Joy to see Mark Watson dealing remarkably well with unexpected audience participation on the topic of brain surgery and adoption. Last time was in Edinburgh for Best of the Fest alongside Will Smith. Thank you for the laughter ❤️

Do you get Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria #RSD? It often feels like being punched in the gut when you think someone doesn't like you or you believe you've upset someone?

Common in #ADHD types. Very unpleasant - but just knowing about it and recognising when it appears really seems to help!

What can affect your mental health? Community - yes. And also prenatal health, upbringing, genetics, workplace, environment, education and so much more.

We need Brainhealthy workplaces. Brainhealthy schools. Brainhealthy communities.

Feeling frazzled? Attention waning? Time in nature may boost your attention and improve impulse control!

Yes, it would be great to have neuroscience and neuroinclusion included in teacher education and in the meantime I'm so glad this helped you and will in turn help your kids.

A really special programme which absolutely resonated with my own experience of an ADHD diagnosis aged 45, alongside perimenopause. Thank you very much @chrisgpackham.bsky.social and all those who contributed to the programme.

Excited to hear @robinince.bsky.social speaking about ADHD and his new book Normally Weird and Weirdly Normal in Norwich on Wednesday evening. Thanks to the lovely folk at @bookbugs.bsky.social for holding the event! Still just a few tickets left if you're quick! Link below.

Ok, the MESSAGE webinar sub-5 min summary video is now on Youtube. Please have a listen, even if you think sex and gender has nothing to do with your clinical work or research. You may be surprised.

Women are woefully under-researched.

Spending time in nature helps your brain and overall health. Just a few minutes can make a difference and even watching a nature video seems to increase alpha wave activity and boost wellbeing.
I'm lucky to be able to enjoy these amazing Redwoods with my morning coffee. #brainhealthy #Norwich

@thersaorg.bsky.social Thank you for a valuable meeting of Global Fellows this morning. Some fascinating conversations emphasising the need to collaborate, share ideas, escape silos, apply robust science and optimise inclusion at every stage. I feel this is needed more than ever right now.

I brought a Flow Neuroscience device to an event yesterday. I was giving a keynote and asked how many of the 200 ish audience had tried neurotech. Two hands up. Interesting. Anyone here tried anything? Neurofeedback? Neuro modulation? I'd love your thoughts.

How can we help people's brains adapt to Gen AI? What key skills do we need? Analytical thinking and creativity are numbers 1 &2 according to the @wef.bsky.social 's Future of Work. 🧠💡 Cognitive skills come before AI skills - topic of my Keynote for AWS & Ubertas

What a joy it was to meet so many business leaders focused on improving #EDI and a privilege to be able to bring a neuroscience perspective to the panel.

Wonderful opportunities to create more brain-healthy organisations 🧠😊

🧠 Did I take #braintraining #neurotech to show 130 business leaders at the Pro-Manchester EDI Lunch?

Who could resist? "Who has tried neurofeedback?" Zero hands up but a queue of eager people! 🧠🤩
Are hashtags a thing here? #AllBrainsIncluded! #Brainhealth #EDI #Neuroinclusion #neurodiversity
