or something like this.
"So, what are you doing?"
"No, s čim se ukvarjaš?"
this magical one-word reply,
tisto čudežno besedo,
everybody's happy and pleased.
in vsi so srečni in zadovoljni.
for 30 seconds with me,
v resnici traja le 30 sekund,
when one of them would ask,
ko eden od njih vpraša:
in all honesty and just say,
the whole intestinal tract."
za cel prebavni trakt."
when the enthusiasm trickled,
like, awkwardly silent in the room,
our bowels are quite charming.
naša prebavila precej očarljiva.
where many people are thinking about
about the organ where this happens,
za organ, kjer se vse to dogaja,
and the mechanisms behind it.
to figure out this magic trick,
disliked the gut for a long time;
tako dolgo ni marala črevesja,
that are being trained there.
ki se tam urijo.
doing all sorts of things --
ki počnejo razne stvari -
than our genitals, for example.
kot na primer naše genitalije.
of our gut is so complex
črevesja je tako kompleksen,
that when we poke it,
the reasons why it's so fascinating
je črevesje tako fascinantno
on those three steps.
sledite po teh treh korakih.
like, "How does it work?"
na primer: "Kako deluje?"
so weird for that sometimes?"
tako čudno izgledati?"
the first kind of these questions,
spraševala takih vprašanj,
How does pooping work?"
Kako deluje kakanje?"
but I had no idea,
a nisem imela pojma,
and look it up in different books.
in pobrskala po različnih knjigah.
I thought, at that time.
takrat zdelo zanimivo.
this outer sphincter,
mišice zapiralke,
we can control it,
lahko jo nadzorujemo,
to the inner one first.
Is it gaseous or is it solid?
kar je dostavljeno, plinasto ali trdno.
this information up to our brain,
when our brain knows,
what it's designed to do
za kar so ustvarjeni,
is connected with nervous cells,
povezani z živčnimi celicami,
sitting on the couch,
takrat imamo prosto pot.
of the very few animals that do this
živali, ki to počnemo
na novo odkrito spoštovanje
the outer world or the time --
za zunanji svet ali čas,
of public restrooms,
pristašinja javnih stranišč,
on my daily agenda.
predlog na moj dnevni razpored.
something else, which was:
I might have shied away from --
kar me je prej morda spravljajo v zadrego,
noises that happen
ki se zgodijo,
is actually a huge neat freak,
v bistvu mahnjeno na čistočo
to clean everything up,
da se vse počisti,
of gut -- really, seven of them --
črevesja - sedem, v bistvu -
and hardly smelling like anything.
create a strong muscular wave
močan mišični val,
that's been leftover after digestion.
kar je ostalo od prebave.
is really a sign
our insides fine and tidy.
našo notranjost lepo in čisto.
of our stomach --
našega želodca,
to put pressure on our belly
izvajamo pritisk na želodec,
and not so much sideways.
in X-rays, for example,
or even some sensations of pain.
ali celo občutek bolečine.
is just results
when you're laying on your left side
ko ležijo na levi strani
of our body and health.
našega telesa in zdravja.
ko sem slišala,
had killed himself.
ga malo poznala, ubil.
next to that person the day before,
sedela poleg tega človeka
of the suicide the next day,
izvedela za samomor,
something to do with it?
kaj narobe s črevesjem?
if there were scientific papers
če obstajajo kaki znanstveni članki
as we sometimes think.
kot pogosto mislimo.
makes these commands
to the other organs,
of the nerves that connect brain and gut
ki povezujejo možgane in črevesje
from the brain to the gut.
od možganov do črevesja.
in stressful situations,
that are being sensed by our gut,
možganske prenašalce,
and taking away blood and energy
za reševanje problemov.
or nervous diarrhea
ali živčna driska,
doesn't want to digest.
ki je takrat noče prebavljati.
that connect gut and brain
črevesje in možgane,
from our gut to our brain.
črevesja v možgane.
because our brain is very isolated.
možgani zelo izolirani.
surrounded by a thick skin,
obdani z debelo kožo,
to put together a feeling
da vzpostavijo občutje:
the most important advisor for the brain
najpomembnejši svetovalec možganov,
on the quality of our nutrients,
ne le o kvaliteti naših hranil,
of our immune cells doing,
so kaj naše številne imunske celice
in our blood that it can sense.
v naši krvi, ki jih lahko zazna.
and send it up to the brain.
in jih pošlje gor v možgane.
like visual cortex or word formations --
vizualni korteks ali tvorba besed,
or we would make funny noises -- no.
tvorili smešne zvoke. Ne.
for things like morality,
za stvari, kot so moralnost,
are putting together this feeling
vzpostavljajo občutje,
to contribute to this process.
nekaj doprinese.
like irritable bowel syndrome
kot je npr. razdražljivo črevesje
anxiety or depression.
za anksioznost in depresijo.
I also have this mental health thing."
imam tudi to mentalno zadevo."
clear on that right now --
trenutku še ni čisto na jasnem -
is feeling sympathy with their gut.
sočutni do črevesja.
until it can come to practice.
da bomo lahko prešli v prakso.
these kinds of research
obstajajo take raziskave,
differently of my moods
o svojih razpoloženjih
we are a brain and a screen,
da smo možgani in zaslon
for answers right there
or our neighbor --
vašemu sosedu neumno,
come from within.
prihaja od znotraj.
wake up too early,
around with my thoughts.
What did I eat yesterday?
"Nehaj. Kaj sem jedla včeraj?
and make myself a tea,
in si napravim čaj,
surprisingly good for me.
away from our body,
proč od našega telesa
bacteria differently.
is creating a new definition
ustvarjajo novo definicijo,
too little microbes in your environment
mikrobov v svojem okolju,
or autoimmune diseases then.
alergij in avtoimunskih bolezni.
killing off bacteria right away.
takojšnje uničenje vseh bakterij.
don't harm us -- they can't,
ne škoduje, ne morejo nam,
are looking into things like:
stvari, kot so:
čistiti črevesje?
or have a lean figure
or even more resilient to stress?
pogumnejše ali smo bolj odporni na stres?
when it comes to cleanliness.
vprašanj glede čistoče.
it's about a healthy balance, I think.
za zdravo ravnovesje, se mi zdi.
when you look at a clean gut,
gre v bistvu za to,
enough of them,
perspective on cleanliness
in that moment,
v tistem trenutku zavedla:
a mistake by 1,000.
and that's so embarrassing."
to je tako sramotno."
I was like, "Ugh!"
in sem si mislila: "Oh."
good and right and helpful things,
dobrih in koristnih reči,
on cleanliness further."
na čistočo peljala malo dlje."
that maybe we all do.
da mogoče vsi to počnemo.
cleaning our living room,
kot da le čistimo svojo dnevno sobo,
to sort like a life hygiene.
življenjsko higieno.
fostering the good
yourself from the bad
ščitenja sebe pred slabim,
mostly good and helpful things,
povedala večinoma dobre in koristne reči
