THE SECRET BEHIND YOUR EMOTIONS & WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU!!! Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett

If you’ve ever wondered how emotions work, and what it means for all of us, then do we have the how emotions are made show for you.

Today I’ll be talking with Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett, an NIH award winning researcher and a university distinguished professor of psychology at Northeastern University about her new book, How Emotions are Made.

And that’s just what I want to talk with her about, about the secret life of the brain and what in the world it means for us.

That plus we’ll talk about Rowdy the dog, chimps and bonobos, right and left dog-tail wagging, eating baby bees, infant baby expressions, mistaking the flu for the love, and what in the word, fuzzy cheese pizza vomit and edible baby-poo have to do with anything!
