0:00Welcome to Huberman Lab Essentials, where we revisit past episodes for the most potent and actionable science-based tools for mental health, physical health, and performance.
0:11I'm Andrew Huberman, and I'm a professor of neurobiology and ophthalmology at Stanford School of Medicine.
0:17And now for my discussion with Dr.
0:19David Anderson.
0:20David, great to be here, and great to finally sit down and chat with you.
0:24Great to be here, too.

0:40The short answer to your question is that I see emotions as a type of internal state in the sense that arousal is also a type of internal state.
0:50Motivation is a type of internal state.
0:52Sleep is a type of internal state.
0:55They change the input to output transformation of the brain.
