66s thank you
78s is
143s is
164s so we start at 10
167s or
175s okay
179s thank you
223s is
247s ready
249s okay
251s so hi everyone
253s and welcome to i'm awesome and i'm going
255s to this presentation
258s so yeah like
259s we know who we are here
262s so actually we're going to be talking
264s about
265s the incoming communities to the next
267s level sorry in advance so first of all
270s who am i
272s so the name is benjamin rushing you can
273s also find me under ben the canadian
277s i'm the executor of no psychiat alliance
279s sorry in advance
281s i'm also one of the executors of the red
284s modest coalition
286s i'm the organizer of eve montreal
290s and i'm also
291s a real life biologist
294s plus i'm also presenting myself for
296s csm17
299s so let's continue
300s so here's how we're gonna do it
303s so how do we take communities to the
306s next level
308s we're gonna speak about some biological
310s concepts
311s then a few
313s physiological concepts how can we
315s increase our well-being
318s playing eve
320s some
321s like some slide on positive psychology
324s and about respect then just to be sure
326s what we call
328s communities
329s it
330s might be your corporation your alliance
333s but also your family your workplace and
336s much more
339s to start off since we got
342s the la creme de la creme here
345s playing eve online we're gonna start
348s with a reading exercise
350s so i'm gonna need you all
353s to read out loud what's gonna be like
356s showing here okay
358s you're ready
359s it's really simple everyone will be able
361s to do it
363s and here we go
365s ha
371s oh
375s [Laughter]
383s yeah that's good that's good
388s that's great that's great so i'm gonna
390s bring your attention here on how you
392s were like maybe looking at each other
394s looking for social like uh approval am i
397s doing this or is he just doing like a
400s fool of himself
402s i'm going back to that in a few slides
406s so let's dive into the science first of
408s all
409s how social
411s are humans
413s to answer that question we're going to
415s be looking at brains
417s and more specifically the prefrontal
419s cortex
420s of the brain because it's the one
423s responsible for higher thinking
427s personal expression
429s social behavior
431s like the adjustment to your behavior to
434s the
435s environment and much more
438s so those are the things that you need to
440s remember throughout the presentation
444s so let's first start with two
448s that we
449s know so the cat and dog
451s so prefrontal cortex social like social
454s recognition and stuff the dog from the
456s wolf
457s he lives in packs
459s so like the social recognition is really
461s important for him
462s as the cat a lot less
466s it's also the same part of this uh
468s like of the brain that is responsible
470s for higher thinking
473s some of you might be like cats or dog
475s horner and see that they are not using
478s all their potential
481s let's not go there
482s then after that we got well the chimp
485s see it's getting bigger
487s and what's actually interesting it's
489s when we get to human
491s it's really really big really developed
495s so
496s how social are human
500s a lot
502s let's keep it to the nervous system and
503s go into the autonomic nervous system so
506s the one that you don't control directly
509s there's two like two main sections in
511s this system
513s it's either
514s the parasympathetic nervous system when
516s you relax
518s and there's the other one where you're
519s not relaxed and you're stressed
522s let's start with the first one
524s so in the first one in the
526s parasympathetic nervous system
528s you're gonna be
530s like a releasing
533s uh sorry serotonin
536s so serotonin it's a neurotransmitter
540s okay it's involved in a lot of stuff so
542s thermoregulation a sarcasm cycle
546s some some water control much more if you
549s got a low level
551s of serotonin it might actually cause
553s anxiety
555s at higher level it is going to be
557s contributing to the feeling of happiness
560s and
561s well-being too much though like if you
564s got like a from medication uh some rare
567s genetic disease uh it's gonna
569s cause like a lot of behavioral changes
572s might be uh lethargy anxiety again um
577s some like disorientation confusion much
580s more
581s then you got
583s the acetosin
585s the acetosin it's um
588s it's
589s only it's mostly act on the lean muscle
591s of the uterus and the mammal glands but
593s also on trust
596s empathy
597s and also like generosity social
600s recognition
601s it decreases the fears
603s and help
605s recover from bad social interaction
608s plays a big role in sexuality
610s feeling of attachment
612s sexual arousal orgasms
615s some call it the happy or the love
618s hormone
620s um
621s and also well
623s we got some minus from the acid like the
626s esterson
628s it might lead actually to one wanted to
630s defend like the group that you're in
633s and lead to a
635s violent
