In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

There is so much to learn from her pauses, her timing. She's able to be at peace with silence. It also helps her communicate much better to slow down. It's like she is in touch with a natural energy flow so many of us are disconnected from. This is beautiful.

I watch this every time I have a panic attack. Truly life changing.

“Happiness and unhappines are states of mind and therefore their real causes cannot be found outside the mind”
-
I have an awakening when she said “stop blaming others for your unhappiness”. She is right. If we are happy inside, no matter the outside world how bad it is, we will still have a peaceful mind. On the other hand, if we have a war inside, no matter how many beautiful people we meet in our life, how lovely our surrounding is, we will not notice the good.

Happiness is a choice. Buddhism is a beautiful blend of spirituality and psychology, and she teaches it with a peaceful, loving spirit. Love the meditation at the end.
