@ShaneAKAProp @ABridgen Great question! Answer awaited….

Our worries and fears often leave us sad and stressed. Nature can have an amazingly calming effect because nature helps us feel calmer, more optimistic and a walk in nature is a great way of coping with stress. But don’t take my word for it. Try it!

Conspiracy theories are everywhere and people don't understand how harmful they are.

I made the original Conspiracy Chart over a year ago. An update was long overdue. This is the 2021 version.

I've just emailed my MP with @Rethink_ to tell them that vital mental health funding must be protected. Will you do the same? https://t.co/ZqoBn9xOi2

Anger destabilises the mind. And the consequences of anger far outweigh the causes. So it’s good to learn of recent research on angry exchanges between couples that even a five second break during a row can diminish anger.

Think of something in your life you want to improve, ask yourself what you would need to do to make that happen — and take a step in the right direction.

@Womens_Aid Please write to your TD to get judge Tom O’Donnell removed. Outrageous doesn’t begin to describe the appalling response by this inept pathetic joke of a judge.

Are you stuck? Most of the time we *wish* for an outcome. But —big BUT—if we are honest with ourselves, our actions don’t take us far.

If we would just DO something that takes us closer to our goal, we will get something that starts to look like the outcome we wish for.

It’s relentless. Life's challenges And obstacles. Add in our inbuilt fear of change to the mix and it’s difficult to survive, let alone live a life well-lived.
Take a moment to look back to times when we DID overcome adversity will help remind us we are stronger than we think.