637s behavior towards other groups
641s then you got the dopamine well
644s most people know this one so it's the
646s one involved in
648s uh like the reward system so how you're
651s learning and when you get dopamine you
654s want to get
655s what gave you dopamine in the past
659s so it's really it's really important to
661s know how you get this dopamine because
664s um
665s if you get it from let's say sugar
668s or cocaine that gave like a high peak of
671s dopamine
672s well after the high peak you go as low
675s on the other side
677s so like it disrupts completely
680s your natural
681s way to get your dopamine
684s so it means that you want more because
687s you have a deficit
689s hence addiction
691s don't do drugs
693s okay
696s then we're gonna pass on the other
697s section so sympathetic nervous system
700s when you're stressed
702s so we're gonna mostly be focusing on two
705s uh two hormones so cortisol and
707s adrenaline
709s cortisol like it's it's it's fine like
711s it's it raises the glucose make it
713s available to uh to use for your for your
716s system
717s but it also regulates uh protein lipid
721s and glucid in your metabolism while the
723s uh sympathetic nervous system is active
727s please others like other roles like
729s circuits in cycle with the melatonin and
730s such
732s but
733s let's focus on
734s really
736s what has to do with the sympathetic
737s nervous system
740s it can be bad if you are stressed for
742s too long creating osteoporosis
744s and
745s other like issues
748s uh it's it also
750s can help the immunitary response because
753s when you're stressed and yet you're
754s running for your life
756s your
756s body is does not care fighting cancer
760s so if you're always stressed your immune
762s system is not really performing
764s so
766s that that's not you to always be
768s stressed but i think that most people
769s know that
772s then adrenaline
774s is the stress answer that makes us ready
776s to attack or flee
778s it raise the the cardiac
781s the
782s frequency
784s the arterial pressure they like the
786s bronchus and the pupils it makes you
788s ready for a real intense physical effort
792s so those stress answers are good if
795s you're getting chased by a bear or such
800s but
801s stressing over a deadline
804s or presentation
805s it's not that helping but it still
808s happens
809s um actually the uh art in the sorry
815s the artwork medical school
817s actually found out that
819s stress is responsible for 90
822s of the consultation
825s when you combine stress
827s with loneliness
829s it becomes as bad for health
831s as smoking
833s so if you're already smoking well times
836s two
839s sorry
849s so remember the reading exercise
852s so
854s study has shown that laughing
856s or the anticipation of of laughing
860s actually makes you
862s into the parasympathetic nervous system
865s so that you can be at the top of your
867s game using
869s your prefertar cortex so yeah i profess
873s i purposefully put you in a state to be
876s able to listen so to what i'm giving you
879s here
882s let's okay so some psychological
884s concepts here
886s okay so gregariousness is basically the
889s uh like the measurement of like the
892s how social something is someone or an
895s animal or else
897s remember that we are social creators
901s and like as humans the social uh factor
905s is really important for us
907s like so much that we need it and there's
910s the hierarchy of needs
913s we need to belong to another group of
915s human
917s if not
918s well
919s it can lead to
920s loneliness
922s and if you were there yesterday for the
925s opening ceremony hillmark talked about
927s that about like ccp ghost friendship
929s machine
931s and how it worked
932s so basically like they use the maslov
935s pyramid
936s both of them yep
939s and it's it's a great model and it has
942s also been shown in the the last years
945s that not only those like those level
947s doesn't exist but it can actually
950s interact with one another so it's not
952s because it's above it doesn't have an
954s impact on the one below
957s so that you can actually fortify your
959s foundation and such
962s so later in the hildmart presentation
964s goes into
966s like the four
967s things that makes you enjoy spending
970s your times
972s oh actually here i just like the like
975s the the friendship uh
977s just going back sorry that's the like
979s different the friendship formula so it's
982s since say they explain it yesterday i
984s want to put much time into it but
986s proximity plus frequency restoration
989s plus intensity equal friendship
991s so you need to be close to the person
995s like frequently i end with a good
997s duration and intensity and the intensity
1000s section that's where eve is really good
1002s at
1003s and that's from friendship
1007s later in this presentation hildmars
1009s talks about the four key motivation to
1010s be happy spending your time
1013s so it might be an entrance act as like
