Back in 2020, we released a two-part conversation (S1 Ep15 and 16) with neuroscientist Dr Lisa Feldman Barrett. We're long-time admirers of Lisa's work and were thrilled that she agreed to join co-hosts Jean Gomes and Scott Allender to discuss her work on The Evolving Leader podcast. It's also clear that Lisa Feldman Barrett's work is a big hit with our listeners as four years after release these two episodes continue to sit at the top of our listener chart, so here we've decided to pull them together into a special extended episode.Lisa Feldman Barrett is profoundly changing our understanding of the brain and in particular, our emotions. Since the ancient philosophers, and into our last century of scientific endeavour, emotions have been seen as hard-wired responses to external stimuli, located in specific regions of the brain. Lisa's work has over-turned this age-old model which shapes everything from our current beliefs about emotional intelligence to facial recognition software widely being deployed around the world.Beyond this extended conversation, you'll find more of Lisa Feldman Barrett's work in her two books, Seven and a Half Lessons About the Brain (2020) and How Emotions are Made (2017), as well as hundreds of peer reviewed scientific papers appearing in Science, Nature Neuroscience and other top journals in psychology and cognitive neuroscience.Other reading from Jean Gomes and Scott Allender:Leading In A Non-Linear World (J Gomes, 2023)The Enneagram of Emotional Intelligence (S Allender, 2023)Social:Instagram @evolvingleaderLinkedIn The Evolving Leader PodcastTwitter @Evolving_LeaderYouTube @evolvingleader The Evolving Leader is researched, written and presented by Jean Gomes and Scott Allender with production by Phil Kerby.

Your Parenting Mojo - Respectful, research-based parenting ideas to help kids thrive
In our last conversation with Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett [Where emotions come from (and why it matters) Part 1] a couple of weeks ago we looked at her theory of where emotions originate. This has important implications for things like: How our 'body budgets' affect our feelings How we make meaning from our feelings so our internal experience makes sense That we don't always understand other people's feelings very well! The introduction to the theory plus the conversation plus the take-home messages would have made for an unwieldy episode, so I split it in half. Today we conclude the conversation with Dr. Barrett and I also offer some thoughts about things I think are really important from across the two episodes, including: What we can do with the information our feelings give us How long we should support children in feeling their feelings (given that they don't always mean what we think they mean!) and when we should help them move on Some tools we can use to re-regulate in difficult moments with our kids Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett's Books (Affiliate Links) How Emotions are Made: The Secret Life of the Brain Seven and a Half Lessons About the Brain Other episodes mentioned 129: The physical reasons you yell at your kids Jump to Highlights 00:59 Introducing today's episode and featured guests 05:01 People in chaotic or uncertain situations, like poverty or neurodivergence, face greater challenges due to the increased stress on their body budgets. 18:02 Understanding and managing personal needs as a parent, along with emotional flexibility, can lead to more effective responses to children. 23:46 Parents need to balance their own feelings with their children's by asking if their kids want empathy or help. They should remember that every interaction is a chance to teach kids how to manage their emotions. 31:07 Parents can view their empathy for their children as a sign of competence, balancing their own needs with their child's emotions. 34:22 Jen draws conclusions from Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett's research on emotions, highlighting how parents can use this understanding to empower their children in navigating feelings and enhancing emotional literacy.

Cortisol is synonymous with stress. However, according to Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett, it isn't really the ‘stress hormone' we all think it is. In today's episode, Dr. Feldman Barrett shares a different view on how the brain handles stress and uncertainty, and that it is always predicting and shaping our reality.She talks about "body budgeting" and how it is linked to depression and anxiety, and her take on SSRIs and mental health made me rethink everything I thought I knew about the "fight or flight" concept.Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett is a university professor, psychologist and neuroscientist. She's one of the most cited scientists in the world, with over 270 published papers. Her work has shaped our understanding of emotions, the mind, and the brain, and she has written two books that break down complex brain science for everyone.

Natalie McVeigh joins me to talk about her interest in the study of neuroscience of stress and conflict and how she uses what she continues to learn about human brains, emotions, and stimuli in her work with families as a coach, consultant, and mediator. And she helps to bust a few brain myths. Here are some key points Natalie made: perception is everything. When we think about conflict we should focus not on the stimuli (which can very rarely control), but on our response to stimuli. We are 100% irrational. Our beliefs follow our behavior.Natalie recommended two books by Neuroscientist Lisa Feldman Barrett: How Emotions Are Made: The Secret Life of the Brain andSeven and a Half Lessons About the Brain. She also mentioned Fault Lines: Fractured Families and How to Mend Them by Karl Pillemer.Find her on LinkedIn here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nataliemcveigh/Find Natalie at EisnerAmper here: https://www.eisneramper.com/about-us/professional-directory/natalie-mcveigh/Do you have comments or suggestions about a topic or guest?

