So I wanna talk about, again, two aspects within emotion.
現在我要從兩個方面談情感
The first, gradual change. The Second, more acute change.
首先,是漸進式變化,之后,是突發式變化
The gradual change is mindful meditation.
漸進式變化是一種專注冥想
Mindful meditation is arguably the most powerful intervention for bringing about calm and equanimity.
專注冥想可以帶來安寧沉靜,被認為是最有效的療法
A lot of research on it. We're gonna spend a whole week talking about it.
有很多與其相關的研究。我們之后會用一周的時間講專注冥想
Today what I wanna do is just to introduce it, the basic, the foundation of the spiral of mindfulness.
今天我只想做一個簡單的介紹,講一下專注力的螺旋曲線
Jon Kabatt-Zin who in many ways, is responsible for bringing serious research into this realm. He along with people like
從許多方面來說喬恩·卡巴特·辛在這個學科領域做了很多重要的研究,他和另外一些科學家

Tara Bennett-Goleman, people like Herbert Benson from the medical school here,
包括貝塔拉·內特-戈爾曼和哈佛醫學院的
brought serious research to this Herbert Benson what was considered a mystical field.
一起在這個被認為很神秘的學科領域里做了很多重要研究
Cultivating mindfulness can lead to the discovery of deep realms of relaxation, calmness and insight within yourself.
對專注力的培養可以引領我們發現身心紓緩,自身寧靜和洞察力的最高深的境界
The path to it in any moment lies no farther than your own body and mind and your own breathing.
通向這個境界的路徑就在你的體內,腦中,和你自己的呼吸里
This is the amazing thing about mindfulness. The result that you'll see that I'll talk about when we talk about research, quite literally mind-boggling.
這就是專注力的奇妙之處,當我們講到這些研究的時候,你們會看到那些研究結果是多么令人難以置信
I mean they change the way our mind works, transform our brain just by focusing on the breath, by focusing on parts of our body, by being present.
它們僅僅通過專注于呼吸和身體的某個部位,通過親臨現場改變了我們的思維方式,改造了我們的大腦
"All of us have the capacity to be mindful. All it involves is cultivating our ability to pay attention in the present moment."
"所有人都有專注的能力,關鍵在于開發我們在此時此刻全神貫注的能力"