1016s money
1017s uh it might be
1019s something that does do with your purpose
1020s so some doing something higher than
1023s yourself the mess like the the mastery
1026s of
1028s of scales or whatever
1030s and here autonomy so the desire to
1032s direct your own life
1034s so for the purpose of the of my
1035s presentation i'm gonna use synonyms
1039s so we keep in mind
1041s the friendship machine that is like the
1043s relationship
1045s we change that one for
1047s finding meanings
1048s accomplishment and engagement
1051s and since like
1054s formula are fun
1056s let's put those into a formula
1058s so engagement relationship meaning and
1060s accomplishment
1062s when we add
1064s positive emotion to that
1067s we get into the definition of what is
1070s the well-being
1072s by dr martin seligman
1075s so yeah
1077s eve has the power if we if we add
1079s positive emotion to it
1081s to directly affect your well-being
1085s that's something
1090s and that's actually what leads us to
1092s perma so positive emotion engagement
1095s relationship meaning and accomplishment
1099s so those five
1101s are the pillar
1102s that support your well-being
1105s okay
1106s so perma that can be measured like every
1110s single pillar can be measured
1113s so that's the the model that dr seligman
1116s actually uh showed
1119s the the model is great but
1121s the it has the disadvantages that it
1124s doesn't
1124s get you how well you're currently doing
1127s but if you ask the question how can i
1130s improve those well you can adjust your
1133s pillar so that you're
1135s like your well-being can be at the level
1138s that you want
1140s so since we only need to add posit like
1144s positive emotion to what has already
1145s been shown by
1147s uh hilmar and ccpgos let's see into
1150s those so we're going to speak about
1152s positive
1154s psychology
1156s so we got the regular psychology and
1159s positive psychology it's the field okay
1162s the scientific study of adaptable human
1164s functioning that aims to discover and
1167s promote
1168s the factors that allow individuals and
1170s communities to thrive
1180s so it aims not to move people toward
1183s average just as like a regular
1186s psychology when like you're gonna
1188s see a psychologist or a social worker
1190s you have an issue you want to get
1193s to the normal okay big hair quotes here
1197s the aim of positive psychology is to
1200s take this this
1203s this average
1204s and move it up
1205s to build on strength
1210s positive psychology is also quite aware
1212s that negativity is not bad
1215s the idea here is when you got something
1217s negative to stay on the facts
1219s okay to
1221s see what you can improve or change but
1224s not to get into the negative loop
1227s negativity is contagious
1230s but positivity too
1233s then positive psychology goes into
1236s it's not the it's not the answer to all
1238s of society's problems not because you're
1241s positive that nothing bad will happen
1244s okay
1245s then we go into happiness
1248s so happiness versus success
1250s and like the happiness advantage
1254s so happiness versus success it's quite
1256s simple
1257s the happiness doesn't need to be on the
1260s other side
1261s of success
1263s okay
1265s happiness is in the present not behind
1267s success
1269s lots of successful people are not happy
1273s happiness is more the joy that you feel
1275s moving up to your potential
1279s then positive psychology also is also
1282s about realistic optimism
1286s so those are
1288s the five tenants of
1290s positive psychology so we got the growth
1291s mindset
1293s the gratitude exercise meditation
1296s physical exercise and random act of
1299s kindness
1302s so to see how
1303s those tenants actually
1306s get into a community and make it improve
1309s we're going to see
1310s well actually real case study
1312s that just
1314s add those to communities
1316s so here is dr sean nature that went and
1321s teach those tenants to an insurance
1323s company
1325s where
1326s he he did
1327s like the measurement and afterwards
1330s he found out that
1331s the increase of the brain performance of
1333s those employees increased by 31 in
1335s average
1337s he measured like a better uh
1340s like
1342s better kind of like complex thinking
1345s better creativity
1347s a better energy level
1349s and all business up
1351s outcome actually increased
1354s and also they also easily measured that
1356s they got like a 30 increase in sales
1361s not only that they also find out that
1365s positivity
1366s brings dopamine
1369s so yeah
1370s prefer tar cortex again
1374s then
1376s dr anchor took those results
1378s he just like did something really great
1380s with a small community
1382s he went to iowa
1384s there he went into the poorest district
1387s that he can find into the bottom
1389s percentile of schools
1393s where he teach like the same things to
1396s the student
1399s and in the three years that follows
