@charlie_psych Perfectly put. And I like the way Deb Dana talks about having enough regulating energy in the nervous system to come into that connection with other- we are biological programmed for compassionate connection

[Manda Scott @MandaMScott]

@brigidrussell51 @charlie_psych @practicematters I wonder if folks are subconsciously afraid to slow down, as without the adrenaline and cortisol , we come to face our deeper cultural, intergenerational, & personal woundedness?

@mindfulnessA I couldn’t even think what the D word was there 😂 I was like , Demons? 🫤 Denial??

@LifeAfloat Healing vibes from Holy Isle 🙏🏻 waiting on the ferryman to get across and wishing you a speedy recovery

[Manda Scott @MandaMScott]

@annamfleming @UKClimbing Ah! She was such an Icon for me ❤️

[Manda Scott @MandaMScott]

@HI_Voices Ach a Muileach here so obviously that’s no 1 but living near Tarbert Loch Fyne (which is practically an island) and love Gigha for a day out. Today I am going to Arran and tomorrow Holy Isle for 2 weeks, or Eilean MoLaise, that’s my 2nd fav 😍

[Manda Scott @MandaMScott]

@guygrieve I know, it’s rubbish. Also seeing those who can’t afford Cornwall ‘having’ to buy here coz it’s cheaper bt hate the weather?! Unsure how that impacts the local culture, being 2nd choice 🧐

@pmorganbentley What have we become? Where has our humanity and compassion gone?

Follow the science #selfcare

[Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D. @hubermanlab]

The science says:
-Meditation improve focus
-Breathwork reduces stress
-Non Sleep Deep Rest (NSDR) restores energy
-Self directed hypnosis can solve specific problems

Most of the tested protocols are only 5-10min per day & lead to persistent effects.
