2 小时 34 分钟Welcome to the Huberman Lab podcast, where we discuss science and science based tools for everyday life.
I'm Andrew Huberman, and I'm a professor of neurobiology and ophthalmology at Stanford School of Medicine.
My guest today is Doctor Mark Brackett.
Doctor Mark Brackett is a professor of psychology at Yale University and the director of the Yale center for Emotional Intelligence.
He is one of the world's foremost experts on emotions, meaning what emotions are and how they regulate our relationship to ourself and others.
Today's discussion gets heavily into how we should think about our emotions and the emotional expressions of others, and when and how we should regulate those emotions.
This is a very important aspect of.
Our life, because, as we all know.
Emotions are present with us from the moment we are born until the moment we die.
So much like having a body, we need to learn how to work with our emotions in order to have the.
Best quality of life.
We all know that we are supposed to pay attention to our emotions, but at the same time, we are often told that we shouldn't take all of our emotions seriously, nor should we react to all of our emotions with behaviors.
And indeed, that is true.
What's been lacking, however, and what Doctor Mark Brackett finally delivers to us, is a roadmap to think about our emotions in a very structured way, and thereby to engage with our emotions, sometimes shift our emotions, and certainly to understand the emotional expressions of others in ways that.
Best serve our quality of life.
So today's discussion centers very heavily on scientific data that plays out in the real world that we can all use.
We talk about conflict resolution.
We talk about how to think about and work with emotions.
We talk about bullying, both in children and in adults, how to deal with that sort of thing effectively.
And we talk about emotional intelligence, which, it turns out, can be increased at any stage of life.
