Genuine help for people who tend to do negative self-talk. This book makes you understand what factors are important for your own happiness and what you can get rid of in order to be emotionally strong. I read it over and over so that I can apply what the book teaches to my everyday life. I also got this sense that I’m communicating with the author through the author’s personal experiences. It’s definitely worth a purchase.

I am retired and live alone. I'm never lonely. I lost my driver's license due to failing eyesight so I can no longer flit over to a friend's house. My son is attentive and generous to me. He solved the problem of my getting to the grocery store (or anywhere) with Uber -- which he pays for! He takes me to our favorite Chinese restaurant for lunch, and once in a while to a fine restaurant for dinner. I keep in touch with friends and relatives who live in other states with emails and phone calls. It's all good! Living alone means I can eat what I want when I want. I can stay up until the wee hours watching a great old movie or reading a good book

What a Guy

“LONELIENESS: Creates a deep physiological wound, one which distorts our perceptions and scrambles our thinking. It makes us believe that those around us care much less than they actually do. It makes us really afraid to reach out; why set yourself up for rejection and heartache, when your heart is already aching more than you can stand” …. “LONELIENESS is defined purely subjectively; it depends solely at whether you feel emotionally or socially disconnected from those around you.” WOW, WOW, WOW!!!! THIS has been the missing link is my journey!!!!! Knowledge is VERY powerful!

This is what ted talks want to be like when they grow up

I forwarded this to my family as a Christmas present. I’ll rewatch it myself.

This lack of attention to our psychological well being has to be the reason so many people suffer from mental illness and addiction. I have PTSD, clinical depression and anxiety. I am a recovering addict as well. I have a masters in mental health counseling (definitely not a doctor, lol). I have been a victim of many types of abuse in the past and I did some EMDR for my PTSD (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) it helped drastically with my PTSD, but I would t say I'm "back to normal". I still can't be woken up in certain ways without going into "fight or flight". My emotional struggles have never been fewer like as physical problem would be, however they have kept me from normally functioning for a deep depressive and addiction episode for about 3 years. I had lost hope. The lies in my mind had taken over. Now I am rebuilding my life. Actively involved in AA and NA and I will get licensed to start my career as a therapist when I have enough sober time and I am emotionally healthy enough. It's okay though, because I am on the way back up!! The battle of my mind has been the most difficult struggle of my life. Thanks for the video!!! 😊

You are a real doctor! One of the best Ted talks I've ever watched. Thanks for the knowledge.

A simple LIKE is just NOT enough. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for delivering a wonderful speech!

What a brilliant talk ! Now, unless someone tells you about such ideas, you will never figure this out ! Why is this not part of a basic education, begining in pre-school, or kindergarten?

I remember a time way back in high school when my drama teacher had the class write critiques of each student's performance in some kind of soliloquy with blocking we had to do. I performed poorly and I knew it. I wasn't at all prepared, I may even have smoked pot before class, to boot. At the end of my terrible performance I was handed a stack of notes. I opened one - it was scathing. I decided to throw the rest in the trash and save myself the emotional pain. I was only 15. I have no idea where that kind of emotional strength came from.

There isn't a Band-Aid to fix small failures or even big ones, and the psychological effect that come with them. Its quite expensive to treat ur psychological hygiene (which shouldn't be the case) because everyone needs help. If u have emotional health issues u are already stained in America. They should teach emotional health in schools and everywhere honestly. I loved this speech 😍

Should start at home from year 1 onward. Parents need to teach this to their kids. And the best and possibly unique way is by modelling it. So to start with, parents need to know why and how to do it, and become good at practicing it.

Guy, this was a great talk. The key takeaway I got was "A different kind of favoritism - how much more we value the body than we do the mind." That is true, I have seen physically fit, almost physically perfect athletes walk around with emotional infections, gaping holes in their souls almost... probably due to this lack of emotional hygiene you discuss. I myself have favored the physical, almost completely neglecting the emotional. Your work will shed awareness on this important topic. Who cares about anti-aging and extending the length of our lives, if we're miserable?!?!

I've listened to an enormous number of TED Talk presentations and this has been the most affective and outstanding one. The content, the stories, the clarity, the purpose were all sharp as a blade. His humour in his stories and how he delivered his humour... I would pay for it. Guy Winch, if you read this I want you to know. YOU ARE EV'ER'RI'THIN'K!! 😊

Perfect balance on all fronts, plus a love that only few possess naturally.

I have some real emotional hygiene to take care of Guy Winch. This video made me realize that. And so many others need the same. Thank you so much. Awesome.

"It's time to close the gap between our physical and psychological health" So true. Modern culture definitely needs to close this gap.

