Dr. Sará King & Dr. Dan Siegel | The Neuroscience of Belonging | Point of Relation Podcast

Thomas is joined by neuroscientist, education philosopher, and social entrepreneur Dr. Sará King, and clinical professor of psychiatry, co-director of the Mindful Awareness Research Center at UCLA, and Executive Director of the Mindsight Institute Dr. Dan Siegel.
They discuss the concept of Intrapersonal Neurobiology - an interdisciplinary approach to understanding how our minds create our experiences, with an emphasis on the benefits of what Dr. Siegel refers to as “self-expanding emotions” - empathy, compassion, gratitude, and awe.
They dive deep into the idea of the collective nervous system, how we can learn to experience it, and how that can help us shift from defining the self as a solo entity to understanding humanity as fundamentally interconnected. In doing this, Dr. King and Dr. Siegel posit that we can create a stronger sense of belonging, increase our sustainability, and assist in the evolution of the planet instead of its destruction.

This was really lovely. Thank you. As Dan was speaking of MWe and intraconnected... I was thinking of Thich Nhat Hanh's concept and contemplation practice of "interbeing" that is another lovely pointer to living compassionately in awareness of the continually relational, continually fluid, continually emerging, creative nature of life.

Thank you so much Thomas I really appreciate you bringing up this topic. Also your guests from two different backgrounds! It’s amazing how much shame we carry and is it hurts us. I see the different communities but I come from east Africa. I noticed the children experience shame in many ways One-way experience shame if their parents don’t speak English, they don’t want to be seen with that parent! And I don’t know the impact of that for the child and the parents that is one example of this immigrant communities we haven’t looked through! I’m so grateful for listening to you guys this for myself for my family and people around me !
