Cultivating Emotional Balance: The Dalai Lama imagined “a map of our emotions to develop a calm mind.” He asked his longtime friend and renowned emotion scientist Dr. Paul Ekman to realize his idea. Ekman took on the creation of the Atlas alongside his daughter, Eve Ekman, a second-generation emotion researcher and teacher. The Atlas of Emotions is intended to represent what researchers have learned about the science of Emotions from the psychological study of emotion.
Cultivating Emotional Balance: Dr. Paul Ekman, Dr. Alan Wallace, Dr. Mark Greenberg, and Dr. Richard Davidson created a secular training program to help people manage destructive emotions and cultivate a wholesome way of being. This training, called Cultivating Emotional Balance, is taught by Dr. Eve Ekman.
Dr. Ekman Bio: From 1971-2004 Dr. Ekman worked as a professor at University of California San Francisco and continued to publish influential and best-selling books and articles about facial expressions, emotions, and deception.
In 2004, after retiring from his work as a professor, Ekman’s next goal was to translate his research into helpful resources for the general public. To do so, he formed the Paul Ekman Group (PEG) to provide online training tools and in-person workshops.