Very enlightening and encouraging. As a mother, I witness children being told "what not to do", instead of "what to do" when it comes to emotions and social interaction simply because we adults may not understand what to do ourselves. This presentation has convinced me to invest in teaching myself and my family about emotional hygiene. I like the practical facts on how to make changes for the better.

I've watched plenty of TedX talks, this is up there as one of the best, probably THE best on mental well being.

Important points that he brought up:: * Emotional awareness. * Loneliness won't just make you miserable, it will kill you. Chronic loneliness increases likelihood of early death by 14%. * Loneliness = subjective, how well you feel emotionally or socially connected from those around you. * Loneliness distorts your perception. Failure as well. * Break bad psychological habits. Interrupt negative pattern, e.g. circular thinking, obsession, rumination.... Take action. Shift your behavior. Do something. * You can't believe you can't succeed. You must fight the feeling of helplessness.

EQ is as important as IQ and even more so.

This was great. The "Why" was very powerful. It just needs a "How".

we were thought to think about ourselves the way we do. If what you were taught, does not serve you anymore: 1. find teachers that will reflect what you secretly know about yourself 2. let go of your old teachers even if they guilt trip you or you guilt trip yourself (we are not indispensable) 3. allow yourself to grief the loss (as long as you need not matter what) 4. forgive yourself for having been the perpetrator of your relationships, your thoughts and your believes 5. write, and I mean write literally, yourself in to who you wish to be and take daily micro action in that direction. 6 and of course, with fellowship, prayer and meditation. It's the practice of shifting consciousness. Circumstances don't matter, our perception of ourselves does.

@birdyberth

And how do we know if what we were taught doesn't serve us anymore, if our sense of self depends only on our perceptions? Isn't it magical thinking? It's like as if the perception of ourselves can only change after the consciousness shift. Cause and effect are hard to replace in this context, though. Like you can change because you have already changed inside, you were just not still conscious of that.

Thank you TED and Dr Guy Winch. I believe beside being a great psychologist, you could also become a great narrator.

As a member of an anonymous program, having worked the 12 steps and following the suggestions of the program...it’s almost the exact same thing Guy is talking about. I mean you can get the same positive results. We call it isolation instead of loneliness. We say internal unmanageability for believing untrue things about ourselves. It’s too much to explain here, but if you need extra help with the suggestions Guy has offered. I promise a 12 step program, worked to the best of you ability will fix you!

Thank you. I struggle daily with emotional issues that have dogged me for what feels my entire life. I found myself focus in on the sound of your calm voice and felt your words reach inside my muddled head and in some small way, something has shifted. I hope this is the beginning of something life changing. I will keep hold of these new feelings and see where they take me.

Ted Talks are the most inspiring , uplifting , and encouraging messages from awesome speakers thinkers and survivers THANKYOU

Best TedTalk EVER. Great narrative, timing, and content.

Dr. Winch, congratulations on your brother's health. I almost lost a brother I am very close, too and his survival was the best gift I have received in life so far.

Woke up this morning feeling down. This is exactly what I needed was a reminder to mind my thoughts.

Sir, this might have just changed my life

Best Ted Talk I have ever seen! Thank you, DOCTOR Winch!

Very interesting. So true. I am so happy with myself because I have already been practicing what you say. I am 100 per cent happy on my own. My interests are to dress nice most times and keep planning more holidays. So therapeutic. The loneliest I have ever felt was when I was in a relationship. Thank you.

Oh, my dear Mr Winch. What certain truth you speak. I wish there was a deeper/better expression than just thankyou, for your learning, your wisdom, your effort and your sharing. I was a primary school teacher in Australia in the years 1986 -1995, I had many children in my class with sad, difficult and often very damaging problems. Obviously, they frequently also had serious behaviour issues and problems expressing their emotions appropriately. Quite often, when I could see it was needed, I left my normal lesson plan and took the 'deviation' to talk about feelings, stirred the empathy that they could develop for each other, reassured them that their emotions were to be felt, that they could talk about problems etc and many other things. I started a group for children who felt isolated, or whose parents were divorcing, or who were grieving for somebody. I was amazed at how much those children responded. Their behaviour calmed, their achievements increased and I don't value the academic more than the personal achievments here, like being brave enough to speak up for yourself or another person. To admit to feeling fear, sadness, loneliness, anger etc. I was always a very popular teacher with students and parents, but of course not with those in higher authority, (the school principle) some colleagues etc, maybe they were afraid or jealous of my popularity or abilities with difficult children. Now, in my mid-fifties and living with my husband and younger son in Germany, I feel lonely, extremely unconfident, lost, unvalued and seriously isolated. I agree with all you have said. Hearing you has reminded me that I can change, begin afresh, learn, reach out and try again to be myself. Thankyou for being an inspiration, I really need one!

