🧠Are emotions hardwired into us… or created in real time?
Psychology professor Lisa Feldman Barrett discusses her lab’s research on how emotions are constructed by the brain rather than “wired” into us from birth.
According to her work, emotions are predictions — the brain making its best guess based on past experiences, context, and bodily sensations.
That raises a powerful question:
If emotions are constructed, does that mean we can change the way we feel?
Can we train our brains to interpret situations differently?
Can awareness reshape emotional reactions over time?
