    Practical steps to dealing with the mental load women carry.

    Women carry most of the mental load at home, the remembering, planning, organizing, and anticipating everyone else's needs. For years, Sociologist Dr Leah Ruppanner from the University of Melbourne has researched the invisible work that keeps family life running. She says the endless to-do list is not the heaviest part, it's the emotional thinking and constant effort to make sure everyone is happy and able to follow their dreams that takes its toll. Dr Ruppanner helps women understand where their time and attention is really going and offers practical ways to ease the constant pressure in her new book, Drained: Reduce Your Mental Load To Do Less And Be More.

    Expert: What are phantom sensations and why do we have them?

    Earlier this year we were joined by University of Auckland cognitive neuroscientist Professor Paul Corballis. He answered your questions on perception and how our brains work, which is such a big subject we barely scratched the surface in that session. So we've invited him back, but this time the focus is on phantom sensations .. like why amputees feel pain, and why we sometimes feel out phone vibrate in our pocket, even when it's not there. Get your questions in to 2101 or Jesse@rnz.co.nz

    How do you make sure it is safe to be in the water?

    The World Surf League's New Zealand Pro event in Raglan was put on hold this morning after a photographer was attacked while in the water. The photographer is okay, they're reported to be in "good spirits" and is being treated for small puncture wounds at the hospital. We wanted to learn a bit more about the conditions in Raglan and how safe it is to go in the water, so Jese is joined by environmental scientist and eCoast managing director Dr Shaw Mead.
