This feels like another step towards considering neurodiversity (alongside biodiversity) as the lens through which we read the world 🙏🏻
In 21 papers across Science, @ScienceAdvances, and @ScienceTM, researchers with the #BICCN consortium present an atlas of the human and nonhuman primate brain in unprecedented detail. The results uncover the genetic organization of the human brain. scim.ag/4ro

The autistic urge to not register red flags as red flags because you’re so used to people misinterpreting your harmless behaviours and you don’t want to do that to anyone else, so you go *overboard* trying to find acceptable explanations for other people’s unacceptable behaviour.

"The gap between knowing what you want and going after it is where fear thrives. You don’t need enough courage for the entire journey. You only need courage for the next step." A tiny thought in the @farnamstreet newsletter fs.blog/brain-food/august-6-…

The longer the time frame for results, the less you need intensity and the more you need consistency. Consistency is doing it when you don’t feel like doing it. If you want advantageous divergence, you have to do the things that matter on your best day and your worst day.

Scientists have found evidence that those who cultivate love and compassion have greater peace of mind, while constant anger and fear make us uneasy and are bad for health. Common sense too tells us that people who are moved by love and compassion are peaceful and happy.

You will not know if you’re strong enough to do what you need to do, until you try. If it doesn’t work out, you have more information to plan your next move. What an empowering discovery your strength could be. #365daysofcompassion #MentalHeath
