9 років тому

Twenty years ago, Dr. Amit Sood, a Professor of Medicine at Mayo Clinic, came to the U.S. thinking he was coming to the Disneyland of the world. He expected everyone here to be very happy. What he saw surprised and shocked him. In this funny, fast-moving, and deeply insightful talk, Dr. Sood shares his journey over two decades and across two continents, finding a way to help us outsmart our neural predispositions to suffering. In the process, he takes us on a back-stage tour of the human brain and outlines the gist of a structured program he is taking globally to decrease stress and improve focus, resilience, and happiness.
Amit Sood, MD, is Professor of Medicine at Mayo Clinic and Director of Mayo's Complementary and Integrative Medicine program. He is the author of The Mayo Clinic Guide to Stress-Free Living and The Mayo Clinic Guide to Happiness. He is one of the most sought-after speakers at Mayo. He has received several NIH and foundation awards to test and implement integrative and mind-body approaches within medicine. Dr. Sood received the 2010 Distinguished Service Award, the 2010 Innovator of the Year Award, and the 2013 Outstanding Physician Award from Mayo Clinic.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

1. Focus on gratitude. Think of 3 people you care about. 2. Find novelty where love is. Think of your loved ones like you haven’t seen them in a long time. Don’t try to improve anybody within the first 3 minutes. Creatively praise them. 3. 2 second: Before your mind judges a person for the first 2 seconds, align your heart and send them well wishes. I summarise because it helps me remember the practices. Hope it helps someone!

Negative Adaptations: 1. Mind Wandering - uncontrolled thoughts 2. Negativity Bias - we remember negative over positives 3. Hedonic Adaptations - we get used to the good. The Solution: Science and Spirituality 1. Gratitude in morning: think about 5 people you are grateful for Focus on maximum net worth... 2. Find novelty where love is: Meet family each day as if you're meeting them after 30 days 3. Creatively Praise! Do not judge 4. Silently wish people good when first meeting. Look at the world the way you want people to look at your children. 5. Reframe your challenges Gratitude Compassion Acceptance Meaning Forgiveness

Summary: humans have neural predisposition to be unhappy. We have 2 modes of the brain: a. focused mode (processing info, engaged) b. default mode (mind wondering, 50-80% of our time). Also, humans have this evolutionary predisposition to focus on threats, negative bias. These neural predispositions keep us from enjoying life. Few practices to train the brain to be happy: a. morning gratitude meditation - think of 5 ppl you're grateful for b. afternoon validation session - think of 3 ppl who care for you c. evening intentionality practice - meet your fnf as if you're seeing them after a long time, look for novelty and find creative ways to praise d. send silent wishes to random ppl instead of silent judgement 5 keys: gratitude, compassion acceptance meaning forgiveness.

It's exactly the opposite... What the scientific method has already shown is that this verbose discourse of the so-called "spirituality", which has been used to enrich people with malicious intentions, or severely affected by personality disorders, is not enough - and just throwing words to the wind... You do need to be able to actually predict something, when you claim to understand a phenomenon... E.g., you can claim to heal an infection "spiritually", with the "laying on of hands", or you can give 500 mg of tetracycline... And what really predicts the cure of the infection? It's exactly the opposite... We are living 3 times longer, dying 40 times less at birth, and 100 times less violent... In 250,000 years we add up to 1 billion people, and dying at 25, on average... In just 250 years of medical science, even with birth control, we have multiplied the human population 8 times, by adaptability and longevity... It's exactly the opposite... The pocket of so-called "spirituality" is increasingly empty...

I’m a PhD student in engineering and I think what he meant is open to interpretation. Also re conclusions, from my experience, a scientific study usually raises more questions than answers-solid conclusions or scientific fact only comes after numerous years, often decades of verification from others. I think this speaker is trying to say that the part of our mind that is logical / scientific is the same part that is mindful, spiritual and intentional. I’m thinking of zen Buddhism specifically which teach us to view our minds with scientific curiosity.

The problem with SCIENCE is it is cold & clinical. MANY TIMES there is no room or opportunity for scientists & TEACHERS to convey WONDER with compassion. /// The problem with SPIRITUALITY is It Gets Dragged Down Into The Mud of Dogma & Religion. THERE IS A VESTED INTEREST TO CONTAIN & DENY SCIENCE SO AS TO KEEP ALL AUTHORITY WITH "THEIR" BRANCH OF RELIGION. (The only Genuine one - sarcasm.)

What a great message. I adopted a little practice last year to help me not drive so absentmindedly or aggressively. Because I realized that this was making me anxious. So, every time I stopped at a red light I would say, out loud, "Thank you, Lord", or "Thank you, Universe". I felt that if I was stopped at a red light I was safe, I was in control, and was grateful for it. Somehow, that little practice morphed into saying silent words of gratitude at other times. In particular, when I realized that I had just dodged some kind of small bullet, or heard my child say something that made me realize she wasn't that raging teenager on the inside. Little things. And every time I do that, there is a shift in my thinking. Every time. Well worth it!

"for the first three minutes when you're with your family, don't try to improve anybody. Two supporting ideas here. One is to be genuinely interested in what is of interest to them, and second is to creatively praise." "for the first two seconds, instead of seeing negatively or neutrally, align your heart and send them a silent 'I wish you well.' ". "so the idea is to meet your family at the end of each day, intentionally, as if you are meeting them after 30 days". "what happens is we get used to the goodness and start focusing on imperfections" these quotes really stood out to me, thank you Amit!

Brilliant. This is brilliant to me, and much needed in a time when I've felt very stressed, couldn't sleep, up at 3AM+ because of stress and anger. Thinking of five people I'm grateful for in my life helped me heal a little--- helped me see humanity again. And my connection to it. I think I can go back to sleep now, and maybe see the world as "going to be alright" when I wake up. I hope others who see this benefit from this too.

I love this. I have been inadvertently doing something like this for a while and it works. Focusing on the people you love (even if it's just by thinking of their face and feeling gratitude) makes you feel connected, even when you're physically alone. It's pretty amazing. I am all for using science and am 100% pro research/evidence -- But I think spirituality is so fundamental to our health as humans. We are smart and we can be rational, but our brains are wired to thrive on people and community. Saying a prayer, at its core, is not intended to be a literal conversation with people who aren't present. It's a way of setting intention towards the things that bring comfort and happiness (which is almost always a sense of connection with others).

The ending of this Ted Talk reminds me of discovering all the varied science courses my first year of college. I told myself that they were all inter related, but they had not figured out the connections yet. I still believe this.

Dr. Amit Sood is great. He teaches us to appreciate those in our families and to focus and not walk around like zombies. We loose so much of out life time not appreciating. In my opinion he teaches how he believes. For reminding to send love to those that r so valuable to us. Most important for those that have religious values send a prayer to them. Thank you Dr Sood!

This has GOT TO be the MOST USEFUL, MOST IMPORTANT TED Talks ever!!! (The ONLY thing that could make it better, is if he/the speaker would just slow down his talking just a tad.)
