Huberman Lab · How to Improve Your Memory & Cognitive Function at Any Age | Dr. Alan Castel · 13 Jul 2026 podcast

Or now that we know memory sort of works this way, maybe we can make this technology geared to help us in some meaningful way.

I mean, it's so interesting to look at cellular and then anterior cingulate and then super agers and then sense of purpose.

If you look at all those different levels.

And then what we look at in a Western culture too is very different than some cultures that age much better than Western cultures.

And maybe there's lessons to be learned there.

A lot of it is like you're saying goal setting and motivation, but the goal is not just to live forever.

It's to make the most of these moments and have this sense of purpose.

And a lot of older adults do want to have this connection to younger people or connection to a hobby or an interest.

And it's not as professionally driven as it is in kind of midlife.

And I think the super ages is really interesting because I've read about that and I've seen this and these are not people who said, I want to live forever and I'm going to.

That's not their goal.

And a lot of them are not people who are like, I went to the gym four times a week.

They built into their, it's the same with Blue Zones.

It's built into their daily life of they eat well because that's the food that they enjoy and that they can find.

They exercise not from going to the gym, but from,

having to walk uphill or on uneven surfaces.

So I think, I don't want to say it's an American focus on goals and motivation and biohacking and longevity, but if you can build this into your daily life, it's so much easier.

And then it just becomes, I saw my father bike to work every day.

In fact, he wouldn't even call it work because he didn't want to make it think like it was work.

And I don't know why.