1403s the test scores of the the whole school
1406s increased by 20 percent
1409s then he took those results
1412s he went to chicago it was in 0809 where
1415s like the perfectity
1418s rate increased by 35 percent over the
1420s last year
1422s and there they work with the student
1425s to create parent university
1427s where the kids would actually teach the
1430s parent the positive habits
1434s and the grades for the student went from
1436s the
1437s uh 83rd percentile into the 95th
1440s percentile in illinois and the two the
1443s top two percent in the u.s
1445s but not only that
1448s the disciplinary reaction decreased by
1450s 50
1452s the depression rate
1454s by 30
1456s the calls to the 911 center
1460s by 40 percent
1462s that that's quite something
1465s then we're going to move to like another
1467s case study that actually is still still
1470s going
1471s with dr seligman again
1473s with the us army
1476s so dr soliman started in 09 to train
1481s all
1482s u.s drill sergeant into positive
1485s psychology and well-being
1488s the goal was to make
1490s more growth
1491s after a difficult outcome
1494s instead of
1495s ptsd
1496s suicide substance abuse and such and but
1500s also the goal was to improve the overall
1502s resilience
1505s and since then
1507s they saw a significant reduction
1510s in all
1511s cases of mental illness and substance
1513s abuse
1515s so about 50 reduction in substance abuse
1519s and about
1520s 20 reduction in related mental health
1525s so as you can imagine
1528s it is now officially in the us military
1531s program
1532s so see those are cases of how different
1535s communities have been changed by
1536s positivity so there's like a power into
1539s it
1541s but how do you use this power
1543s that's what it will we're going to link
1545s with respect
1548s so okay first of all let's get a
1549s definition
1551s we call respect and active process that
1553s increase our awareness of one another to
1556s non-judgmentally interact with people
1558s from all backgrounds
1560s and that's where it's getting
1561s interesting
1563s respect can be practiced by any action
1565s or behavior that promotes another person
1568s well-being
1571s or make them feel
1572s connected to you and or the communities
1577s let's sustain them
1580s it allows us to work more efficiently
1584s but not only that what do you think why
1586s do you think that we work more
1588s efficiently with people that we know
1590s better
1592s what does that do for our brain it's
1594s easier
1595s we trust more we can be ourself we take
1597s shortcuts
1598s okay
1599s we were more we work more efficiently
1604s and well since we work more efficiently
1607s we're gonna engage in a way that both
1610s testing myself and you we are gregarious
1613s remember we have more section of our
1615s brain dedicated to interact with our own
1617s species than most of the other species
1622s so yes once again prefrontal cortex
1628s also respect is not tolerance
1632s so
1633s if we got tolerance here
1636s we are
1637s suspicious by nature okay if we do
1640s nothing we're suspicious and
1643s you playing eve you are suspicious
1647s so suspicious
1649s leads to avoidance
1652s and if you continue to be suspicious
1654s it can actually lead to hostility
1657s both of those
1659s are energy loss and decrease in
1661s efficiency because
1662s it's like in a given day you got
1665s x amount of energy
1667s if you take a part of this energy to go
1670s to do something else
1672s well you're not you're not actually
1674s working on like 100 of the time you're
1677s not efficient
1679s but
1680s if we change suspicion
1683s with curiosity
1685s you can actually reverse the process
1688s you can even go higher
1692s and get like into engagement
1695s but not only that
1696s can go even higher
1699s and that's where you can actually reach
1701s the respect
1702s so keep in mind respect is an active
1705s process
1709s what does it gives
1712s well
1713s same thing well behavior triggers
1715s biological response guess which one
1718s serotonin oxytocin
1720s and dopamine
1722s prefer tears prefrontal cortex again
1727s so
1730s it also helps to reduce the cost
1732s associated with lawsuits and non-respect
1736s the respectful or discriminatory
1738s behaviors
1741s it helps to get like a greater learning
1743s and innovation because while you're
1744s using your preferential cortex remember
1747s increase the resilience increase
1749s workforce engagement
1750s improve physic physical and mental
1752s health
1754s it'll help attracts
1755s engage and keep your best talents
1759s it taught your ability to provide high
1760s customer service
1762s because it's easier to get to give
1764s respect to customer if you're treated
1766s with respect
1768s gives a higher job satisfaction
1770s higher productivity
1772s and much more
1778s but
1778s this respect does exist
1781s and how does it work
1783s it's quite simple an act of disrespect
1785s gonna go immediately into your long-term
