If you believe either that Franklin discovered the double helix, and / or Watson and Crick stole her data, ask yourself how you know this. Then take a read of this article.

Thrilled to announce my new podcast, "The Gravity Doctors," together with @brennanspiegel.bsky.social. We introduce the world of "Biogravitational Medicine"—how gravity shapes your body and mind for better or worse.

Why do you think positive emotions feel light and negative emotions feel heavy?

Serotonin as the 'molecular mediator of gravity management' in both body and mind, hence its role in depression and anxiety according to the principles of mental gravity

How can we solve the youth mental health crisis?

The three spirits…

Beautiful piece, thank you.

If I could train to become an interoceptologist, I would. Brain-body states are at the centre of both mental and physical health. Great piece

My father-in-law retired from academia in the ‘90’s. I don’t think he recognise the profession now and would be dismayed to hear how staff are struggling these days.

Extremely proud of @xuanluu.bsky.social for leading this quality qual work. Please follow him - PhD due for submission soon…

For new consciousness followers, this is my main contribution to consciousness science. CLaE is worth a follow as well for lots of good neuro links...

Getting stuck in depression: The roles of rumination and emotional inertia Like many other mental disorders, depression is characterised by psychological inflexibility. Two instances of such inflexibility are rumination: repetitive cognitions focusing on the causes and co...

Agree. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... and also my own theory of mental gravity. Mood is high/low and stable/unstable and I think this encodes value of emotional self-world relations using physical analogues (inertia, momentum, gravity, etc).

I want to do a podcast that monitors and fact checks AB called “U-Bolt”. Looking for a producer and/or cohost, hehe…

Good vibes to you all from our salt shaker

Oo-ooh, lemme guess! Neutral buoyancy mimicking early foetal buoyancy in utero??

Who really won when Bergson and Einstein debated time? | Aeon Essays Henri Bergson and Albert Einstein fundamentally disagreed about the nature of time and how it can be measured. Who was right?

In which @evanthompson.bsky.social discusses clock time and the time of the philosopher and the famous Einstein/Bergson debate: “[Einstein’s]real mistake… was his view that physical time, defined through the measurements of clocks, was more fundamental than lived time.” aeon.co/essays/who-r...

Happiness feels light and sadness feels heavy: introducing valence-related bodily sensation maps of emotions - Psychological Research Bodily sensation mapping (BSM) is a recently developed self-report tool for the assessment of emotions in which people draw their sensations of activation in a body silhouette.

Postural balance is taken as a subsidiary motor task, not a homeostatic task like thermoregulation.

But balance and sensations of weight have a valenced aspect which permeates experience and emotion not unlike hot-cold sensations do.

People think it’s all in the ear, I think, and so it’s guilt by association with the audiovisual system. If more people knew about gut-based mechanoreceptors, graviception might be invited to the interoception party. Until then…

I really enjoyed reading this extremely well-written and provocative piece on #interoception If I understood correctly, in contrast to most exteroception, interoception is slower, coarser, more compressed, and more integrated. Interested what the authors think about graviception as interoception
