Lisa Feldman Barrett: 情绪并非由一组固定不变的生理、心理和行为模式构成,而是大脑根据过往经验和当前情境创造出的不同实例。不存在任何情绪都具有普遍性的生理特征,也不存在特定情绪专属的神经回路。情绪如同思维一样,是大脑根据不同信息对当下情境进行解读的结果。情绪的多样性是其正常特征,大脑会根据情境创造出最有效的应对方式。压抑情绪并不会导致负面后果,关键在于平衡身体能量的收支。充足的睡眠、规律的运动、良好的社交关系等有助于维持身体能量的平衡,预防疾病。在帮助他人应对情绪时,首先要弄清楚他们需要的是共情还是解决方案。提供共情支持的方式包括给予拥抱、倾听、同理性回应等。深呼吸练习有助于调节神经系统,缓解情绪压力。不存在核心情绪或普遍性情绪,情绪的体验是基于个体差异和文化背景的。爱并非情绪,而是大脑对情境和感受的解读结果。控制情绪并非指压抑情绪,而是指通过练习来提升自身能力,从而更好地应对情绪。尝试从他人的角度看待问题有助于更客观地理解现实。培养敬畏感有助于提升对自身局限性的认知,从而缓解压力。 Shane Parrish: 对信息的喜爱或厌恶往往反映了我们内心深处的信念。在做出决定之前,先冷静思考,有助于做出更好的选择。
