How mindfulness changes the emotional life of our brains | Richard J. Davidson | TEDxSanFrancisco

"Why is it that some people are more vulnerable to life's slings and arrows and others more resilient?" In this eye-opening talk, Richard Davidson discusses how mindfulness can improve well-being and outlines strategies to boost four components of a healthy mind: awareness, connection, insight, and purpose.

Richard Davidson is researching how mindfulness changes the emotional life of our brains and what we know about people's brains of individuals showing more resilience than others. Davidson is Wiliam James and Vilas professor of psychology and psychiatry at the University of Wisconsin-Madison as well as founder and director of the Center for Healthy Minds. His research is focused on the neural bases of emotion and emotional style and methods to promote human flourishing, including meditation and related contemplative practices. #Neuroscience💬​ #Wellbeing💬​ #MentalHealth💬​ Richard Davidson is Research Professor of Psychology and Psychiatry and Founder & Director of the Center for Healthy Minds, University of Wisconsin-Madison.Davidson’s research is focused on the neural bases of emotion and emotional style and methods to promote human flourishing including meditation and related contemplative practices.

"The 5 Filters of the Mass Media Machine"

This is a great short video summarizing what Noam Chompsky called the "5 filters" in his book "Manufacturing Consent".

It describes how the mass media industry is fundamentally and inherently manipulated to perpetuate a filtered view of reality through the influence of:

1. Ownership
2. Advertising
3. the Media Elite
4. Flak
5. "the Common Enemy"

“We’re riddled with pointless talk, insane quantities of words and images. Stupidity’s never blind or mute. So it’s not a problem of getting people to express themselves but of providing little gaps of solitude and silence in which they might eventually find something to say...what a relief to have nothing to say, the right to say nothing, because only then is there a chance of framing the rare, and ever rarer, thing that might be worth saying.”

Quantum Biology: The Hidden Nature of Nature.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ADiql3FG5is
1h 30m

This is a panel of scientists discussing the topic of the influence of Quantum Physics on evolutionary biology, and all the ways that quantum physics is utilized by biological organisms in everyday life. A couple examples where quantum physics is implicated as an important mechanism in biological processes includes "super smell" like dogs have, and photosynthesis.

This helps determine screen size. Useful when purchasing devices that only give the diagonal screen measurement and resolution. This way you can find the exact width and height in inches.

It can actually calculate any of these numbers using any two of them to find the rest of the numbers: resolution, diagonal screen measurement, screen width, and screen height. And, also, #fskynet💬

www.ethicalconsumer.org "since 1989"

Ethical Consumer is a great buyers guide to being sure you're not supporting something really bad when you buy stuff.

I went there looking for advice about buying a tablet, and certain brands were recommended over other brands, while certain brands were singled out as especially problematic, but ultimately it said the most ethical option is buying something refurbished or second hand. (This was 2022).