Lauren needed a vacation, so we're replaying one of her favorite episodes in which she and her friend Kurtis absolutely destroy the beloved self help book Think and Grow Rich. Note that the sound wasn't as good back then, but it's still very easy to listen to. The original episode was posted October 12, 2021. The book Think and Grow Rich was written by Napoleon Hill and published in 1937. It is a famous personal finance book recommended by many. On this episode of Adulting Is Easy, Lauren and Kurtis discuss what they liked and what they didn't like about this book - mostly what they didn't like. Let's just say, neither would recommend this book, and you certainly don't have to read it to enjoy listening to this one. As a matter of fact, you should never read it. Lauren gets HEATED at one point. Kurtis Hanni is an Accountant who has a love of all things personal finance. After teaching Dave Ramsey classes, he thought 'there has to be a better way" and thus started the journey of creating his own finance content. Today Kurtis has a podcast Delve into Money and shares additional insights on Twitter daily. Books You Should Read Instead: Lauren: Your Money or Your Life by Vicki Robin, The Simple Path to Wealth by JL Collins, Set for Life by Scott Trench Kurtis: 7 and a Half Lessons About the Brain by Lisa Feldman Barrett, Essentialism by Greg McKeown, Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel, I Will Teach You to Be Rich by Ramit Sethi Connect with Kurtis: https://www.kurtishanni.com/ https://twitter.com/KurtisHanni Connect with Lauren: https://twitter.com/AdultingIsEasy https://www.instagram.com/adultingiseasyreal/ https://www.housemoneymedia.com/
Ever wondered what would happen if you just quit your job, packed your stuff and moved to the beach in Costa Rica? Jay and Aaron Quinn have done just that. In the first months of 2024, the couple quit their jobs and moved from the US state of Georgia to Samara, Costa Rica without ever having set foot in the country. They had never even used their passports together as a couple, and they have been together for 12 years. So, just who are these daredevils, you ask? In reality, Aaron (they/them) and Jay (she/her) knew that the move to Costa Rica was all a part of their higher mission to continue their healing journey that intensified during the pandemic. They have experienced the joy in making their decision work - becoming content creators, authors, and founders of the More Love More Kindness Summit this June at the Fenix hotel.

This interview is an episode from @The-Well , our publication about ideas that inspire a life well-lived, created with the @JohnTempletonFoundation. Our perception of reality is not an exact representation of the objective truth but rather a combination of sensory inputs and the brain's interpretation of these signals. This interpretation is influenced by past experiences and is often predictive, with the brain creating categories of similar instances to anticipate future events. The brain's categorization process extends beyond physical characteristics to include abstract, functional features. This ability allows humans to create “social reality,” where we collectively assign functions or meanings to objects or concepts that don't inherently possess them, such as the value of money or the concept of borders and citizenship. The brain's capacity for imagination, drawing from past experiences to create something entirely new, is a double-edged sword. While it allows for creativity and innovation, it can also lead to difficulties in staying present. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapters: 0:00 The debate over reality 0:57 Objective reality 3:54 Social reality -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Go Deeper with Big Think: ►Become a Big Think Member Get exclusive access to full interviews, early access to new releases, Big Think merch and more ►Get Big Think+ for Business Guide, inspire and accelerate leaders at all levels of your company with the biggest minds in business -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Lisa Feldman Barrett: Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett is among the top 1% most-cited scientists in the world, having published over 250 peer-reviewed scientific papers.

This interview is an episode from @The-Well, our publication about ideas that inspire a life well-lived, created with the @JohnTempletonFoundation. Aided by best-selling psychology books of the last decade, such as Bessel van der Kolk's The Body Keeps the Score, discussions about trauma and how to deal with it have entered popular public discourse. From police departments to school classrooms, trauma-informed approaches have taken center stage. But leading neuroscientist Lisa Feldman Barrett challenges the popular notion that trauma resides solely in the body. She asserts that trauma is rooted in the brain's predictions and the construction of our experiences. When an adverse experience becomes traumatic, the brain heavily weighs and anticipates that experience in its future predictions. This ongoing prediction and re-experiencing of the traumatic event strengthens the neural connections associated with it, making the predictions more likely to occur in the future. Rather than focusing on the body as the site of healing, she suggests that changing the brain's models of prediction is what needs to be addressed to break free from the cycle of trauma. By understanding the role of predictions and the brain's plasticity, Feldman Barrett offers hope for transforming traumatic experiences and finding new, lasting paths to healing. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapters: 0:00 Why your brain creates trauma 1:44 Does your body keep the score? 2:53 Effective treatments for trauma 4:33 Trauma IS in your head (but everything else is too) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Go Deeper with Big Think: ►Become a Big Think Member Get exclusive access to full interviews, early access to new releases, Big Think merch and more ►Get Big Think+ for Business Guide, inspire and accelerate leaders at all levels of your company with the biggest minds in business -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Lisa Feldman Barrett: Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett is among the top 1% most-cited scientists in the world, having published over 250 peer-reviewed scientific papers.

