Are Religious People Delusional?

Are Religious People Delusional?

I wrote this essay for Philosophy of Psychology which was probably the weirdest module I’ve ever done in my life – honestly I’m still not entirely sure what I was studying. I think essentially it was a course about how while we can study brain activation and behaviour we still don’t actually know what constitutes the “human mind” so it was discussing contemporary theories on what the “mind” is.

Gender Equality: A Cure for Depression?

Gender Equality: A Cure for Depression?

So this was the last and best essay I ever wrote at undergraduate level. It was also one of my favourite essays to write because I was really able to combine my political and scientific interests comprehensively. I think its so important that people always remember that scientific research into gender differences is far from apolitical and that gender politics can have such profound and personal…

Stop Calling Other Women Snakes

Stop Calling Other Women Snakes

I’m so bored of all these snake memes. Today I’m advocating we actually use more than just derogatory animal terms to explain why we don’t get along with others. Yeah, this one’s another rant. Ever since the whole Taylor Swift debacle ages ago, I don’t think there is any woman left on this planet who hasn’t been called a snake. Sometimes it seems deserved, but most of the time it’s for a very…

Mindfulness with Mehr, Week 2: Is My Self-Esteem just Too High for this?

Mindfulness with Mehr, Week 2: Is My Self-Esteem just Too High for this?

I know this is super late but I got such positive feedback from the fanbase on my last diary entry so here’s week 2. I’ve started sleeping better. Now I think I might be starting to understand this. I never noticed that I’m usually so concerned with any bodily issues (e.g. drowsiness, hunger etc.) that I don’t notice any unease or unrest in my mind. This week the theme was mindful movement. It…

Mindfulness with Mehr, Week 1: Why am I Staring at a Raisin?

Mindfulness with Mehr, Week 1: Why am I Staring at a Raisin?

This term at university I am partaking in a mindfulness course and one of the requirements for the course is to keep a diary. It’s not a marked piece of work but it’s all about mental health and meditation and so I thought it would be interesting to make people think. So here goes.   I don’t really know what to think  of this. I was so willing to take mindfulness super seriously and then the…
