September is a busy month, so my treadmill runs feel even more important for my mental health. I’m so grateful to all the YouTubers, who record their runs, so that I can run around the world (especially Hawaii). Happy Aloha Friday everyone 🤙😃🧠💪🏃‍♂️🏝️

Sign up to walk, cycle, dance or stretch this June for hospice care and people like Eric. Eric has Multiple System Atrophy - a rare neurological disorder that affects movement, balance and bodily functions, which, as an artistic individual, mean he’s had to find new ways to express creativity.

Hospices provide dignity and comfort at the end of life, and vital support for families and loved ones. But they wouldn’t exist without people like you. Leave a gift in your Will to a hospice close to your heart and help protect the future of hospice care. www.thisishospicecare.org.uk

Hospices are on the brink. Surging costs have led to many services being cut back – just as demand is rising, fast, because of our ageing population. The situation is not sustainable – and time is running out. [1/2]

Hospice care is more than you think. From wards to homes, hospices support people at the end of life every day. But rising demand and soaring costs mean services are at risk. Will you ask your MP to help? It only takes 30 seconds 👇 action.hospiceuk.org/hospice-care...

“Culture and strategy must be woven together to make a single basket.” This resonates strongly with me rn as we bring refreshed people and culture plans. A more intentional approach to culture will shape how we work, so we can deliver our strategy, make a difference. (Owen Eastwood Belonging 2021)

Dying for Beginners | Dr Kathryn Mannix
In modern British society, death is out of sight and behind closed doors. Many of us lack direct exposure to the dying process - with all sorts of potential emotional and spiritual consequences for how we grieve our loved ones, as well as how we prepare for our own deaths. What does the dying process actually look like? A short animation by Emily Downe, and voiced by Dr Kathryn Mannix which guides you gently on a step by step journey through the process of dying. Acclaimed author, speaker and former palliative care physician Dr Kathryn Mannix has spent her medical career working with people who have incurable, advanced illnesses. The author of two Sunday Times Bestsellers – With The End in Mind and Listen, Dr Mannix is on a mission to reclaim the public’s understanding of dying. CREDITS Written and voiced by Dr Kathryn Mannix Directed and designed by Emily Downe Animated by Martha Halliday Music and sound by Jan Willem de With Produced by Theos with thanks to The Fetzer institute Find out more about Theos' work in the area of death, dying and the afterlife here: https://www.theosthinktank.co.uk/dying-for-beginners-theos-work-on-death-dying-and-the-afterlife ***** Like what you see?
