The weather doesn’t just change our plans – it changes our state of mind!
We might glance at the forecast every morning, but the true impact of our most universal obsession goes far deeper than influencing our daily itineraries. The weather is the silent architect of the human psyche; it doesn’t just determine what we wear – it shapes how we think, feel and treat one another.
Weaving together groundbreaking research and his own deeply personal mental health journey, Professor Trevor Harley explores the invisible alchemy between the elements and our minds. From uncovering our unique 'weather personalities' to exploring how heatwaves trigger aggression, negative ions from thunderstorm relieve depression and rainbows inspire awe, Head in the Clouds reveals the astonishing effects of the weather on our psychology, mental health and behaviour.
Whether you want to enhance your wellbeing, navigate conditions like seasonal affective disorder, or more fully appreciate the intimate connection between the human mind and the natural world, Head in the Clouds offers a radical new perspective. Discover how understanding the influence of the elements can empower you, turning the simple act of observing the skies into a valuable toolkit for mindfulness, acceptance and everyday joy – whatever the weather.
Professor Trevor Harley is Professor Emeritus of Psychology at the University of Dundee, with a special interest in the weather who is often called upon to speak about the connection between weather and human behaviour in the media. He is the author of several academic books including The Psychology of Weather (Routledge 2018; there is more on this title below); his books have been translated into several languages.
