Huberman Lab · How to Expand Your Consciousness | Dr. Christof Koch · 15 Sep 2025 podcast

What does it mean for my behavior?

What does it mean for other people's behavior?

Yeah, so you can call it psychedelic.

This is called the integration period.

So I would submit you had a transformative experience.

You had what philosophers call direct acquaintance now with some form of racism, right?

Subtle racism, right, in this VR environment.

And now you're doing the explicit work of reformulating everything.

You're changing literally your Bayesian priors.

So I imagine you're top-down, you know, from, let's say, prefrontal cortex back into whatever, you know, theory of mind, for instance, areas, right?

You are changing your priors.

So I think there are two ways to achieve transformative effect.

One is the slow one by educating yourself by reading books, by watching movies.

But as you said, very often it doesn't really bite until you have a direct experience.

You direct have acquaintance with this.

Then suddenly you say, now I get it.

And this is the character of any transformative experiences, including mystical experiences.

I mean, it's just up here, right?

200 miles or 300 miles up the coast.

Yeah, he was a great friend.
