Reviewer Gopalco When I was first learning to meditate,
2
the instruction was to simply pay attention to my breath,
3
and when my mind wandered, to bring it back.
4
It sounded simple enough, yet I'd sit on these silent retreats,
5
sweating through T-shirts in the middle of winter.
6
I take naps every chance I got because it was really hard work.
7
Actually, it was exhausting.
8
The instruction was simple enough,
9
but I was missing something really important.
10
So why is it so hard to pay attention?
11
Well, studies show that even when we're really trying to pay attention to something,
12
like maybe this talk, at some point about half of us will drift off into a daydream
13
or have this urge to check our Twitter feed.
14
So what's going on here?
15
It turns out that we're fighting one of the most evolutionarily conserved learning processes currently known in science,
16
one that's conserved back to the most basic nervous systems known to man.
17
This reward-based learning process is called positive and negative reinforcement and basically goes like this.
18
We see some food that looks good,
19
our brain says, calories, survival.
20
We eat the food, we taste it, it tastes good.
21
And especially with sugar, our bodies send a signal to our brain that says,
22
Remember what you're eating and where you found it.
23
We lay down this context-dependent memory and learn to repeat the process next time.
24
See food, eat food, feel good, repeat.
25
Trigger, behavior, reward.
26
Simple, right?
27
Well, after a while, our creative brains say, you know what?
28
You can use this for more than just remembering where food is.
29
Next time you feel bad,
30
why don't you try eating something good so you'll feel better?
31
We thank our brains for the great idea.
32
Try this and quickly learn that if we eat chocolate or ice cream when we're mad or sad,
33
we feel better.
34
Same process, just a different trigger.
35
Instead of this hunger signal coming from our stomach,
36
this emotional signal feeling sad triggers that urge to eat.
37
Maybe in our teenage years,
38
we were a nerd at school,
39
and we see those rebel kids outside smoking,
40
and we think, hey, I want to be cool, so we start smoking.
41
The Marlboro Man wasn't a dork,
42
and that was no accident.
43
See cool, smoke to be cool,
44
feel good, repeat, trigger, behavior, reward.
45
And each time we do this,
46
we learn to repeat the process,
47
and it becomes a habit.
48
So later, feeling stressed out triggers that urge to smoke a cigarette or to eat something sweet.
49
Now, with these same brain processes,
50
we've gone from learning to survive to literally killing ourselves with these habits.
51
Obesity and smoking are among the leading preventable causes of morbidity and mortality in the world.
52
So back to my breath.
53
What if instead of fighting our brains or trying to force ourselves to pay attention,
54
we instead tapped into this natural reward-based learning process, but added a twist.
55
What if instead we just got really curious about what was happening in our momentary experience?
56
I'll give you an example.
57
In my lab, we studied whether mindfulness training could help people quit smoking.
58
Now, just like trying to force myself to pay attention to my breath,
59
they could try to force themselves to quit smoking.
60
And the majority of them had tried this before and failed,
61
on average, six times.
62
Now, with mindfulness training, we dropped a bit about forcing and instead focused on being curious.
63
In fact, we even told them to smoke.
64
What?
65
Yeah, we said, go ahead and smoke,
66
just be really curious about what it's like when you do.
67
And what did they notice?
68
Well, here's an example from one of our smokers.
69
She said, mindful smoking smells like stinky cheese and tastes like chemicals.
70
Yuck!
71
Now, she knew cognitively that smoking was bad for her.
72
That's why she joined our program.
73
What she discovered just by being curiously aware when she smoked was that smoking tastes like shit.
74
Now, she moved from knowledge to wisdom.
75
She moved from knowing in her head that smoking was bad for her to knowing it in her bones.
76
And the spell of smoking was broken.
77
She started to become disenchanted with her behavior.
78
Now, the prefrontal cortex, that youngest part of our brain from an evolutionary perspective,
79
it understands on an intellectual level that we shouldn't smoke.
80
And it tries its hardest to help us change our behavior,
81
to help us stop smoking,
82
to help us stop eating that second,
