We are living in a growing digital age in which content is continuous and silence is seldom. Social media alone exemplifies the perpetual expectation for us to feel something with every stimulus: one post showing a climate catastrophe, the next showing your friends at the beach, and the next showing a weight loss advertisement. In his TEDxUSC Talk, Nicolo Betoni addresses the issues with this immense amount of content we consume and how it has led us to become desensitized to the world around us. To combat this overstimulation, Nicolo explores the idea of sensory deprivation and the healing role that silence plays for our minds and bodies. Nicolo is a current medical student at the University of California, Irvine on the integrative health track, where he explores the powers of alternative and complementary medicine such as acupuncture, meditation, and the importance of sleep, diet, and exercise. He graduated from the University of Southern California in 2020 studying neuroscience and music. During his gap year, Nicolo lived on a farm where he grew food, cared for animals, and worked with adults with disabilities. Nicolo’s TEDxUSC Talk combines his experiences with integrative medicine, rural and urban environments, musical analysis, and neuroscience research to deliver a powerful message on learning how to feel something again. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
