La medicina está rota. Nos gusta imaginar que se basa en pruebas y los resultados de pruebas justas. En realidad, esas pruebas a menudo tienen profundas fallas. Nos gusta imaginar que los médicos están familiarizados con la literatura de investigación que rodea a un medicamento, cuando en realidad gran parte de la investigación les está oculta por las compañías farmacéuticas. Nos gusta imaginar que los médicos son educados imparcialmente2020-09-2618 min

Life is a Festival#67 - Skeptical Thinking for Spiritual People | Anna Zakrisson (Doctor Anna's Imaginarium)Is it possible to have a mystical mindset without getting lost in magical thinking? Or worse, getting hijacked by harmful fantasies?
In the chaos of coronavirus, I’ve noticed an increasing deficit of critical thinking within conscious communities. With an upswell in conspiracy theories and lack of good sensemaking on social media, I asked Dr. Anna Zakrisson of the Swedish Skeptics Association to help us think about thinking in this confusing time.
On the podcast, we discuss how to notice and own the emotional triggers that hijack our deeper thinking. We talk about how not to be manipulated by our pe...2020-05-212h 05

We start by chatting how we are raised to believe periods should be painful, so we don’t question it, and also how we should simply be the same everyday despite our cycle. We discuss how buying Paracetamol feels more accep...2020-04-1053 min
