- Emotions don’t happen to you. They are made by your predictive brain, in specific situations: a brain that feels affect and makes concepts absorbed from your life experience while conversing with your body + the world around you.
This cinematic lecture by Professor Lisa Feldman Barrett is based off her book of the same name. If you'd like create a cinelect of your own, contact us at www.flowcs.com

This is what I call a well-made lecture.
I loved the part where people from around the world talked about emotions and how they express them. This reminded me of a beautiful book I read a while ago: “Emotional Alchemy allows us to turn pain into wisdom, fear into courage, and sadness into compassion.’’- Andrew Kenneth Fretwell (Emotional Alchemy the Love and Freedom Hidden within Painful Feelings)
Nicely done.

Quick toc is useful with me thank you so mush sir
Jesus Christ. I discovered your work recently, I was diving and diving in different psychological theories.
For many reasons, I felt like they were either innacurate, incomplete or flat out unscientific (polyvagal theory for example).
I bought all your books, I am reading also your blog, and I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart as your works are not only revolutionary but they are completely changing the way I see and view things.
You are one hell of a scientist and I will do everything I can at my humble level to diffuse, and share this knowledge.
Thank you Lisa Feldman barett you are badass. 😊
I feel the same.
What still puzzles me is this: She explains how the brain predicts and categorises differently depending on the context, but she doesn't quite explain why the body interoception is different in those different circumstances. E.g. I can understand why the stomach might be growling when it is noon time, but why is the stomach giving out funny sensations before a big talk, if we haven't yet labelled it as "nervousness"?
Such a brilliant production featuring one of the most brilliant scientists of our day.
The stories we tell ourselves transform sensations into emotions. There are many aspects of meditation/Eastern philosophy that resonate.
What I am curious is this: the implications of truly healing (and the arduous journey) from severe early childhood trauma - based on these very scientific facts Lisa presents!
a superb video! A perfect one to augment discussions of emotions with friends and colleagues with
When I see such a video my predictions lead me only to the word "grateful" Thank you so much for this!
What a beautiful and profound video!
I will be watching this with my kids and husband this weekend! Thank you Dr Lisa!! Finally something for the whole family…. Your work has made me wish I had known about this before my sports career finished!
Thank you. This is really powerful. So beautifully and clearly presenting important research. Hope it gets the wide audience it deserves.
🙏 madam, for making such a great video for humanity.
Kudos to the editor, I know how intricate this editing took
Great video. I love your perspective. Something always felt off about every cause and effect explanation. This is the kind of revolutionary thinking that makes sense to me. This, like so many other things in biology, is self-organizing. It's kind of terrifying to think that emotions are automatic. We think of cells as moving things around automatically. Humans, like cells, are undergoing automatic processes too? Is anything not automatic? I'd like to believe so, but I'm still searching for that answer. PS: I was shown this video for a neuropsychology class.
Very informative and insightful. It is so helpful to understand why we feel the way we feel. I can see how this knowledge can help me improve the quality of my experiences in this world, and particularly my interaction with others.
It is wonderful video , It is how emotion was created
Thank you so much! Great work.
The way I model emotions is that they are 2D level consciousness, where we're able to model the line between our own current state and goal state, but also the current and goal state line for another individual (animal, vegetable, mineral, etc.), simultaneously, so we can see the shape of our relationship, and seek solutions that exist within that space for helping us both get what we want. You could say that it's my affect + your affect.
Not all humans have the capacity to do this well/fully. Some will only be able to measure the current state of one or both individuals. And much of the time even those who do have the full ability can't do it due to compromises in their health (not being able to get their needs met consistently). So a lot of the time, even with us emotional animals, we don't really have especially useful emotions that reflect the real dimensionality of our interactions with ourselves and others. But when we are "in tune" with our own body and the body of another, then we can have very useful emotions that meaningfully guide us in solving problems for ourselves and our companion.
What an incredible gift this video is.
Love it! Amazing! I have read both books, and this video is a great summary to solidify the concepts.
May you send me the two books that you have read
The girl in this video is just making me fire all of my mirror-neurons! So perfect!
What a great video! Beatiful work explaining what the constructive theory of emotions claims. I would like many people to see it to undo conceptual errors, and create a more communicative and compassionate world.
I think it makes for a more heartless world .
Great lecture! Thank you so much!
Amazing video, thanks for making it!
Thanks for this documentary.
Thank you for what I experienced as a very helpfull lecture!
Amazing video!
I love this!!
Excelente! Muchas gracias :)
This is so good, thanks
Wonderful. For some reason eye get everything she's explaining. 💛👌
Brilliant! Thank you
Wonderful!
AMAZING!
Just wow
You did a great job! I know it took a lot of time to do it. I hope it’s not your last video! I subscribed
fantastic video!
Thanks for the lecture.really illuminating. If this knowledge spreads world will be more peaceful and happy place of joy.
This is excelent! Why only one lecture? Are you planning on making any more of them any time soon?
Amazing video perhabs everybody should have a watch!
Thank you 🙏🏼
As is your book, you lecture is excellent and quite thorough. I'd like to add something to consider--emotions are behaviors, physical movement (from micro to macro) and externalize (e) through movement (motion) the concepts based on predictions based on affect by the brain which are created from the sensations a body experiences from outside and inside the body. A simple experiment to emphasize this: simply ask the corners of your lips to move toward your ears (you don't necessarily need to do the larger movement--the intention to move is usually plenty). As your body feels this movement (in this case, proprioception primarily) what prediction and, therefore affect and then concept do you experience? Different people which describe this differently (prior experience, language, culture all play a part) but it is usually something in the general realm of pleasant, joy, happy, etc. I would love to have more of a discussion about this -- that we 'do' emotions and the body feels sensations. Labels (concepts) are created cognitively. Cognition is too slow for moment to moment predictions and reacting to the environment especially in times of high need.
Thank You
Video: silent film clip
Me: “WE WILL WE WILL ROCK YOU!” 🤣😂🤣
Amazing!!! what a marvel
Wow this so so good
Thank you ❤
we even make lines between you and me , which is the root cause of all suffering , when in reality there are no lines between colours , or anything
thank you
This is fantastic. Will use this one in a college course I teach. Is there, by chance, a written transcript, so that I can have students watch at home and discuss in class via the transcript?
Thanks
Go on guys make more videos. You are good.
Gratitude 🤍💗✨
How do we know that predictions are based on affect? Surely we could experience many different affectations in the same moment. Is it not our thinking that determines which physical affect we feel? It feels far too tidy to say affect kicks our predictive brain into gear which then creates an emotional response based on prior concepts.
What is the proof of that?
How can we know that it is the affect that sets the mind in motion? If the mind is constantly firing, could it not be any thought that escapes from this maelstrom that creates the emotion? I understand that the mind can feel at peace if placed in certain environmental conditions, and made to be in distress based on environmental conditions, but without the concept of distress or peace, do either exist?
Can you disprove the effect of affect? Does it not beg the question of why affect?
Is affect not just another form of thinking? For instance, if an unpleasant affect can create both a positive or negative emotion based on prediction and conceptualisation, how can we say the affect was unpleasant? Why are pleasantness and energy not emotions? Have we not transformed them into concepts and thereby emotions? Are they both? What is the neurological difference between an "affective" firing and a predictive firing?
Maravilhoso video!
Well done. It explains everything why i am so emotional. I have huge expectations in my life that is nearly impossible but i tried to make it happen. Look at my profile picture and see what i want to become because expectations are the primary reason why i am suck at everything. Well explained.
Sorry for my bad grammer, by the way....☺☺☺☺☺☺
How do you determine whether affect is real? Are there people that don't respond to the stimuli in the lab? What is the barrier for being affected? If you have to focus the mind on a specific 'affectation' are you not triggering the conceptual and/or predictive mind? Could affect merely be unconscious prediction and/or conceptualisation? I guess what I'm asking is, are these three ingredients of emotion not all variations of thoughts?
Is this where we are having Q & A?
What happens when you don’t get the sensations from the brain while the muted scenes?
My brain doesn’t fill in the gaps of sound or tastes when I saw the moments ..
Paul Ekman is wrong? The Dalai Lama also? I always suspected it
What about gut feelings and intuitions?
You can't control your emotions, you can only control how you react of your emotions.