This interview is an episode from @The-Well, our publication about ideas that inspire a life well-lived, created with the @JohnTempletonFoundation. In today's world, people are more open than ever to discuss their emotions, largely due to the growth in self-help literature and efforts to destigmatize therapy. However, this openness has also resulted in certain misconceptions about emotions, which neuroscientist Lisa Feldman Barrett aims to clarify. Contrary to the notion that emotions are inherently fixed in our brains from birth, Barrett contends that they are primarily based on past experiences and the brain's predictions of future events. This means that emotions aren't merely reactions thrust upon us, but something we actively participate in creating. Barrett further posits that we can alter our brain's predictive patterns by diversifying our experiences such as learning new things, watching films, or engaging in activities like acting that deviate from our routine. By doing this, we can shape the architecture of our future selves. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapters: 0:00 Two myths about emotion 1:24 How your brain creates emotion / How emotions are made 4:36 Depression: A metabolic illness? 5:52 Changing your brain's predictions 7:45 You have more control than you think -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Go Deeper with Big Think: ►Become a Big Think Member Get exclusive access to full interviews, early access to new releases, Big Think merch and more ►Get Big Think+ for Business Guide, inspire and accelerate leaders at all levels of your company with the biggest minds in business -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Lisa Feldman Barrett: Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett is among the top 1% most-cited scientists in the world, having published over 250 peer-reviewed scientific papers.

When wins and losses shape the mood of entire cities, what's happening in the brains of football fans? In this episode, we discuss the neuroscience and psychology of: • Football fandom, and bonding with others over shared love of a team • The chemicals that make wins feel so joyous, and losses so painful • How our empathy systems transport us into the shoes of the players We explore the evolutionary significance of sports, from honing our motor skills as hunter-gatherers to finding connection and purpose through the global tournaments of today, and share our own stories growing up as football fans. And, we speak to Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett, neuroscientist, psychologist, and author, about the physiological effects of watching sports with others — synchronized breathing, matching heart rates, and mirrored movements. Plus! Our son Alexander Noor Sherzai, a newly accepted graduate student at UCLA in the field of computational medicine/AI and a lifelong fanatical Pittsburgh Steelers fan, joins us for a conversation about the cultural and psychological intersection of football fandom: being a fan from a young age, engaging in online discourse, and concerns around the growing epidemic of sports betting. ‘Your Brain On' is hosted by neuroscientists and public health advocates Ayesha and Dean Sherzai. ‘Your Brain On...

In this captivating discussion, we explore how social media is rewiring our brains, why the parent's role is critical in helping a child's brain develop, and what the challenges of puberty mean for cognitive development. Dr. Barrett offers unique insights into the delicate art of knowing when to step in and when to step back, helping our children handle the complexities of daily life.The conversation then takes a turn towards the workplace, shedding light on the pressing issue of work-life balance, and the strategies organizations can adopt to promote healthier working environments. From the provision of healthy snacks and walking breaks to a no-email-at-night policy and trust-building exercises, we explore practical measures that can boost brain health and manage the demands of modern life. Finally, we delve into the fascinating realm of predictions, mental models, and niche construction in business. Dr. Barrett elucidates how humans often adapt their environment to align with their mental models, underlining the crucial role of flexibility and trust in today's fast-paced world.

This interview is an episode from @The-Well, our publication about ideas that inspire a life well-lived, created with the @JohnTempletonFoundation. Plato famously described the human psyche as two horses and a charioteer: One horse represented instincts, the other represented emotions, and the charioteer was the rational mind that controlled them. Astronomer Carl Sagan continued this idea of a three-layer, “triune brain” in his 1977 book The Dragons of Eden. But leading neuroscientist Lisa Feldman Barrett challenges this idea of the brain evolving in three layers, instead revealing a common brain plan shared by all mammals and vertebrates. The development of sensory systems led to the emergence of the brain, and hunting and predation may have initiated an arms race to become more efficient and powerful predators. Despite advances in neuroscience and genetics, the question of why the brain evolved remains elusive. But Feldman Barrett's fascinating exploration of the brain's evolution offers insights into the most important functions of this complex organ, and invites us to think more deeply about the origins of our own intelligence.

We dive deeper into the brain-body connection and the implications it has on our health and well-being. Dr. Barrett further explores how societal pressures and lack of rest are leading to burnout, affecting our mental and physical resilience. She emphasizes the importance of being mindful of others' impact on our lives as we navigate this hybrid working world. So, if you're intrigued by the complex world of human brains and bodies, and seeking strategies to navigate these challenging times, this episode with Dr. Barrett is a must-listen!This episode is part 1 of a two part special.AWA Hosts: Karen Plum and Andrew Mawson Guest: Dr Lisa Feldman Barrett, PhD, Neuroscientist and Psychologist, and author of "How Emotions are Made" and "Seven and a Half Lessons About the Brain."

