- Dr. Omri Gillath's riveting TEDx talk explores his trailblazing research on the intrinsic benefits of secure relationships. Combining neuroimaging, gene mapping, and advanced cognitive techniques, his extensive research reveals that a healthy attachment with another person not only leads to happiness, but is integral to overall physical health.
Omri Gillath, PhD, is a professor in the Department of Psychology and the Hoglund Brain Imaging Center at the University of Kansas. His work focuses on close relationships, and he uses diverse methodologies including neuroimaging, gene mapping, and advanced cognitive techniques to study attachment, sex, and caregiving. He has published extensively on the topics of interpersonal relationships and relationship neuroscience in leading academic journals, and has two books focusing on these topics; Adult Attachment: A Concise Introduction to Theory and Research, and Relationship Science: Integrating Evolutionary, Neuroscience, and Sociocultural Approaches. Dr. Gillath is an associate editor for the journal Personal Relationships, a member of the editorial board of Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, and a fellow of the Society for Experimental Social Psychology and the Society for Personality and Social Psychology.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
*the key to happiness is that what you're after isn't even happiness. it's fulfillment and being content.*
Every parent must be educated about this before having a child.
There are better, deeper, more thoughtful contributions than this
The problem with DNA sampling is that early childhood experience has an epigenetic effect, turning genes on or off. So the question, “Is it nature or is it nurture” is much more complex than suggested here.
Wow 😲 I didn't realize! It's a bit of a Catch-22 then! Thanks for sharing 🙂👍
He's not really speaking to that so much... and yes, there are a myriad of other factors, which make it multitudes more complex than an either/or equation.
Epigenetic changes can also be transferred through generations, intergenerational trauma issues, on top of one's own epigenetic changes. To even fully address the epigenetics would take a full thesis.
In addition, are they microbiota dynamics (which also can affect epigenetics) which affect neurotransmitters, stress hormones and so on.
If you are wise, and have enough experience, enough study in especially neuroscience/neuropsychology, you can tease out the dynamics much better. It takes time and wisdom. Too often it's not worth it, or covered by insurance, to do that in-depth of assessments.
It is best to touch on a persons past, to see patterns, core wounds, cognitive distortions, limiting beliefs, biases, narratives from those and then help the person to develop skills to move forward. Answers from the past are helpful, but to a limited degree. A person needs support, and skills to move forward...emotional regulation skills, communication skills, developing self agency, self efficacy, and empowerment.
The nature and nurture thing is far too complex to fully figure out, and variables so different, person to person...that to get stuck in that area of focus, is missing much of what really matters.
Excellent talk! Great summary of your neuroscience studies and how to boost attachment security inside and outside the lab.
Brilliantly structured content. A book I read with similar structure had a significant impact on me. "The Art of Meaningful Relationships in the 21st Century" by Leo Flint
Very interesting method but it really is only one method that only helps part of the problem. Like cross training your muscles. You have to find ways to flex the brain towards positivity and get stronger about those ideas and learn how to be more interdependent. You also have to understand your co-dependency and heal your trauma. Be like getting an infection and the doctor says just get some rest. No you need antibiotics and avoid re-infection and then also build up the immune system. One could actually move into secure attachment without the above method but you need the other things I mentioned and you can do them all on your own after learning how.
Hi where can I learn how to move to secure attachment?
@@K4113B4113 book Secure love by Julie Mananno 😉. You got this!
I loved tis episode!
Thank you.
What is the name of the Book?
Excelente
Ok but, can I pat the spider?
The tarantula absolutely not!!!! Lol
This guys so dangerous, becuase half trues are way more dangerous than lies, go back to your lab and keep researching so you avoid feeling your own void
Dangerous?
