8. Why we all need to practice emotional first aid

So far, this talk by psychologist Guy Winch has clocked over 2.5 million views so far this year. He discusses the importance of treating our emotional health with the same level of meticulousness as our physical well-being. Dr Winch reveals the absurdity, which means a child of 5 years old knows how to put on a band-aid, yet we don’t as adults know how to heal the psychological injuries we incur on a daily basis. He asks, why do we value the body so much more than we value the mind? Guy Winch is funny and compelling; this talk easily deserves its place in the top 10 TED talks of 2015.