83
that third, that fourth cookie.
84
We call this cognitive control.
85
We're using cognition to control our behavior.
86
Unfortunately, this is also the first part of our brain that goes offline when we get stressed out,
87
which isn't that helpful.
88
Now, we can all relate to this in our own experience.
89
We're much more likely to do things like yell at our spouse or kids when we're stressed out or tired,
90
even though we know it's not going to be helpful.
91
We just can't help ourselves.
92
Now, when the prefrontal cortex goes offline,
93
we fall back into our old habits,
94
which is why this disenchantment is so important.
95
Seeing what we get from our habits helps us understand them in a deeper level,
96
to know it in our bones,
97
so we don't have to force ourselves to hold back or restrain ourselves from behavior.
98
We're just less interested in doing it in the first place.
99
And this is what mindfulness is all about,
100
seeing really clearly what we get when we get caught up in our behaviors,
101
becoming disenchanted on a visceral level,
102
and from this disenchanted stance, naturally letting go.
103
This isn't to say that,
104
poof, magically we quit smoking,
105
But over time, as we learn to see more and more clearly the results of our actions,
106
we let go of old habits and form new ones.
107
The paradox here is that mindfulness is just about being really interested
108
and getting close and personal with what's actually happening in our bodies and minds from moment to moment.
109
This willingness to turn toward our experience rather than trying to make unpleasant cravings go away as quickly as possible.
110
And this willingness to turn toward our experience is supported by curiosity,
111
which is naturally rewarding.
112
What does curiosity feel like?
113
It feels good.
114
And what happens when we get curious?
115
We start to notice that cravings are simply made up of body sensations.
116
Oh, there's tightness, there's tension,
117
there's restlessness, and that these body sensations come and go.
118
These are bite-sized pieces of experiences that we can manage from moment to moment,
119
rather than getting clobbered by this huge,
120
scary craving that we choke on.
121
In other words, when we get curious,
122
we step out of our old fear-based reactive habit patterns,
123
and we step into being.
124
We become this inner scientist,
125
where we're eagerly awaiting that next data point.
126
Now, this might sound too simplistic to affect behavior,
127
but in one study, we found that mindfulness training twice as good as gold standard therapy at helping people quit smoking.
128
So it actually works.
129
And when we studied the brains of experienced meditators,
130
we found that parts of a neural network of self-referential processing called the default mode network were at play.
131
Now, one current hypothesis is
132
that a region of this network called the posterior cingulate cortex is activated not necessarily by craving itself,
133
but when we get caught up in it,
134
when we get sucked in and it takes us for a ride.
135
In contrast, when we let go,
136
step out of the process just by being curiously aware of what's happening,
137
this same brain region quiets down.
138
Now we're testing app and online-based mindfulness training programs that target these core mechanisms and,
139
ironically, use the same technology that's driving us to distraction to help us step out of our unhealthy habit patterns of smoking,
140
of stress-eating and other addictive behaviors.
141
Now, remember that bit about context-dependent memory?
142
We can deliver these tools to people's fingertips in the contexts that matter most.
143
So we can help them tap into their inherent capacity to be curiously aware,
144
right when that urge to smoke or stress eat or whatever arises.
145
So if you don't smoke or stress eat,
146
maybe the next time you feel this urge to check your email
147
when you're bored or you're trying to distract yourself from work,
148
or maybe to compulsively respond to that text message when you're driving,
149
See if you can tap into this natural capacity.
150
Just be curiously aware of what's happening in your body and mind in that moment.
151
It will just be another chance to perpetuate one of our endless and exhaustive habit loops.
152
Or step out of it.
153
Instead of see text message,
154
compulsively text back, feel a little bit better,
155
notice the urge, get curious,
156
feel the joy of letting go, and repeat.
157
Thank you.
158
Thank you.

