Remembering you're now in the driving seat can be a really helpful way to look at previously difficult relationships when you're an adult.

I also like the ACT passengers on a bus metaphor for dealing with critical inner voices. They can say what they like (and they will!) but you're the one driving the bus so you get to choose your own route regardless! 🚌

I’ve found what can really help is reframing the angry, self-critical inner shout of “why the fuck can’t you just do this/what the hell is wrong with you?” as a curious compassionate question. Turning into a genuine,caring, solution seeking “what’s the matter/why are you currently unable to do X?”

Today I'm remembering Dawn on the second anniversary of her death. Beautiful roses for a blooming lovely sister in law ♥️

I just feel you really need to experience aging and decrepitude (in spite of everything) to really 'get' it. You can't put an old head on young shoulders. Although nor should we want to (most of the time 😂) I bet you were a great teacher!

I really like Charlie's yoga but I am glad I started with Adriene. I think when she's 50 she'll understand better 😂

Yes, discretion always the better part of valour when it comes to understanding our bodies. Frustrating sometimes, but definitely worth it in the longer run. Hope your back starts behaving itself again soon. I'm going to have to monitor my fatigue carefully 🙄

It's good to share knowledge. The woman said their advisor would come out and advise what order to do things in and which things would work best for us etc. They are a not for profit so I felt reassured.

Just wanted to say that I really like the Monday reads. It's rare I don't get a book from them. Just put in a reservation for Anthony Horowitz seen via your reposts. Hope your week turns into something rewarding.

Had hoped this cold would be slinging its hook by today but no. I don't want to but I'm going to do ten minutes of very gentle yoga.

Leeds Baby Bank, which supports families with young children living in v difficult situations, was broken into recently and had IT equipment stolen. It’ll cost a lot to replace and, in the meantime, it’s hard for them to operate If you have a few quid to spare: www.leedsbabybank.org/donate-money/

Absolutely 🤞. Worth it for health and also finance. You are lucky to have had a wake up call. Mine was repeated episodes of bronchitis in my early 20s, which has never troubled me since. My uncle died of lung cancer yesterday and my sister in law, aged 58, in 2024.