1788s memory because that's useful for
1789s survival that's logic
1794s the act of this free aspect well it
1797s actually
1798s shut out the uh the prefrontal cortex
1801s because
1802s it's usually engaged like the
1803s fight-or-flight of flight uh uh like a
1806s condition which puts you into like the
1809s sympathetic nervous system so adrenaline
1812s cortisols
1815s and well yeah there's health issue on
1818s like even on the neural system
1820s like the cortisol
1821s it can not only be bad as what i told
1824s you
1825s earlier but it can also uh scar your
1828s blood vessels
1829s and
1830s increase your the uh health uh
1833s issue uh
1835s that has to deal with
1837s cardiovascular
1838s disease
1840s but also weaken the synaptic connection
1843s and can even kill the neurons making you
1845s dumb and stupid
1848s so
1849s lots of consequences so yeah
1852s stress-related illness increased
1854s absenteeism
1855s absenteeism and accident above average
1859s employees turnovers and much more
1863s but
1865s if something quite special happens in
1867s the two hours following an act of
1869s disrespect
1871s we can actually do magic
1873s and that's where i'm gonna get into the
1875s empire the importance of being sorry
1879s so why is it so important to be sorry
1884s if
1886s sometime between the two hours that
1889s after like an act of disrespect
1891s the person said that they are sorry
1894s making an honest
1896s and sincere apology to the other person
1899s it disrupts
1900s the cons the memory consolidation
1902s process it's almost
1905s like hitting
1907s the reset button
1909s so if you have something to remember
1913s it's really important to be sorry
1916s recruiting
1919s okay respect how to
1922s so
1925s here we got like it's a paul
1927s michelangelo's trailblue sort of respect
1929s good book
1930s uh those are like only a few of them
1934s be aware of your verbal and extrovert
1937s cues
1938s show curiosity
1940s in this perspective of others
1943s look for opportunities to connect and
1945s support with others
1947s treat others like they're smart
1951s learn to be wrong on occasion
1955s never hesitate to say that you're sorry
1958s and smile
1960s so thank you very much if you want to
1961s join me you got my information here and
1963s if
1964s you're looking for that kind of group in
1966s eve online i don't know them all okay
1969s but positivity and respect well those
1972s guys and sorry got it
1974s and we're recruiting thank you very much
1977s [Applause]
1982s we'll now take questions
1985s if you would like to get to the mic if
1987s you got any
1995s if we are sorry in advance do we
1997s automatically cancel any kind of
1999s disrespect meaning that we are the best
2002s place possible
2003s okay so if we're sorry in advance well
2006s yeah i
2007s i guess i might be a little biased on
2009s the question
2010s uh but on the section are we the best
2012s place possible if you're looking for a
2015s no for no sect and with those kind of
2018s value
2019s i really think so
2028s hey hi have you have you ever tried
2030s running gratitude or meditation before a
2033s fleet
2035s oh um
2036s i don't run that much
2038s that much fleets
2040s myself because if you saw like the
2042s presentation of don dinkle yesterday
2044s when you do the uh like different
2047s alliance are running the different ways
2050s and
2051s i'm more into the managing section uh
2054s more than into like the fleets
2057s uh i think that actually
2059s it's something it's absolutely it's
2060s something to try but on the follow-up on
2062s that question i do have like on like
2065s sorry i'm sorry discord you do have like
2067s a public
2068s channel
2069s for where people can actually publicize
2070s like random act of kindness
2073s so that it's actually like promotes
2074s those kind of things and people actually
2076s oh yeah i can't do that it doesn't cost
2078s me anything and i make someone's day or
2080s whatever so yeah
2082s different thing that can be implemented
2085s i think it's a great idea to actually
2086s like yeah do that before the fleets
2089s why not like it it increases like it
2091s activates your prefrontal cortex so you
2094s want to be on the top of your game
2098s yeah if every one is calm before it gets
2100s stuck in well actually you get more
2102s chances for them to act the way that you
2106s would like them to act because it's the
2108s right part of the brain that is working
2110s if you got people that don't know what
2112s they're doing or they kind they kind of
2115s know like the prefrontal cortex will go
2118s silence again and you're gonna just hit
2120s on the sympathetic nervous system it's
2123s gonna be cortisol and adrenaline
2133s okay so the question is about like
2135s explaining a little bit more about the
2136s growth mindset okay
2138s um
2139s so actually um could you
2144s i actually got slides on that so it's
2146s just that they are masked out
2149s so i think it's 10 and 11.