In this episode of the Awareness to Action Enneagram podcast, Mario Sikora, María José Munita and Seth "Creek" Creekmore address listeners' concerns and feedback on centers and provide a further explanation of what ATA teaches instead. They discuss how they address emotional intelligence with their clients and within their own understanding of human nature.“Now again, emotions and feelings are the data that we have to think about in the context of our environment.” -Mario [17:28]“My thinking skills allow me to not fool myself with a bad narrative. With those feelings, we will explain them somehow, that's for sure. Now, those explanations, the better they are, the more effective we'll be in moving forward. So we need to learn to interpret our feelings, to know ourselves the best way we can, to see how we're fooling ourselves, and that we have to do through thinking.” -María José [18:46]“I do sense like this thing that I hear constantly, as if processing emotions has nothing to do with thinking or your brain. No, it has everything to do with your brain.” -Creek [20:54]TIMESTAMPS[00:01] Intro[02:09] A few responses to past episodes[04:34] A brief history of these concepts[10:40] Understanding & processing emotions[22:32] Books recommendations[24:57] Data vs experience[26:40] Another angle the centers are used[33:36] OutroHere is a list of some of our current favorite resources on thinking, sensing/feeling, and emotion:Clear Thinking Resources:“Mistakes were made… (but not by me)” by Carol Tavris and Elliot Aronson“The Wisest One in the Room: How You Can Benefit from Social Psychology's Most Powerful Insights” by Thomas Gilovich and Lee Ross (also, “How We Know What Isn't So: The Fallibility of Human Reason in Everyday Life”)“Thinking 101: How to Reason Better to Live Better” by Woo-Kyoung Ahn“Clear Thinking: Turning Ordinary Moments into Extraordinary Results” and the The Knowledge Project Podcast by Shane Parrish“How to Think Well, and Why: The Awareness to Action Guide to Clear Thinking” by Mario Sikora On emotion and the brain:“Seven and a Half Lessons About the Brain” and “How Emotions are Made: The Secret Life of the Brain” by Lisa Feldman BarrettSpeaking of Psychology : “Your Brain Is Not What You Think It Is, with Lisa Feldman Barrett, PhD”The Knowledge Project Podcast: #92 Lisa Feldman Barrett: Balancing the Brain BudgetHuberman Lab:

We're re-releasing one of our favorite episodes from the past year with Lisa Feldman Barrett.Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett is among the top one percent most cited scientists in the world for her revolutionary research in psychology and neuroscience. She is a University Distinguished Professor of Psychology at Northeastern University. She also holds appointments at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital, where she is Chief Science Officer for the Center for Law, Brain & Behavior.Her books include Seven and a Half Lessons About the Brain and How Emotions are Made. She has published over 240 peer-reviewed, scientific papers appearing in Science, Nature Neuroscience, and other top journals. Dr. Barrett has been called “the most important affective scientist of our time”. In this episode, I talk to renowned neuroscientist Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett about emotions and the brain. She reveals what the true function of the brain is⎯and it's not for thinking. We also discuss the impact of past experiences on our cognition and what we can do to overcome our own detrimental patterns. Further into our discussion, Dr. Lisa challenges the traditionally held view that emotions are universal. In her own theory of constructed emotion, she argues that variability in emotional expression exists due to socialization and language differences. We also touch on the topics of hallucinogens, culture, education, relationships, and authoritarianism.

In this episode Dr. Nader sits down with Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett for a fascinating conversation about feelings, emotions, and thoughts and the role they play in our lives. Does everyone experience happiness, sadness, and anxiety the same way? As we learn more about the brain we realize how mistaken we might have been about the mechanics of emotions. Can we eliminate the unhelpful patterns of feelings and emotions holding us back from living a fulfilling life? Dr. Feldman Barrett is a neuroscientist, a University Distinguished Professor of Psychology at Northeastern University, and is among the top one percent most-cited scientists in the world for her revolutionary research in psychology and neuroscience. She is the author of the books 'Seven and a Half Lessons About the Brain' and 'How Emotions are Made' and has published over 260 peer-reviewed, scientific papers.

Did you know that the 80:20 principle also works in reverse? Whilst 80% of your output will come from 20% of your people, the same is true of your problems. Meaning 80% of the errors will be caused by 20% of your people. But, says Dr. Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic, Organisational Psychologist, currently Chief Innovation Officer at ManpowerGroup, companies spend way more time on development than they do on talent acquisition. So, what can you do about that? Well, don't miss Tomas on this episode of The Melting Pot explaining how technology is revolutionising the recruitment role, why assessing candidates is a costly mistake, the difference between genders in terms of curiosity, why the world is so full of rubbish leaders, and how we can bring about change in leadership. This is a fascinating episode, truly insightful. Download to listen.

