<p>Neuroscientist Kristen Lindquist on how even on a biological level, emotions are entirely subjective. According to this neuroscientist, your emotions look different from those of someone who grew up on the other side of the world.</p>
<p>Kristen Lindquist, a professor of psychology and neuroscience at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, explores the concept of 'affective realism,' where our emotional experiences dictate our true reality. Emotions, Lindquist explains, are cultural artifacts, passed down like art or language, and are distinct reflections of both our biological makeup and our societal norms.</p>
<p>Individualistic societies like the United States and collectivist cultures like Japan interpret emotions like anger differently, leading to varied physiological responses. These findings suggest that there are no “universal emotional expressions,” that even facial muscle movements we associate with certain feelings are not globally recognized, but are instead interpreted through a cultural lens.</p>
<p>Lindquist's work invites us to consider our own emotional responses, encouraging a more open-minded approach to interpreting the feelings of others. Through this understanding, we can appreciate the unique perspectives each individual brings, to eventually unlock better solutions for understanding the world around us.</p>Parwinder Sekhonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01393427416278783513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4560067821891657381.post-20695994057785412102024-03-02T11:00:00.003+00:002024-03-02T11:00:59.214+00:00Bad Therapy, Weak Parenting, Broken Children - Dr Jordan Peterson with Abigail Shrier<p><iframe style="border-radius:12px" src="https://open.spotify.com/embed/episode/5Zk4a6TjFOnkKQP904x7Kg?utm_source=generator" width="100%" height="152" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen="" allow="autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture" loading="lazy"></iframe></p>

<p><b>Active learning</b>: Someone tells you what to learn, how to learn it, on a set schedule, on pre-selected standardized topics.</p>
<p><b>Passive learning</b>: You let your mind wander with no intended destination. You read and learn broadly, talk to people from various backgrounds, and stumble haphazardly across topics you had never considered but spark your curiosity, often because it’s the topic you happen to need at that specific time of your life.</p>

<p>An ultra-processed food (UPF) is any food that’s processed industrially and created for big-business profit, rather than to provide nutrients. And here in the UK, UPF makes up 60 percent of the average diet. The trouble is, says Chris, UPFs have been shown to be the leading cause of early death in the world, ahead of tobacco. Even if you remain at what is considered a healthy weight, consuming UPFs still leaves you vulnerable to things like Type 2 Diabetes, heart disease, dementia, anxiety, depression, inflammatory bowel disease, cancer and eating disorders.</p>
<p>In this conversation, Chris provides a clear definition of the difference between processing and ultra-processing, and explains how our toxic food environment is designed to be addictive. We also discuss a whole range of different topics such as the need to see obesity as a condition and not an identity and the seemingly revolutionary idea that re-prioritising food shopping and cooking as a vital, enjoyable part of our day, could be a first step towards the societal change that’s urgently needed.</p>Parwinder Sekhonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01393427416278783513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4560067821891657381.post-9652823371302279822023-12-30T07:49:00.002+00:002023-12-30T07:49:17.245+00:00Alain de Botton on Happiness, Love and Relationships - The Diary of a CEO with Alain de Botton<p><iframe style="border-radius:12px" src="https://open.spotify.com/embed/episode/3y5As2BSuJqje6g0OyenAA/video?utm_source=generator" width="496" height="279" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen="" allow="autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture" loading="lazy"></iframe></p>

<p>Arthur Brooks is a social scientist, professor at Harvard University, columnist for The Atlantic, and bestselling author. In this episode, Arthur returns to the podcast to discuss his new book, Build the Life You Want. He delves into the nuanced concept of happiness, differentiating between momentary feelings and overall wellbeing. He explains the importance of understanding one’s personality pattern with respect to positive and negative emotions in order to better self-manage emotions. He delves into the three key elements of happiness, offering practical strategies for enhancing those specific domains through methods such as metacognition, transcendent experiences, discipline, minimizing self-focus while directing attention outward, and more. Through personal examples, Arthur demonstrates that one can actively track well-being levels and take intentional steps to cultivate happiness and enhance overall well-being.</p>Parwinder Sekhonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01393427416278783513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4560067821891657381.post-84600619951744542892023-11-28T07:01:00.002+00:002023-11-28T07:01:17.684+00:00Your Future Self Needs Your Help Today - Dr Maya Shankar A Slight Change of Plans with Hal Hershfield<p><iframe allow="autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="152" loading="lazy" src="https://open.spotify.com/embed/episode/4xNZlvI9tXB1Fy5wxmb5YP?utm_source=generator" style="border-radius: 12px;" width="100%"></iframe></p>

<p>A “drop-dead shocker” (Washington Post Book World) that uses evolutionary psychology to explain human mating and the mysteries of love If we all want love, why is there so much conflict in our most cherished relationships? To answer this question, we must look into our evolutionary past, argues prominent psychologist David M. Buss. Based one of the largest studies of human mating ever undertaken, encompassing more than 10,000 people of all ages from thirty-seven cultures worldwide, The Evolution of Desire is the first work to present a unified theory of human mating behavior. Drawing on a wide range of examples of mating behavior — from lovebugs to elephant seals, from the Yanomamö tribe of Venezuela to online dating apps — Buss reveals what women want, what men want, and why their desires radically differ. Love has a central place in human sexual psychology, but conflict, competition, and manipulation also pervade human mating — something we must confront in order to control our own mating destiny.</p>Parwinder Sekhonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01393427416278783513noreply@blogger.com
