today, the knowledge Ido shares in this conversation can benefit everyone\\u2014children, adults, athletes, dancers, clinicians and trainers and the everyday person.\\nFor the full show notes, visit hubermanlab.com.\\nThank you to our sponsors\\nAG1 (Athletic Greens): https://athleticgreens.com/huberman\\nLMNT: https://drinklmnt.com/huberman\\nSupplements from Momentous\\nhttps://www.livemomentous.com/huberman\\nTimestamps\\n(00:00:00) Ido Portal, Movement & Movement Practice\\n(00:03:42) Sponsors: AG1, LMNT\\n(00:07:49) What is Movement?\\n(00:10:56) Movement & the Body-Mind Connection\\n(00:14:47) Entry Points to Movement\\n(00:18:08) Early Education in Movement: Awareness, Play & Examination\\n(00:21:19) Stillness, Movement & the Environment, Playfulness\\n(00:31:34) Unique Postures, Types of Movement, Contents vs. Containers\\n(00:40:50) Discomfort: Marker of Movement, Failures & Learning\\n(00:47:05) Movement Diversity, Squat Challenge, Injury, Movement Evolution\\n(00:56:36) Animal & Human Movements, Gain & Change\\n(01:02:04) Core Movement, Emotion & Memory, Spinal Waves, Evolution\\n(01:12:39) Song, Dance & Complex Language, Movement as Language, Consilience\\n(01:21:39) Movement Culture, Community, Collective Knowledge, Wild & Wise\\n(01:26:36) Potential for Movement, \\u201cHumming\\u201d\\n(01:32:18) Instructiveness vs Permissiveness, Degrees of Freedom\\n(01:35:50) Variety, Diversity & Virtuosity\\n(01:38:06) Vision & Movement, Focus & Awareness, Panoramic Awareness\\n(01:48:28) Hearing & Movement\\n(01:52:43) Walking Gaits\\n(01:56:55) Playful Variability & Evolution, Improvisation & Openness\\n(02:03:05) Reactivity & Personal Space, Touch & Proximity to Others, Play & Discomfort\\n(02:18:13) Visualization & Experience, Feedback\\n(02:20:14) Linear Movement & Movement Investigation, Examination\\n(02:31:45) Zero-Cost Support, YouTube Feedback, Spotify & Apple Reviews, Sponsors, Momentous Supplements, Instagram, Twitter, Neural Network Newsletter\\nTitle Card Photo Credit: Mike Blabac\\nDisclaimer'