What will you do if you have a novel idea that you know could help the Water Treatment Industry? Not many of us would take the first step and make whatever idea we have a reality. My guest today took a leap of faith and created something out of an idea he had. He created a matrix that all Water Treaters could use, wrote a paper, gave a presentation at AWT, consulted with peers, and now helps other companies be better. Let's welcome Dave Christophersen, Certified Water Technologist and owner of Dave Christophersen Consulting LLC to the Scaling UP! H2O podcast. Dave created the W.O.E. Relative Risk Factor Index, a critical service and reporting criteria using three site risk factors: Water, Operation, and Equipment. The WOE formula can be applied to any water treatment system including boiler, cooling, clarification and wastewater, membrane systems, closed loops, and specific processes. And in this episode, Dave is going to tell us exactly how. Dave has more than 43 years of experience in the industry. His experience spans from wastewater treatment, boiler water treatment and pretreatment, and cooling water, to membrane technologies over very broad industrial, commercial, and institutional markets all over the world. This includes oilseed, steel, manufacturing, power, chemical, mining, commercial and institutional industries. With his experience in business management, field management, technical support, sales and marketing, chemical product development and product formulation of water treatment chemicals, and training of field and site personnel, Dave has conducted training in an array of topics such as water treatment chemistry, boiler and cooling systems and treatment, wastewater treatment and jar testing, membranes systems and cleaning procedures, plant operations, and industrial services. Dave has a degree in Chemistry from Grove City College and an MBA from Butler University. He worked in big Water Treatment companies before founding his own consulting company, servicing the industrial and commercial water treatment industries. What Dave created was a common language that all of us Water Treaters understand, leading to a clearer understanding between the Water Treater and the customer. Bottom line: Dave Christophersen is going to tell us what the W.O.E. Relative Risk Factor Index is, and how it can make us better Water Treaters. Your roadside friend, as you travel from client to client. -Trace Timestamps: See you at the AWT Convention in Vancouver next week and upcoming Events for Water Treatment Professionals [01:26] Thinking On Water With James [08:46] Who is Dave Christophersen of Dave Christophersen Consulting? [12:05] How can you overcome the challenges of starting your own company? [18:07] What is the W.O.E Relative Risk Factor Index that Dave Christophersen created? [23:04] How should water treaters use the W.O.E Relative Risk Factor Index? [28:10] How can a Water treater set up their own Risk Matrix? [34:56] How can you start implementing a Risk Matrix in a company's survey process? [39:15] How can you best communicate the W.O.E Relative Risk Factor Index with your customers? [42:47] Lightning round questions [47:39] Thinking On Water With James: In this week's episode, we're thinking about reverse osmosis makeup for boilers. What are the advantages of using RO makeup for a boiler system? What is the recommended maximum number of cycles for a boiler on RO makeup? How might RO makeup impact condensate corrosion and neutralizing amine usage? How will a high percent condensate return impact the economics of installing an RO? What boiler savings may be the highest when changing from soft water to RO makeup? Is it the water? Wastewater? Fuel? Chemical costs? Why would a chemical company want to recommend RO equipment for boiler makeup? Take this week to think about using RO makeup for boilers. Quotes: “Water Treaters, especially as they get more years of experience, almost intuitively, assess risks.” - Dave Christophersen “What is a risk? Risk is not having outcomes that you want.” - Dave Christophersen “The W.O.E Relative Risk Factor Index allows you to access risk in three areas: Water, Operations, and Equipment.” - Dave Christophersen “What makes something high risk? What makes something low risk? You need to know your risk level.” - Dave Christophersen “If you know what is risky and know all the different things that are involved in assessing and having a successful outcome, then you can set goals for improvement, and from time to time reassess the numbers you assigned.” - Dave Christophersen Connect with Dave Christophersen: Phone: 937.477.7129 Email: christophersendave@gmail.com LinkedIn: in/dave-christophersen-a3291328 Dave Christophersen's AWT Presentation: 2021 Risk Factor Index Critical Service and Reporting Criteria Using Site Risk Factors - 2021 AWT Conference Paper Plant Water Treatment Risk Identification Matrix and RFI Template 1 to 3 scale Links Mentioned: The Rising Tide Mastermind Submit a Show Idea AWT (Association of Water Technologies) Gary Sinise Foundation Events: Check out our Scaling UP!

To understand the brain's function and methods is to get some much needed distance from family dynamics so that we might understand them more fully. Lisa Feldman Barrett has been researching and writing about how emotions are made for many years. Kelly and Lisa met on the set of Tell Me More for PBS and they have been talking ever since, particularly about how neuroscience informs parenting. This is a conversation for anyone who has ever been stunned by an interaction, good or bad, and wondered what just happened? Check out Lisa's books - How Emotions Are Made: The Secret Life of the Brain & Seven and a Half Lessons About the Brain.

