Can’t Sleep Because Your Body Feels Tense? Try This Gentle Tapping Exercise

Struggle to sleep at night because of stress and tension?

Maybe this will help: youtu.be/q2kpHuB0ESU?...

I don't think you should be afraid - just know that it won't match the book - because what movie ever did match the book? The writing is what makes a book and a movie can never convey all those words - and will never match your mental construction from those words.

I loved the pace of the movie (slow). I enjoyed the book more though, the writing was exquisite, at that just isn't there in the movie.

I can't speak for him but I'd say from what I observed that he always wanted to be a political journalist at the very least.

that's a matter of opinion. He's done very well for himself, for a boy from the Yorkshire Dales.

I was a committee member, then Treasurer of the Cambridge Union Society so saw it all unfolding. I never heard Chris express a political opinion. He was just observing, meeting people, building relationships.

I'm not in touch with either of them anymore.

I was also at Cambridge at the same time as both of them and knew them both. Chris was in my year studying geography. Chris went to all the political events he could get his hands on - he was already very clearly networking and ambitious. He was also a journalist on university outlets.

maybe they could send them to Tory HQ as the Tories created this mess in the first place.

And, more teachers will leave the profession if they're left trying to do the impossible and educate children who need more support than one person at the front of the class.

Manufacturing is a secondary industry. Primary industries create/take raw materials e.g. farming, forestry, mining.

there's a big difference between comfortable and rich. I wouldn't put Β£80-Β£100k as rich, but comfortable. It also depends on your circumstances - how many dependents do you have, what's the cost of living where you live, what assets do you have. Income is only one part of the picture.
