I'm cherishing my ability to pause this video. It allows me to take notes and to think about what he is saying.

ABSOLUTELY PHONMENAL! As a teenager I see the concept of self or identity again and again defined singularly, but THE SELF IS A PLURAL WORD because we are more than our body but this entangled embodiment of informational energy flow all dependent upon the mind, and brain, and our relationships! this smoothly explains how self awareness is like a gateway to empathy and how meaningful lives come from intergration and harmony which explains how cold hedonists have a chaotic and or rigid lifestyle and well being!!

This is probably one of the best lectures I've seen. I love how Dan highlights the importance of man as a relational machine, something that most neuroscientists would label as mystical woo. It is true that man is not separate from his skin. For example, sound-waves are a process that is impossible to avoid. The problem is that it is hard to actually demonstrate the interaction between humans and pinpoint some empirical feature. Only can we see in single individuals how they are affected by one another. I think the next step in neuroscience is along the lines of what Dan Siegel is promoting.

I have found this so helpful when working with people that have survived strokes...and working through rehabilitation.

with gratitude Dr Dan Seigel for your amazing observation in respect to the intelligence of mind and body connection thru senses and emotional movement ............... I am simply fascinated how we can connect to this exchange of energy ................ blessings thank u

If you close your eyes, its neuroscientist George Clooney.

My gratitude for your courageous work is beyond words. As an intern in somatic psychology floundering about uncertain about my sense of direction, i find your offering, first to attempt definition of the mind, naming the role of culture in shaping the brain and providing a framework for education that produces a reflective and resilient generation is monumental. Thank you, you are a gift!

The emergent processes of mind sound a lot like Bandura's idea of the agentic personality function atop his triadic theory of causation which also included behavior (body / brain) and environment (object relations).

@46:10 Goal: for each person to have a sense of identity as we (not me)

So clear, mind-blowing - brilliant!

That was really interesting, thanks for sharing. I signed up for the Garrison newsletter, and look forward to learning more.

Great lecture Dan.

This is brilliant. I love this lecture video! This is an excellent model to explain the mind, brain, human relationships. "Health is integration."

This was wonderful! And right on. It fall into all I know about the benefits of meditation. Thank you.

A decade on and sadly the self remains singular with many holding power to change but hope remains for the collective to take up the compassionate humanitarian ideology and create a culture of we.

I am seeking for people like you to help me to develop amazing ideas, in which include about our minds.

Fantastic insights. Thank you so much for sharing Dan.

When Cognitive science supersedes Human Rights we have to take a step back from all the excitement & ask what is the Utility of it all.

just awesome. :)

The cognitive science is exciting, it sounds like there is a lot of philosophy to be discussed.

THANK YOU!

Excellent overview.

Amazing work! I am agreed with you in a lot of things about our minds and brains how the work. I am not a scientist but I always have a lot of questions about this be you give me a lot of answers very clearly. I would like to speak with you how I can contact you. Our future kids needs to know about how to take care of our beautiful world.

The property of the mind that makes it difficult to define is that it is continually active, but never future or past, and is the manifestation of and catalyst for physical interactions, equal to, or perhaps just beyond our dimensional capacity. This is what makes the mind absurd. It is the only thing that ever exists simultaneously with the present moment, which is equally as difficult to define as 'mind,' for the same reason. I don't know what I'm talking about.

genius. I love it

great knowledge. #brain

The majority of this information is in the right direction. However, as star children, non-locality and quantum entanglement of the mind is because of the matrix. Also, integrated health is the understanding of how the matrix links to the multiple dimensional individual, collective and cultural intentions. Chaos can be shifted back to order (neg-entropy) with our collective minds. Blessings

This is profound and much needed to be heard by all health practitioners - apt words “mental health & ill health is impaired integration” - I fear what the c-pandemic and growth of AI will do the mind of humans…

a few issues: "if i define self as this body, then i could use up all the resources and why would i give a hoot?" > because in order to get resources, you have to expend resources. and it's not in your long-term rational self-interest to do so. early europeans didn't eat their seed crop because they were interested in the well-being of their future self. squirrels eventually stop gathering nuts because they get tired or run out of time. "if there are limited resources, you gather as much as you can and don't try to help out in the bigger picture." > so if there is unlimited resources, what would be the incentive for altruism? why would i help someone if i know they can help themselves because there are unlimited resources? if there are limitied resources, wouldn't i have sympathy for other people because i know they had the same struggle for limited resources and ease my conscience by helping? this doesn't seem very well thought-through to me... i hope these propositions weren't fundamental building blocks to the overall theory...

If anyone is interested in how the mind is formed, we have several books on Amazon/Kindle that one can preview to get an overview of Architectural Redirection. All our books can be found by searching on the name Melanie Adinolfi on amazon.com.

Mind: A heuristic a very complicated mechanism uses to respond to itself in Darwinistically viable ways (as much as that heuristic is survival applicable) and in somewhere near to real time.

This is how parts of the engine work together, through their relationships and interaction drive the wheels. How a turning of the steering wheel aims the wheels, etc. etc. but completely ignores the existence of a driver. Drivers are totally unconnected and exists in a completely different realm than the car. Please Google: "Odhner The Human Mind.pdf" to meet the driver. And "Odhner TheSpiritualWorld.pdf" To see the realm he/we 'the drivers' are in. We control the car, the mind does the brain

Subjectism & collectivism seem to be the underlying themes. eg. "greater good", "we" are CONCEPTS not precepts

@ 51 Minutes - wow wow wow wow wow!!!

To your question at three minutes. That’s a good thing because we got rid of dualism along time ago. Please don’t bring it back it’s a giant leap backwards.

There are a lot of videos explaining what is the mind. You say there are no definitions.

I have just now come across the video from 13 years ago - of course still very timely! Interesting to me as a psychotherapist. Not sure if the information gives me much hope that people who aren’t already have the ability to become advocates for the environment even now when there is more evidence available for climate change and it seems to have sadly become more of a political line drawn in the sand.

Anyone feels like 🤯🤯🤯 ?

Lets just call it the Human Being.

Faith ,Beyond the DNA and Action Potentials discharging in our mind ,brain,body Human being .U.S. Veteran With Neuro-nets electrodes ,life (fluzy)science R&D with a septo plasty who can't spell very good .quantum light blasting my optic nerves >thalamic pathway ways,with a whole lot of perceptual adverse stimulus.

mind /brain connection is what hardware is to software...in living systems

Buddha incarnated as a researcher. Explains “the way things are using science.” Might be hope for us.

College give em for free.

So we’re back to dualism. Can’t believe in the 21st-century we are still making claims that mind is something different to Brain.

This guy is really full of himself.

Your Mind is you. And the brain is a number of machines in your body. Your Mind uses your robotic brain to sense and feel and calculate and inventory. All you need and so on. One Mind does business with another Mind and all minds are connected to a wireless "spiritual-connection" for instant comfort and help. One Mind can connect to another all over world, with instant texting. God is here now. Rejoice. You get the gift knowledge when you need it. We know where are and who you are with and we get instant directions also. learn where ever you and more,

This is so wrong.
