- You already possess the tool you need to control your own happiness. Emma Seppälä explores the science behind harnessing your state of mind and how it can ultimately lead to success.
“Thank you for giving me my life back,” shared one veteran who was helped by Emma Seppälä, Ph.D., to overcome trauma during a study that used non-traditional ways to help veterans successfully cope with post-traumatic stress disorder. In her new book, The Happiness Track, Dr. Seppälä shares how to apply the science of happiness in one’s life in order to accelerate success (www.emmaseppala.com/book/). As it turns out, happiness is not as elusive as it once seemed. Using findings from cognitive psychology and neuroscience, Dr. Seppälä simplifies happiness so that anyone can enjoy it. As the Science Director of Stanford University’s Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education, Dr. Seppälä is a “leading expert on health psychology, well-being, and resilience.” She’s a frequent contributor to Harvard Business Review, Psychology Today and Scientific American Mind. She’s the founder and editor-in-chief of Fulfillment Daily, a news site dedicated to the science of happiness.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
To all veterans and armed services people: I SALUTE YOU💐💐💐1000 thanks is not enough for your sacrifice.
This is not fair, they helped all of us and now they need our help. Count me in!
Sudarshan Kriya has been promoted in India for ages and by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar who runs the "Art of Living" foundation in Bangalore promoting yoga, meditation and ayurveda. Excellent Ted Talk. Thanks Dr. Seppala. Great work and contributions.
Super Talk Emma!!! And I loved your book too- The Happiness Track.
Really appreciate this talk and teaching. I always tell my clients, "Your breath will save you." May all beings be safe and have peace and ease. May all being be happy.
This was a great talk. My son-in-law, an Iraq veteran, was aided greatly by the breathing techniques presented. As he benefited, my daughter, their children, and I also gained downstream. Great approach.
Thank you.

Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication, and breath is about the simplest thing we can do (we just have to think of it)! Thank you Emma, for this great talk.
Her calmness is showing on the surface. Amazing. Thank you for the talk!
having tried these techniques they work - life transforming
inspirational! this knowledge of the breath, especially the Sudarshan Kriya technique, can change the world, create more peace between nations and more health for the population. It completely transformed my career, my music and my relationships. Highly recommended!
Moving and inspiring! Such powerful simplicity!
I've struggled with mental illness and my life really improved (less anxiety, less stress, less anger, more calm and focus) when I learned that breathing technique in college. You can learn it on the Art of Living's Happiness Program: www.artofliving.org/us-en/happiness-program
why do I need a $400 program to learn a breathing technique?

This video is very inspiring. Emma opened my eyes about happiness and how it leads to success. Thank you for your insight.
We need to learn from this video. Thank you for this video.
Thank you for such a good inspiration Emma.
Great talk, loved your examples and illustrations.
Thank you Emma. I'm way far from having experienced such violent traumas, but on my modest level, the continuous attention to my breath, being kind to what I feel is the best stuff I ever initiated in my life, 5 y. ago. Among some residual personal crappy behaviors, I am much less reactive and therefore somewhat more sociable and efficient.
Whatever, being attentive feels great
loved this talk... simple, a gift.
Thank you very much for sharing this kind of.... I think its very helpful for all of us to control our anxiousness and also leaving with peace. Thank you.
Excellent talk. BREATHWORK is an essential life skill that should be taught at an early age and practiced through life. There are potentially significant benefits for personal and community health!
Powerful ! Drops of Grace ! TY
Thanks for this talk 👍.
So helpful! I have been depressed and anxious for 5 years now and this really helps me in combination with laughing exercises!
Tom van Die What are the laughing exercises?
Fraco, google laughing yoga or youtube it ...very interesting
Beautiful talk Emma, and great work. How awesome that these breathing techniques help ex-forces so much.
I found your name thanks to Max Strom :)
Blissful breathing technique:
1. Gently breathe in filling belly, then ribs, then upper chest. Feels like gently inflating a balloon. Brief pause.
2. Gently breathe out, relaxing all tension. Feels like a deep full-body sigh.
3. Pause after exhale, let sounds wash over you, relax until next gentle inhale.
Repeat as long as you want. Slow, comfortable, gentle.
Works best when lying down, relaxing into the floor. Also effective when you sit.
Experiment, find out what works for you. There are tons of videos on youtube about the benefits of breathing well. I can recommend some if you want.
I struggled with long-term hyper vigilance (from high crime rate area).
I'm amazed at how quickly and how well breathing correctly gets me into a blissful state.
I believe our distractible tech culture reinforces anxiety because the ping-pong short attention-span mimics state of high alert. Jumpy behaviour leads to jumpy breathing.
Breathing correctly sounds so simple ... and lame. But really, it's my main gateway to happiness & health.
Best soundtrack - if you need one - is the ebb and flow of gentle ocean waves.

Hi Emma Seppälä
Could you please tell me who was the psychologist you mentioned in your talk.
Thank you for your work, it is amazing what we can do when we understand how our breathing effects our health (#BohrEffect! among many other factors).
"‘…Normalisation of breathing immediately triggers a healing process..." Buteyko Trilogy Volume 1 Chapter 17: The First Handbook
+TheBreathingMan Pierre Philippot - you can read more in my book The Happiness Track where I describe his study
+Emma Seppälä Thank you very much for replying and for his name Emma.
+Emma Seppälä would you say that feeling of happiness is a result of biochemical process in the body?
I am watching this video.
This video is wosum.
osam video. this video is great. i like it.
I’ve read 60 pages and it’s so basic, there’s nothing new in the book so far. But I always remind myself that repetition is important and one thought can change the whole game.
The breathing techniques here are written the ancient text of hatha yoga pradiprika. Find a qualified teacher in yoga and they can help anyone learn these techniques. However, like any training all is not equal, ask the teacher if they know this text and have read it. Some western methods of yoga teacher training sadly do not cover breathing and philosophy they just teach asana (postures). In the uk, the British wheel of yoga does allocate a whole year (part time) training their teachers on breath techinques from basic to advanced. If you ask about this text and get a blank face then move on, all good teachers should own a copy and have lots of notes and scribbles in it like me! Find a good qualified teacher to help you. Good luck.
Alas, the yogis were right! :-)
This is too much educative. We want more to improve oursalves
Take this one step further: learn the Buteyko breathing method.
this is what taught in india for millions of years
subclinical levels?
One minute silence for all those who dnt know it and too self proud to talk advice from other
Need Dutch sub.. :D
There are many different things here.
Great Talk Emma. Many thoughts you addressed are followed by disciples of great Shri Ravi Shankar. He also has this Art of Living (AOL) happiness program. Check this out: www.artofliving.org/us-en/founder
"very unique"?
The study by Philippot study she´s referring to (2010) has severe limitations, both in validity of measurements and in sample size (n=23). Her interpretation of the study is wildly exaggerated.
will cigarette smokers benefit from this xD
Yes.
