In this presentation hosted by Google Talks, psychologist Dr. Ron Siegel discusses how the psychiatric community has adapted meditational practice as a means of coping with stress and depression. Noting that our brains didn’t necessarily evolve with happiness as the primary goal, Siegel illustrates how our survival instinct naturally led to a negativity bias that keeps us in constant avoidance of anything that might cause discomfort. When someone practices mindfulness in daily life, they learn to confront stressful situations and develop a method to stay detached from the constant stream of emotions, both good and bad, that can hold us enslaved.