The quality of information we intake and the meaningful conversations we have directly equate to how productive and meaningful we consider our lives to be. When we add digital devices into the mix we add distractions that keep us from focusing on the task at hand. The distractions plus the frustration of being unable to focus our attention can lead to stress which wreaks havoc on our bodies. To find out how we can take a much-needed digital detox and focus to make the most out of every moment, Positive Psychology Podcast Host Lisa Cypers Kamen speaks with two authors about their work in the realm of evolved brain function, emotions, and productivity. Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett is a neuroscientist, psychologist, and author who dispels some popular brain myths and discusses the content of her book, Seven and A Half Lessons About the Brain. Chris Bailey has studied stimulation statistics and shares what lies at the core of what it means to be productive and how intention and focus can increase productivity.

In this episode, I talk to renowned neuroscientist Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett about emotions and the brain. She reveals what the true function of the brain is⎯and it's not for thinking. We also discuss the impact of past experiences on our cognition and what we can do to overcome our own detrimental patterns. Further into our discussion, Dr. Lisa challenges the traditionally held view that emotions are universal. In her own theory of constructed emotion, she argues that variability in emotional expression exists due to socialization and language differences. We also touch on the topics of hallucinogens, culture, education, relationships, and authoritarianism.BioDr. Lisa Feldman Barrett is among the top one percent most-cited scientists in the world for her revolutionary research in psychology and neuroscience. She is a University Distinguished Professor of Psychology at Northeastern University. She also holds appointments at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital, where she is Chief Science Officer for the Center for Law, Brain & Behavior.Her books include Seven and a Half Lessons About the Brain and How Emotions are Made. She has published over 240 peer-reviewed, scientific papers appearing in Science, Nature Neuroscience, and other top journals.

To kick off season three of The Merry Menopause Bookclub podcast I am delighted to be joined by Kimberley Wilson Chartered Psychologist and author of How to Build a Healthy Brain. Kimberley believes the way we think about mental health – as separate from physical health – is flawed. Her philosophy of Whole Body Mental Health is a comprehensive approach to mental health care; integrating evidence-based nutrition and lifestyle factors with psychological therapy. Kimberley co-hosts the podcast Made of Stronger Stuff on BBC Radio 4 and her own podcast Stronger Minds and is often recognised as a former finalist on the Great British Bake Off! She has been the mental health expert on several Channel 4 documentaries and is a regular contributor to Lorraine on ITV.In this fascinating episode Kimberley reveals the shocking fact that depression is the leading cause of disability across the world and dementia and Alzheimer's are the leading cause of death in the UK, overtaking heart disease and diabetes. With this in mind, we need to start looking at an holistic and preventative approach to mental health, acknowledging the relationship between the brain and the body rather than thinking of the two as separate. We discuss the long term use of anti-depressants and why we should be reassessing the causes of depression. What is making people feel bad for so long? And the importance of diet, exercise, community, optimism and resilience on our short and long term brain health.This episode is a must-listen if you want to understand how important it is we look at our daily lives and how they impact our mental health. We forgot that our brain is an organ and we need to take care of it as much as we take care of our heart Kimberley's book choice Lisa Feldmen Barrett , Seven and a Half Lessons About the BrainFind out how you can work with me, my coaching and education, and get your free Menopause Symptom tracker at www.themerrymenopause.com

On this episode of Adulting Is Easy, Lauren and Kurtis discuss what they liked and what they didn't like about this book - mostly what they didn't like.

This includes the traditional measures of economic value found in GDP statistics, but also includes measures of leisure time, household production, and environmental amenities, as summed up in a relevant measure of wealth.”” See “The Clear and Comprehensive Case for Growth” (Archbridge Notes, 2018)This episode was recorded in July 2021The “Beautiful Illusions Theme” was performed by Darron Vigliotti (guitar) and Joseph Vigliotti (drums), and was written and recorded by Darron Vigliotti

So, if you want to make a sustainable change at work, you are more likely to succeed if you approach your change as a gardener, not a mechanic.""Mechanics rely on predictability. They assume that the same inputs produce the same outputs, time after time. A car, for example, will perform as predicted on a tarmac road.""Gardeners know that their environment is unpredictable, with much of it outside their control. Gardeners, therefore, take small steps towards a bigger goal. They experiment to find out what works and what doesn't and continually adjust to what they find out."Resources Mentioned In This EpisodeBooks: Noise: A Flaw in Human Judgment & Thinking Fast & Slow Books: How Emotions Are Made & Seven and a Half Lessons About the Brain Book: Livewired Book: Think Again Podcast: SidewaysDocumentary: The Mole AgentAbout The International Leadership Association (ILA)The ILA was created in 1999 to bring together professionals with a keen interest in the study, practice, and teaching of leadership.

