• Self-Compassion in Uncertain Times | Randall Birnberg | TEDxRWTHAachen

    Randall talks about how self compassion and positive thinking can help us deal with our past. He shares the steps to self compassion and the habits that can make you more compassionate.

    For over 30 years, Randall Birnberg, an American educator and psychologist, has been helping to develop the human potential that lies within each individual. Whether it was the Native Americans "on the rez" of New Mexico or Italian street children in Rome, he always provided the crucial psychological tools to work on individual consciousness and self-compassion.

    Twenty four years ago, he brought his knowledge and experience to Europe. In university lectures, seminars and coaching, he "taught" doctoral students, teachers, employees of international companies … as well as private individuals throughout Europe. As a happiness researcher at Erasmus University in Rotterdam, Randall works within the relatively new science of happiness, also known as "Positive Psychology".

    Positive Psychology deals with human emotions, strengths, relationships, the meaning of life and our achievements. Ultimately, through our well-being & happiness, we become more resilient and more able to withstand uncertain times as we our experiencing today. Randall's current passion is to help Ukrainian refugees living in Germany to integrate into the German culture i.e., by teaching self-compassion techniques, resilience and love-kindness meditations.

    This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

  • How to Listen and Influence Like a Hostage Negotiator | Michelle Kelley | TEDxPortsmouth

    Michelle shares insights from her high-octane career as an FBI hostage negotiator to demonstrate the power of “elite listening” and its powerful application in both the boardroom and at the kitchen table. She is the U.S. lead for the Listening Institute, a training consultancy with one simple mission: to teach professionals to listen and influence like hostage negotiators.

    A former hostage negotiator, FBI special agent, and second-grade teacher (yes, they’re connected!), Michelle Kelley now works to share the skills of elite listening with people from all walks of life. As a counterterrorism agent, 9/11 trial contributor, and educator, Michelle has things she can never reveal — and some that she can. Fortunately, the lessons she can share from her high-octane career transfer to valuable skills we can all use in everyday life. Michelle works with The Listening Institute and lives with her super-supportive husband and sporty son. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

  • Is it normal to talk to yourself?

    Dig into the psychological benefits of positive self-talk, and find out when it can become problematic.

    --

    Being caught talking to yourself can feel embarrassing, and some people even stigmatize this behavior as a sign of mental instability. But decades of research show that talking to yourself is completely normal; most if not all of us engage in some form of self-talk every day. So why do we talk to ourselves? And does what we say matter? Dig into the psychological benefits of positive self-talk.

  • Why don’t we cover the desert with solar panels? - Dan Kwartler

    Explore what would happen if we covered the Sahara Desert in solar panels, and the possibility of it solving our energy crisis.

    --

    Stretching over roughly nine million square kilometers and with sands reaching temperatures of up to 80° Celsius, the Sahara Desert receives about 22 million terawatt hours of energy from the Sun every year. That’s well over 100 times more energy than humanity consumes annually. So, could covering the desert with solar panels solve our energy problems? Dan Kwartler digs into the possibility.

    Lesson by Dan Kwartler, directed by Christoph Sarow, AIM Creative Studios.

  • Explore the psychology of the phenomenon known as cute aggression, which is the urge to squeeze, bite or pinch something cute.

    --

    Watching a kitten fumbling around, it might feel as if you’ve never encountered anything so devastatingly adorable in your mortal life. You may want to pet its soft fur and kiss its tiny head. But you may also feel the conflicting urge… to squeeze or smush the kitten, maybe even stuff it in your mouth. What is this peculiar phenomenon? Joshua Paul Dale explores the urge known as cute aggression.

    Lesson by Joshua Paul Dale, directed by Oksana Kurmaz.
