Casual discussions surrounding major psychology topics from a social and scientific approach - let's get as much fact and ideas as we can everyone!

We discuss our perspectives, listen to others and process these together in a way that makes sense. This is what forms our beliefs on both conscious and unconscious levels so our quality of information is important.

Discussions include Psychology theories, developmental Psychology, Sociology, Social Sciences, Critical thinking in application to Psychological contexts, Counselling & Psychotherapy, Organisational Psychology, Evolutionary Psychology, Mental Health, Relationships, Politics and more. Anything that impacts on our thoughts, behaviour and perception.

We are products of information, therefore this group is an important body of information that is the people that belong to and attend the group sharing ideas and thoughts on topics about people.

Because the quality of people and content involved in our conversations is of great value, we provide a website where you can listen to these conversations at your leisure [url=http://toxnet.ath.cx/meetup/]Live recordings[/url]

There is no more important goal than the cultivation of critical thinking. This is true because thoughts don’t just sit in human minds, they have implications. When we act, we do so based on our beliefs. The question then is – what are we thinking, and how are we acting as a result of that thinking? What is the quality of our thinking? Where is it leading us?
It is critical thinking that allows us to take command of the thinking we are doing so as to improve our teaching, our work, our relationships.

Bringing these thoughts and knowledge together in a friendly discussion can be very stimulating and enlightning so we encourage you to come along with the assurance we aspire to be non judgemental, accepting and welcoming to everyone. The only exceptions to this are people trying to sell things.

You are welcome to join us as observer or participant.
