Could your everyday habits be affecting your brain? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We have spent the past few weeks talking about memory, dementia, Alzheimer’s disease and why recognising changes early matters. But as Alzheimer’s Month comes to a close, perhaps there is another question we should ask ourselves: What are we doing for our brains while we are still healthy? When we talk about our health, we often think about our heart, our blood pressure, our blood sugar, our weight and other parts of the body. We worry when our blood pressure is high, we check our blood sugar, w
It’s Not Just Forgetfulness: When should we really worry about memory? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Have you ever walked into a room and suddenly forgotten why you went there? Or picked up your phone to call someone, only to forget who you wanted to call? Perhaps you searched everywhere for your glasses, only to discover that they were sitting right on your head. Then you laughed at yourself and said, “Ah, this memory of mine!” These things happen to all of us.

Have you ever had one of those days when everything seemed to be going perfectly, until one little thing went wrong and suddenly you felt like the entire day was ruined?

WE have been exploring the fascinating ways our minds can sometimes lead us to conclusions before we have all the facts. We have seen how we can assume we know what someone else is thinking, and how easily our minds can turn uncertainty into certainty. But there is another thinking trap that many of us fall into, often without realising it. Sometimes, we do not just assume we know what someone else is thinking; we convince ourselves that we already know what is going to happen next. Have you eve
When You think you know what others are thinking (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We have been exploring the fascinating ways our minds can sometimes lead us astray. We have seen how overthinking can keep us trapped in a cycle of repetitive thoughts, and how catastrophising can take a simple situation and turn it into the worst possible outcome. But there is another way our minds can create stories for us: sometimes, we convince ourselves that we know what other people are thinking or feeling, even when they have never actually told us. This is known as mind reading, and it i
