		<description><![CDATA[Your mood effects the way you react, of course it does. If you&#8217;re sad you&#8217;re generally less motivated, less interested, more introspective. If you&#8217;re happy you&#8217;re usually more extroverted, more inquisitive, less lethargic. But what actually determines your mood? Sometimes this is obvious. Your pet just died, you just won the lottery, your just got [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[B.F. Skinner was a behaviourist. He studied psychology, animals and humans, and he figured out that animals act mostly through reflex, and furthermore that those reflexes can be altered through associative learning. If you ring a bell every time you feed a dog, the dog will start to salivate at the sound of the bell. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last week we talked about reflex action, and helped you to develop techniques which enable you to practice not giving in to that reflex. Techniques to help you notice when you&#8217;re not thinking and slow down enough to think. This week, you will learn how to undo unprofitable reflexes, retrain yourself to automatically take the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last week we talked about sentience. The ability for an organism to feel, to direct it&#8217;s attention towards a thing and thus improve it&#8217;s neural model of that thing. This works in ways which are far too complicated for science to have yet explained. However, we do know more or less how neurons in the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Levels Of Consciousness Knowing about reflex, and having learned about sentience and sapience it will be tempting to build a tower of consciousness. At level zero, no consciousness at all. The consciousness of a rock. It has no chemical receptors, no light receptors, it behaves as an inert object. At level one, reflex action.

		<description><![CDATA[No doubt you&#8217;ll have heard the word psychosomatic, a word mostly used to describe physical illnesses brought about by the psyche. Depression resulting in persistent infection, hysteria resulting in blindness, constant stress or fear resulting in physical symptoms. The word is, of course, constructed from two parts: Psycho and Somatic. &#8220;Soma&#8221; from the ancient Greek [...]]]></description>
