- About TEDx -

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

I listened to this talk a month ago and I was impressed by how well-articulated and comprehensive it is. I am currently learning more about Decision Making and I am fascinated by the acute intersections between this talk and Kahneman's work. In essence, being brilliant every day mandates improving our System 2 thinking which is often lazy and limited. The steps Dr. Alan Watkins has described can regulate the physiological changes we experience when we are faced with challenging problems, increase our efficiency, and improve our results. Of course, It all takes awareness, practice, and time to master.

Alan your TedX talk all those years ago has really stood the test of time. It's so wonderful that this short explanation has helped and continues to help so many people all over the world.

*"We know too well that our freedom is incomplete without the freedom of the Palestinians."*

Nelson Mandela

After seeing this very powerful message from Nelson Mendela I was crying!

[kripalbedi]

Fantastic lecture here and so well articulated. Loved the live demo too! It put out the message so nicely.

[maximeleggett-tremblay]

whoa i wasn't expecting the end! This is actually the most epic introduction to cardiac coherence breathing you can ever tell someone to convince them to try! :D

[carlosmbaziira]

Dr Watkins is spot on. If I could describe it in other words, its a form of inner standing where you go within yourself and actually start to observe all your emotions and feelings. I dont know how you flick the button on but there is a button. And once you do? your performance and analytical thinking dramatically rises. I am experiencing this everyday, but did not think it was a process until I came across this talk. But my ability to do absolutely anything I set my mind to has actually improved. Maybe there is something to this theory 😊👌

[sebacatana]

11 years later and this is proving to be more and more true, relevant, and useful. Amazing presentation!

[blancabraden]

We are complex beings for sure. Helpful. It makes sense when the breathing technique comes into place, the whole mindset changes, change the physiology, change the behavior. Thanks Dr. Watson!

[KristinAustinMarketingPR]

OMG best TED talk ever. Loved the live demo.
