This very special TED Talks video is by vulnerability researcher Brene Brown. It has been viewed over 17million times. For good reason - she makes awesome sense. Brene also has a website with loads of related stuff: http://brenebrown.com including details about her books on daring greatly,  the gifts of imperfection etc. I relisten to her talk when I need to take care and am a bit stuck. There is also a great interview on scarcity on ABC One Plus One http://www.abc.net.au/news/2013-08-23/one-plus-one-brene-brown/4908892

Ps: if you haven't already discovered TED Talks, go to their website, some amazing speaking - inspiring (http://www.ted.com/talks)

I went to a Russ Harris workshop, seriously useful stuff. His book, the Happiness Trap provides such a useful framework for managing life's challenges. The whole ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy) thing  provided me with a way of sitting with difficult emotions, rather than fusing or try to push away:  "I shouldn't be feeling like this". Awesome job Russ. Links below - the first website has a stack of free stuff. Also a youtube video of a presentation Russ gave on The Art of Acceptance. Worth looking past the poor quality of recording - its powerful stuff.

I discovered this music through a colleague. It has been declared the world's most relaxing music. This youtube has been viewed almost four million times. I listen to it when I need to relax. I listen to it before I go to bed. Listening to this music has definitely been taking care of myself. 

My tele died when we switched to digital. I am kind of loving not having one. I used to turn it on sometimes, as a kind of habit. My life is quieter without it. Hooray.
