153: Dr. Andrew Hill on Neurofeedback Training, Supporting Brain Health, and How to Reset Your Circadian Rhythm
This episode I'm chatting with Dr. Andrew Hill, who is one of the top peak performance coaches in the country. He holds a Ph.D. in Cognitive Neuroscience from UCLA's Department of Psychology and continues to do research on attention and cognitive performance. Dr. Hill is the founder of Peak Brain Institute, host of the Head First Podcast with Dr. Hill, and lectures at UCLA, teaching courses in psychology, neuroscience, and gerontology.
In this episode, Dr. Hill goes over Christina's brain mapping results and discusses the ADHD brain, the effect of sleep deprivation on the brain, and how the brain map can reveal mood and cognition irregularities. Dr. Hill talks about how to optimize your circadian rhythm, how screen use affects the brain, and the best ways to incorporate fasting into your routine. He shares more about the benefits of waking up early, nutrition for brain health, how coffee affects the brain, and what to do if you get a brain injury. He also explains what neurofeedback training is, what conditions it can benefit, why it's not talked about as much as other methods of healing, and more.