Waooo ❤️❤️
I feel like this lecture was conceived specifically to justify Amber Heard facial expressions during the hearings.
Obviously I'm jocking, really great material. Prediction function is also behind the mechanics of optical illusions. So yeah, what we feel we know, can be just a wrong decoding, an illusion.
10:57 emotions = it’s all past prediction
34:10 why emotion important? Curious science? I can get hurt from wrong emotions and other can hurt by emotions , just like the judge make guess of how defendant feel could be incorrectly , lead to fair trial. Guilty ppl free, inncocent ppl go to jail or unalive h themselve
36:10 predicting error. I have biased that my prediction Always right
36:47 priors - experience might not be equal to New experience
37:39 words choice sensitive- my brain only perceive? Same with your brain. “We know what ppl thinkink!” . “You sounds angry””are you angry “”I feel angry right now” instead of “ my husband is an a*hole”
How did you find it? I learned too much and I liked it. It turns out that science can be fun too. :D
How about analysing the brain (that we are doing here)? Is the brain predicting this analyses? Feldman is talking about is *conditioning,* which was known to people 2500+ years ago - for example, Buddhist teachings talk about how our past conditioning (along with our attachments) affects (colors) our present moment experiences, and how this process can be seen through mindfulness, etc. Also, the solution she gives around @33mins (change the situation) is too simple - if someone insulted you, chances are you would be ruminating constantly even if you changed the situation. By practising mindfulness however we can move out of the turmoil that rumination adds to that situation, and also see beyond this event (i.e., develop wisdom). I also don't think it is necessary to bring the organ 'brain' into these explanations.
🤔
Milt Q. Llama III? What's the Holy Grail?
our predictions are controlled by movies, songs and music--that's why they are used to control our emotions and behaviours; the reason why the celebs are called influencers because what they say or do affect our emotions.
and also advertisements and food
11:41, bro is filling his free water cup with diet coke. smh
Lisa is on Big Thimk now?
I predict this comment will get 100 likes so im saying love you all
Ive got news for you 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Not true Paul ekmann long term data says this isn’t true wrong info
Actually in her book she reference to a lot of comparative experiments and data that prof that ekmans data are wrong. The same if you go to the google academy and look at her science articles.
똥은 방 안에 있으면 오물이 되고, 밭에 있으면 거름이된다.
A lot of these examples are awfully presumptuous. She’s just assuming that your brain is doing all this stuff but there is no way to test it.