“...think about what it means to be human, and what kind of a human you really want to be.” -- Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett Our host, Sarah, is joined by neuroscientist Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett. Initially working as a clinical psychologist, Lisa went on to study emotions and how our brains work, asking questions about the neuro-biological basis for mental and physical health. Lisa has written two books: The Secret Life of the Brain, about how emotions are made, and her newest book, Seven and Half Lessons About the Brain, a book of essays. She describes the essays as “neuroscience nuggets to live a different life, a better life, or maybe be happy with the life that you have.” Since the NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM) is informed by the latest findings within neuroscience, and particularly in the areas of attachment, emotions and trauma, Lisa’s work has much to contribute to more effective clinical interventions. Core to both of Lisa’s books is her assertion that “the most important job of our brains is to run a budget for our bodies.” Similar to the concept of Self-Regulation, she describes, “your brain didn’t evolve to think and feel and see…it evolved to control your body.” Lisa names that knowledge about our brains gives us more choices and options, as well as increased “responsibility” for ourselves. This responsibility aligns with NARM and the concept of Self-Agency. NARM also aligns with Lisa’s research, that though we cannot change the past, we can change how we relate to it. Lisa closes by sharing the key invitation from her book, “to think about what it means to be human, and what kind of a human you really want to be.” About Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett Lisa Feldman Barrett, PhD, is among the top one percent most cited scientists in the world for her revolutionary research in psychology and neuroscience.

(Note: This interview first aired last fall.) Our guest is Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett, a noted expert on both psychology and neuroscience who's also a University Distinguished Professor at Northeastern University in Boston. She tells us about her book, "Seven and a Half Lessons About the Brain." Per a starred review in Kirkus: "[This is] an excellent education in brain science.... [Feldman Barrett] deftly employs metaphor and anecdote to deliver an insightful overview of her favorite subject.... So short and sweet that most readers will continue to the 35-page appendix, in which the author delves more deeply, but with no less clarity, into topics ranging from teleology to the Myers-Briggs personality test to 'Plato's writings about the human psyche.' Outstanding popular science."

Regardless of how important the topic is, are you compelled to learn something when someone else requires you to learn it? As learning professionals, we are faced with this challenge often. Should we make learning topics mandatory? Or should we avoid it entirely (minus the legal stuff) and focus on motivating? To help us discuss and debate this topic, special guest Michelle Buechler joins the show to share her years of experience with launching company-wide learning initiatives.

She joins Dr. Peeke for an incredibly engaging conversation on how our brains work: the plasticity of our brains as resiliency, how the brain changes after dealing with trauma, how our brains work with other brains to feel empathy, and MUCH much more.
Today's guest is Evangelia Avloniti, founder of Ersilia Literary Agency. Her agency represents Greek and foreign authors in Greece and worldwide, and foreign publishers and agents, including 2 Seas Agency, in Greece. Greece has had its share of crises these last 10-15 years or so, even before the arrival of the Covid-19 pandemic. On this episode, we discuss amongst others how this has helped make the Greek publishing market more resilient, the impact of the pandemic on the country's publishing industry, what led Evangelia to found her own literary agency back in 2009, the challenges she faced then, and how she dealt with them. Show Notes Evangelia's book recommendations - Seven and a Half Lessons About the Brain by Lisa Feldman Barrett (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2020) - Shuggie Bain by Douglas Stuart (Grove Press, 2020 for the US edition; Picador, 2020 for the UK edition) About Evangelia Evangelia Avloniti, was born in Corfu, Greece. She studied History of Art, Archaeology and Literary Translation at various institutions, including the Courtauld Institute of Art, King's College, London, and University College London. She began her career at Sotheby's in London and then worked as an editor in ELT publishing for five years. In 2009, she founded the Ersilia Literary Agency, where she represents Greek and foreign authors in Greece and worldwide, and foreign agents and publishers in Greece. She was named a Frankfurt Fellow in 2013 and a Zev Birger Fellow in 2015.
You get a hunch when moving through the world, that we're an incredibly irrational species. You only have to look around us to see that almost everything around us is made up. However, It's nice to see this irrationalty laid out in such empirical terms through Lisa Feldman Barrett's ingenious work. A rigorous explorer of the brain, she is a distinguished professor at Northeastern University, among the top one per cent most cited scientists in the world for her revolutionary research in psychology and neuroscience. Two books have brought her widespread acclaim, her 2017 book, How Emotions Are Made which laid out the theory that emotions have no more intrinsic value than say a nation-state or the currency you possess printed on paper. That emotions are merely just another fabricated narrative that we as humans hang onto so potently. In 2020, she followed this up with another, challenging assertion in her masterful small but insightful guidebook, Seven and a Half Lessons About the Brain. She challenged us to overturn centuries of assumptions about the brain's evolution, one that postulated its sole evolutionary function was to think. This, she asserts is not the case, much the very opposite, rather its function to this very day is to calculate and manage the energy tradeoffs that our bodies are making day in and day out, makes sense, right? If only we could really listen to the counter-intuitive wisdom found in Feldman Barrett's profoundly important work, then we might not be walking around the Savannah holding ourselves to such high regard. This is a profoundly important discussion which again reminds us of our earnest place in the world
Neuroscientist Shares Common Myths About Your Emotions and How Your Brain Actually Works!!! There's a whole science about how the human brain works and what really controls our feelings and emotional responses to situations and most of what we have been told about how this works in the past is wrong. My guest on this fantastic episode, Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett, Ph.D., is here to dismantle common myths about emotions and the brain. She stands among the top 1% most cited scientists globally for her revolutionary research in psychology and neuroscience. Dr. Barrett is a University Distinguished Professor at Northeastern University and she is also Chief Science Officer for the Center for Law, Brain & Behavior at Harvard University. She was awarded a Guggenheim fellowship in neuroscience in 2019, has published over 240 peer reviewed articles and has a TED talk on emotions that has been viewed over 6 million times. She is the best-selling author of "How Emotions are Made" and her latest book "7 1/2 Lessons about the Brain" is just as powerful. Some of the topics we cover today include: The old notion of the dynamics of emotions versus the new The real function of the human brain. How past experiences and behaviors affect the ability of our brains to guess responses to our external forces. Dr. Barrett thoughts on 'Stress' The power of words from a neurological point of view. Dr. Barrett explains Depression Adaptable patterns for a more optimistic approach to the future. Similarities between our "body budget" and "bank account" Takeaways There's no good evidence that emotions can be read or interpreted through facial expressions or body language. We have the kind of brain that doesn't have a good sense of what is happening in our bodies. Our brain has to guess. All it receives are the sensations coming from our bodies, but it doesn't know what's causing them. So when you have an ache in your chest, your brain tries to figure out what caused that ache. Our body makes the same guesses. Those guesses are usually knit together to create our experience. That's really how our brain is making emotions. You don't have circuits for anger, sadness, and fear embedded in some ancient part of your brain. That's just a myth. Your brains don't evolve to be any more rational than they are. Its function is to regulate your body's systems, and that's pretty much all it'll be doing all your life. Practice gratitude, compassion, and train your brain to be flexible so that you can view life from multiple perspectives. We are a social species, which means we influence each others' nervous systems in really profound ways. We regulate each other's nervous systems in many ways that other animals do too. But we have an additional way, and that's with words. Depression is like a bankrupt body budget. It means you have stopped learning, and you stick with what's in your head. You're fatigued and pay no more attention to what's out in the world. Two easy ways to shift your predictions for a more optimistic approach towards life: Change the state of your body. (Get up and move around) and practice gratitude. It works!

