In this program, we watched and discussed a selected TED talk. TED talks follow a unique format. Speakers at TED events have a maximum of 18 minutes to share their messages, which are delivered in highly polished, succinct speeches. TED talks are delivered by people from all walks of life on a multitude of subjects. A great many of these talks are about the insights gained by ordinary people–insights gained through extraordinary experiences or based on their contemplation of the ordinary events of their lives. Either way, their insights are genuine—not based upon theory or dogma, but through experience.
The title for this Ted Talk is: “Reason Interrupted: The Power of Intuition” The speaker was Liane Thompson.
The theme of intuition was deeply explored and expounded on in this short talk. Some ideas shared were about not waiting, just jump. Also, that an environment of chaos can enhance the ability to access intuition. Another idea explored was questioning what’s the worst that can happen?
This group was facilitated by Rev. Jacquelyn Eckert.
