Speaking about breathing is one of the most counterintuitive subjects

情態副詞

轉承詞

because normally people don't think about it

as we don't think about blinking our eyes, digesting our food.

These are not things we think you need to work on,

they just occur from the autonomic nervous system.

because there are also ways to breathe intentionally;

certain patterns of breathing that change how you feel internally.

I wouldn't travel the world teaching breath-work

if it were even just simply to help people relax.

The reason I travel to teach people how to breathe

in a digitally-obsessed, escape-based society as you know.

and there seems to be a big push to accept it;

If you look at studies on the level of happiness now,

We should be ecstatic; we have a rectangle in our pocket

that has access to all the world's knowledge,

that has any entertainment you'd possibly want,

The World Health Organization has stated that by 2020, worldwide,

depression and anxiety will be the number one disability;

that's only four and a half years from now.

In the United States, 25% of women are now taking

antidepressant medication, anti-anxiety medication, or both;

that sleep dysfunction is now at an epidemic level.

Again, this is not an American problem, this is a global problem.

>From Beijing to Berlin to Tel Aviv to Cape Town, it's the same problem.

and one of the things is to create a daily practice of breath-work

which is free, once you learn it, and has no side effects,

unlike a lot of the medications we see on television

where you see people wearing white, running down the beach

with billowing white fabric over their head,

laughing, with the dogs chasing them, always a Golden Labrador

including bleeding from the eyes, coma, permanent impotence, and things like that.

because yes, we need a sustainable world,

When I deal with executives - I talk to groups of executives, CEOs,

marketing people, and even corporations; the entire corporation -

because most of them say they can't sleep, they have panic attacks,

they are chronically depressed, they get flus and colds all the time;

When I privately meet with the CEOs, they say the same thing;

they don't want to admit it in front of their workers,

but the CEOs complain about exactly the same things.

People feel alone more than they've ever felt in their life.

because supposedly, we're all connected now,

through the Internet, through social media,

Or are we actually less connected at a deep level?

that we like having these tremendous kitchens.

we host people, 50%, approximately, less than ten years ago.

So we have these fantastic kitchens, and we just use the microwave.

Intimacy is something we need to develop again,

and the only way you can do it is to actually be in people's presence,

and this is one of the powers of TED talks

where we actually get together in person again.

Videos are great, you can learn from them - I learn from them -

as looking into someone's eyes and hearing their voice.

We determine whether or not we can trust people

If you're going to hire a babysitter, you want to meet the person,

So, for those of you who are doing well, I want to ask you a question:

This is a question that is very far-reaching,

if we were very honest with ourselves, we'd realize,

I wouldn't teach my children to live the way I am.

I wouldn't say, "Go to the best school, get a great job;

but live on sleep medication and anti-anxiety drugs.

That's the path I want you to take son," or daughter.

it's not what we want to teach our children,