이 레슨에 대해

Judson Brewer의 TED 강연 "나쁜 습관을 깨는 간단한 방법"은 우리가 왜 나쁜 습관에 빠지는지, 그리고 어떻게 하면 그 습관을 효과적으로 끊을 수 있는지에 대한 깊이 있는 통찰을 제공합니다. 이 동영상은 습관 형성의 과학적 원리인 '보상 기반 학습(reward-based learning)'과 '강화(reinforcement)' 개념을 설명하며, 우리가 어떻게 '유발인자(trigger) - 행동(behavior) - 보상(reward)'의 고리에 갇히게 되는지를 보여줍니다. 이 강연은 단순히 지식을 전달하는 것을 넘어, 마음 챙김(mindfulness)을 통해 습관의 고리를 끊고 긍정적인 변화를 이끌어내는 실제적인 방법을 제시합니다.

이 레슨을 통해 학습자들은 다음과 같은 언어 학습 요소를 연습할 수 있습니다:

  • 어휘 주제: 습관, 뇌 과학, 심리학, 행동 변화, 마음 챙김과 관련된 전문 용어 및 일상 표현(예: drift off, lay down memory, disenchanted, cognitive control)을 익힐 수 있습니다.
  • 문법 패턴: 복잡한 과학적 개념을 쉽고 명확하게 설명하는 방식, 원인과 결과(if-then)를 연결하는 문장 구조, 예시를 통해 주장을 뒷받침하는 설명 방식을 연습할 수 있습니다.
  • 말하기 맥락: TED 강연은 설득력 있고 논리적인 스피치를 연습하기에 최적의 자료입니다. 복잡한 아이디어를 명료하게 전달하고, 청중을 사로잡는 스토리텔링 기법을 엿볼 수 있습니다. 영어 말하기 연습을 통해 자신의 의견을 논리적으로 피력하는 능력을 기를 수 있습니다.

주요 어휘 및 표현

  • drift off into a daydream: (생각이) 딴 데로 새다, 몽상에 빠지다. 강연 초반에 주의가 산만해지는 현상을 설명할 때 사용됩니다.
  • evolutionarily-conserved learning processes: 진화적으로 보존된 학습 과정. 인간의 가장 기본적인 신경 시스템에 뿌리박혀 있는 학습 방식을 의미합니다.
  • reward-based learning process: 보상 기반 학습 과정. 행동 후 보상이 주어지면 그 행동을 반복하게 되는 학습 메커니즘입니다.
  • lay down this context-dependent memory: 이러한 상황 의존적 기억을 형성하다. 특정 상황에서 얻은 경험을 기억으로 저장하는 것을 말합니다.
  • disenchanted with her behavior: 자신의 행동에 환멸을 느끼다/매력을 잃다. 흡연자가 흡연의 실제 경험을 깨닫고 더 이상 흡연에 매력을 느끼지 못하게 되는 상황을 묘사합니다.
  • prefrontal cortex: 전전두엽 피질. 뇌의 가장 발달한 부분으로, 인지 제어와 의사 결정에 관여합니다.
  • cognitive control: 인지 제어. 인지 능력을 사용하여 행동을 조절하고 통제하려는 노력을 의미합니다.

이 동영상 연습 팁

이 TED 강연은 쉐도잉 기법을 활용한 영어 말하기 연습에 매우 유용한 자료입니다. Judson Brewer의 명확하고 설득력 있는 전달 방식을 따라 하며 영어 유창성발음 연습에 집중해 보세요.

  • 말하기 속도와 리듬: 강연자는 복잡한 개념을 설명할 때는 다소 빠르지만, 중요한 포인트를 강조할 때는 속도를 늦춥니다. 전체적인 말하기 속도는 중간 정도이며, 단어와 단어 사이의 연결(linking)이 자연스럽습니다. 특히, 예시를 들거나 질문을 던질 때의 리듬과 강세를 주의 깊게 따라 해 보세요. 이는 자연스러운 대화 흐름을 익히는 데 도움이 됩니다.
  • 억양 및 강세: Judson Brewer는 메시지의 핵심을 전달하기 위해 억양과 강세를 효과적으로 사용합니다. 특히 "Trigger, behavior, reward."와 같이 중요한 개념을 요약할 때의 명확한 발음과 단호한 억양을 모방해 보세요. 감정을 담아 이야기하는 부분(예: "YUCK!", "(Laughter)")에서는 감정 표현까지 함께 연습하면 발음 연습과 동시에 표현력도 향상시킬 수 있습니다.
  • 내용 전달력: 이 강연의 가장 큰 특징은 복잡한 과학적 내용을 비유와 사례를 통해 쉽게 설명한다는 점입니다. 강연자가 어떻게 어려운 개념(예: 보상 기반 학습)을 일상적인 예시(음식, 흡연)로 풀어내는지 관찰하고, 이를 자신만의 방식으로 설명하는 연습을 해보세요. 이는 IELTS 스피킹이나 다른 프레젠테이션 상황에서 복잡한 주제를 명확하게 전달하는 능력을 기르는 데 큰 도움이 됩니다. 강연의 흐름을 파악하고, 각 문장이 다음 문장으로 어떻게 연결되는지 집중하며 쉐도잉하면, 논리적인 말하기 구조를 자연스럽게 익힐 수 있습니다.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