On this episode of Sanity, Dr. Jason Duncan and Jared Cohen, M.A., M.B.A. dive into sport and performance psychology. Jared Cohen works as a mental performance coach for both individuals and teams, and he recently conducted a training with the Transportation Security Agency (TSA). He discusses the different components of performance psychology and provides information about how he intervenes to improve performance in our mental abilities. He shares the three areas he typically focuses on are self-awareness, self-reflection, and self-regulation. Jared Cohen links his practices in performance psychology to well-established psychological theories and evidence-based practices, including cognitive theory, attribution theory, perception theory, and “hardiness.” Numerous examples of intervention techniques and the benefits of changing our perspectives to enhance performance are provided. Tune in for a great episode on how psychological theories are applied to reduce mental blocks and improve performance!

I'm honoured to speak with Dr Lisa Feldman Barrett in this episode. Lisa is a University Distinguished Professor at Northeastern University with appointments at the Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School. She is among the top 1% most cited scientists in the world for her revolutionary research in psychology and neuroscience. Lisa is also author of several books including her latest "Seven and a Half Lessons About the Brain" in which she demystifies that big grey blob between your ears. Lisa and I take an in depth look at this phenomenal book and how it relates to sports coaching, learning and performance.
This episode is part one of a two part conversation that Jean and Scott had with neuroscientist, Dr Lisa Feldman Barrett. University Distinguished Professor of Psychology at Northeastern University, and Chief Science Officer for the Center for Law, Brain and Behaviour at Harvard, Lisa Feldman Barrett, is profoundly changing our understanding of the brain and in particular, our emotions. Since the ancient philosophers, and into our last century of scientific endeavor, emotions have been seen as hard-wired responses to external stimuli, located in specific regions of the brain. Lisa's work has over-turned this age-old model which shapes everything from our current beliefs about emotional intelligence to facial recognition software widely being deployed around the world. Lisa Feldman Barrett has written two books, Seven and a Half Lessons About the Brain (2020) and How Emotions are Made (2017), as well as hundreds of peer reviewed scientific papers appearing in Science, Nature Neuroscience and other top journals in psychology and cognitive neuroscience.

Why do we have emotions, anyway? Are they hardwired into the brain? Lisa Feldman Barrett is one of the world's leading experts in the psychology of emotions, and she emphasizes that they are more constructed and less hard-wired than you might think. How we feel and express emotions can vary from culture to culture or even person to person. It's better to think of emotions of a link between affective response and our behaviors.Support Mindscape on Patreon.Lisa Feldman Barrett received her Ph.D. in psychology from the University of Waterloo.
