Huberman Lab · Tools to Bolster Your Mental Health & Confidence | Dr. Paul Conti · 4 May 2026 podcast

And it's telling me there is emotion in something from that time that I have not worked through.

Was I aware of that?

Am I kind of aware of it, but I'm pushing it down under the surface?

If I'm having strong emotions where I'm lost in the past while in the present, it's a marker of something.

And very often we get afraid of that.

We turn away from it.

We're worried that it's telling us we're not healthy or we're worried we're going to go crazy.

These are the things that people say when this happens.

For us to know like, well, that is not what's happening.

This is normal and human.

This is what will happen.

These emotion systems that pay very strong attention to negative things, to negative emotions, fear and loss and terror and despair inside of us, they don't know the clock or the calendar.

So they're going to bring to our present things from our past that are then markers of saying, go dig there, because that is not just in the past.

Emotionally, it is still in your present.

Bringing compassionate curiosity to ourselves where we just look at our past and we look at it without sort of having a dog in the fight, so to speak, where like, I don't have to see it a certain way, right?

I don't have to look at this.

And sometimes people will say, they have to make it less bad than it was because they feel otherwise they won't be okay if they see all that was bad in it.

Others might feel they have to look at the worst of it because they're trying to anchor to things in their life now that they're not happy with and why that might be.

So what it ends up doing is it brings so much emotion into it that we can't look.

in a way that has equanimity, right?