2160s okay
2161s so that touch into two things
2165s so the
2166s neurogenetic like we got neurogenesis
2169s and neuroplasticity so remember the
2171s beginning i was explaining stuff about
2173s like the nervous system and how it
2175s worked
2176s so
2177s neurogenesis
2178s the creations of neurons which actually
2181s happened like in pre-prenatal
2183s but also in adulthood
2187s as i said it like it's a part of the
2190s brain that actually got like a few stem
2191s cells that can actually help you like a
2194s regrowth uh new
2197s like new pathways in your um
2201s like in your nervous system
2204s but it can also modify and adapt that's
2207s what we call the
2209s neuroplasticity
2213s so changing structure
2216s and function
2217s into your nervous system
2220s can strengthen the pathway or atrophy
2223s the pathway
2225s so if you uh
2226s like if you want to know more about that
2228s i do suggest you the book uh by jim
2231s quick limitless
2233s it's really something it's really good
2235s because it's someone that got
2237s brain injury in
2239s like a early childhood
2241s that has like a speech disability and
2244s now he's a leading expert on brain
2248s speeches
2249s memory and one of the best coach in the
2251s world
2254s which lead us to
2256s the growth
2258s because we all have
2260s like
2261s the possibility to do like neurogenesis
2264s and neuroplasticity
2266s so growth is really a choice
2269s if you want to to get somewhere and go
2271s like further
2273s so this this one is actually the theory
2275s by dr carroll's s twerk
2278s where she explained that there's two
2279s type
2280s two big type of mindset
2283s sorry so the first one is the um the
2286s fixed mindset
2288s where you think that well those are the
2290s things that i can do in life i cannot
2292s really do more and like i failed a test
2296s one time it's who i am
2300s on the other side on the growth mindset
2302s it's like oh
2304s okay i i've did a test
2306s i failed it i'll i was not prepared of
2309s maybe i'm gonna study i'm gonna redo it
2312s and be better i i see challenges
2316s as opportunity to grow
2319s like it's really like the the way
2322s where you don't see
2324s limits
2325s where you can actually go further
2332s does that answer the question
2335s yes
2346s okay well that's a great one because um
2348s in the
2349s when we talk about
2351s mental health well there's everything
2353s that has to do with uh man was what we
2356s call mental hygiene
2358s okay um
2360s you can get a lot of information on that
2363s with uh meditations book where they
2366s compare a
2368s meditation to actually mental hygiene
2370s like like we shower well actually the
2373s brain should actually
2375s get his own hygiene and for that i can
2377s actually recommend you
2379s um
2380s i can't remember way it's uh
2383s what's the name of the book
2386s yeah stress less accomplished more by
2389s emily
2390s fletcher yeah so that's like that's
2393s really a good book like around like this
2395s kind of things because
2397s uh in her book what she's telling is
2400s we are not all monks and it's not all
2403s the type of meditation that are good for
2406s us those that are monks well yeah
2407s there's all kind of meditation but those
2410s that leave
2411s that live business lives
2413s and actually has to be efficient there
2416s are other kind of meditation that exists
2418s and she's talking about it in her book
2421s um
2424s to go back to your question
2426s uh everything has to do with mental
2428s health like there's like in psychology
2431s there's the the place that you want to
2432s get toward what we call normal okay so
2435s big quote here
2437s but you don't have to stop at normal
2441s we still like mindsets
2444s you can go
2445s above and beyond
2447s once again like you did like the the
2450s book by jim quick where he's the perfect
2452s example of that where he started really
2455s far away
2456s and now he's
2458s top of the top of the world on that so
2460s yeah growth mindset that's real
2463s thank you very much you're welcome
2469s so on that thank you everyone every have
2472s a great fantastic
