In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I discuss how to optimize your workspace to maximize productivity, focus and creativity. I explain how key environmental factors such as lighting, the physical layout of your work area and desk setup can influence attention and performance. I also discuss how specific types of sounds can enhance focus and how to adjust your work environment for particular tasks. These practical, flexible protocols can be applied whether you are working from home, in an office or on the road.
