       This is one of my favourite recent papers (to give you a sense of how I think). Theories about #mental #health tend to be very neurocentric - however, if we define #cognition as follows: "Cognition is thus first and foremost a process geared to sustain and maintain the physico-, biochemical-, and bioelectrical processes that constitute a biological self-organising organism".Why would such an important process require neuronal cells alone? This paper by Anna Ciaunica and Michael Levin describes how "The Brain Is Not Mental!" https://psyarxiv.com/fgcy5#mind #philosophy #mentalhealth
