Well, this sounds promising: ONE 17 minute interroception session can help with attending, and can help arrest some attention decline, even if it’s age-related cognitive decline, or ADHD-related attentional drift
Not daily, or weekly, or monthly. ONE session.

Seems too good to be true.
"Want to improve your attention? Meditate for 17 minutes."
"God, I can't spare 17 minutes every day for sitting around and doing nothing!"
"No no, I mean 17 minutes once. In your life. Not daily. Once."

Sadly, I can't seem to find the paper?
Though 'interoception' as a keyword seems really fun to Google. Here's one titled 'Interoceptive Ability Predicts Survival on a London Trading Floor', about exactly what you think it's about.

But I'm curious if he elaborates on what type of meditation he does?
17 min of meditation is just so broad.

My wife sent me this too. Recently had a convo with someone who knows me well who thinks some of my personal difficulties might point to ADHD and that my impression of what ADHD is mistaken and that I actually fit what it is

Within the last year also had someone who deals with lots of kids think the same underlying thing that my other friend ascribes to ADHD ascribe to being on the spectrum.
not sure how much I want to dig, but I gotta deal with my sht too

I love Huberman but he really needs to hire someone to make show notes so we don't all dig for the same paper 1000s of times

I want to believe this is true but now I’m afraid he’s going to turn out to be another Matthew Walker.
