The Mind, Explained

Without too much fluff and with a sober scientific approach, they are nailing it imo. But there is still a lot of subjects not covered, please give me another season!

The first three episodes were really interesting, and covered a good range of fascinating material. The episode on mindfulness wasn't bad, but relied more on practitioners and less on objective facts. But then, the episode on hallucinogens really pulled the series down. It relied on scant facts to pull together a case for further investigation into hallucinogens. Perhaps there's a case for this, but it didn't fit well into a series based much more on science and the mind in the natural world. There are so many aspects of the mind which could have been explored. This last episode also took away from some of what had been presented in the Mindfulness episode.

It covers topics such as memory, dreams, anxiety, psychedelics and more. It had in detail, but made simple for the audience to understand the concept. Furthermore, it has 5 episodes with 20 minutes. All relate to the idea of good health and wellbeing.

Really interesting documentary it covers topics such as memory, dreams, anxiety, psychedelics and more. Ive seen 2 episodes so far hopefully the rest of the season is just as good

In an age in which the attention span of the consumer is constantly divided between a variety of devices and distractions, "The Mind, Explained" stands out as a great example of the new way to take on information.

Basic, surface level information - perhaps. But enough to be well worth the short time it asks.
