-
These days we hear a lot about protocols. Morning routines, and other things to do to prepare for better sleep, get exercise, etc. Sometimes the routine aspect ca. come across as robotic or overly regimented.
-
**But the whole purpose of protocols is to allow you to lean into life with more vigor and presence and that include includes your relationships: family, friends, romantic, relationships, etc.

My guest on the Huberman Lab podcast out now is and we discuss the protocols follow us from waking until bedtime to maximize his relationships with his family and coworkers and mental health and physical health. They are straightforward, clearly explained tools that anyone can apply.
-
And of course, these are impossible to separate completely. One aspect of life always affect affects the other. It’s important to note, however, that being very regimented about how you return home at the end of the day or show up to a social gathering is about presence, not control. It’s about eliminating the things that don’t belong there so that the people in your life can feel more at ease, more spontaneous and so those relationships can grow.