I like listening to TED Talks while reading the comments because I can learn so much more with your thoughts too as much as listening to the video itself

I feel like this is just the introduction. I’m ready for the part about HOW to do that.

Thank you Guy. Everything you spoke of is very true. When my thoughts are negative or confused, I have to fight really hard to do one thing all the way through... even if it is washing a coffee cup. I will wash it, dry it, and put it away. That is one positive thing I have done all the way through. This almost always will lead me to do one more positive thing... and so on. Fighting negative thinking IS a battle... and you are correct to suggest that one should fight it by a positive action... no matter how small... because, at least for me, that will lead to another healthy thought or action.

Listening for second time in 2019. Thank you, Guy Winch for reminding me of a time I knew this well, but then forgot.

A great TED and I learned so much in such a little time. And I am very happy his brother is OK and could recover from this illness. Thank you for sharing this wise words.

How fortunate that these twins felt such union. How blessed are they and what a wonderful example.

if we all imagined the things we say to ourselves as someone else saying that to a loved one/good friend, we would be apalled. loved this talk!

I've been watching Ted talks for years but this is truly the most powerful talk so far. It just pointed out my problem, I was always reluctant to reach out due to the apprehension of rejection, constantly unstable propensity to trust to people around. I must change these. thank you so much for you talk!

I am so thankful for this talk! I feel that I learned a lot of this on my own and from mentors, but it is not talked about enough! Failure and lowered self-esteem kills success. It's so disappointing to see so many people give up on their dreams because of their fear of failure. Thanks for the 2 minute distraction tip. Guy- you are a captivating public speaker.

I wish we all learned what we could put in our emotional toolkits to help us, when we were kids - AND - at work, we refreshed that toolkit with some tools provided by the organization too.

"Emotional Bleeding" ..... Sharp Word! .... Thumbs Up ...... Guy!

This is just what I needed! I listened to this about 4-5 times tonight after having a rough evening. Thank you!

I'm a student who has not graduated until now, I'm not confident because of my tardiness. I was afraid to start, and I saw this video. I open my laptop, and it starts again. Thanks for the video.

Wise words!!! Thank you for patiently explaining the significance of emotional hygiene.

This was great! a lot of times you do just beat up yourself and i think this talk is mostly addressing those cases. for me however, i went through a period of depression but i think it was good my mind responded that way. i was spoiled, self centered, and lazy. i think that depression helped to make a major change in the way i am. i knew what i wanted to be but i didnt have the motivation, until i felt miserable and i had to climb out of that. (obviously there are bigger problems out there). I think being overly negative over nothing is bad but a lot of our emotional responses are good and our actions are what need to change. (like sometimes i would emotionally beat myself up but i deserved it because for me to be happy with myself i needed to change for the better)

I had/have a Problem with a specific thought about living in a Simulation that made me feel extremely lonely and sad. This thesis isnt true or false, and therefore not verified. But the possibility that it is real made me think that everything is fake and I slowly began to derealize. Ruminating about this scenario and the emotions towards my Family and others which would be fake in this case, let me burst into tears a lot of times. But this video gave me so much motivation to just believe and fight for myself. I thank you so much

our inner dialogue is reflective of the dialogue of the outside world. Inner compassion would be much easier with an outword environment of compassion.

Modestly brilliant and yet so vital! Thank you for your sympathetic message! Be great if you set up practice in Melbourne Australia Thanks again!

This will be one special Ted Talk I will be showing my Arbonne team! It is very articulate and helpful (love your calming voice too). I have had to fight many of these issues over the years, liking myself as well as taking care of me has been my top priority for many years. Sadly I have also had to drop negative people from my life because I would not allow them to 'help' tear me down. I will be looking for more of your talks. Thank you very much, Manuela

Yes man it's right when we fail at something we get used to it... even though we know we could pass we repeat the same mistakes thinking that I won't be able to achive it and failure is my thing

One of the best TED TALK thus far I have watched.

This was fabulous. Great content from a very engaging speaker. I will definitely be reading his books!

Beautiful! Einer meiner Lieblings-Ted-Talks

In a world in flux and turmoil and so much emotional pain and suffering there is a need for his message of internal reflection and redirection of ones energy in thoughts of uplifting instead of self punishing. Great message, thank you.

The world would be so much better if we practiced psychological higiene. I'm starting to do it because I FIRMLY BELIEVE that a beautiful word can come out of this and I hope you, reading this, do it too.

one of the best talks i've listened to. Great speech, great man ! thank you very much :-)
