From Ted Talks Daily: The Benefits Of Not Being A Jerk To Yourself

Over deze aflevering

<p>We're introducing you to the <a href= "https://www.ted.com/podcasts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target= "_blank">Ted Talks Daily</a> podcast, with an episode featuring our own Dan Harris. Here's his TED Talk, "The Benefits Of Not Being A Jerk To Yourself."</p> <p>After over two decades as an anchor for ABC News, an on-air panic attack sent Dan Harris's life in a new direction: he became a dedicated meditator and, to some, even a guru. But then an anonymous survey of his family, friends and colleagues turned up some brutal feedback -- he was still kind of a jerk. In a wise, funny talk, he shares his years-long quest to improve his relationships with everyone (starting with himself) and explains the science behind loving-kindness meditation, and how it can boost your resiliency, quiet your inner critic and simply make you more pleasant to be around.</p>
