Habits and feedback loops are key. Emotional habits. Her notions about the difficulty or effort is accurate. One simply has to recognize they're in the habit of being angry, sad or afraid and that those reactions inform a whole cycle in your body/mind. So make a decision to embrace peace and dislodge the habit of suffering. Then create the mechanisms for making that decision happen.
Being aware of all that’s going on inside is what we call hypersensitivity. And yes it is painful. But we can use that as a force. A strength. Do develop our consciousness and become hyper conscious and reach supra consciousness.
Learning anxiety as determination when it comes to exams The more meanings/concepts you have, the more flexible capacity you have to make sense of sense data in actionable situations. Brain constructing constructs from past. More constructs equals more emotional granularity more flexible. Seeding Predictability - new experience, curate new opportunities, invest resources and becomes effortless, and allows for more future granularity
So wait is emotion the side effect/how we feel of brain communicating with our body, or does the brain create feeling to match with the body's reaction?
6:47 Affect is a feature of consciousness. The theory of triune brain is well suited as a framework for such matters. Each tier is a regulatory loop with input and output. What is needed - to understand how they interact with each other. The key point is terminology. The present words often mix rather different functions. So far as I understand, affect is a very broad term. For initial understanding, better to avoid it at all. Emotions (output) and feelings (input) happen in different structures. The former are generated by the limbic system (mammal brain). The latter emerge in cortical areas (probably in the cingulate gyrus which is shared by the 2 and 3 tiers of triune brain indeed). That is feeling is perception of own emotion.
I think people are not culpable for committing a crime but for all of us as a society is better to do something about that, so the person can learn and also to keep all us safe in the future. I think jail as it is today is not the best option but maybe something where criminals can learn and heal themselves would be better. I recommend you to watch something from Gregory Boyle, a man who help gang members in Los Angeles. He is awesome!
Making predictions is a syntropic process -- teleological. Concepts are dual to percepts -- the mind duality of Immanuel Kant. Causes are dual to effects -- causality. "Always two there are" -- Yoda.
All I hear is what doesn't kill us makes us stronger. That's fine but the world is not full of people who are psychologists and most struggle in life to except the ups and downs or even understand why they have ups and downs.... You take the time to understand yourself and what triggers you to create these emotions. All of a sudden you find yourself alone because you are now psychoanalysing yourself and everything, every person or a future relationships etc. Perhaps TV and the media should stop trying to put every human into a box so they behave in a controlled robot like manner. I think we all forget we are animals and perhaps we should let nature and natural evolution evolve us. You put an animal into a cage, trapped and it will go nuts. I'm sorry but humans and animals are all born with some basic inherit genes. Man made evolution is trying to make everyone conform to a world of control simply for selfish greed and financial gain. The ones who suffer are the pawns on the chess board... If I'm wrong why has mental health escalated off the scale? Psychologists are very good at telling people what's wrong with them, but not so good at curing them. Perhaps curing people would be less profitable?
As Audiophile Nope!!! But if Ever in England I will setup your system and prove with tracks recorded by competent Master Recording Engineer's how a Drum Kit can be played back like a projector but 100% sound
@quantumwaver My point is only that science continues to prove what we have known for a very long time. To answer your point, you don't need to do as Buddha did, because he already did it, this knowledge and of many teachers since is now readily available to all of humanity. Blessings
This would be a generalization, please supply granularity in sharing some of Buddha's concepts so that we can understand your idea in saying "Buddhism has been saying all of this for over 2,000 years.". My ask, supply Buddhist granularity by sharing with us a few of Buddha's concepts and connect them to what Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett shared so that we can try to experience what you mean.
@@andresdiaz7112 We perceive and then label according to our biased perception, usually based on past experiences, this is typical human behaviour. Buddhism talks of emptiness, that all things are actually empty of what our mind perceives/labels them to be. This is what's discussed at 7:00 but there many examples in this video.
Damn, learn some math and stop calling competencies intelligence, intelligence is a specific word with a specific meaning that actually already has a meaning assigned to it
Howard Gardner, creator of the "multiple intelligence theory", defines intelligence as "your ability to solve a problem under a given context (music, DO RE MI, math, 1 + 1 = 2, etc)

Brilliant! Thanks so much for that!
THANK YOU!
timestamp is wrong its 14:00 for free will
"emotions . . . are prescriptions for action" (9:29). . . rather than anxiety, you can learn to experience arousal as determination (11:11)
Habits and feedback loops are key. Emotional habits. Her notions about the difficulty or effort is accurate. One simply has to recognize they're in the habit of being angry, sad or afraid and that those reactions inform a whole cycle in your body/mind.

i'm late diagnosed auadhd, so my experience similar - but the differences a intense
I definitely need to be more emotionally granular and improve my vocabulary
Wow that is the best one sentence summary of this brilliant woman’s expansion of our understanding of emotions thank you!
Excellent
My friend Bill shared all of this and how it works with me except he kept it simpler and focused more on the solution.
Great explanation, full of scientific and human wisdom
I'd recommend that you interview Dr. Bruce Ecker if you haven't yet.

The more meanings/concepts you have, the more flexible capacity you have to make sense of sense data in actionable situations.
Brain constructing constructs from past. More constructs equals more emotional granularity more flexible.
Seeding Predictability - new experience, curate new opportunities, invest resources and becomes effortless, and allows for more future granularity
How do you learn to identify emotions?
So wait is emotion the side effect/how we feel of brain communicating with our body, or does the brain create feeling to match with the body's reaction?

I think the word "interprets" is more appropriate than "predicts".
Now i have curious. If this argument is true, can you use this theory to argue how people are not culpable for committing crime?
I think people are not culpable for committing a crime but for all of us as a society is better to do something about that, so the person can learn and also to keep all us safe in the future. I think jail as it is today is not the best option but maybe something where criminals can learn and heal themselves would be better.

I seen to know a fair number of people whose affect doesn't closely correlate with their sensory data...
Sorry, i have to correct you. Feelings are all in the G.u.T..In and Out. Light and Dark ~ 010
All I hear is what doesn't kill us makes us stronger.

Buddhism has been saying all of this for over 2,000 years.

Irish lad...☘
Too many words. I can't keep listening.
There is no such thing as emotional intelligence.
Damn, learn some math and stop calling competencies intelligence, intelligence is a specific word with a specific meaning that actually already has a meaning assigned to it
Words can have different connotations yes?
Howard Gardner, creator of the "multiple intelligence theory", defines intelligence as "your ability to solve a problem under a given context (music, DO RE MI, math, 1 + 1 = 2, etc)
Competency is just intelligence. Try again
