brain

We all have moments in our lives when we feel an unconscious pull towards a certain decision.

Should you walk down that dark alley? Does that person seem a bit off? Why is that giving me the heebie-jeebies?

For Isla Lucas, a gut feeling while on holiday saved her life… Or did it?

We take a look at the science and fantasy of intuition.

In this episode, we're diving deep into the science of positive thinking and how it can literally rewire your brain. Yes, you heard that right! Just like hitting the gym works out your muscles, focusing on positive thoughts exercises your brain, making it stronger and more resilient. 🧠💪

I'll be walking you through some fascinating scientific studies that show how our thoughts, whether they're sunny or gloomy, can shape the very structure of our brains. This is all about the power of neuroplasticity – our brain's incredible ability to adapt and change, no matter our age. 🌟

Think of it as training your mind. Every time you choose positivity, you're strengthening neural pathways, making it easier to stay upbeat and see the glass as half full. And don’t worry, I’m not just throwing feel-good statements at you – we’ve got solid science backing all of this up! 📚

I'm also going to share some easy, practical tips on how you can start incorporating more positivity into your daily life. From gratitude exercises to mindfulness meditation, we've got lots of tools to help you on your journey to a happier, healthier mindset.

In this episode, Anusha takes you through 11 papers testing potential neuroprotective agents for AD treatment. You’ll hear about naturally and pharmaceutically-derived compounds as well as strategies that exploit cell-endogenous processes for neuroprotection in AD.

Today’s episode is a really short & snappy one, dare I say, a mini-sode.

Despite being short, it’s an important one, where I’m sharing 2 valuable training tips that I’ve been talking about with my students for more than a decade: farts & unicorns. These are two training tips you can take away immediately and incorporate into your training.

A short episode, but one I hope you find really helpful.  

And now I best explain just what I mean by farts & unicorns. Listen to find out.

In this episode I discuss:

1:17 - episode introduction

1:55 - brain farts

2:14 - what are ‘brain farts’

2:53 - why talk to students and you about this

4:01 - what to do about it

5:36 - unicorn moments

6:02 - what are unicorn moments

7:00 - why should we beware of them

8:10 - what to do about it

9:53 - episode summary

10.16 - podcast wrap-up & what’s on next week

Concussions are hard to diagnose, often get missed, and not always taken seriously.

And if you're not a professional athlete, it can be surprisingly hard to get clear information on how to manage and recover afterwards. Why?

The brain is your most important organ, after all!

This week, we try and make sense of the confusion around concussions.

Every now and then we like to talk to someone who is an expert in something we know almost nothing about. What better topic than philosophy and neuroscience? Andy Clark is Professor of Cognitive Philosophy at the University of Sussex, and is a well-known voice within philosophy of mind, pushing the boundaries of how we conceive of the brain, its connections with our environment, and in his new book, how it actively constructs our experience through prediction. The book is The Experience Machine: How Our Minds Predict and Shape Reality. We have a delightfully nerdy, scientific, and humble conversation with Andy about everything from why we sometimes feel our phones vibrating when they're not there, to whether AI can match human brains, to psychedelics, to whether there is a hard problem of consciousness. We even get him to talk a bit about religion. We barely scratch the surface, but it was a lot of fun!

The beverage we taste in this episode is Blanton's Single Barrel bourbon from Buffalo Trace Distillery.

Audio note: we weren't able to use our standard recording setup for this one, so if we sound a little odd, that's why. Apologies!

To skip the tasting, go to 6:53.

People differ over whether a cluttered, paper-strewn work area is a good or a bad thing. In favor is that it could mean you’re highly creative, maybe even a genius.

Against clutter is that your physical environment may strongly affect your understanding, emotions, and behavior.  It can also influence your decision-making and relationships.

In this week's podcast, Andrew teases some essentials about clutter. 

Scans show that our brains like order. Mess is seldom a visual reminder of genius, more often it suggests disorganization that drains mental resources and reduces our ability to focus.

Andrew explains how the clutter happens and why. For example, even touching material things makes you more emotionally attached to them.

That mess is saying to you: "To touch me is to love me!" No wonder it's more comfortable to hold onto the clutter than dump it.

Since you are in search of success at work, Andrew warns that perception is everything and tidiness suggests that you are well organized,

Passing your chaotic desk prompts the opposite perception, "How do find anything from all that?"

He suggests you encourage your team to have regular spring cleaning days and perhaps turn these into enjoyable social experiences as well.

Andrew ends this podcast on clutter with the usual three practical actions you can take right away to deal with it.

Why not give this Podcast a second hearing so that you begin to include this kind of thinking into your search for success at work?

So much of adult life is about learning the rules and then using those rules to navigate the world. We become certain that we know what we know — that we’re right, and we’re safer and more secure that way. But certainty, argues neuroscientist Beau Lotto, might actually be one of society’s biggest sources of emotional and physical unwellness. Certainty causes us to have less humility, less creativity, and less tolerance for difference. But occasionally, something amazing knocks us out of those patterns — we’re awestruck. Is it possible to use awe as a tool to make us more open, tolerant people? In Lotto’s talk from Aspen Ideas: Health, he walks us through how that effect actually works in our brains, and shares what he’s learned from researching the topic at his Lab of Misfits, where he’s founder and CEO.
