OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Mental imagery has a powerful effect on our emotions. Troubling mental images, such as bad memories from the past, fearful ‘flashforwards’ and negative images of the self can have an impact on our mental health and our sense of self. How we understand and cope with mental images forms part of how many psychological disorders develop and are maintained.
In this talk, Hannah Murray will explore the different ways that negative mental images can affect us. Using insights from clinical practice and research, she will describe how images can be addressed as part of psychological therapy and how, in our day-to-day lives, we can transform our own troubling mental images.
A Q&A will follow, chaired by Cathy Creswell.
This talk will be recorded and can be accessed via our YouTube channel at bit.ly/2VTSDNT.
