10 years ago in this talk: At 13'46", Dr. Siegel says, "Learning is a profoundly social experience. Just throwing something up on the internet and these sound bites that we've heard about doesn't make for deep learning...". This resonates with me. But now, 10 years later, where are we? We have gone in the opposite direction. How much deep learning is going on? I'd love to hear Dr. Siegel comment on this now. I think we are losing our capacity to maintain attention in social settings and are becoming more and more isolated, settling for inferior learning experiences. There is no substitute for human connection. We have evolved as social beings. Now we get more computer screens and less "live" small group experiences. We are becoming LESS TOLERANT. We are devolving. This frightens me as primitive brain regions rein Supreme under these conditions. This means violence, aggressive verbal exchanges, and over all Mayhem
We feel therefore we learn and we learn to solve problems not to decorate our memories. And we solve problems through scepticism, curiosity, creativity, innovations, inventions, entrepreneur ship(social, political economic and business entrepreneur ship) and all solutions are decidable else they are not solutions at all
I wonder about one thing he says in this excellent video. If impulse speed in a myelinated neuron is 100 times faster (actually, even faster than that according to more recent findings) and neural recovery speed is 30 times after, does that mean the a myelinated neuron passes on information 3000 (100 x 30) times faster, or is it still 100?
Dan Siegel has gone to enormous lengths to explain how healthy or sane relationships are working when shared positive aspects of mind, brain and nervous system are operating optimally and things are going smoothly. However, that’s not reflective of what generally happens in a society that is conditioned to be competitive in almost every interrelated perspective of daily life. Even from the beginning of the formation of a personal self image there is strong evidence of the effects of programming from the perspective of winning/losing desires. So the development of the so-called uniquely individual consciousness is promoted as the way to make something of yourself even if that means disputation with others (intimate or otherwise), it doesn’t necessarily matter so long as you are the winner. So that’s how the social environment is structured and embellished through family engagement, educational instruction, religious teachings, politics, business, sports and so on and on. Obviously, the conditioned psyche is cultivated along lines not compatible with the lovely picture Dr Siegel is promoting. The question then is how can the integration triumph over the winner only mentality?
There can be no mind activity without a brain. No doubt relationships change the brain, admitting though that those two or more brains in connection are sane. If one circuit is compromised, certain kinds of communication are compromised as well.
He could do so much in the area of personality disorders and attachment. Treat the entire family, not just the patient. Love his work!

Fabulous...love this video.
OUTSTANDING!
I’m so fascinated by this but the delivery is so slow. Does anyone have anymore more recent links on this subject?

Brilliant!👏👏👏🙂
You are amazing! I absolutely love your videos 🌹🌹🌹
Intriguing ideas
Interesting how this otherwise insightful talk didn't directly address or explain social emotion as such, as its own title promised
