We are bombarded with messages from the media that we need to be more positive but then hear about "toxic positivity" - that actually trying to be positive in itself presents its own uniques challenges and problems.
So do we need to be more positive, more negative? What is the way forward to lead better and more fulfilling lives?
A fascinating talk that outlines current thinking about how we think and its impact on the brain.
