This clip introduces the powerful “90-second rule” for emotions.
Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor explains that an emotion itself only lasts around 90 seconds.
After that, the only reason we continue feeling it is because we keep replaying the thoughts that triggered it.
Anger, sadness, fear, frustration — all of these can naturally pass if we allow the emotional wave to move through us without mentally reigniting it.
This idea gives people a clearer understanding of how emotions work in the brain and how much control they can reclaim by simply observing rather than rethinking.
It’s a simple, practical tool for emotional clarity.
